Yes, and to the specifics of the question, Livna's write up is excellent and 
easy to understand. The drivers work well. And the process of keeping them 
updated through various kernel upgrades is clearly explained; and, even more 
to the point, they deliver. Usually within hours of a kernel release, they 
have the new kernel-module up on their repo.
