     Thx a lot. But, I prefer to wait for the next kernel to see what 
happens. Compiling a kernel takes a long time and I do not have much 
experience on doing that...
     Ant if I go to experimental I am afraid of mixing up my debian and 
breaking it.
     I'd like to know how to use the windows drive, at least until the 
new kernel support my card. But, I know that this is not a fixing-linux 
way...
