Uhm, found it....

I needed to prefix the BusIDs with "PCI:"... The really bad thing is 
that I understood that from reading the patch a couple of weeks ago, 
but seeing it blow up in my face erased it from my mind, and so I went 
around screaming in terror instead of trying to use my brain... :-) 
That's life I guess... 

But since I didn't have that before, and it worked, it is perhaps a 
Debian-specific note for the HOWTO? 

Also, I'm running on two different cards, which means, I shouldn't use 
SingleCard, right? 

Cheers,

Kjetil
