This is what my var/log/messages say

Mar 10 11:09:20 pradeep_linux_lap kernel: Loaded prism54 driver, version
1.0.2.2
Mar 10 11:09:20 pradeep_linux_lap kernel: PCI: No IRQ known for
interrupt pin A of device 02:00.0. Please try using pci=3Dbiosirq.

Btw: The card has a label saying its prism duette.

Check your kernel messages ("dmesg" command or "tail /var/log/messages")

to see what happened when you tried to load it.

BTW, do you really have a Duette?  That card is a GT I believe.
