What HCA are you using?  What firmware version?  The mt23108 driver currently
only supports HCA with memory in Tavor compatibility mode.  Memfree and Arbel
native mode are not currently supported.

I updated the FAQ to be clearer (I hope!) about what editions are supported.
Development is primarily done on Windows 2003 with SP1, focusing, in order of
priority, on x64, x86, and Itanium 2 processor architectures.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,
