It is odd because the kernel reports it as "88SE9123" the web page says it 
is "88SE9128" as does the manual supplied with the card. Now the 
motherboard already has an onboard  Marvell "88SE9128" controller which is 
correctly identified by the kernel and works properly so I know the 
correct divers are in the kernel but the Startech card does not seem to be 
using them.
