Without access to the hardware, it's awfully hard for anyone to
support a given card. Perhaps you could buy this card and either
support it? (Shouldn't take much, presuming the chip is already
supported, it'd just be getting NetBSD to attach it on the nubus
chain.)

Unrelatedly, in the future could you maybe wrap the text of your
emails somewhere around 80 columns? It makes it much easier to read
for those of us using some kind of tty-based email software.
