How are you getting the pwc module? Does it come with your kernel, or
are you downloading and compiling the module from saillard.org?

If it comes with your kernel, they may be using the kernel PWC driver,
which, apparently, doesn't work at all.  The 10.0.7a driver from
saillard.org should be used.
