Hi, I'm trying to install this driver (Raspberry Pi5, Raspberry pi OS, this PCIe card https://52pi.com/products/p02-pcie-slot-for-rpi5 )

TBS card is the 6902 connected directly to the pcie on the p02 card

Driver compiles and appears to install however dmesg | grep frontend has no results. Hope you can help.
