Have you tried Intels web site. They have a lot of documents online.
If its not there, im sure there will be contact information.
You could also see if there is a Linux/BSD/Darwin/FreeBSD/... driver
anywhere. Be carefull of licence issues. You should not use GPL code
if you want to contribute it, bit its OK to look at such code...
