OK. So what alternative solution would you suggest to make this driver work?

What version of the driver do you use. If it really come from the driver and if 
this is the last official driver, then ask the writer of the driver to correct.
If no correction are done quickly by the writer of the driver, then yes, you 
may just produce a warning.
