There is a listing in linux of all device ids and it is a project to keep it up to date http://pciids.sourceforge.net Gentoo, Mandrake, and the rest can use that and something similar is available for usb. This is ISA. NO pnp, and no interrupt from what I can see. Switches on the boards - we are back that far. This thing looks like it was designed in the eighties, released initially in the early nineties, and was going obsolete when the original owners of this bought it in 1999. The new model replaced it next year (pci bus, 48 channels per driver card, high spec pc, etc.) In fact I have relaxed a little, because if I remove the card, it immediately complains "Pinpoint Hardware not found". It _is_ quick on the uptake :-). We presume the intermittent fault is not on all 3 driver cards, so it isn't talking to or listening from the 15V section. /Hit by bolt of lightning There used to be something like it in Norton's sysinfo..... the _old_ version (6.0). I'll try that, if I still have that... -- With best Regards, Declan Moriarty. -- Author: Declan Moriarty INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Hosting, San Diego, California -- http://www.fatcity.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB CHIPDIR-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
