In my 233 MHz G3 MT running 8.6 is a working two-port USB card; how do 
I tell which version it is?

Free Radical running 10.3.8 and 9.2.1 on Powerbook G4 @ 400 MHz.

You might check System Profiler/devices and volumes.  It may tell you right
there or give you a product id that would let you check on the web.

As others have responded.  2.1  doesn't work in pre X  operating systems; nno
drivers are available.  As far as I know and have experienced, it doesn't work
properly on a Beige in X either.   It is true that usb 2 cards are backwards
compatible and will work in pre X operating systems as usb 1 no matter what you
plug into it.  However, if you have a usb 2 gadget plugged into the usb 2 port
while running X on a Beige, you might have problems.  And I'm not sure there is
a way to force a usb 2 card to run only as usb 1 in os X.  This has hung me up
on occasion.

Hope this helps.
