They're basically PCI drivers and so they should work, except maybe for some details about shutdown. Most of those cards use OHCI, and recent ones all add EHCI (USB 2.0) support too. You may need to get more recent versions of these drivers. 2.5.29 has fixes to make such cards work relatively nicely in those rude shutdown cases, but you probably want to wait for a later kernel (that one's a bit iffy for me). The latest 2.4.19 stuff may be a bit better than earlier code, but if you're using ehci there you may want a patch. - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
