Thanks again to Michel Lanners [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the clue about PCI buses.
Indeed, that fix appears to be in the Debian distribution of 2.4.1 (PPC).
That also fixed my problem with the AHA-2940/AW (aka Adaptec AIC-7881U).
But, alas, 'xserver-xfree86' was too unstable for my poor ix3D, messing
Michel, thanks for you kind assistance.
The problem is with the Linux kernel PCI code. It only scans the first
PCI host bridge, but your box has two of those (two 'bandit' bridges).
If you need Linux to access devices on the second bus, have a look at
the PCI patches here:
Hi,
On 19 Feb, this message from Tovar echoed through cyberspace:
Here's the whole bus, or, at least all of PCI bus that 2.2.18 vanilla can
find:
# lspci -v

03)

'lspci' and/or LINUX only seems to

Regarding the S3 card, I supose this is a PC-type card? Then you might
want to ask on the linuxppc-dev list or search the archives thereof (see

What graphics chip does it have? If you don't know, please post the output
of
'lspci|grep VGA'.

I have a PowerMac 9500 with an XLR8 400 MHz G3, 384 mgs RAM, IXMicro video
card and an Adaptec wide-SCSI card, which i have up and running LINUX with
several annoying glitches.
* The ix3D card only seems to work in Mac frame buffer mode and thus
cannot change resolution. My vision is such

handle the AHA-2940 (or whatever) properly?
you can have quik run a OpenFirmware
