Re: Status of Grex, Predator, Prometheus and Mediator support?

[Adam K. <ako...@co...>]

Andreas,

I've just got my Prometheus/Voodoo 3 card working with a 2.4.x kernel today,
but there are still some things I need to work out as 2.4.x has more
features related to PCI than did 2.2.x.  To be honest, I spent more time
getting a working 2.4.x system than anything else ;)  I've just spent the
last 3 days getting my Prometheus driver switched over to the 2.4.x stuff.
