AFAIK it depends on your CPU ID and/or cache settings. See the release notes for our latest kernel images: http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?group_id=10972&release_id=378292 > Also, is there any distribution that people HAVE gotten to install on the > Sonnet cards?

Petr managed to get this G3-sonnet-equipped PB1400 to work. He said that the kernel from 10th September did work. (However I don't know which one is that) However his cpuinfo output still lists the 117 MHz :) http://www.petrvz.net/pages/mac/pb1400cs.php Cheers, Florian |
