The documentation just describes it >as "Future Domain"...no model. I've got this same card working under Linux (just the SCSI, not the sound part). It is the TMC 8xx/950 series bus. It is an 8-bit bus with no BIOS. I had to append a memory location/interupt statement to the linux boot command line to get it to recognize the card because of the no BIOS. I just got Linux going a couple of days ago. I will experiment with the Sound Blaster compatibility, but the SCSI bus for the CD works fine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Steve Stolle shstolle1@mmm.com shstolle@mmm.com sstolle@primenet.com http://www.primenet.com/~sstolle/index.html Opinions expressed herein are my own and may not represent those of my employer.
