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: http://www.cpu.lu/~mlan/linux/dev/pci.html That will not, however, help to get the ixMicro card to work... 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 lists.linuxppc.org) for somebody who has this type of card working via an i386 emulator to actually run and execute the BIOS that's present on the card. I don't remember who that was, off the top of my head... Cheers Michel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michel Lanners | " Read Philosophy.
