Also, if the distrib has a fairly new lspci(), running 'lspci -nnv' will show you what hardware you have and (often) which drivers are operating the hardware. The 'nn' shows the vendor and device IDs which you can use to peruse the driver source to determine whcih driver supports the device. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
