WD33C93? Didn't know that anything else but Amigas uses
these chips. Dunno if David has added support for this chip
but this will be easy, if not because it's already supported
for Linux/68k.
You should see the look on the IRIX kernel engineer's faces when I
told them this was the SCSI chipset used by AMIGA's ;-) Of course
there is a driver already ;-)
Otherwise I think with this machine you're in the Linux race.
(David, correct me if I tell wrong things ...)
THe 8-bit video he has in the only issue. I have only written a
driver for the 24-bit INDY video card which is what is in my test box
right now. I'll get a hold of an 8-bit card and fix this particular
problem.
Perhaps around mid-august something people can play around with on
INDY's will be available.
