Re: Sarge and supported chipsets
Hi Miguel,
Thanks - but I'm a big confused. I used to have a Woody installation -
in my dmesg for that it listed drivers for Highpoint and for Promise
even though I didn't have the card installed; now in my Sarge/2.6
installation my dmesg doesn't list any Hpt or Promise drivers.
Why the difference?
Jim.
