- Hm, well, it's on-board, and I have no card to replace it. I suppose
- a wider test audience might show if I have a hardware problem or not.
Any chance of sharing the preliminary patches? I've got
a couple of Dell's (a 2450 and a 2500) sitting here with on-board
7899's, and an Intel ISP2150 with an onboard 7896. I've kinda put
it on my queue to do the update as well...
