I have a P133 with the Adaptec 2940 PCI card.. Use the DEX45
driver -- I think you may have to modify the Config.in file
to get the selection (?)...
I don't recall everything on the topic. There has been
a lot of discussion about it over the past couple of months.
You may want to check the archives for more detailed info.
Let me know if you need any more help and I'll be more
specific .. (via e-mail, not the list)..
