I've tested it with 4.9 and 5.2.1 on = a Supermicro P4SGE motherboard and would be grateful for any = suggestions, comments, bug reports, or complaints! :) If there is = sufficient interest (and once I've gotten some comment on the structure = and inner workings of this driver), I'd also like to write a driver for = the AMD-8000 series chipset.
