Err, no it won't. At least not on alpha -- this is an EISA card. Does mlx have an EISA attachment these days? > Is it just me, or is this the EV5 version of the 2100, not the EV4 that > you were working on, Drew? Well, Timothy First from MSU loaned me his EV5 2100A (3 250MHz CPUs), so we should work on both EV4 and EV5 2100As in 4.3-RELEASE, as well as the well-tested EV4 2100. But I'm not sure anybody has tested an EV5 2100 (note the lack of an "A"). I think this will probably require me building test kernels & interacting heavily with Ardelean Gheorghe, unless it turns out to be a hardware problem.
