I seem to have purchased a Matrox Meteor frame grabber card that
reports a different vendor number than the one for which the drivers
were written.
It doesn't appear to be a problem, though. I added a case to the
meteor probe, and (now that a driver is assigned to the card) all
appears to work well.
Here's the diff -c to show what my changes were:
*** /sys/pci/meteor.c Wed Nov 8 19:15:43 1995
--- /sys/pci/meteor.c.new Wed Nov 8 14:33:05 1995
***************
*** 445,450 ****
--- 445,451 ----
switch (type) {
case 0x12238086ul: /* meteor */
+ case 0x12230086ul: /* new meteor ? */ /*Paco*/
return ("Matrox Meteor");
};
Perhaps someone would like to add those eventually. I don't think
there are any significant differences between my card and the one used
by previous developers. If I find any, you'll be the first to know.
Thanks,
Paco
