Sujal Patel sent this to the multimedia mailling list on Dec 29 1996: --- quoted ---- The card should work just fine. There are several things to note though: 1 - If you have a PnP bios, you don't need to use my PnP driver. If you don't use the driver though, you need to "guess" where the BIOS configured your card :-) There is sample code to read the PnP BIOS's configuration in ~smpatel/public_html/pnpget* (I haven't had time to clean this up yet). 2 - If you don't have a PnP bios then you can just use my driver and everything will just work fine. 3 - If you have an ASUS motherboard, your BIOS must be up-to-date (i.e. support the latest PnP spec). You can easily grab a new BIOS from their site and flash it. Sujal PS: The PnP driver is available at http://www.freebsd.org/~smpatel/ --- end quoted ----
