Yes. I have a Tekram DC-390F which is based on the same chip. Works
beautifully. The driver for it is already in the GENERIC kernel (ncr0). Just
plug the card in, attach some devices, and away you go. By the way, what is
the in-BIOS setup on that Diamond card like? The one in this Tekram is rather
nice, since it lets me tweak quite a few settings on both a card and per-device
basis. Apparently the generic Symbios BIOSes do not do this.
