Hello
I have a friend that his Msc project is related with the development
over a PCI-X card. the problem is that he do not know if the Linux
kernel support the PCI-X bus. i try to find something related with the
PCI-X in the kernel source but i didn't found any file or folder with a
relevant name... Does any one know if PCI-X bus supported from Linux and
if no how can he patch the kernel to support it...?
Thanks
Chris
Sure PCI-X is just PCI/66 with 64-bits. It's just like PCI/66
from a software standpoint.
