I'd imagine it would be of a similar vintage to the latest Linux driver, so= it=20 should support newer cards like that. The linux driver is at 61.06, the win32 driver 61.77. The notes for the lin= ux=20 driver say it adds support for the 6800, so I imagine the 5700 is supported. =2D --=20 Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C =2D----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBDzNq5ZPcIHs/zowRAmG5AJ9Dnr4kD8XdA9DBeChiDx/JCKv5OgCgoTN6 u15HzCEfI396v1yjHFeQC6E=3D =3DonQX =2D----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
