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.
