ping for: http://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2009-June/072678.html This patch adds support for GXT4000P and GXT6500P cards found on some IBM pSeries machines. GXT4000P/6000P and GXT4500P/6500P couples are identical from software's point of view and are based on the same Raster Engine (RC1000), except for a different reference clock for the PLL. GXT6x00P models are equipped with an additional Geometry Engine (GT1000) but this driver doesn't use it. I see that even after 2 years, this patch still hasn't been added to the official Linux kernel. You will appreciate how little code this took to save everybody with a GXT6500P card some trouble. cheers, Nello -- CRUX PPC user on IBM POWER4+
