Well, I'm assuming the 41 MHz clocked bus is not a 66-MHz type PCI bus (doesn't have the 66 MHz bit set and can't operate at 20.5 MHz if you plug in a card that can't do 66 MHz operation), rather it's an overclocked 33 MHz bus. And running PCI over 33 MHz isn't legal in the PCI spec as far as I know. You can go lower, but I think the limit is 16 MHz there. -- Vojtech Pavlik SuSE Labs - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
