I'm not sure if anyone has tried them on a PPC box. From checking the log
files, it looks like macppc driver support has not been added in
1.4.3. (the MI driver was fixed, but the driver wasn't referenced in the
macppc-specific driver table). The driver has been added to 1.5, which is
in the process of being released.

I have personally used the Cyclades-Z driver in my Beige G3, and it works
fine. It too is in 1.5.

Take care,
