 well, I have a (bad) clue for this ;(
 this card was previsously pluggued into a pentium/celeron box (see a previ=
ous
 thread I wrote on how to have this card working on i386).

 to summarize :
1. it works on i386 when all the drivers are enabled.
2. it has the 200K/s issue (but I thought it might be a i386 issue so didn'=
t investigate more).
3. looks like it "works/bugs" the same way on 3.0_BETA/sparc64 and 2.0_STAB=
LE/i386.
