Hi all,

Has anybody got experience working with:

- VME Turbo-PMAC cards
- VME PMAC-2 / Turbo-PMAC-2 cards ?

The existing PMAC VxWorks driver can be used with these cards ?
I think it should be easy to modify the driver for the Turbo PMAC
cards (fastest DSPs, more channels and more memory).

I suppose that the PMAC-2 family will require some  modifications
to use all the new capabilities but it will be useful to know if
the old driver can still work with the new cards.

Finally, is anybody using or considering to use the MACRO
fiber optics interface with the new PMAC-2 / Turbo PMAC-2
cards ?

Thanks and best regards,

    Martí
