The organisation and extent of this list make it a wonderful resource. The organisation is a vast improvement from the earlier unstructured list. I can throw away my bookmarks and use just this list.

It is so long though, that perhaps it should be divided in two, with the machine-specific sections (over half the file, everything from Amstrad on) in another file. (Granted it is a six-of-one (smaller files) vs half-a-dozen (another link/level) proposition.)

Anyone know where I can obtain a PS/2 ISA mouse port card? The PS/2 header on my AT board is shot and rather than tracing down broken traces and bad resisters, etc. I'd rather just replace the damned thing with something that works. Once that is done, my one classic Linux box is done (P200MMX, 48MB SIMMS, 8GB Hard Drive). It's holding me back and annoying me because I had wanted to toy around with the new KDE. The other machine is newer (not so classic), but still kinda old. A Crappaq Presario that someone was nice enough to take the model panel off of the front and remove the serial sticker from the back. It's a PII-400Mhz with 96MB SDRAM, built-in DEC Tulip 10MBit NIC, ESS AudioDrive and ATi Rage LT Pro AGP on a 440BX proprietary board. I have a 2GB Maxtor IDE and a 4GB half-height Seagate SCSI in it with an 8x Compaq SCSI CD-ROM. The thing that's driving me nuts is getting the whole thing to work with Slack or Gentoo. Neither want to load right for some reason (boot partition is not there?). It's trying to boot off the Adaptec AHA-1542B card I had commented about. I'm thinking of going IDE CD-ROM in it just to get the friggin thing loaded on the IDE drive and then just tooling with it to get the SCSI later. Any thoughts? -John Boffemmyer IV PS: Don't I owe someone on here five bucks for one of these cards? Whomever it is, contact me off list and I'll arrange to pay immediately with some sort of interest. ---------------------------------------- Founder, Lead Writer, Tech Analyst and Web Designer Boff-Net Technologies http://boff-net.dhs.org/index.html ---------------------------------------

IF anybody does have a PS/2 isa mouse card please let me know would really like one so my 386 can use the mouse on my kvm (have too many mice on my desk as it is.

Not entirely sure. They may be the bus mouse cards and not PS/2. The connectors were about the same size, but had a notch on part of the circle and several more pins. If it is a bus mouse card, then I would require a bus mouse. Interested though...
