Does anyone know if the Compaq Power Storm 300/350 graphic devices have a
Linux driver? I have a XP1000/667Mhz system with these graphics card
installed, and have spare disk that I want to load Linux into. I have
checked the Compaq WWW web Alpha Linux pages and supported devices pages.
But have not seen any support for these cards.

The BIOS startup reports the card as something like :-
Evans and Sutherland Real Image 2100

These card are 3D cards , I have have a 1/2 hearted go with a RedHat 6.2 CD
after using the Compaq Linux Primer CDrom first, to setup the disk.

Regards,
Stephen.

No, sorry, they are not TGA2's. They are Evans and Sutherland cards.
The PowerStorm 3D30 and 4D20 are TGA2 cards.
