by Hi,
After reading on the various Linux newsgroups for a while, I
decided to get the ASUS SC200 NCR 53c810 Host adaptor. But
the company I ordered it from couldn't get it to work with
a SONY Quadspin CDU-76S SCSI CD-ROM and so gave me a more
expensive NexStor NXT-93N Host Adaptor based on the NCR 53c825.
Under DOS I can read/execute files from the CD-ROM ok but I can't
get it to play music CDs.
I have never heard of NexStor and never installed Linux. So
I need to know whether this card and the CD-ROM will work with
Linux or not (it is hardly mentioned in the newsgroups).
My motherboard is an ASUS P55TP4XE.
Any pointers and suggestions will be much appreciated. If I
can't get much info on the NexStor and Linux I will have to
cough up some extra money and buy the Adaptec 2940 - mainly
for it's abundance of support and drivers.
Thanks and regards,
Henry.
