first of all, you need to take care of the PCI cards you use. As the Freesc=
ale support and=20
also the manuals say: "Only 3.3V compliant PCI cards". In the meantime ther=
e are quite a lot
of burned-out boards because of "wrong" cards.
Next problem with the PCI bus on this board is, that because of some timing=
 issues not all=20
cards will be detected, so it'll be hard to find a video card, that matches=
 these requirements.
The only card that I know, which seems to work AND is somehow supported is =
a CORAL-P evaluation=20
board from Fujitsu. But this one is rather expensive.=20
I tried also and old Nvidia Riva 128 card, which was detected correctly, bu=
t is not
initialized correctly by the framebuffer driver.

Gerhard
