I bought an old powerpc PMC card and a PCI adapter to fit this into
the PC PCI slot. However a 'lspci -v' at the command doesn't show any
difference with/without the card. Does this mean the card is fried?

thanks

Thanks for your reply. The PMC card is an SBS palomar II card which I
think is a 5v card. No LED's on the card. I have started looking
around for a 3pin RS232 cable.

Thanks again for your inputs...

What I/O voltage is the PMC card 5v or 3.3v?  Does the PMC card have any in=
dependent I/O options - RS232 header or anything else?  Does it have any st=
atus LEDs?  What type of card is it?
