RE: something about sis6215c cards.



Hi,
I think it should work but i have neither old pcquest cdrom nor url from
where i can have it.
can you send me this two files as email attachments or mail me the url from
where i can find this new drivers for sis6215.?
I have visited the site www.xfree86.org but its links follow the ftp
directories and i don't know in which directory i can have it.Also its
server is too slow to download the files.
