I recently got ahold of two extra SCSI cards, and I'm not sure whether or
not they're compatible with Linux...
One card is not labeled as an Adaptec card, but has an Adaptec AIC-6250DL
chip on it. I have information on all the jumper settings and such for
this card. It's dated 1989.
The other card looks like it is really ancient. It has a WD33C93-FL
chip, copyright 1985 by WDC, manufactured in 1987. I don't have jumper
information for this one. The jumpers are labeled on the board, but the
dip switch is unlabeled.
If anyone could tell me if either of these cards will work under Linux,
and possibly provide the dip switch information for the WDC card, I would
be most appreciative. Thanks in advance.

A: None. They just define darkness as an industry standard.
