Re: [hylafax-users] Hylafax with Dell PE2850 und SuSE

[Kimble Young <kimble@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Isn't PCI-X backwards compatible with PCI?

Wouldn't that mean you can use standard PCI cards in the slots?

It would slow the other cards down to 33MHZ but if you have multiple 
buses just isolate the card on its own bus.

I'm only going off hear say. I've never actually laid hands on a PCI-X 
machine.
