AKE USB 2.0 PCMCIA and OS 9
Posted by: theos911 on 2011-07-31 10:55:49
I've recently begun to continue my modernizing of my Wallstreet. I was looking at this USB 2.0 Card. http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Port-USB-2-0-PCMCIA-CardBus-480M-Card-Adapter-Laptop-/170651902543?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27bba5624f It is the same one by the same name on Amazon and many other sites.

I know it is supported under X and surely under MintPPC. However, does anyone know if it shows as 1.1 under OS 8.6/9.x.x ? The main OS I'll probably use on this is MintPPC, but I would like to know if it would be possible to use my thumb drives and such under OS 9.

Thoughts?

My USB card reader is recognized under 9.1 on my Pismo with this card. It looks to be supported by OS9.

Just about any USB 2.0 adapter that works with X, ought to work as a USB 1.0 adapter under 9.x according to many previous posts here, IIRC.
