Those listed drivers are for OS/2 ... X86 code. Expecting them to be ported anytime soon would be daydreaming.


Another quote from ANN by Ben H.:

SciTech will take care of porting SNAP to Linux PPC, we will take care of having SNAP run as a monitor driver for P96.

And from the Scitech homepage:

"SciTech SNAP drivers are source code portable between different microprocessor platforms, and the binary drivers are operating system portable within a particular microprocessor family. Hence the Intel x86 drivers can work on any 386+ CPU with any 32-bit operating system or environment supported on that CPU."

Scitech already have the drivers running for Linux X86.   so porting to LinuxPPC should be rather easy.
