I can. And that you dont need RedHat... Debian works fine for me.

I contacted itex a while back and got those drivers that now reside on
NZDSL, itex drivers aren't available for easy download, you have to go
through tech support.

Unless I've been dreaming I've been running them with an Ni200 for the
past 3 months or so with Debian on a 486sx25 (I point out the fact its
such a slow machine because there were questions a couple of months back
on the drivers performance on slower machines - its fine)

I havent tried using any of the "tools" provided, nor have I needed to,
they may turn out to be redhat specific. But the archive includes the
pppd-pppoa daemon, and you need to compile the kernel from a clean
source (Its more likely to work first try that way) as opposed to
compiling against the default redhat kernel, so nothing appears to be
distrbution specific at all.

The other response which says the drivers are apollo 3 only, I cant
confirm that fact only that I've got it working... and a quick check on
the nzlug archives turns up that people have had the 2.4.2 drivers
working on an Ni200 too (and the AH-110... no reports of that with the
2.4.16 drivers, I've got one lying around at work which I might test)

PS. Since this is about the 5th time on various mailing lists I've
answered the same question, I might just rewrite the howto for Debian
and 2.4.16:)
