Ok so I'm a bit confused here. I just built a QNX x86 machine and purchased a ATI x300 graphics card after finding out from this forum that it works. This is a PCIe card, I was under the impression that QNX does not have any PCIe drivers. I understand that from a driver perspective the PCI driver should work on a PCIe bus. I guess I just don't understand how everything is working.
Can anyone clarify this?
Thank you. |

You got it right, from the driver perspective PCI and PCIe is the same. It's all about the BIOS/chipset/pci_server taking care of everything  |
