Hi,

I am curious whether two x1140a Gigabit ethernet 2.0 cards can be connected
in a crossover config without a switch. I gather from a Google search that
this was possible with the older 1.0 cards/drivers.

Also the manual for the GE 2.0 card does not mention the U1 as being a
machine
that can run this card. Can anyone please confirm whether the U1 supports
the card?

Thanks and regards,
Andrew
