I read on c.o.l.hardware that the 2940UW works well with the 2.0.32
kernel: the machine's going to run RH5.0 (thanks gdb) so it should be
fine.

The problem is that the machine's coming from GW2000: if their pulldown
menu contains four controllers you have a choice of four.  If the 2940UW
was terrible, I suppose we'd go somewhere else, but as it is I think it'll
go well.
