It has a giant 73 pin female DB type connector in it, and other markings like an LED with Mux Status, RS-232-C Direct Connect MUX.
As a side not, while I was configuring the kernel for my system, I noticed the max number of mux ports was set to 16. I thought this may have been the problem since the MPD has 8 ports (even though I can only find 1), and the J2092A has an addition 16 ports, so I was looking at 24 ports total. When I configured my kernel, I set this value to 32, hoping that would resolve the issue. I just tried putting the J2092A back in, and I saw simiar problems. I am continuing to research this issue as I would like to have the Mux card installed, and I don't have a filler plate to cover the hole where the mux card should be. It is starting to look like a nice piece of Duct Tape may be neede to full the hole though :( Brett -- gentoo-hppa@gentoo.org mailing list
