I think I have 3.3.5 not sure tho.  I am waiting for my Redhat ISO image to 
finish and then I am re-installing Linux on all three machines and starting

support.  Course I hear that Diamond is one of the "this is our stuff we 
don't wanna share" companies when it comes to specs and drivers.  Oh well
