Some sort of generic. I have others that I could try, including a winbond W8685AF (I have marked it on the back 3BCh for some reason - maybe a nonstandard address, original price $21.78, made in China) and a Korean /Malaysian model with more chips . Both have jumpers: in one case JP1 JP2 and in the other a 3-pin J4.
I have the lack of scroll in two computers with cards that I cannot easily look at.
These are all 16-bit half-length cards (length about the width of my hand) with parport build-in (which does not print in linux - another problem with using two video cards).
This is certainly a busy mail list!
