I've bee= n=20 having issues getting the latest CVS version of pilot-link (about 3 weeks= =20 ago) to configure and build, but I think that's my machine, since other=20 haven't seemed to have the same problem. I'll get some time to look at t= his=20 stuff in about a week, I'm just really busy right now though. If you do = get=20 the latest pilot-link to work, let me know what you did. And to answer your question, Yes, the FreeBSD USB code has been merged=20 starting with 0.11.3. If you've got anymore questions stop by the irc=20 channel #pilot-link on irc.pilot-link.org my handle is _Guhit. -- Anish Mistry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
