Hi, I'm trying to write a device driver for an ISA signal processor card - I've made sure there isn't one around at the moment (why re-invent the wheel? <g>) - and I could do with some help... I downloaded some shell scripts, which at the time looked like a good idea - they create a driver framework to work from (with all the code stubs written for probing, creating, attaching, doing IOCTL's etc.) - but the code refers to manually editing 'conf.c'... My 2.2.2-Release system doesn't have a conf.c ;-) The templates also don't seem to mention major / minor device numbers either - unless they 'were' taken care of in conf.c at some point in the past? Can anyone point the way to some up to date (i.e. 2.2.2+ etc.) info on the net about writing device drivers for BSD - i.e. up to date templates etc.? for nice simple ISA cards, or just code stubs? - Or are there any drivers in BSD which are nice and simple for using as templates allready? Thanks in advance, Karl Pielorz (mailto:kpielorz@tdx.co.uk)
