The thanks belong to Jason who's been submitting the driver. The only thing we FreeBSD folks did with it was leaving it in the GNATS queue for too long. ;-) I'm glad it works well for you, since i had to import it blindly, without ever having a chance to get my hands on a media changer device. Given that some things have been evolving still in FreeBSD since the time Jason submitted the driver, i still had to modify it quite a bit. Good to know it does its job. > Here is the stupid short write-up I did for someone: Can you please submit this to Peter da Silva, for inclusion into the FAQ, or even better, to the docs folks for the handbook? -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
