If we've got the ability to use HARP with ngATM hardware drivers then I'm going to fully support removing all HARP only drivers from the system. I'd like to make sure that the structure of the ngATM Fore drivers will allow us to easily support EISA and SBUS adapters. Since the ngATM drivers support bus-dma this shouldn't be an issue (other than possibly breaking out the PCI specific bits to their own files). Harti, do you see any issues with getting the ngATM stuff in before 5.1? I'll do what I can to test the ngATM drivers with HARP here. -- | Matthew N.
