And I don't expect you to do all the work yourself - you can't be expected to test hardware you don't have.

My difficulty is that the cards are all in use and upgrading to a FreeBSD-current that doesn't support them and then porting the driver is probably not an option (whereas converting it from using shims to access the TTY layer to doing so directly would probably be acceptable - because I can get the board going again in a hurry if needed). I can't help with any of the others, sorry. --=20 Peter Jeremy Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour. --45Z9DzgjV8m4Oswq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkhtiSUACgkQ/opHv/APuIcPxACgoXjGnN5twMkRBUf63f+nXmMJ S8wAoIpB4WxR0j4p/+KJOwJqeFZmtNQc =9A2i -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --45Z9DzgjV8m4Oswq--
