This is kind of old. Did anyone ever answer it ?

Anyway... CCD has a web site at www.colognechip.de.

Is this the HFC-S PCI chip ? (looks at data sheet...) I guess not.
I have no idea which chip this is and I've never seen numbers like
this on a CCD chip. They tend to use labels like HFC-S PCI or HFC-SP.

There are some CCD chips supported in the next beta releasae. Don't
know when that will be.

The driver for the HFC-S PCI chip is in a rather incomplete state
right now. Obviously, it's a PCI based card. If you have one of
those then you might also have this chip.

I started the driver and got it fairly far along, but I never
finished it. I sent Hellmuth what I had, but he didn't have time
to finish it. If you're interested, I could send you what I have.
But you have to develop in the context of the next release, which is
*completely* different from the old stuff. Could be difficult to get
up to speed. It's probably better to wait for me or Hellmuth to get
on the stick and finish the driver.
