I'd like the 'de' driver fixed if if hasn't been in the last two weeks; while onsite in sweden I tried cutting a new -current kernel to replace the kernel on one of the radar controller systems that was basically being ground into the mud by the scientists, and discovered that the 'de' driver was not working with the SMC cards we have. It was a relatively simple process to retrofit an earlier version, but I'm not sure if this problem received any general airplay as I've been a little, er, busy 8( Incidentally this system is still being pounded _very_ hard and is still dying, albeit a little less rapidly; if anyone can fill me in on what's happened in -current land in the last few weeks (offline might be best), I'd like to try anything that might improve the life of the system. > Jordan -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] Collector of old Unix hardware.
