I have a design paper that I would like some review on in /pri/mcrae on dmssyd.syd.dms.csiro.au It goes a bit light on in the future design dept (it was written for a conference) but you may get the general drift. I will elaborate on this area quite soon. I have the latest linux stuff, which may help me with the hardware problems I have been having with some of the controllers (getting documentation here down under is a pain in the neck..) I am about to dive in and try some prototyping of a new device interface separate to the ISA bus stuff. I will report on this ASAP. >Poul-Henning Kamp Cheers, Andrew McRae inet: andrew@mega.com.au MITS Real Time Ltd, uucp: ..!uunet!mega.com.au!andrew North Ryde 2113 Phone: +61 2 805 0899 NSW AUSTRALIA Fax: +61 2 887 4847
