Hi Nicholas,

there's a driver out for 5.2 and 5.3 from SysKonnect for the Yukon-I=20
controllers. However, it's only for PCI cards, not LOMs. As far as I=20
know, there are no plans to support the LOMs, although they are=20
functionally identical to the PCI cards.

As for support for 6-CURRENT, the answer at the moment is, no, it's not=20
envisaged unfortunately. Note also that the current driver is=20
binary-only. This may change in the future, for undefined values of=20
'future' :(:(

Hope that helps.

Gerald
