Interesting. Some driver changes happen between 4.3 and 4.4, but they should have close to no effect since they address CAM new transfer settings that aren't available in 4.x (thus #ifed out). I just wanted to keep the source in sync with the main CVS branch. The best thing to try would be 4.5 + sym from 4.3, IMO, [and/or 4.3 + sym from 4.5]. Regards, G=E9rard.
