: Do you not mean 0xffffffff ?

No.  0xff is the right number here.  The problem is that there's a
number of different flag values, some which come directly from the APM
BIOS, and others that are generated by the drivers.

Not yet.  He's recovering from a massive disk crash right now.

I have the changes in my tree, and will work with Nate to get the
right stuff committed.  At the very least the 255's should be changed
to a meaningful constant.
