If you are really talking about transformers, there is no need to get datasheets for them as the isolation transformers are passive components... It looks like the KS8695 has only one port that can have an external PHY, the other four ports attached to the switch appear to have the PHY's onboard, and so will connect to isolation transformers... > > We are starting to integrate the arm toolchain patches into CVS head, > > but until then, you can pull the patch out of perforce: > > > http://perforce.freebsd.org/fileLogView.cgi?FSPC=//depot/projects/arm/gnu%2darm.diff > > Thanks, are the patches located there the same as the ones located > here: > http://people.freebsd.org/~cognet/freebsd_arm.txt I'm not sure if cognet has updated the patches there or not... If he still talks about a contrib patch, then no, he hasn't updated them, though they should work... -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
