Hi there! I'm glad to announce the support of the Iomega ZIP+ drive in FreeBSD current. See http://www.iomega.com for more info about the drive. ZIP and ZIP+ drives have completely different protocols. A new driver was needed. Actually the previous vpo driver (supporting the ZIP drive) is still in function and detects either ZIP or ZIP+ during probe. Only lowlevel io routines have been rewritten. The patch is available for test. Drop me a mail if you want it. This code is not really experimental since the vpo has already proved itself. Should it be commited before 3.0? -- Nicolas.Souchu@prism.uvsq.fr FreeBSD - Turning PCs into workstations - http://www.FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
