The whole driver? No. I wouldn't even know where to start - I've never been able to figure out other people's code, and that's about the only "good" source for driver information I've can find. But I could write the part that reads and analyzes the config file, as well as takes the id's and returns the tuner's data structure. -Jim Stapleton
