I wouldn't be surprised if the current winning driver is the emu10k1 =20
one. I thought about LOW_PRI already before I committed it, but first =20
I will give early adoptors a chance to report bugs. Then we can change =20
the priority, and then remove the emu10k1 driver.

But if you think we can change the pri now, I don't object...

Bye,
Alexander.
