I think the diffs for that driver are for -CURRENT. I have another
-CURRENT machine that I'm working on some drivers for various things
on... I guess I could modify that kernel.. I've messed with the floppies
before and gotten them to install properly... so I shouldn't have much of
a problem. Next after that is getting the ESS maestro 3i to work :-)
