[0]I am trying 032295-SNAP because I would like to be able to use the tunnel
[0]driver and possibly the CD-ROM stuff.

[0]The source for the Panasonic driver seems to be missing, (pcd.c).
[0]I actually have a Reveal CD-ROM, but thought I'd try the Sony and Panasonic
[0]drivers for kicks. The Sony didn't do it, and the Panasonic wasn't there.
[0]Any sugestions on the Reveal? I gather that someone wrote a driver for it
[0]for Linux. I'd be willing to try, but how does one get the hardware
[0]information?

The driver you want is called "matcd".  Those drives are named after
the manufacturer, Matsushita, not the various trade names like Panasonic,
Creative, Reveal, Tandy, etc.

This driver was written specifically for FreeBSD.  It is not based on
a single line of Linux code.    Nayyyah!   :-)
