I have the Linux source here. It is not really a driver, but a config utility which sets up the pad so that the extra functions work. So it looks pretty simple so I've decided I will try to port it. Unfortunately it uses the deprecated 'ftime' function, and also 'getopt_long' which doesn't seem to work even though getopt.h on my system seems to include this. I'm more of a Python programmer. Maybe I can write Python config program. Rob. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
