However, today (and tonight, it's 4am here :) I've been working on porting/patching/finishing the WD-7000 driver from NetBSD. This has now gone so far that I can read and write tapes on my Tandberg 3600. It is unfortunately the only SCSI-device I have. Needed to say is that it's no speed-deamon, but then I haven't done more than get it to work yet. I haven't added scatter/gather support (yet?) (the comment at top of the NetBSD-source talks about that), but in my opinion it's better to have a slow driver than no driver at all. I'll keep on working on it during next week, and I'll get back when I have something worth adding to the source tree. -Olof -------------------+-----------------------+------------------------------------ Olof Johansson | Address: | Phone: +46-10-695-8364 -------------------+ VPL 914 Johansson +------------------------------------ offe@ludd.luth.se | 2 komp, 3 plut | Who is General Failure, and why d92-ojn@sm.luth.se | Box 9106 | is he reading my disk? offe@sdf.luth.se | 961 19 Boden / SWEDEN | (MSDOS - just say NO!) -------------------+-----------------------+------------------------------------
