However, Bruce Evans has decided that it will NOT be included for any reason, because his driver works fine. Contrary to what I understood that it has not been included because the copyright was restrictive. It does not make much sense to include driver which cannot be used by anyone or only by a limited group of users. The thing is called *Free*BSD, after all :-). If this has changed, it would make sense to include it (I could not check this out; ftp.mediacity.com says permission denied on the file?). The current cy driver seems to work with 8-port cards but does not probe 16-port cards. I do not know why, but I will try to look at it as soon as I have time and a spare PC to dedicate for the job. -- Heikki Suonsivu, T{ysikuu 10 C 83/02210 Espoo/FINLAND, hsu@cs.hut.fi home +358-0-8031121 work -4513377 fax -4555276 riippu SN
