Yes... I'm working it. I have PnP support working, and now I'm working on ways to reliably detect and keep track of the resources that non PnP drivers use (e.g. DRQ, IRQ, IO Port Range, iomem range etc.). I heard some stuff recently from the NetBSD camp about keeping track of iomem & IO port ranges-- I'm gonna try to wait to see what they produce. Sujal
