Roger Hardiman: | I've changed the way the bktr Bt848/Bt878 driver works | when it is a loadable Kernel Module. (KLD) ... | Now the bktr driver is split in two | bktr_mem (contains a memory holder function) | bktr (the main bktr driver) ... | bktr_mem holds onto the bktr_driver's precious contiguously | allocated memory if/when the bktr driver is unloaded. Very nice Roger! I know the times I've been hacking bktr I've wished for this. Those dreaded reboots killed lots of time in testing and experimentation. -- Randall Hopper aa8vb@nc.rr.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
