I'll buy that. : : > Of course, all this depends on time and availability of Warner. :) : : Go Warner go! :-) Hmmm, I have two things on my list in line before fixing this port: 1) Some security fixes that I don't want to slip through the cracks, plus writeup of a recent security related fix that went into the tree. 2) Fix the aha driver for older cards (and some newer ones) during probe's attempt to ferret out bt cards from aha cards. So I may take the coward's way out and just commit the "make it work on a homogeneous system" path to get some functionality working for 3.0, and if I have time do the mixed system stuff, I will.
