Ok SUP seems to be working now so you should be able to get a set of sources with this driver in it.. I just made a minor change to the DEVFS registration, so what sup has is slightly out-of date.. (get a sup tree of the kernel and replace asc.c) make a DEVFS kernel (see ~julian/src/sys/i386/conf/ASC) and see how it behaves.. (if that configis ok for you, I have a compiled kernel there too) > > > As Luigi Rizzo wrote: > > > > > > I have put the latest release of the GI1904 hand-scanner driver on > > > freebsd.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/asc.tgz > > > > 2.1 is defined as "bug fixes only".
