Hello Greg. I was wondering when someone would get around to writing a
driver for a Stallion card. I have an 8 port card floating around, model
no stencilled on the top component side is V3.2 I Will your driver
support this card?
If so:
1) Does it use the card in dumb mode ( I hope not, you _do_ work for
Anvil I presume!)
2) Can the card support 16550 uarts at 115200 in dumb ot intelligent modes
3) Does it have any of those nice monitoring tools 8-) (siomon?)
4) Do you have a set of patches I can grab,
I'm running 2.0.5 until my 2.1 CD arrives _and_ I'm on holidays till Jan 15
