Initially I wondered if it was just that it took two probes to find the device (the first failing, but having side effects that let the second work), but when you disabled the first I concluded that there was something more interesting involved. > >I'll send you a driver to try later. > > The driver you sent me works without a hitch (so far).

Is this a completely new driver, or just a variation on the existing one? -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
