I don't think so. It really only worked with the Plasmon `out of the box', and too many people ignored that it won't work with the HP. I'm tired of telling the people afterwards about this... Btw., all i've done is stuffing one #error line there, so people who really believe that they should try it with 2.1.6 instead of the IMHO much better suited (for this purpose) 2.2 can get their will as well. They are expected to patch quite half a dozen files, so removing this single line is not expected too much. :-) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
