References: <20000718201356.C2427@freebie.demon.nl> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I've got diffs, and they're just waiting for Doug Rabson to submit them...I don't know if they'll make it in time for 4.1, though... By the way, for anyone interested, i've just finished support for native ppc_detect for the Miata platforms (National Semiconductor 873xx SuperI/O), and so we now have code to provide a parallel port that is capable of being relocated to 0x378 (and fully capable of ECP/EPP, thanks to Mark abene's work)--the chip actually supports being relocated to 0x278 as well, but there's a little more work involved, and since any port other than 0x3bc is what is needed to do ECP/EPP support without wiping the screen, this _should_ suffice for now...
