Yes please. Yamaha is known to be very conservative about giving out documentation (NDA and such). This was one of my points to decide against them when the question came for which CD-R to buy (by a time when there was no working support at all for them in FreeBSD, only Peter Dufault's stub driver). Getting the Yamaha to work should not be a major piece of work, judging from Linux' cdwrite. I think it will fit into the existing model, it's just that they use some different mode pages to do the work. However, i was hesitant to play this game without the chance of getting docs. (Mind you, the recipe for the correct write sequence of my Plasmon is almost one page, in 10 pt letters. ;) -- 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. ;-)
