This tmc18c30 source is ported from NetBSD/PC98 to FreeBSD an uses the scsi_low source from (dont know exactly) NetBSD because the SCSI low level source is different to FreeBSD. You can find the e-mail from the auhtor who has ported this driver in the tmc18c30 source files. Be warned, the README in the tmc18c30 directory of PAO says its a BAD port (because of scsi_low etc.), but I use it for more than a half year, and I had no problems with it. Only the PCI-probe code and the attach code is written by me, the rest is exact the same source as contained in the PAO package. Maby someone likes to spend some time to make the driver better... /\/\ichael Ranner - rmike@sbox.tu-graz.ac.at http://www.sbox.tu-graz.ac.at/home/rmike/ Watch the clock on the wall, feel the slowing of time... . . . + . + . + . - - - - - ----* . . + . . .
