Hi, Damcha.  It appears that something changed in kernel 2.3/2.4 that broke
the ieee12844 and ieee12844pp drivers.  Since I'm not a kernel expert and
don't have a 2.4 machine, I'm not sure how to fix this right now, but I'll
look into it at some point.  Does anyone else have any ideas here?

The warnings in the ptal directory result from currently unused functions
I started but haven't finished writing yet.
