I have been trying to work with a version of the driver. At the moment I am stuck because I can't figure out how to access the 32 bit registers of the 53C770 chip. There was supposedly someone else working on a 53C770 driver though I don't think it was specifically for the Amiga.

The BSD kernels seem quite a bit different internally compared to Linux, so I was a bit lost looking at the sources. I still have a few things to try. I am not ready to give up just yet. I guess I will try to be patient since this is my first serious effort to learn something about the kernel. >Can anyone from the MorphOS team help you?

That's not important. Linux has a driver for the 53c770. Our current problem
seems to access the registers, which should easily be solved by looking at the
NetBSD sources.

Just a silly idea, but do you (still) have a working Linux/m68k environment too? Perhaps a test using the m68k may give some results. That way you know in what general area you have to look (PPC weirdness in case it works under m68k or CyberStorm weirdness in case m68k fails as well) Bye, Arno. -- PSINetworks Europe Fax: +31-23-5699841 | One disk to rule them all, Siriusdreef 34 Tel: +31-23-5699840 | One disk to bind them, 2132WT Hoofddorp+--------------------------------+ One disk to hold the files The Netherlands | * Musical Interlude * | And in the darkness grind 'em ----------------+--------------------------------+------------------------------ We say Retribution, We say Vengeance is bliss, We say Revolution, With a Cast-Iron fist!
