Hi, this is the second episode of my last mail concerning IOBlix driver, i wish to inform you that i shall try to write the parallel drivers of the same card (LP & PLIP) because they seems quite simple (not easy). But i shall delay them because of Italy's summer weather: i have not the air conditioning in my apartment and the off-limits programming is not in my philosophy ;-). Jokes apart. I wish to have some informations about Cyberstorm SCSI driver and Buddha IDE driver. 1) Is anyone working on Cyberstorm SCSI ? Nicholai said to me months ago that nobody was working on it. The situation is changed or not ? 2) Buddha IDE driver has a problem on my computer: when reboot it locks the process of restart and i must switch off the machine and then (naturally) on. This problem is described in its docs in the kernel's source block devices directory, but i wish to know if there is someone that is improving it. I have tried to remove the $FC0 write instruction because ,as of that docs, it is used only with buggy hardware. The driver ignored my modify continuing to work normally after the new kernel's compilation and bootstrap, but the reboot problem still remains. Do you know something about ? Any suggestion ? Thanks P.S. Dear Michel, thank you for the patch manager suggestion, i am a sort of "caveman" about Mailing List services :-) . -- Giorgio Terzi |
