In order to do so, I need some information about how to interface with the MPSAFE TTY subsystem and how to adapt an existing driver. I am not the only person to have indicated a need for some hand-holding and I was under the impression that Ed would provide this but, to date, all I have is suggestions to look at patched drivers. >A MPSAFE tty subsystem is infinitely more important than any particular >non-console tty driver. OTOH, a piece of middle-ware that doesn't work with the underlying hardware drivers makes that hardware useless. MPSAFE is probably more important than any particular non-console driver but Ed is talking about disconnecting almost every non-console TTY driver. -- Peter Jeremy Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour.
