Dear FreeBSD friends,

I have a new computer with an additional LPT port:

puc0 at pci3:13:0: class=0x078000 card=0x00101000 chip=0x98059710 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'MosChip Semiconductors (Was: Netmos Technology)'
    device   = 'Nm9805 PCI + 1284 Printer Port'
    class    = simple comms

I was able to get it work by adding the following to /usr/src/sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c

         /* Added by Willy at Rompen.nl 06/05/2004 */
         /* recommended by john at feith.com       */
  
         /* NetMos 0S1P PCI : 0S, 1P */
         {   "NetMos NM9805 1284 Printer port",
                 NULL,
                 {   0x9710, 0x9805, 0,      0       },
                 {   0xffff, 0xffff, 0,      0       },
                 {
                         { PUC_PORT_TYPE_LPT, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00 },
                 },
         },

and to enable the puc driver in the kernel of course.

Is it possible to add the data to /usr/src/sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c permanently?

Thnx a lot,
