I wouldn't be surprised if the current winning driver is the emu10k1
one. I thought about LOW_PRI already before I committed it, but first
I will give early adoptors a chance to report bugs. Then we can change
the priority, and then remove the emu10k1 driver.
But if you think we can change the pri now, I don't object...
Bye,
