hello again,
i just noticed this driver turn up in the openbsd code. i'm suspecting
that it might resolve pc-pda connectivity issues for some users.
man:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cdce&sektion=4
cvsweb:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/dev/usb/if_cdce.c
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/dev/usb/if_cdcereg.h
would really appreciate it if a committer glanced at the code.
(...and, if meritorious, eventually ported this piece over)
hopefully, this will scratch someone's itch. in the meantime, knoppix
it is. =]
many thanks,
epi
