It unfortunately didn't made it into 2.6.19-rc1 because Russell stopped maintaining serial stuff, but it's in -mm. It also has an official lanana.org assigned set of device nodes. I didn't look at your patch yet, but I think it would be more useful to add any features missing to my driver than writing yet another driver (I think we're up to 3 now). -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
