Linux PCI driver.

[testlaster@gmail.com (testlaster)]

Hi Greg

Yes I have read the book and some of it does make sense to me.

What doesnt make sense though is that my pci.h file that I have found 
/include/linux only has like 30 lines max?

None of the functions in the book are in the header.

Thanks
Testo
