I'd like to see a fix for this pushed upstream, but IIRC, Jeff Garzik prefers that the driver be fixed up to use 32-bit aligned MMIO instead of making the driver use IO space. If you can point me in the right direction, as to where the byte-alignement assumtions are, I can fix up the driver and test it on my hardware. Thanks, Kevin
