Uh, erm, you mean Richard? (as in Richard Hirst)

Basically this should work on any box who's processor (U-bit) and
memory controller supports uncacheable memory. Consensus to date
seems to limit this to boxes with 7100LC and 7300LC processors.

Last I heard, Richard was still working on getting stuff working
on the 715/75 recently dropped off. It seems since this box is
a PA7100 (not LC), it doesn't support U-bit (just ignores it
perhaps?).

For systems with U2/Uturn (HP-UX ccio driver), prumpf is working
on "Dynamic DMA mapping" support on those. For boxes with Astro
(HP-UX sba driver), support is already in CVS and "sort-of" tested.

welcome (it was fun),
