However, it would probably be useful to look at it for pointers if you were thinking of porting MPHY support to the mpc8260. BTW, to get the patch try cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/mpc860sar checkout -A atm # Top of tree is now MPHY cd atm cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/mpc860sar diff -u -r single-utopia-phy # compare with SPHY branch Alex On Thu, 2004-02-05 at 12:54, Zoran Stojsavljevic wrote: > Quick question to you all...
