They are mostly objective C drivers. Among other things, there are drivers for the PowerMac ATA with apparently all the timing stuffs, and for the CMD646 controller in the blue G3. There's a PMU driver with apparently up-to-date command length tables and lots of comments about the commands ;-) An interesting thing that I've not seen in the LinuxPPC driver: When sending read commands to non-existing devices, the PMU may never answer, and so there's need for some kind of timeout. I didn't find infos about putting the PowerBook to sleep, maybe MacOS X Server cannot sleep... Finally, the MESH driver is a piece of anthology, but I'll let interested people discover it by themselves ;-) -- E-Mail: BenH. Web : [[ This message was sent via the linuxppc-dev mailing list.
