Well -- obviously I can't tell much about the source ;-), but it certainly looks like C++ to me. The last version of the driver is some years old, actually, so it probably hasn't changed much since you were "in contact" with it -- and yes, as far as I know the card still uses an ST chipset. Since you're somewhat familiar with this driver, do you think the ELF translation approach is a viable one ? Simon
