Start reading the scriptures of our great prophets Kernighan and Ritchie[1], they will enlighten you. Other than that, a global variable is usually a bad idea, what if your driver has to drive more than one card? You can't share the pointer between those cards. Erik [1] Brian W. Kernighan and Dennis M. Ritchie, "The C programming language, second edition", Prentice Hall, 1988. -- They're all fools. Don't worry.
