I'm not aware of anybody actively using these anymore. They are mid-nineties vintage with an M68K processor onboard. I ran a couple of these when they were new but haven't had a working board in probably a decade. No objections to Salvatore's patch but I have a slight affinity for retiring unused code over patching it. So unless there are objections... -- Martin K. Petersen Oracle Linux Engineering
