Hi Jonathan,
(please read my message in full and see my desperation - All I want is 
my usb port working - I've got no mouse)

You may not have got my last email. My question was:

If ATI don't release information about their hardware designs, then how
did the OpenBSD developers get the info needed to write the driver for
my dreadfully incompatible ATI IXP soundcard in this system (sound works
under 3.8 snapshots)?
Also, USB works under NetBSD 2.0/Linux (FC3-4, SuSe - I've tried it). 
How did they get it working?
How come OpenBSD developers can't?
It's all I want. I'd even be prepared to pay for it (If you count all of 
the OpenBSD CD releases that I've already bought in the past, I've 
already paid for it)

Please, please help me.

Regards,
Sophie
