Greg,
Which would be the complexity (time) for make available the refclock driver
for the
bc635/637pci cards? Soon we will buy this card for initiate the tests as
soon as possible...
Best Regards,
Darlan

The best starting point would probably be dev 16 from the Bancomm
bc635VME. However, I don't have a VME box with Solaris to make sure I
don't break anything. If someone else does, I can probably scare up a
VME card. Generically, we need to open a device driver, make an ioctl
call and convert the data. I'm not current on the linux driver for the
card but I can find out. The alternative would be the shared mem but
that uses a different model which I don't currently know how to extend.

Greg,
Is there an existing driver that could handle these cards as well?
