Hi,
I'm the person developing this under contract to Theo and Georgia State. I
am developing it specifically to support the Cyclom-Ye PCI card that GSU is
using, but the changes I am having to make to the driver are of a generic
nature, so there is a decent chance that the modified driver will work for
all the same cards that it supports under Linux.
I expect to have the driver completed and released under GPL around the end
of April and would welcome participation from anyone who wants to help test
it with additional Cyclades cards.
The specific version I'm working with is the Cyclades release 6.5.9 of the
driver for Linux 2.2 kernels (driver version 2.3.2.9). I am developing
under RTLinux V2.
Cheers,
Brad
