This isn't a very informative post. The only thing i can say is that i have no access to a 64 bit machine at all (neither Alpha, nor Ultra Sparc, nor AMD64), so i can't say at all if this driver has a chance to work correctly. The driver's code is probably safe (there is no abuse of pointers<->int conversions), but as you say, maybe the usb interface is not mature enough in 64bit... dunno. Maybe duncan knows a bit more. -- Edouard Gomez Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se d�sinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
