There are reverse engineered (GPL) drivers for the Hollywood Plus. As a side note, there are currently 4 misc minor numbers allocated to the em8300 drivers (according to Documentation/devices.txt). That's fine for one card but the driver support up to 4 cards so we'd need 16 devices in that case. Currently we're using major number 121. Does anyone have suggestions for moving over to official device numbers? -- Rick (rick@kuroyi.net) http://dxr3.sourceforge.net I think the slogan of the fansubbers puts it best: "Cheaper than crack, and lots more fun."
