That's true - I tried it out just after posting my last mail (getting
aware that it was actually some time ago I last time checked which bugs
you've squeezed recently :-)

You are right! Great!
The kernel pukes on the terminal - nothing alarming, except the following
right before falling asleep (or so I believe, it is just below AirPort
going to sleep):
ALSA pmac.c:892: error 2
Here's a cutout from the ALSA source at that point:
----- BEGIN alsa-driver-0.9+0beta4-5/lowlevel/ppc/pmac.c -----
snd_pmac_ctrl_intr(int irq, void *devid, struct pt_regs *regs)
{
pmac_t *chip = snd_magic_cast(pmac_t, devid, return);
int ctrl = in_le32(&chip->awacs->control);
if (ctrl & MASK_PORTCHG) {
/* do something when headphone is plugged/unplugged? */
if (chip->port_change)
chip->port_change(chip);
}
if (ctrl & MASK_CNTLERR) {
int err = (in_le32(&chip->awacs->codec_stat) & MASK_ERRCODE) >> 16;
if (err && !chip->is_burgundy)
snd_printk("error %x\n", err);
}
/* Writing 1s to the CNTLERR and PORTCHG bits clears them... */
out_le32(&chip->awacs->control, ctrl);
}

I haven't got any FW devices myself. My brother has a Sony DV camera, and
some other friends has a harddrive. Tell me what you'd like me to test
next time I get close to the equipment.

Anything I can do (you'll have to instruct me, I don't grok C, just patch
your stuff together. I can test against Laserprinters, PalmPilots and
cellphones (Nokia 8210, Motorla WorldPhone, Ericsson (the first flat one
with wap)).

Ah - I am compiling with David Hinds' pcmcia-cs right now (discovered that
it seems to actually compile with 2.4 - geee, it have been a long time ago
I tested this...)

Too bad - then I really need to work on my old Vaio again - I am packaging
an mp3 jukebox and need to test access to the cd driver...
