Thanks for the interest. I'll send out a patch file in the next day
or so. It modifies three source files:
ffb.h
ffb_driver.c
ffb_dac.c
and applies to the CVS version 4.1.99.1, of about November 1. However
the three files involved are dated 2001/05/04, and I haven't seen anything
else posted which would indicate conflicting changes to the driver.
Regards,
Ferris
