Hello from Gregg C Levine normally with Jedi Knight Computers
First question is this one: Who makes the thing? And the next one is: Does a
driver for it exist within the other members of the Unix community?
For example those odd folk at National Instruments, www.ni.com support Linux. I
am quite certain that given the opportunity they would absolutely love to be
the first ones to break into NetBSD.
