I have no idea.

Apparently, the Melody1200 board can be hooked onto a Zorro carrier, so that
I could write and test support for it... _if_ I had information and a set
of boards. In the past, KATO Development had given me pretty early access to
the old Zorro-Melody, and the documentation needed (name of the TI chip used
there, mostly, and how it is hooked up), so that the old driver was possible.

I had talked with one of them about the new board about two years ago, but
somehow, getting a bridgeboard so that I could verify it works in the DraCo
didn't work out.

For the old Zorro Melody, just set it to the right mode and
