Wow, impressive script, that must have been a lot of work 'til you've got it in a usable shape with that huge whitelist! > Something I forgot to mention: I would like to run some subset of > these tests on "make check", but I don't know how we could choose > that subset.

Maybe limit the tests to the devices that have a high chance to work on different machines? ... that means primarily PCI, ISA and USB devices, I guess. Thomas
