Hi,
I've just completed the first draft of a new device driver for the FarSite
Communications, FarSync T2P and T4P cards. These cards are intelligent
synchronous serial cards supporting 2 or 4 ports running at up to 8Mbps with
X.21, V.35 or V.24 signalling.
This mail is basically a call for tes

Or a trap. I'm not about to go anywhere near this and won't even look at
the licience but I bet the M$ argument will go something like:
You've looked at the code.
You now know things that are propriatary to M$.
I've hit a problem with the syncPPP module within Linux.
Under certain conditions (hard to quantify exactly, but try several 8Mbps
streams hitting a relatively slow, say 200MHz processor) the LCP/IPCP
negotiation hits the following loop.

Thanks for making me go back and look at it again guys. The reordering of
REQ and ACK does work

Warning I've not looked at that particular driver and would concider

Whoops yourself. The following patch brings your example into line with
the driver code. mpuout is a pointer to a structure
Hi,
How can I determine if the build my device driver is being compiled under is
a standard kernel.org one or a Red Hat one ?
The problem is I have a driver that includes syncppp.h which in the releases
from kernel.org is in linux/drivers/net/wan/ up to and including 2.4.2 after
which it moves t
