- No, there is no such driver in the released software. I'm sure that

- isn't shipped standard, to the best of my knowledge.
-
- There *is* a directory in 4Dgifts (/usr/people/4Dgifts/iristools/abekas)
- whose comments say that it is a control panel for the A60 and A64.
-
- I didn't look to see just how much it does, but you might want to
- start from that (it is in dev.sw.giftsfull; not eoe2, as somebody
- gracefully corrected me the other day, when talking about some
- other sample code...)
