- This does not bode well for me in the future. The file you would want
- to look at I assume is /sys/sys.i386/isa/if_ec.[ch] (I think - I havent
- got the src dist unpacked at this precise moment) - somewhere in there,
- there will be the major and minor number of the device.

- PS - If you get it going, please let me know what you did.
