Give it up.. I have gotten at least two devices to work in this fashion... 
now according to some on this list there is no more skill in this then a 14
year old installing mandrake on daddy's PC
Somehow I think this is a convienent viewpoint perhaps not based on the
logic but more on the desire to win an argument.


[You've listed your most significant accomplishment as "getting a
winmodem working in Linux".]

No actually I did write a small kernel module a while back... in fact I had
never even had any formal programming classes when I did that one... but I
suppose you will be particularly underwhelmed with that one too eh or simply
say no you didn't... or whatever suits you hmm?


<So>

I'm off to do some work now ok?
