Hi,
I don't know this API.
I've tried to look at a few drivers to see how it was used, but it 
didn't help me either.

So, I won't be able to provide any other proposal on this. It would only 
be trial/error.
It is yours if something needs to be fixed here.

Anyway, thanks for your time for answering and trying to show the right 
direction.
