Hell no. (maybe a couple odd ones) We have to be persistent and ask them to release something, we paid a lot of money, and I have been missinformed to the fact that IBM loved Linux and wanted to "support it". Looks like a big lie to me. They don't even need to release a driver, just information. It is not even something that they only have. Now we all know that Analog Devices makes the hardware. Not them. So much for anything. I will keep asking for this information. If people would send emails to IBM like I have, instead of complaining and doing pilitical arguments, we probably would have an answer already. .Alejandro
