You could just as well give up then. :). You need product datasheets for this. You could reverse engineer parts of it, but not in 7 days. Tell him you'll move to another chip manufacturer if he doesn't give them (datasheets) out, possibly under NDA, and you might have a chance. Also, don't forget most Linux programmers will prefer open source drivers, so if you want closed-source drivers, you'll lose quite some interested developers, too... And yes, that's all political. That's Linux. Ronald -- Ronald Bultje <rbultje@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
