Hi Michael Hunold,

wooowwww. That was my first thinking, when i read your post on the ML.
Really Cool, what you guys do :)

As im not soo good in linux, i cant try the driver, because i use a 2.4.18
kernel version, and i do not know how to upgrade to 2.5.x

So i will wait a while to see what will happen. I only wanted to say, that
i love your great work. A BIG thank you.
