George,

I haven't checked on the Easy Launch stuff recently. My brain is still a 
little hazey from Thankgiving, and I'm currently playing catch-up with 
e-mail and other work things. How about pinging me next week and I'll 
start another cycle of trying to get the necessary programming 
information?

Regarding the Lucent driver, it's still entirely a kernel driver. Given 
that it needs real-time-like support, it makes sense that it's in the 
kernel.

  Hi Keith,

    Just doing my regular checkup to see if there is any word on releasing
the specs for the Easy Launch keys and the hardware CD controls...

  Also, is this new lucent driver separated into kernel space and 
userspace
parts finally?
