Can you get more specific ?
Do you mean a) Some ATAPI devices violate the "ATA/ATAPI-4" NCITS 317-1998 standard (or a newer version), And your driver contained workarounds for these buggy devices? (And Martins driver doesn't contain these.) b) Your driver conforms to the standard, and Martin's driver does not?
