Hi Christoph, You are ofcourse talking about linux/drivers/.. right? IP27 is not a supported architecture under linux/arch/ia64/sn/io/.. The IP27 MIPS processor/io hardware(bridge/Xbridge)/BIOS for IP27 are very much different than our SN2 product, supported within the linux/arch/ia64 tree - ia64 processors, IO Chipsets(PIC, TIO(CP,CA)), and System BIOS. Is that not supported under the linux/arch/mips tree? Happy Holidays all. colin > > > > + issues before merging, it's not that much anyway.. > > > > I think I did.
