How do you manage that? Searching for it in the web? I really don't know ... there's a small book with my card reader but you won't find a single line about technical stuff in it. It's a (pretty simple and cheap) card reader connected to serial port. Many thanks. ----------------- Marc, - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
