I see. Well it really doesn't trouble me to rewrite the gamma driver
since I'll be changing all other drivers. Also the work I'm doing will
move a big chunk of each driver into common code (all the buffer
management), so there will be little to rewrite on the gamma driver
anyway. If it's OK with you after this is done you could lend me your
Gamma for a couple of weeks - you're still leaving in Swansea, aren't
you?.

(if you can disclose now)? The Castlerock I suppose.
