Hi James,
Thanks for the info. I know we just need driver name for doing pkgadd, I
want to know weather we have to precede CSW in front of the driver in the
pkginfo file. If you download the drivers from the link given below, All the
drivers precede with CSW in front of them. I want to know weather it is
really needed?

Thanks,
VarmaUddaraju.
