I understand.  I did not think you would get to any of the cx18 problems
soon, given your previous progress report e-mail.  However, I didn't see
any harm in putting some problem reports "in the pile" from which you
could select to work, when you did have time to revisit the cx18 driver.
Plus, if I didn't write them down, I'd forget them. :)

I myself have very little time for playing around with software at home.
Along with the problem reports, I would normally try to work up patches
for you to evaluate.  However lack of free time and datasheets makes
that difficult.

Yes, I figured the datasheets had to be different in some respects.  It
makes sense that microcontroller program output enumerations would
change.



I wish you the best of luck with resolving the VBI bugs.
