We now intend to add COMEDI support for the PCI-6143. NI have
agreed to produce the relevent hardware DDK documentation for
this board to allow us to do this.

To help us get started Can some one tell me:

1. How well developed is the Comedi PCI-6110 driver ?
2. Does the driver support DMA and the simultaineous sampling
     available on these boards ?
3. Would it be relatively easy to add support for the PCI-6143 ie. Is
     the Comedi code faily easy to add to ?

Cheers
