In principle, you can use any bus you like. For exanple, there are some USB and PCMCIA devices supported by Comedi. So do you connect to the controller card over a serial port? If so you could base your driver on the serial2002 driver, but that driver has been marked with the status "in development" since 2002, so might not be much help, especially for 2.6 kernels. -- -=( Ian Abbott _at_ MEV Ltd.
