I'd like to move my Optimum teletext adaptor from a DOS box to a Linux
box. One minor problem is the lack of a device driver. Optimum
Technology say that they don't have drivers for any flavour except Unix
and that they aren't willing to give me any interface spec. They did
offer to upgrade me to an external unit which communicates via serial
port but that is not an option I'd like to use.

So.... has anyone written a device driver for this beast? If not, I'd
welcome suggestions for PD PC disassemblers so that I can reverse
engineer their 4.5k driver and write my own.

Regards,

Mark.
