Looking for a quick win, I totally understand that. It's far easier to start with a working driver and then make incremental changes than it is to just bring up hardware cold.

But... How did the GPL code end up in CVS?? That's just amazing to me. OpenBSD is normally so tight with its code -- how did they let a mistake like this happen? And is there other tainted code in their CVS?
