I am running into problems with big/little endian-ness. The device is a PCI card. Do I need to explicitly translate the data between big-endian and little-endian or will the io routines (outl, inl and inw) take care of this for me? On x86 I didn't even think about this issue, but now I have a feeling that maybe I should have. -- Bryan Christianson email: Home Page: [[ This message was sent via the linuxppc-dev mailing list.
