It described how to install the driver, 66gave informations on driver features and summerized important 67changes between versions. These informations are now available 68using `man sym' for driver usage and features description, and 69`cvs log' for driver changes. 70 71I haven't removed this README file from the repository since 72I may have to provide additional documentation to people 73interested in understanding the driver sources and/or in helping 74driver development and maintainance. 75 76As a result, this file is now under reconstruction. :-) 77 78-- 79"Gerard Roudier"<groudier@free.fr> 80
