I tried this and...it worked! My simple test program is below. Linuxbios
puts the smb stuff at 0xf00 and it is already enabled (at least in my patch).
So all I had to do was do the outb's to get it to work. Thanks *very* much.

Note to Ron: Let me know if you want the epia-m, I'll still send one off if
you want it. I've got a spare 10000 (1 gig) that you can have. Note I
don't read email sent to the address I'm posting from...best send to
[e-mail] to get to me.

Execellent.  I will integrate it to the v1 tree.  Thank you very much for
the patch.  :)

let's talk about that patch one more time before we commit.
