I just called APDA to see if there is a device drivers kit available for
A/UX 2.0, and was told that they didn't have it and it probably wouldn't
be available until the fall. Can anyone tell me if there is a device
drivers kit or anything comparable available for 2.0 now, or if not, when
something will be available? Would the old 1.1 drivers kit still be
useful? Thanks.

There is a version being prepared for release in approximately the next month or so. Unfortunately, the release has not yet been finalized, so I can't provide a more specific date. Try calling APDA again in a month or so and check again on availability. If it is still not available at that point, send me an e-mail and I will provide another update.

IVC (Intelligent Visual Computing, Inc.) will soon be anouncing an object oriented Device Driver Tool Kit for A/UX 2.0. This toolkit corrects many of the problems found in the A/UX 1.1 Generic Driver. The interface is designed for 'C' but IVC will be developing for C++ and Eiffel in due time. Currently IVC has dragged out the release of this product due to lack of interest in the market. Anyone interested in this product may send email to info%ivc.com@uunet.uu.net or call (800) 776-2810. Furthermore, IVC has been developing A/UX device drivers since the early stages of A/UX 1.0. If you have special needs please give us a call. Kristopher L.
