Good idea - unfortunately, the HTML files are auto generated, and changing the
order of the links would mean to mess with the LinuxDoc DTD (I think).

Ok.

The swiftlink driver exists but is untested. So I cannot promise that there
are no more API changes, even if I do not expect anything like that. A driver
for the silversurfer is a good idea, but as far as I remember, your driver
used polling?

My experience with loadable drivers is that it is often better to use
different drivers that work with exactly one piece hardware. It is easier to
strip the driver down to the really necessary stuff in this case. Since
programs need to configure the driver anyway, I do even drop any attempt of
hardware detection. In most cases it is better to save 100 bytes and let the
user specify which hardware is in place.

Yes, please do so.
