Is it possible to run this driver without the mapped memory? I have a
dual boot machine and the other OS doesn't like the mapped memory and so
the card is configured not to use it.

If it is possible, will the driver just ignore the memory or should it
be turned off in the kernel, and if so is there special syntax or do I
just leave out the `mem' stuff?

Thanks in advance.

Steve
