Not that this is much relevant, because I do not know any PCI DSL modem
driver which works without at least a proprietary binary DSP library.

Please send a reminder now, hotplug support for ATM interfaces is very
important for distributions trying to cleanly integrate support for USB

To me it still looks like that there is limited space for abstraction

file? I was thinking about writing one myself and play with it, but I'd
rather not reinvent the wheel.
