If my memory serves me well I once sent a patch to Chuck that added it and some other stuff from the trunk. So the driver in 2.2.1 package was mostly the same as in the trunk because of this patch. It seems to me that something happened with this patch in 2.2.2 package (because 2.2.2 still lacks the new phoenix subdriver). So you see, it was actually a downgrade. The thing that confused me at first is that the 2.2.2 version log tells that the agiler subdriver is used. But this is just an error in log text. In fact it uses agiler_old subdriver which doesn't work with some models (like Artin's). Since this is already an official release, I can't fix it. @Arnaud: when will be the next? :) I think phoenix subdriver should be there. -- Alexander
