I just replied to your other email on the list - Sorry about not contacting
you back for a bit after my two initial emails. I am very busy indeed, but
I have been searching actively for information on your ICS 9159M, and couldn't
find any so far. Sengan is going to ask at Cyrix; if anyone has information,
this would be very appreciated.

Thanks :) Be certain that you'll be testing the driver as soon as I can
get info on that clockchip. As I told you in PM, there is not much to
write to get it to work - a few minutes worth of code. But I won't be
able to test it.

Now all I need is the register-level info of your clock... :/
