Hi!

	New pre-version of driver contains support for persistant data.
Please, report me if this feature is working. I hope that this idea isn't
very bad... If you want use kerneld/kmod you can now insert only 'persist'
module at boot time (can't be autocleaned!!!). This module contains
functions for data store and restore. Data is identified by key (string).
	With latest 2.0.34pre kernels and 2.1 kernels drivers detects if
persist module is loaded thus persist module can't be present in system
if user doesn't want it. If it's not loaded - no data are stored..
	There are some fixes for compilation under latest 2.1 SMP kernels,
too. OK. It's last big change in 0.1.0 driver (I hope ;-))).
