The card uses a polled interface (no interrupt is needed), and unless you've changed the jumper on it, has its interface at 0x2e8-0x2ef. If you did change the jumper then its at 0x2a8-0x2af. For much more information beyond that you'll need the technical specs from Pulse Data, I'm not sure if they're still requiring people to sign an NDA to get that or not.

I'm actually thinking about trying to write a driver for the keynote myself, but I'm not sure where to start. I probably have to write some kind of init function or something, but it seems like some of the docs talk about assembler, so I'm not sure how to do that under c, or if I even have to. It talks about registers and such I believe. Anyway, do you know how to find the keynote, and write to it, or a piece of hardware for that matter. I've done a little with the doubletalk, but I just wrote to the serial port, with /dev I believe. I just opened a file for read write, but I don't know if that's the way to go in this case.
