A few years ago I wrote a driver for KS8841 and got it working (16-bit memory-mapped on PowerPC). I started with the Micrel driver, but as you know it's pretty ugly. Last week I dusted off that old driver and got it to compile with the latest U-boot, but wasn't able to test it because the company that I worked for is long gone. It's hopefully close to functional, but still has too many style issues to post publicly. I sent the driver to Douglas off-line, and am awaiting feedback. If you'd like, I can send it to you too. It'd be nice to have a single driver that handles different chips, but with configurable accessors.
Yes, please send me a copy! I'll take a look and see if it looks like it will work with the 8851.
I agree it would be quite nice if we could have a single driver.
