Hello,
    Over the last couple of months I have been learning to write device
drivers.  I have read a lot of books, and been to the SCO device driver
writers class.  So far things have been going fairly well, I have a driver 
up and running, but I would like to learn more about debugging drivers.  So 
far the only debuging method that I have used much is inserting printfs 
everywhere so that I can figure out what it is doing.

    Is there any good reading material on device driver debugging?  What 
other debugging tricks are there that I should try to figure out?  

    I am doing my driver development on both SCO Unix and Xenix (386).


				thanks in advance
