* 5.  SETUP UTILITY REVISION HISTORY 
****************************************************************************

r1.07 12/01/2005

- The report descriptor is no longer hard coded in the driver, it's only read from the registry.  It's put in the registry by the inf file.
- Only the keyboard collection is in the report descriptor, all other collections have been removed.  WHQL was failing because there was a consumer control in the report decriptor.  Richard thinks that the MS class driver possibly opens the consumer collection causing WHQL to fail.
- The mapping table was modified to use a keyboard mapping for Media Player.
- The carrier bit is now set by defailt for RC6.

r1.06 11/22/2005 

Added RemoteName to the registry.  This identifies the
remote.  It gets copied from setup.opt. 

r1.05 10/05/2005

Added support for the Acer ZB1 remote.

r1.04 10/05/2005

Bug fix. Load a report descriptor from setup.opt when
the driver isn't installed and an error message is displayed.

r1.03 12/16/2004

Initial version.
