If you think it's non-trivial, and I had suspected that it would be device dependent, I guess I'm not going to be able to come up with an elegant solution. I guess it will have to wait until I have more time to beat my head against the wall.
I looked at the ioctl binary and was stymied by the arguments which didn't really match other examples I found. I think you have to pass data to STDIN.
Thanks for the tips!
