Here's a first look at the G13 driver I've been playing around with:
git://g13.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/g13/g13
I've been building the driver out-of-tree and this is my first (untested)
shot at moving it in-tree. There are still a number of things to do (and
clean up) in the driver but it is rather functional.
I'll test it later today and update the repo as necessary, but I thought
I'd throw it out there now.
Here's the repo for the support libraries:
svn co https://g13.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/g13/trunk g13
The Gtk and Gtkmm libs are empty for now, but I have tested the g13 and
g13-cairo libs.
The g13 library uses udev for device discovery and exports many of the
sysfs attributes in a little bit friendlier API. See the 'utilities'
directory and 'examples/g13-draw-checkerboard' for examples of the API.
The g13-cairo library similarly provides an API that bridges the
framebuffer functions of the g13 library with cairo making it a little
more friendly to draw directly on the framebuffer. See
'examples/cairo/g13-cairo-helloworld' for an animated example drawing with
cairo to the g13 framebuffer.
Feedback, comments, critiques and flames are welcome.

Nice, but sending a patch to review it is best, don't point people at a
random git tree and expect they will look at the code.
Also, please run the driver through the scripts/checkpatch.pl script,
and fix all of the things it reports, before submitting it.
