I've sent a patch that's a first step to convert the driver away from it a few weeks ago but didn't get any response. I urgently need testers to keep the driver for 2.6.17+. Else it'll be marked broken until we get a person to help testing the changes needed to resurrect it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
