Subject: [QUESTION] LVDS / MIPI

I have checked the Kernel Source and the Internet.

Not much if any support for LVDS / MIPI.

This would be for Device Drivers under
Multimedia and Video Capture.

Any Discussion?

Is the response to this question something to the effect
of "sure... Start writing a driver any time you want..."

Thanks.

What exactly do you need support for? MIPI CSI (2/3) capture?

Thanks

To be most specific, I am looking for support for
the LVDS/MIPI interface on the Gumstix Duovero.

They have a 2-lane, and a 5-lane LVDS interface.

To the best of my knowledge at this point,
they are GPIO lines dedicated to that purpose.

Thanks.
