We should not include this driver in the kernel. Rather than adding additional platform-specific drivers, we should be migrating away from those that we already have to simpler generic drivers for video and hot-keys -- where the platform-dependent (naming) is done in user-space where it is more extensible and supportable.
We've already got video.c, and I believe that we should start to migrate to something like Luming's hot-key driver (see earlier acpi-devel posts) in 2.6.12. If a platform has some unique feature that no other platform in the world has, then that justifies a platform specific driver for that unique feature. But for the common features, the community will be better served by the simpler generic kernel drivers that work on more systems. thanks, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
