I have yet to find a Linux Device Driver book that isn't heavily skewed towards x86. Some of this stuff is either specific to powerpc or relevant a subset of non-x86 platforms. I think Google, the linuxppc-dev mailing list, related IRC channel and lxr.linux.no have been the sources I've mostly used learning about Linux on powerpc. -- Martyn Welch (Principal Software Engineer) | Registered in England and GE Intelligent Platforms | Wales (3828642) at 100 T +44(0)127322748 | Barbirolli Square, Manchester, E martyn.we...@ge.com | M2 3AB VAT:GB 927559189 _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
