Thread: [Ipodlinux-devel] USB Driver

What would it take to get a USB driver working?

David

Not sure... I haven't looked at the USB stuff at all.  The hard part (?)
is mapping the device and its registers.  The device itself is known I
think but how its wired up in the iPod isn't.

The big question though is what could you do with the driver...  Unless
it has "on-the-go" support I suspect it only does USB client (?) which
means you couldn't connect other client devices only hosts (e.g. a PC).

If it could act as a host and you could plug your USB
keyboard/mouse/digital camera that would be interesting.

cheers,
bern.

If it was possible to mod the thing to support USB, I bet someone
would be able to charge a good amount of cash to perform the mod and
get many interested customers.  (Though I sometimes overgeneralize
from my own tastes... a bit...)
