Re: [Lcd4linux-devel] Driver for dpf-ax

[Ondrej W. <ond...@gm...>]

Hi,

I would also strongly encourage you to integrate the dpf-ax driver into 
lcd4linux. I tried to help with the patch I sent in some months ago 
because the dpf-ax driver from your repository was not compatible any 
more with the latest lcd4linux version (which I needed because of the 
MPD plugin). And it took me quite some time to make all the necessary 
changes to make everything build together. Therefore I wanted to share 
my changes with other people facing the same problem. Although the 
project does still seem to be maintained (there was some tiny patch 2 
month ago), contributions sent to this mailing list are not really 
discussed.

Since your driver is mainly (or exclusively?) used by lcd4linux, it 
makes perfect sense to integrate it. It will make life easier for a lot 
of people (including me, of course). I don't think there is a problem 
with your 3 files approach. I can see that currently there are some 
drivers with two files (.c and .h).

Keep up the good work.

Ondrej
