Hi! As some of you know I have been working on a new console system for 2.5.X. Now that 2.5.X is very very close I really like to work together with various people from various trees to pull this together. The two biggest changes I have done is: 1) A new fbdev api with is much simpler and allows fbdev devices to exist without a console system. Nice for embedded devices. 2) We also will be moving the various input devices including keyboards over to the input api. 3) Also I plan to work on a new serial api based on Russell King's work to work nicely with the input layer. The serial layer will be more like the parallel port layer. So what I need is the latest drivers from people so they can be ported over. I also want to know what people needed for the fbdev layer as well as the input layer. I see some email about DDC support for example. Please let me know what you need. Thank you. |
