[Ps2hacking-devel] No source!

[YAEGASHI T. <t...@ke...>]

Hi,

I've noticed that sources of some kernel modules are not provided by
PS2 Linux kit.  They include:

	/lib/modules/2.2.1_ps2/misc/ps2cdvd.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_ps2/misc/ps2mc.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_ps2/misc/ps2pad.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_ps2/misc/ps2sd.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_t10000/misc/ps2cdvd.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_t10000/misc/ps2mc.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_t10000/misc/ps2pad.o
	/lib/modules/2.2.1_t10000/misc/ps2sd.o

They are owned by kernel-modules-2.2.1_ps2-6 package and its SRPM has
only tar'ed binaries.  It also has other binaries obviously under GPL,
which may become the license problem.

This means that we cannot get the specs for some important devices.
I'm afraid that this could discourage people's effort to port another
kernel (including the latest Linux, BSD, eCos) to PS2 here and there.

I suppose there are more files without source in the kit.  I asked
SCEI about this issue, hope I can get the answer in Monday.
