Yes, it is easy if you know what changes are needed to be done :) Why not port to .29 instead of the obsolete .27 kernel? > I want to know what are the architectural changes in 2.6.24 and 2.6.27 > which could affect the drivers. > > How difficult could it be for porting these drivers > audio,video,usb,mmc from 24 kernel to 27. There have been tens of thousands of kernel changes between those two versions. Do you have a pointer to your drivers to see how much work this would entail? Why are the drivers not already in the main kernel source tree? If they were, they would have been automatically ported for you. thanks, greg k-h --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ unsubscribe: [email protected] website: http://groups.google.com/group/android-kernel -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
