Thanks Lazarman; understood. I was just wondering if anyone could give some guidance (or an indication of viability) on patching the RCN kernel with the TI D_CAN driver files. I'm fairly confident modifying config options and recompiling the kernel etc, but have no experience with the process of adding new features which this would appear to be.
