Just that I've seen video input and DSP bridge patches getting nearly mergeable, so that ancient -- or more to the point, non-mainline -- kernels should stop being the only option for folk who need their DaVinci systems to do Real Work (video processing). Of course, I'm told there are "supported" kernels more recent than 2.6.10 (which shipped late 2004) too. If it shipped after much mid-2006, it should have some version of the RTC framework ... and lots of other bits that have improved since 2.6.10 shipped. - Dave _______________________________________________ Davinci-linux-open-source mailing list [email protected] http://linux.davincidsp.com/mailman/listinfo/davinci-linux-open-source
