Hi Luc, > > It's described, in great detail, here: > > http://linux-sunxi.org/New_Device_howto > > > > Luc Verhaegen. Yes, I already read the wiki!. ;) The question is: What chance of working?. Or is there a possibility that this blocked?. I know nothing about the hardware. is more or less standard?. Or can have something strange and never be able make it work? Second, I'm interested in doing in some moment with the main kernel. This part is not described in the wiki. About port fex to device-tree/mainline not say anything (Just describe the current work. ;-) So from your experience. Worth buying? or is difficult to make it work?
