Hi, Since publishing the isp116x-hcd, a number of people have had trouble getting it working. Part of this trouble has been unavoidable, because the isp116x chips are mostly used in embedded settings, where platform details must be explicitly specified. This is in contrast with initialization of PCI devices, for example.
However, part of the trouble could be avoided by providing less configuration options that people can set in their platform setup code. I have learned that people don't care much about the ability to precisely control the device, they just want the damn thing working. Now I am considering, which configuration options could be dropped. One of the things I am planning is to support only one root hub port powering mode. There exist three: - always powered - ganged switching (there are max. 2 ports on isp116x) - per-port power switching Would there be a reason to support any other mode than per-port power switching too? Olav PS. If anyone cares, we can discuss other planned changes too. Just speak up. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
