Hi everyone, I have an ADS5121 evaluation module from Freescale, and wonder if there's any Freescale engineer on this list working on the linux BSP for this processor/SoC/platform?
I have downloaded the latest alpha release of the BSP and found it to be completely unusable. I took some time to fix the framebuffer driver, and make console-fb work, I even sent patches to our Freescale contact, while I already suspected it to be completely useless, since the BSP is already lacking behind several months from actual Freescale code, and all those issues are most probably fixed already. Only problem: I can't seem to get the latest versions of it. I heared rumors they'll release a new version next week or so, but I fear it will also lack behind development, and fixing bugs myself or contributing code will be a useless waste of time! Is there any Freescale engineer on this list that can help out, or at least clarify the reasons behind closed-doors open-source software development?? On the other hand, I also whish to contact other furtunate owners of PPC5121e-based hardware to join forces on linux-kernel driver development. If Freescale won't collaborate, I'd even consider forking their code, if necessary. Greetings, -- David Jander Protonic Holland. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded
