No. For 2.4 kernels devfs can be used, but having a registred range is required. But please note that i will not do anything to support 2.4 kernels. I have no box left that runs such a kernel and very little interest to spend time in it. Though, with a working 2.6 driver, it is not much effort to write a 2.4 kernel. Additionaly a 2.4. driver can very easily support 2.0 and 2.2 kernels with just a handfull of #ifdef's. (Have a look at http://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk/drivers/mga_vid.c as an example) Attila Kinali -- 心をこめて聞け心をこめて話せ _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
