In Linux Device Drivers 3rd edition some code is given for a `scull` driver.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work for the 2.6 kernel.

Anybody know of a getting started guide for noobs? (Keyword: noobs).

I'd like to create a driver that plops an `echo_dummy` in `/dev` and let's
me echo a string through it:

echo "bob" > /dev/echo_dummy
cat /dev/echo_dummy
"bob"

and then build up from there.


Thanks!


P.S. Yes I'm cross-posting. I figure if students don't know students,
experienced developers might.
