This is an open device...even down to the kernel. Whether we allow this or not, if somebody wants to do it, it can happen ;-) -Sean
Um, the only thing I see as a problem, since you said in a previous email ( or later, I'm not sure, this is the order I read them) that all the hardware requires an non-disclosure, either you're going to need to provide access to the power up/sleep commands thru the drivers, or reverse engineering this is going to suck, assuming there's even a software sleep command(I'd assume so, but normally that begets bad things) even a nice constant for the commands, and a passthrough character driver would be really nice. I'm not asking you to go farther than your agreement, but if you could map the system commands for the major components into the driver, that would be a wonderful help Thank you so much, Sean, for making this all possible, it's really a wonderful thing --Jeff
