Is your imon driver fully compatible with the lirc_imon in the display part ? It would be very helpful to add a parameter for disabling the IR Part, I have many users which are using only the display part. -- Helmut Auer, hel...@helmutauer.de -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
