FYI... I've updated the pinmux section of the OMAP wishlist wiki with this rough plan from Tony. http://elinux.org/OMAP_wishlist Kevin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
