Tim, I have already submitted both the fex file and a u-boot patch for inclusion in the sunxi repository. The problem is, the wiki clearly states that 'no sunxi-boards patches are accepted without a complete device page in place'. However, given Luc's mentality, I'm not at all confident that he will ever regard my device page as being 'complete'. Therefore, it's quite likely that my patches will never be included in the repository, and never be seen. However, several people here have indicated (entirely reasonably) that they cannot help me until they see the contents of the stock fex file. So I figured I had two ways of dealing with this impasse - either attach the fex file to one of these threads, or add it to the device page as plain text. Neither choice is ideal. But on balance, I felt the latter was preferable because at least the information would then be available in one central place. Incidentally, there are a few other things that I wanted to upload. For example a script I wrote to transfer the stock Android image to an SD card. But there's no obvious place to put stuff like that except the wiki. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
