Well yeah. Everybody hates seeing functionality which is useful to people go away. But the license has served us well thus far and if we're to go bending further than we have for practical reasons, it should be an up-front decision rather than a backdoor sneak-in. In this case, special-purpose hooks for a binary-only module are a no-no. Leaning on the binary driver vendor is the best approach although speaking realistically, someone needs to get down and implement a driver which uses the normal kernel APIs and which wraps the binary module (cf: nVidia driver). That doesn't sound too hard. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
