Re: [Cooker] Request: Speedtouch kernel integration
I was wondering if anyone who has the ability (because I certainly don't) to package RPMs could package up the speedtouch drivers for the kernel (insted of user space) The main thing you would need is either the bundle from http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/download/index.html or possibly just the kernel module (if the other parts are already in mandrake). which was merged in vanila linux-2.4.22pre1 or pre2 :) `modprobe speedtch` returns? best, svetljo Or the offical (and GPL'd) version from www.speedtouch.com Then drake could (which I think it now does) ask for the firmware or alternativly use the http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/speedtouch/speedtouch-1.2-beta2.tar.bz2 one.
