Hi Linus,

I'd like to confirm that DSS2 is used in Nokia both internally and in
production, namely in N900. Other people use it in production as well,
e.g. Gumstix.

DSS2 is basically de-facto standard display sub-system in the OMAP3
world. It is mature, well-written and maintained, being around for at
least 1+ year, and open from almost very beginning.

ACK and Tested-by from my side. The OMAP maintainer (Tony) gave his Ack
as well as many other people, e.g., in this thread:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125146241831217&w=2

DSS2 is in linux-next for some time as well.

Thanks.

Ah, my mistake. I'm new to getting patches merged and the process
involved. Somehow I thought the patches you have went already in, and as
I didn't get any replies for couple of week, I pursued another route.
Sorry about the confusion.

Let's continue this with less audience, no need to bother everyone with
this.

 Tomi

That's because it came very late and conflicts considerably with
changes which are already pending.

Confused.  These conflicts heavily with the changes which I've already
queued, does it not?  Ones which were queued way earlier than this
material.

If so, why on earth did you send a pull request, knowing that it would
trash my tree?

I guess that was because there were some merge conflicts at that point, but
those are sorted out now.

Ack, it would be nice to get this merged.

Linus,

Here's the new display subsystem and framebuffer driver for OMAP2/3.

The driver has been reviewed on linux-omap and linux-fbdev-devel, and is in
use, for example, on N900, Beagle Board and Overo boards. We have an ACK for
the OMAP parts from Tony Lindgren, who maintains the OMAP platform.

We have gotten positive feedback about the driver, for example in this thread:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125171081901820&w=2

The driver is actively maintained and developed further, and I have already a
bunch of patches on top of these patches, but I would like to get the big core
driver merged first. After the driver is merged, other people can send patches
to LCD drivers and board files to enable the new display subsystem on their
boards.

Andrew said 2-3 weeks ago that he'll merge the driver (after he has looked
through it), but he hasn't responded since then. I'm guessing he's quite busy.


Just in case it matters, here is my redundant confirmation that we are
successfully using this piece of software for about a year.
