Using git bisect, I always seemed to up in with a working copy that wouldn't
build and I don't know git well enough to fix that. 

So - I started with 2.6.29 and manually applied the rt2870 commits until I was
able to isolate the problem. I also built a kernel with a checkout from 2.6.29
+ all rt2870 commits included in 2.6.30 EXCEPT the one causing this issue,
which resulted in a working rt2870sta modules.

By "rt2870 commits", I mean all commits with changes in the
drivers/staging/rt2870 directory.

The problem is in commit d44ca7af9e79abf4e80514583734cffed1117ee1

Can you send a new patch with this merged together?

dl2k does not work


I sent e-mails to different sales/support/etc. e-mail addresses I found on the website but no response. I
need one DGE 550SX? and another card (fiber?NIC 1000base) ?to test with. I'm going to buy one of them, but
does anyone have another one that I can work with?

- Purush

I do not know, try contacting them to see if they will, it can't hurt to
ask.

good luck,

email posted to mailing list not retrieved

Hi,

I'm subscribed to devel mailing list but I don't get an email if
someone post something to list.
What I get is just daily summary of conversations.

Do I miss something or should I set something in properties?

Thanks

Marek

Yes, one of the mailman options controls whether or not to receive
daily digests.  If you follow the link at the bottom of this message,
http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
You'll see that one of the options reads, "Would you like to receive
list mail batched in a daily digest?"  It's likely that your current
choice is "yes".

GigEVision support

Hi,

I think Linux can really benefit from an open kernel-based GigEVision 
driver.

GigEVision[1] is a proprietary closed standard for controlling 
high-quality video cameras over gigabit-ethernet. These cameras are 
often used in industrial vision software. This driver can be a great 
benefit for the industrial vision industry, because using small embedded 
Linux systems is in the trend there.

Some manufacturers provide closed-source drivers for Linux because of 
the NDA which they signed at the AIA (Automated Imaging Association).
[2], [3]
Some provide no drivers but I think these cameras will work with a 
generic driver because they have to implement the standard to get certified.

I have written a proof-of-concept userlevel driver by means of sniffing 
and reverse-engineering, but some features are missing and I think I 
will need some help to implement the rest. Btw. a kernel driver would 
perform a lot better.

I hope this list is the correct place for this suggestion, feel free to 
forward it to another place.

Regards,
	Falco
