Hi all,
to reach the goal of having the 2.6 Kernel completet I want to first report the actual status of 2.6.20: UCB1300 related stuff: - audio -> NO (but there is code from 2.4) - touchscreen OK (allready mainline) - switches OK (I will send a patch to rmk to get it into mainline) here [1] is the patch. - battary status NO (but shouldn't be that hard to implement) S3 latch stuff: This latch is used to switch some GPIOs and the LEDs I also think that it is responsible for the power button. But I didn't found time to figgure it out. There was a patch for 2.4 which created files in /dev to access the options this would be a nice Idea for 2.6, too. Else there is the possibility to give it to the input dev system (the button and the leds). MQ200 (Video) There is a driver from zecke but it has a little bug[2]. Here [3] is the driver as a 2.6.20 patch. The first target will be to debug it. Later it would be great to have hardware acceleration. This part is quite difficult - I think. Smartcard support: NO there is no smartcard support but i have read about a old 2.4 driver here on the forum [4]. Mods support: MMC/SD NO Bluetooth NO Hopefuly we can get all the parts done and get it into mainline. I will try to do as much as I can but my time and my C skills are limited. So any help is very welcome. regards nice 1 http://opensimpad.org/images/8/81/Linux-2....itches.patch.gz 2 If you boot your SIMpad and there is a crapy Tux boot a 2.4 Kernel first. This will bring the SIMpad in a state where the 2.6 driver will work. You have to do this everytime your SIMpad was disconnected from its accu. 3 http://opensimpad.org/images/5/57/Linux-2.....mq200.patch.gz 4 https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=13426 |

thanks for this update!
I don't know what 2.4's audio code is worth, has anyone ever /heard/ it running? BlueTooth should work out of the box in 2.6, since it uses the second serial interface. |

Do you think alsa will be the right choice for a new audio driver?

If you are interested in the ongoing of the 2.6 development please check this site [1]. It takes too much time to keep it in sync with this forum.

Hey Mr. Nice,
QUOTE(mr_nice @ Mar 20 2007, 09:12 PM) If you are interested in the ongoing of the 2.6 development please check this site [1]. It takes too much time to keep it in sync with this forum. regards nice 1 http://opensimpad.org/index.php/SIMpad_Kernel_2.6 i know you're in lack of time. But let me ask one question ![]() Is there any simple .gz package i may grab to have quick look into the complete patch? Doesn't matter if it is a pre-copy of the OE stuff or something like that! Edit: I found something at opensimpad If you got a newer one, tell me! Thnx scholbert |

Hi Scholbert,
you can found the actual development state (for kernel-2.6.21) at http://slackpad.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc...nel-2.6/2.6.21/ And sorry, there is no single patch file for now. I hope there is something helpfully for your Skeye Sl Pad project ![]() Greets, mrdata |

Hi mister_data,
thanks for the hint. You're right, i started working on the 2.6 kernel implementation for the skeye pad. Some parts are similar to the simpad (e.g CS3), other's are not (e.g. graphic) ![]() At least the simpad patches will help me to navigate through the kernel and you helped me to navigate the web ![]() Regards, scholbert |
