Subject: [patch 6/8] w100fb: Rewrite for platform independence
Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2005 10:46:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1122630414.7747.95.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
The code w100fb was based on was horribly Sharp SL-C7x0 specific
and there was little else that could be done as I had no access to
anything else with a w100 in it. There is no real documentation
about this chipset available.
Ian Molton has access to other platforms with the w100 (Toshiba
e-series) and so between us, we've improved w100fb and made it
platform independent. Ian Molton also added support for the
very similar w3220 and w3200 chipsets.
There are a lot of changes here and it nearly amounts to a rewrite
of the driver but it has been extensively tested and is being used
in preference to the original driver in the Zaurus community. I'd
therefore like to update the mainline code to reflect this.

The patch is large so for LKML I'm linking to it:
