Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed List-Id: Linux on Embedded PowerPC Developers Mail List List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Hi, I have a XUPV2Pro Xilinx Embedded PPC405 board which is similar in many respects to the ML3XX series. With good support in the kernel source tree, I was easily able to compile the 2.4.26 linux kernel to run on it. However, I wanted 2.6 kernel to run on it. For some reason, the Xilinx drivers and the OCP code went missing in the 2.6 kernel tree. Does anyone know why did 2.6 kernel drop the Xilinx ML300 board drivers (SysACE, Ethernet, Frame Buffer) which were present in the 2.4 kernel code tree? It is because of porting issues? Anyway, I have ported the old 2.4 Xilinx drivers (Sysace and Ethernet) to 2.6.17.1 kernel. If anyone is interested to test them, please let me know. I shall put out a patch soon... Thanks, -Ameet
