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 been able to improve the w100fb driver and make it platform independent. Ian Molton has then added support for the very similar 3220 and w3200 chipsets. This driver 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. Initially, I'm just posting a link to the patch as one is quite large (140kb). I've split the patch into two parts - the first for the w100 core changes and the second to add the corgi support code. http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/patches/w100_core-r0.patch http://www.rpsys.net/openzaurus/patches/w100_corgi-r0.patch After any comments I'll cc them in full to the list as I submit them. There is a slight further complication as the corgi patch is dependent on some changes I've recently submitted to the input people in the corgi touchscreen driver... I apologise for the white space changes in the patch. I did try and keep them separate but the patches became unmanageable. If this is a major problem, I can try and separate those changes out again...
