The driver is intended for the EDT "polytouch" family touches, which are based on a focaltec controller. The current line of touches uses e.g. the ft5306 as well as the ft5406 focaltec controller. > It's preferable to have a specific string which another similar variant= s > can claim compatibility with (while also additionally having a more > specific string), as this makes it possible to handle variants more > specially in future, target workarounds, etc. I chose the driver name since I wanted to differentiate from other EDT touches, which used a different controller. With hindsight it was unfortunately confusing, since I get quite some request from people, who also have a device based on the focaltec controllers, but with a very different firmware (and communication protocol). They got tricked into thinking that this driver would be suitable... If I were to chose the name again I'd probably pick "edt-polytouch" or something like this. But I doubt that it is useful to change the name now= =2E Bye, Simon --=20 Simon Budig kernel concepts GmbH simon.budig-t93Ne7XHvje5bSeCtf/tX7NAH6kLmebB@public.gmane.org Sieghuetter Hauptweg 48 +49-271-771091-17 D-57072 Siegen --xqvuqOQtrhkAKdn4NtqigxkfFc2kKccsf Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Icedove - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlMqznIACgkQO2O/RXesiHCNyACbBPXVJSQzQv9OvjDS1iKaIFuE PtgAn0MD54DVQUguggi+oifaTxLL5xYx =QYF/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --xqvuqOQtrhkAKdn4NtqigxkfFc2kKccsf-- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
