I can only find the post from Feb 22th, which includes this glitch.

Yeah I know about that "thing". It makes my eyes bleed, though. But the author of this document pointed me to this: http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Fitipower That seems pretty useful, in addition to the existing crap driver. > The driver is not working with recent kernels, but probably you can > extract the information needed to implement a proper kernel driver for > fc0011, using the fc0012 driver written by Hans as a reference. Yeah after looking at things it seems best to have a separate module. I already started to put the boilerplate code together and I'm currently putting the various device specific bits in place. --=20 Greetings, Michael.
