tm6010 development repository

[Kevin Wells]

Hi Mauro,

I've started trying to understand the code in the following repository:

    http://www.linuxtv.org/hg/~mchehab/tm6010/

I have a few patches I would like to apply. How should I do this?

    * Should I e-mail patches to you?
    * Should I find somewhere to host my repository and get you to pull
them?

If I need to host my repository do you have any suggestions as to where?

Kevin

Agreed, this chipset needs some love and attention. I have some patches also 
stacked up, so - this is a tree I've been meaning to get back to.

Submit the patches to the list and I'll try to get some time to create and 
maintain a ~stoth/tm6010 tree. I think I can get the nova-s-usb2 running with 
just a little effort.

Thanks,

- Steve

Thanks Steve. Sorry for the slow reply. I'm doing this in my limited 
spare time.

Patches to follow. Nothing exciting. Just trying to make the code more 
robust. Patches are very granular. Let me know if that doesn't work for you.

Knowing the driver works on the nova-s-usb2 would be encouraging. I'm 
trying to get it to work on an hvr-900h.

I'll merge those with some patches I have here. hvr-900h analog part is working
with a some troubles on the experimental tree I have here. A good thing to do,
after I merge yours and my patches, is to convert it to the new v4l2 dev/subdev
interface. I suspect that this will solve several bugs we currently have with
the i2c interface of this driver.

I intend to do this later this week, after the end of the merge window. For
now, I still have lots of patches to review, in order to submit for 2.6.30.

Thanks Kevin.

Mauro,

Let me know when you've done this and I'll clone your tree and look at the 
nova-s-usb2 issues.

Thanks,
