Yes, I happen to know Hauppauge very well. I'm very happy to see that the driver is being improved but I'll be even happier to see actual testers report success before any of this stuff is merged. My concern is the vast amount of change coming through this list and expected to be merged blindly into the kernel. If we have no testers then, at least for Hauppauge products, we'll find some. Let me know if I can help with this. Until then nothing should be blindly merged that could regress existing product support. Mauro? -- Steven Toth - Kernel Labs http://www.kernellabs.com
