Though some of these chips live under a few different numbers. it does seem more understandable, but now that it has been used for so long I guess it would be nasty to change right now. Almost every one here knows that menelaus is the companion chip for omap2 hw. Personally, I never recall the correct number designation for menelaus. I mean, I don't really have any problems in renaming the whole driver from menelaus to twl92230c.c but I can't help asking myself why. If everybody thinks it's a better choice, then why not ;-) -- balbi
