Subject: [patch] v4l: documentation update
Date: Mon, 5 Apr 2004 14:41:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040405124103.GA30293@bytesex.org> (raw)

  Hi,

This patch updates the documentation for the v4l drivers.

I'd like also remove the Documentation/video4linux/bttv/Mod*.conf files,
how to do that best?  Tell Linus to "bk remove" them?  Just mail a GNU
patch which does?

  Gerd
