intelfb maintainer

intelfb maintainer

[Iban Rodríguez]

    Hello,

    I have found a problem in the intelfb driver. I've tried to send an
e-mail to Sylvain Meyer (maintainer) but I've received the mail back
because of 'user unknown'. Could you tell me who I can send the report?

    Thank you very much.

    Iban Rodríguez.

You can use:
./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f ./drivers/video/intelfb/

It gives many people.

intelfb is mostly deprecated in favour of kernel modesetting drivers,

I also used to help maintain it, but its mostly to be left for dead,

linux-fbdev-devel@lists.sf.net is probably the best plaec to send stuff.
(but don't be surprised if nobody really cares).

And if you get no response after a while send it to Linus with a note
indicating what Dave said. If there is no maintainer to go around then
sometimes you have to go directly unless anyone sees a problem with the
patch (or become maintainer ...)
