| |
I know there's a driver for this floating around (I found mine through search dell.com's pages), and I wondering if this is a driver that is in the "testing phase" before it's going into the kernel, or if it's just a driver provided by Dell? The driver I found, was both pre-compiled as a module, and given as source code. The only problem is that I can't get the pre-compiled version to work on other things than std. redhat 7.x kernel (ie. std. kernel when you install redhat, that is). I can't get the source code to compile either.
So, to sum up;
* Are there anyone testing/maintaing this driver, trying to get it into the standard kernel source? * If not, would it be rude for me to make it work with the latest kernels, and then submitt it? (I won't take credit for anything I haven't done, but since I haven't written the driver itself, I don't know what you guys think)
