For a USB device I'd suggest you take a look at libusb for writing a userspace driver as opposed to a kernelspace one. Userspace drivers for USB devices are often preferable. Also take a look at a few documents in the Documentation/ dir in the kernel source: HOWTO SubmittingDrivers CodingStyle If you can get docs for the device (or are able to reverse engineer it) and get a driver done, more power to you. :-) > > Cheers everybody, and thanks for sharing! =) > > / Benjamin > > > Arjan van de Ven wrote: [snip] Top-posting is generally frawned upon on the list as it's annoying and makes threads hard to read.
