| |
We need a major for a char device for our OSD device driver. Attached is a proposed patch for the Documentation/devices.txt and include/linux/major.h files.
I have allocated the *260* char device as it looked like the next available on the lanana.org web-site (http://lanana.org/docs/device-list/devices-2.6+.txt)
Any number will do. Please allocate a number for us
(See http:/open-osd.org for further information)
