hi, i bought device (i.e. usb frame grabber) that works with this driver. for now i have manually-compiled module for this that works fine, but in a long term i'd prefer to have this module in distribution kernel so i won't have to do this all over again each time new kernel arrives with dist-upgrade (i use debian/testing). since it is kernel part any way i think effort of adding this module is minimal and it's always nice if device works straight after plugging it in (this hardware is easily accessible, for a low price in my country). IMHO this update could appear along with next linux-image-2.6xxx package release. -- pozdrawiam serdecznie / best regards, bartek szurgot http://www.baszerr.org (public key: http://www.baszerr.org/lib/exe/fetch.php/about_me/basz_pub_key.txt) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
