Most likely because what you've written doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Your email address also makes it look like you ignore it :). > I am a long-time Fedora user since Fedora Core 1 and I am looking at installing Fedora 22 on a MS Surface Pro 3 with Type Cover. But in order to do that (and to have the cover recognized), I noticed that the file linux-***/drivers/hid/hid-ids.h in the kernel from kernel.org is missing. This is however available at kcbench (which is the Missing from where? What package are you referring to, because the file is certainly in the kernel sources. > kernel compiled for benchmarking). I was wondering what the reasoning behind this is, because we can not have the Type Cover 3 recognized with the LiveCD while installing (and so installing without a keyboard is a major hassle). Not to mention, kcbench draws in over 500 MB with a dnf update. Maybe you could explain a bit more what you're trying to do here. The existence of a .h file doesn't provide a device driver. What actual device driver are you looking for, and why do you think you need the hid-ids.h file? > Also, is this the correct arena for discussing linux-firmware? If not, I apologize.

Is it because of non-OSS issues? Or should I file a bug/feature request? I don't know immediately. It might very likely be because Marvell hasn't sent the updated files to the upstream linux-firmware tree maintainers yet. You should probably ask Marvell why the sd8801* and sd8787* files are not upstream yet. josh _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
