RE: Backports - v3.18-rc1 build problems

Hi Hauke,
	I am actually trying to find a driver for vendor ID : 625, product ID : 1026 & firmware 3.0 for linux kernel version - 2.6.35.
Backports-3.14.22-1 & earlier releases doesn't support this product ID. Backports - v3.18-rc1 seem to have the support for the device but doesn't seem to be building for 2.6.35.

Is there a plan to support this kernel version for this device?

Is there any restrictions or compatibility issues on 2.6.x kernels to support this device?

Regards,
Viplav

Hi Viplav,

starting with backports-3.15 we only support kernel versions >= 3.0. For kernel 3.6.35 you should try bcackports-3.14.22-1.
