It's not just me and Tony, that are interested in this :) Ok. If you agree to help with the DSI part in the future, I have no problems applying these (after review and testing, of course). My worry is not only with complicating Laurent's work towards common DRM drivers, but also with the maintenance burden this brings. Keeping DSI working in the future may be challenging due to the lack of users and (easy to use) boards. I do have a N950 and OMAP4 Blaze Tablet, though, so I'm able to test both command and video modes. But getting those boot up is not always trivial, especially for the blaze tablet. I've also spent many hours this year debugging obscure OMAP3 DSS HW issues, so my opinion about adding more OMAP3 DSS features may be a bit biased =). I'll have a look at this series when I find a bit of spare time. -- Texas Instruments Finland Oy, Porkkalankatu 22, 00180 Helsinki. Y-tunnus/Business ID: 0615521-4.
