RE: Status of RMI4 drivers?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Sorry for top-posting on this - I'm travelling and don't have access to a proper mail client.

My work on synaptics-rmi4 has been on hold pending the uprev and some outstanding patches being either rejected or accepted.  Dmitry - if there's something that can be done on our end to move things forward, let me know.  I'll be back in the office on the 14th, and can give any issues that need to be addressed top priority.

Thanks,
Chris

I was supposed to uprev the driver to the latest kernel and start
merging it, unfortunately last month and a half was quite a mess.
Hopefully now I should have more time since I can do bunch of this
work during normal hours.
