I synchronise it once in a while to keep it running. Splitting the code up into front-end and back-end is more of a hassle than I assumed. I'm struggling with the old include files, the data structures (where used) and the linux interface protocols in general. A version that does not even compile (NO USE FOR END USERS !) http://linuxtv.org/hg/~jhoogenraad/rtl2831-sepfront I have synched the version with the version on my harddisk. Part of the code is already recycled into the kernel. As Alistair noticed, this is now blocking for getting the support for the stick into the main line.
