The device differs from hmc in many ways, for example, it has a higher range upto +/- 8.1 gauss, and has separate gain controls for X/Y and Z. Since both are different devices, with different capabilities, i don't think we can merge them together. The lsm303dlh datahsheet is available here http://www.st.com/internet/com/TECHNICAL_RESOURCES/TECHNICAL_LITERATURE/DATASHEET/CD00260288.pdf However this has been superseded with "lsm303dlhc" version, will add support to this version too later, though they are trivial.. http://www.st.com/internet/com/TECHNICAL_RESOURCES/TECHNICAL_LITERATURE/DATASHEET/DM00027543.pdf srinidhi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-iio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
