Hi Martin/Peter,
Hi Mani,
It'd be nice to keep a relevant public list in CC, in this case
linux-iio or kernelnewbies
This is Mani, working on MMA8452 Accelerometer with Beaglebone black.
I just wanna know whether the TODO : 'Orientation events' task for
this Accelerometer is undergoing or not. If not, can I work on the
same under your mentoring.
It's not done and not being worked on (afaik).
For your kind info, I'm a recent undergraduate working in a Product
development company called MathWorks. I'm learning Linux Kernel
development as a hobby. Also, I thought taking up this task would be a
good starting point for Linux Kernel Development.
I doubt this is a very good first task. iirc, you'd have to work with
with Jon, Daniel, Peter ... on an interface first. This is no gyrosensor
where iio has a proper user interface for orientation. That means,
coming up with your own, to discuss, and have example implementations
ready.
If this task is already done, kindly suggest me a task to help me get
involved with Linux community.
This mma8452 driver supports a few devices. Which one do you have?
Depending on that, I may have a simpler task for you.
Please share your views.
Thanks,
Mani.
