If you like, feel free to (re)start an argument with Linus on the ambient light sensor front. Or see that thread for yet another round about discussion of where these sensors should be. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/1/367 Basically if it is primarily an input device for human interaction, see if Dmitry is willing to take it into input (though note he may quite rightly take some convincing!) Otherwise, I'm happy to take more general sensors into IIO, but obviously that is still in staging and evolving reasonably quickly at the moment (large number of abi clean up patches half way through cleanup at the mo.) Otherwise, misc with the intent to sweep them all up when an agreed upon subsystem is in place. > > I'll bounce the emc1403 onto lm-sensors. > > Thanks > Alan > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
