Why does that not happen? Wouldn't it be easier for your consumers? Plug in your card and voila, it works "out of the box"?

I really really like the DD hardware I have, but always having to rebuild everything with a new kernel is just not my idea of how hardware should run in 2014 on Linux anymore. > Regards, > Ralph Regards, Bjoern -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
