The fact that is used to work in some vendor kernel is irrelevant.

On April 2 just after 2.6.16 was out I announced my intension to remove the board in http://www.linux-mips.org/cgi-bin/mesg.cgi?a=linux-mips&i=20060402194822.GA26358%40linux-mips.org Nobody raised hand to take care of the maintenance of any of these boards, thus http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/ITE-8172G also marks the board as to be deleted. > It's just an info on ite-chip works, to remove it from kernel tree ..... > decision is up to you : ). There is more that just that wrong with the board support. And if the fact that it is was broken does not even result bug reports this is another indicator the board a board should go. The usual reminder: patches to fix the issues will be accepted. Ralf
