Hi All,

I am a newbie in linux device driver and have written couple of char device driver using kmalloc (memory as device) I would like to write an Actual/Real PCI device driver and was wondering if any one could recommend any hardware that has spec and hardware openly available for such development execrise and is not complicated to implement.
I'd suggest having a look here:

If you haven't written a driver, you may have more luck starting with an existing code base that needs some work, rather than starting a new driver:

Or even helping out with one of the driver that is already in the "staging" portion of the kernel tree:

Hope that helps,
