Thanks for your answers, it sounds very straightforward. One more question: Currently I'm using the book Linux Device Drivers 3rd Edition (2005) as a reference, and it's discussing Kernel 2.6.10. Do you think that's still okay, or should I get/buy a more recent book on this topic, and which would you recommend? -- Grüße, Kai "In a world without walls and fences, who needs Windows and Gates?" _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
