Hi All,
Here is a first RFC for the q8 tablet hw-manager I've been talking about for a while now.

The touchscreen part is finished, I'll start working on the accelerometer bits next.
This at least partially overlaps with the "overlay manager" just posted. A dev board having different devices attached and a production device have 2nd source components are not really different problems. We need a common solution and can't have each platform making up their own scheme.
To follow up discussions at ELC-E, I agree that we need a common solution (if this has to happen in the kernel rather than in an earlier stage of the boot process).
Otherwise, we're creating pseudo-board-files, and a whole new set of problems for ourselves.
Thanks
Mark.
