I was wondering if there is any documentation on porting high level device drivers from 2.4 to 2.6. I've looked at the changes in st.c and there seems to be more changes than are documented in either the 2.6 docbook or the lwn articles.

Thanks
Jay

Sorry for the double post. I just set this list up on my news server and introduced a loop. Should be fixed now.

There's no good guid on this. If you post the source to the list I could help your bringing it forward, though.

Sorry, can't. It's closed source. (not my choice, my employer) Thanks for the offer though.
