Well that's just fine - anyone care to tell me how to do that :-) I've never been in this sort of position before... > And thanks appear in order to Realtek. Well yes. I've thanked them - but I'd also like to see them get some community recognition. I see this as an important step... > Wouldn't it possible to ask them to release it themselves to the lkml > with proper attribution (and, as they see fit, with or without support) ? I don't think it'd be wise to go down that path; I didn't even manage to get a datasheet out of them (which is how this all started). They've sent me the code, they've given permission to release it under the GPL - let's just get on with disseminating it. So - how to I submit it?
