Subject: Cleaning asus_oled
Hi,
I'm trying to clean the asus_oled driver, here is my git tree with
some trivial patchs.
http://git.iksaif.net/?p=acpi4asus.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/asus_oled
Before working deeper, I wanted to discuss about the userspace interface:
> TODO:

First, should we move asus_oled functionalities in asus-laptop ?
Then the interface would be in sysfs under
/sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/{picture|enable} ?
Else we can use /dev/asus_oled, with an ioctl (or a zero-size image)
to switch the OLED off.
But I don't think /sys/class/oled is a good place to be, because
/sys/class is for generic things.
Thanks,
