Does anybody in this list know why the IP1000 driver is not
included in the kernel ?
Afaik the driver has never been submitted for inclusion.
At least not on netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (hint, hint).
[...]
The card in question is:
Sundance Technology Inc IC Plus IP1000
and the driver can be found in sundance web, sources
URL please ?
included. I tried to contact the author but my email
bounced.
There's no LICENSE in the source, just copyrigth
sentences in the .c files, so i'm not sure under
which license it's distributed :-?.
/me goes to http://www.icplus.com.tw/driver-pp-IP1000A.html
$ unzip -c IP1000A-Linux-driver-v2.09f.zip | grep MODULE_LICENSE
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
It's a bit bloaty but it does not seem too bad (not mergeable "as
is" though). Do you volunteer to test random cra^W^W carefully
engineered code on your computer to help the rework/merging process ?
