Subject: Cleaning asus_oled
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2009 20:40:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <71cd59b00908041140j7bd814d2u90585864fe00415e@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

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,
