Not only 760LD!

New page

TP765L/TP765D have the same problem, too. I can't test the patch right now, but maybe I'll do that in a month or so... --[[User:Eflags|Eflags]] 03:02, 1 February 2008 (CET)

		+	----
		+
		+	Well the patch was posted by a user called "''Fpga''', and he did not make any edits after 10/2006 and does not have a user page. I do not have access to any ThinkWiki registration details, so I cannot check the email address he used to register, but it is possible that even that does not work any more.
		+
		+	Try asking [[User:Akw]] if he can contact [[User:Fpga]] on your behalf with the question if he can submit it to the PCMCIA mailing list. His contact details are on his user page. --[[User:Tonko\|Tonko]] 17:01, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

	Wonder what the odds of getting a patch for this antique hardware into the main kernel?		Wonder what the odds of getting a patch for this antique hardware into the main kernel?

		+	----
		+	Is this still a current issue with modern kernels? 2.6.18 is ancient.
		+	If so, and the patch is clean it would be best for the author of the patch to submit it to the PCMCIA maintainers, which according to the MAINTAINERS file is;
		+
		+	PCMCIA SUBSYSTEM
		+	P: Linux PCMCIA Team
		+	L: linux-pcmcia@lists.infradead.org
		+	W: http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pcmcia
		+	T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brodo/pcmcia-2.6.git
		+	S: Maintained
		+	F: Documentation/pcmcia/
		+	F: drivers/pcmcia/
		+	F: include/pcmcia/
		+
		+	Alternatively, look at who has lately made changes to the yenta driver, and ask if they can help to upstream the patch

		+
		+	I patched and compiled linux-2.6.18.6 on one of my antique 760XL's, worked like a charm, will try later on a 760EL i have if i can find it, suspect it will work there as well.
