[PATCH 0/3] TIGLUSB Cleanups

[PATCH 0/3] TIGLUSB Cleanups

[Mikkel Krautz]

Hello!

The tiglusb-driver was removed in 2.6.11-rc1.

Since then, references to it in other files have been kept, namely the 
following files:

    Documentation/usb/silverlink.txt,
    Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
    MAINTAINERS

This series of patches removes the silverlink.txt-documentation, and 
tiglusb-references in MAINTAINERS and kernel-parameters.txt.

The patches are diffed against 2.6.11-rc2-bk4.

Thanks,
Mikkel Krautz

Hurrah!

All the patches were word-wrapped by Thunderbird, even though I disabled it.

I'm sorry, but this is all I can do for now. Sigh.

Thanks,

Use a different email client, or attach the patches as plain text.

Good luck,

Nah, just send them again, I can distinguish them by the fact that they
can actually be applied :)

Should I add "[RESEND]" or something simmilar to the subjects, so they
can be easily distinguished from the original ones?

Nope, please break them out into the three pieces, in three different
emails like you did before so I can apply them all properly.

I hope this'll do for now. :-)

-Readme for Linux device driver for the Texas Instruments SilverLink cable
-and direct USB cable provided by some TI's handhelds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Author: Romain Liévin & Julien Blache
-Homepage: http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_usb
-
-INTRODUCTION:
-
-This is a driver for the TI-GRAPH LINK USB (aka SilverLink) cable, a cable 
-designed by TI for connecting their TI8x/9x calculators to a computer 
-(PC or Mac usually). It has been extended to support the USB port offered by
-some latest TI handhelds (TI84+ and TI89 Titanium).
-
-If you need more information, please visit the 'SilverLink drivers' homepage 
-at the above URL.
-
-WHAT YOU NEED:
-
-A TI calculator of course and a program capable to communicate with your 
-calculator.
-TiLP will work for sure (since I am his developer !). yal92 may be able to use
-it by changing tidev for tiglusb (may require some hacking...).
-
-HOW TO USE IT:
-
-You must have first compiled USB support, support for your specific USB host
-controller (UHCI or OHCI).
-
-Next, (as root) from your appropriate modules directory (lib/modules/2.5.XX):
-
-       insmod usb/usbcore.o
-       insmod usb/usb-uhci.o  <OR>  insmod usb/ohci-hcd.o
-       insmod tiglusb.o
-
-If it is not already there (it usually is), create the device:
-
-       mknod /dev/tiglusb0 c 115 16
-
-You will have to set permissions on this device to allow you to read/write
-from it:
-
-       chmod 666 /dev/tiglusb0
-       
-Now you are ready to run a linking program such as TiLP. Be sure to configure 
-it properly (RTFM).
-       
-MODULE PARAMETERS:
-
-  You can set these with:  insmod tiglusb NAME=VALUE
-  There is currently no way to set these on a per-cable basis.
-
-  NAME: timeout
-  TYPE: integer
-  DEFAULT: 15
-  DESC: Timeout value in tenth of seconds. If no data is available once this 
-       time has expired then the driver will return with a timeout error.
-
-QUIRKS:
-
-The following problem seems to be specific to the link cable since it appears 
-on all platforms (Linux, Windows, Mac OS-X). 
-
-In some very particular cases, the driver returns with success but
-without any data. The application should retry a read operation at least once.
-
-HOW TO CONTACT US:
-
-You can email me at roms@lpg.ticalc.org. Please prefix the subject line
-with "TIGLUSB: " so that I am certain to notice your message.
-You can also mail JB at jb@jblache.org: he has written the first release of 
-this driver but he better knows the Mac OS-X driver.
-
-CREDITS:
-
-The code is based on dabusb.c, printer.c and scanner.c !
-The driver has been developed independently of Texas Instruments Inc.
