Hi Steve.
Did you succeed on running the driver for KS8841? Did you have to change anything?
We are debugging it and some modifications might be necessary for our platform.
Hope to hear from you.
Regards, Douglas

A few years ago I wrote a driver for KS8841 and got it working (16-bit memory-mapped on PowerPC). I started with the Micrel driver, but as you know it's pretty ugly. Last week I dusted off that old driver and got it
to
compile with the latest U-boot, but wasn't able to test it because the company that I worked for is long gone. It's hopefully close to
functional,
but still has too many style issues to post publicly. I sent the driver
to
Douglas off-line, and am awaiting feedback. If you'd like, I can send it
to
you too. It'd be nice to have a single driver that handles different
chips,
but with configurable accessors.
Yes, please send me a copy! I'll take a look and see if it looks like it will work with the 8851.
I agree it would be quite nice if we could have a single driver.
