Or, if from the get go it would have been included in
the mainline
kernel source (after submitting it to the proper channels, etc, etc -
difficult but not impossible. Out of mainline kernel drivers have
always
been a pain...).
There are no kernel drivers in MidiShare, only kernel modules. The
drivers sit in user space and are not dependent on the Linux drivers
unless you deem it so ..
I did wrestle with midishare a while back for Planet
CCRMA (for
openmusic, same as Dave) and I'm not looking forward to a rehash of
that :-)
I'm guessing the hard-coded paths and the sub-tree Makefile scheme in
MidiShare presented a dilemna?
