found some fairly good info on TLDP, and on the net in general, but I
also need some good big-picture info. I've looked on Amazon, but I'm
feeling overwhelmed by all the options.
So I'm looking for good books on writing kernel drivers (2.4 and 2.6)
and interfacing with PCI hardware.
there is only book to consider. "Writing Linux Device drivers" published
by O'Reilly. one of the best technical books i have ever read. Author is
Alessandro Rubini i think, but i tend to be bad with names.
