    [PATCH] USB brlvger: Driver obsoleted by rewrite using usbfs · 25a1f19a
    Stéphane Doyon authored
    We have rewritten the brlvger (Tieman Voyager USB Braille display) driver
    so that it works from user-space through usbfs. It appears to work just as
    well as the in-kernel driver.
    
    The brlvger driver in the 2.6.x kernel is now obsolete and should be
    removed. The attached patch against 2.6.3 does this. Please apply.
    NB: The following files are completely deleted:
        Documentation/usb/brlvger.txt
        drivers/usb/misc/brlvger.c
        include/linux/brlvger.h
    
    The new Voyager driver is available (stil under GPL) as part of BRLTTY,
    starting with version 3.5pre1 (http://mielke.cc/brltty).
    Thanks to Dave Mielke who implemented BRLTTY's usbfs functionality, among
    lots of other stuff.
