GPL Linux Driver For The Synaptics cPad

Posted by timothy on from the snazzy-interface dept.

jki writes "A historical moment for Openchallenge as a challenge has now went through the full circle. 18th August Mace Moneta submitted a challenge to develop open source Linux drivers for the Synaptics cPad (cPad is an LCD-equipped touchpad that provides notebook users with a secondary display as well as touch interface and navigation) integrated to Toshiba Satellite 5100-501 for example. Now, today Rob Miller submitted the solution implementing GPL'd Linux drivers. I am so thrilled to see Openchallenge really working -- I hope this opens the flood gates!"

    This story sure didn't open the floodgates of comments, but I just opened my ass cheeks (_*_) and released a flood of heady and aromatic phartschtink. And who doesn't love taking a deep lungful of their own phartschtink?
