Well, it's already doing unsigned -> signed and 8 -> 16 bit conversions in

That's the point really. The apps have to check the driver capalities and deal
with them anyway. If the driver tries to be too intelligent about what the app
wants, duplicated work may be the result.
but there is other stuff out there that does the same, for better or
worse. (I know the PPC version of the CivCTP demo seems to do the same
thing.)
AFAIK the Loki guys are fairly open to suggestions.
PS: linuxppc-dev is more appropriate for kernel patches and discussion.
Oh. Well, then I suppose I'd better send it to them. Do I have to join the
list to post to it, or will it accept non-member messages?
You don't have to be subscribed to post AFAIR.
