hi folks:
I read the "linux device drivers" book by Rubini. but it's kind of
boring to only experiment with the memory device, I tried to
find an actualy hardware (inexpensive and relatively simple) to try
out, but no document exists explaining the hardware protocol.
I wonder how people managed to write the numerous drivers in the
kernel source. how did they get the hardware documentation?

could someone give me a pointer to an easy device with enough
documentation? thanks a lot!
