<DD>This document describes the issues behind distributing drivers independant of a complete linux source tree. The idea is being able to download the driver for *only* your device, as is possible under *other OS's*. Interesting discussion.<p>

<DD>"The Uniform Driver Interface (UDI) allows device drivers to be portable across both hardware platforms and operating systems without any changes to the driver source. With the participation of multiple OS, platform and device hardware vendors, UDI is the first interface which is likely to achieve such portability on a wide scale. UDI provides an encapsulating environment for drivers with well-defined interfaces which isolate drivers from OS policies and from platform and I/O bus dependencies. This allows driver development to be totally independent of OS development. In addition, the UDI architecture insulates drivers from platform specifics such as byte-ordering, DMA implications, multi-processing, interrupt implementations and I/O bus topologies." <p>UDI Homepage: <a href="http://www.project-udi.org/">http://www.project-udi.org/</a><p>
