Hi,
You will require their hardware specification/data sheet. From the
partnership page, I assume that they expect you to sign an NDA, and
hence you might not be able to reveal the hardware details.
Ok fine.. so let me try with some other compatible drivers and even Validity
Sensors, Inc. is currently working with the development of the driver for
Ubuntu and have said it will be released soon. So waiting for that too and
They have already developed a driver for OpenSuse and it is in rpm package
and i even compiled it to .deb format using Alien but don't know how to use
it.
Linux device driver files have .ko extension.
Thanks for correcting it. I have misunderstood it a lot itseems.
