Qusestion about MAX96724(MAX9296A) Driver

I have moved this question about MAX96724R to the Linux Software Drivers community. Someone here should be able to assist you.

Hi,

In order to be able to use the MAX96724 + MAX9296A kernel drivers you need a V4L2 sensor driver for the sensor. But you can find a lot of examples in the kernel sources and you can implement a minimum functionality V4L2 driver quite easy.

You can also try to contact the vendor of the camera module you use and maybe he can provide you a V4L2 linux sensor driver you can use.

Also take in consideration that the sensor driver should be platform agnostic so if you find a driver on some other tree for your sensor you should be able to copy the sources in RPI tree, rebuild the kernel and it should work.

Only Nvidia sensor drivers are a bit special and are not compatible with standard V4L2 platfroms.

Thanks for detailed explanation

I'll ask manufacturer about sensor driver.
