does this mean Linux kernel tree must be adapted to commercial drivers
for Windows ?

Shouldn't that be the windows drivers to be adapted to existing Linux
drivers which seems to work fine (at least with a Linux host) ?

More general question (that's why I include handhelds.org & qpe-devel

interest for linux-arm community ?
