My apologies for using the wrong word. Only meant to say that this driver is required only in the Meego since it is a platform specific driver for the MID platform.

The same reason as above, thought it should go into Meego only cause this is not really required for all other platforms. If posting on the main list is the way to go I can follow that as well.
