By the way, just as a hint (not meant insulting), but sometimes you would get faster responses when using a internet search engine and just type what you're searching for. I just typed 'linux device drivers' in google and got the link above

Well---that's the standard reference......What don't you like about it?

It may be best to first read it, and then chase down any specific details that are not clear.
