Hi,
I did searched you tube but my results were not great.I have 2 books on Kernel Programming.I feel I need if some where I can get a video tutorial which can help me to understand how to develop a Linux Device driver that will be great.I had a look at Greg Kroah Hartmans video lecture of developing patches on youtube.I have been reading books and a lot of stuff.So I wish if I could get a video lecture that would be better.
Any help would be appreciated.

Linux Device Drivers, third edition, by Corbet, Rubini, and Kroah-Hartman, ISBN 978-0-596-00590-0, www.oreilly.com is a pretty good discussion with tutorial examples. If you go through the book and program the examples, you will get a pretty good understanding of Linux device drivers.

You can use the source code for the device drivers as additional examples and reference.

I don't know how well videos would work. The book is 18 chapters. Each chapter would need several long videos to cover the material.
