POD HD500X patch. POD HD, HDx tester needed.

[hmollercl]

Hi with the help of the guy that did the POD X3 patch, we created a patch for POD HD500X and we are working to me merged in Kernel.
Here is the preliminary instruction on how to patch it in kernel 4.9+ and compile the module and

I also believe that this could be easily replicated for HD PRO, POD HD PROX and HD Desktop but I don't have this devices to test it so we could also merged it in the kernel. So, if you have any of this devices and want to try, you would need to make some changes in the patch. changing the device_id, and where 500X appears change it with your device. If it still doesn't work, I can guide you in some small changes. Tell me how is it going to include it in the patch.

Finnaly, any other HD user (300,400,500), it would be useful to test if the changes doesn't affected you, so when the new kernel arrive you won't be affected. So, please try it and tell me if it stop working.

yes, but only audio, MIDI and patch load/upload are not supported (for this you can work over virtualbox w/o problems). In kernel 4.9 was POD X3 included, in kernel 4.13 pod HD500x. For HD Desktop I submited the patch already (hope it will be present in 4.15) but With the link I posted you can make the change an recompile again. Kernel above 4.9 is needed.
