Summary: error when running insmod

Initial Comment:
I compiled the driver but when i enter '/sbin/insmod 

src/acx100_pci.o' i get the following error:



src/acx100_pci.o: init_module: No such device

Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module 

parameters , including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.

You may find more information in syslog or the output 

from dmesg.



in syslog i have:



Sep 14 05:49:44 portatilo kernel: init_module dev_info 

is: TI acx100_pci

Sep 14 05:49:44 portatilo kernel: init_module 

acx100_pci: No devices found, driver not installed



I have kernel 2.4.22 and a Mustek PCM-22  FCC ID:O7J-

GL242201



i used a driver acx100_pci.o that i had that was in a 

zipfile named linux_V0903a to extract the firmware.



What is wrong with me?

Why doesn't it find my adapter?

No ligths are on in the card before i try to load the 

module (don't know if any should be).



my email is ber...@ne...

please help me.

thanks a lot.

The README states very well that you need to add a

firmware_dir parameter, and of course the only reason for

such a file to exist is to always be read by the user.

From further comments in this support request I'm not sure

if this was always the simple solution to the problem.

Please reopen bug in case there is some other reason for the

init failure.

I've experienced the same problem, but it solvs itself if Iput in the PC 

Card twice. The second time the driver finds it and it runs super! 

Maybe worth a try? 

Exactly the same thing happens by the way with the binary driver.

I have encountered the same problem.  i copied the 

acx100_driver to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/ 

thinking that would solve the problem, but now linux tries to 

initialize the module at startup and gives the same message.  

I have no idea how to change the IO or IRQ setting.  I've 

switched all bios setting to "auto" but that doesn't help 

either.  It just occurred to me that maybe changing the bios 

plug'nplay feature to manual might work.  I'll let you know.  If 

you figure it out please email me at ji...@co... with 

what you find.  Thanks,  Jim Collins

Sorry I cannot help, but 

 

I have the exact same problem with a Draytek Vigor 520 card. When 

entering make it will run fine except of some warnings but when I try 

to use insmod it tells me that there is no such device.
