Hello, I am working on a build of ftdi_usb.c for 2 systems:
fedora 6 (2.6.22.14)
powerpc (2.6.13.4)
the code I'm working with so far is ftdi_usb.c 2 Feb 2006 with support for
FTDI 232R chip.
I have a USB com port adapter based on the FTDI 232RL chip, and this works
fine on my FC6 system. so I know the module must have been built at some
point against linux distro 2.6.22.14 (FD6)
I'm sorry to say but IMO the makefiles that downloaded with the source were
messed up, probably rooted in linux 2.4 The builds I have attempted so far
are failing in various ways, given changes in makefiles, linux system usb
apis, etc.
what is the best way to download source for specific linux distros?
I've been to linuxhq.com, which is fine, but only available are patch files.
Is there a way to download a know buildable source for a specific linux
version?
After that I can devise a suitable kernel module build makefile.
Thanks,
