[opensigma-users] x-card driver

[Придворов А. <ua...@bk...>]

Hi.
First, mistake in readme. Latest win x-card driver consist rm847x.sy_, not rm847x.vx_.
And need extract microcodes from rm847x.sys, not rm847x.vxd.

Second.
Is latest svn driver support 32-bit architecture?
Or 64 only?

I have compiled svn driver on debian sarge, 2.6.24 kernel, with x-card
After modprobe sigma-test in syslog:

May 30 11:28:32 ua0lnjvdr kernel: SIGMA PCI device 0000:00:09.0: Xcard

May 30 11:28:32 ua0lnjvdr kernel: SIGMA PCI device 0000:00:09.0: revision id - 0x1

After modprobe xcard:

May 30 11:22:20 ua0lnjvdr kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:09.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10

May 30 11:22:20 ua0lnjvdr kernel: SIGMA video 0: dicom Kmin set into 0x1093
May 30 11:22:20 ua0lnjvdr kernel: SIGMA board 0: Realmagic Xcard, chip EM8475 (rev. A), 4MB SDRAM

But em84xx soft not worked, when I try run mplayer-em84xx I have:

VIDEO:  MPEG2  720x576  (aspect 2)  25.000 fps  4000.0 kbps (500.0 kbyte/s)
[Entering multithreading now]
[New thread #1 pid 11364]
Fatal error: cannot open quasar
[Emergency exit on signal 2]
[Thread #1 pid 11364 cancelling thread #0 pid 11364]
[Thread #1 exiting with status 19]

And vdr with em84xx module:

May 30 11:25:58 ua0lnjvdr vdr: [8065] plugin 'em84xx' called obsolete function RegisterI18n()
May 30 11:25:58 ua0lnjvdr vdr: [8065] em84xx: checking for a dvd drive
May 30 11:25:58 ua0lnjvdr vdr: [8065] em84xx: dvd drive detected (device: /dev/hdc)
May 30 11:25:58 ua0lnjvdr kernel: vdr[8065]: segfault at 000bffff eip b63800f2 esp bf944484 error 4

But all works with old driver (realmagic84xx kernel module).
I think, sigma lib cann't connect to new driver.

In readme:
"The device files em8xxxN,videoN,audioN,spuN and osdN (N=0,1,2,..7) are created automatically"
BUT: I cann't see this devaces in /dev.


No spu0, no osd0, no em8xxx0.
I created it manually, but no effect.


Any suggestions, how i can test works x-card or not?

Best regards.
