Hi all,

I have a weird problem with my CAN-Software that worked a while ago. 
I have two machines, a desktop PC and a laptop, both have Ubuntu 9.04
with kernel 2.6.28-15 installes, both compiled and installed the peak-
linux-drivers 6.11 correctly. (make && sudo make install).

I also installed today's version of socketcan (svn) on both machines.

On both machines I can do 'ifconfig can0 up' without any problems. On the 
labtop, I can then do e. g.

$ candump can0
or
$ cansend can0 201#11.22.33.44.55.66.77.88

and things like that. It works. I checked that by connecting another PC 
(sorry, it was Windows XP) using PCan-View. 

When I try the same thing on the desktop PC, I get:

$ cansend can0 201#11.22.33.44.55.66.77.88
socket: Address family not supported by protocol

I installed the driver the same way as I did on the laptop and I have no other 
signs that anything fails. On the non-working desktop pc, 'cat /proc/pcan' 
gives this:


*------------ PEAK-Systems CAN interfaces (www.peak-system.com) -------------
*--------------------------  Release_20090626_n  ----------------------------
*------------- [mod] [isa] [pci] [dng] [par] [usb] [pcc] [net] --------------

On the (working) laptop, it gives:


*------------ PEAK-Systems CAN interfaces (www.peak-system.com) -------------
*--------------------------  Release_20090626_n  ----------------------------
*------------- [mod] [isa] [pci] [dng] [par] [usb] [pcc] [net] --------------

What can i do to investigate the problem in detail?

I use two PCAN USB-Adapters (/dev/pcan32), one has firmware 0.7, the other uses
a newer (2.?) firmware. exchanging them makes no difference.

I appreciate any help.

Thanx in advance.



Martin
