Hello, Wolfgang.
I use kernel v. 2.6.35-30. 
I downloaded the trunk of SocketCAN project from SVN and found there
directory /old/i82527. Can I use it in my project or not? And what's the
difference between this driver and the driver that you offer me? There is
also a driver for cc770 in the trunk - it supports my board too?

Please correct me if I'm wrong. As I understood from "README" file from the
trunk directory I have to run "make" for SocketCAN drivers for my kernel and
I must have linux sources on my target PC. Now I don't have sourcesin my
filesystem but I'll download them and try again. What must I see in my
filesystem after that? Where CAN drivers will appear?

Sorry for stupid questions - I'm not close with SVN and Linux drivers:-( but
I'll try to improve it :working:
