Please excuse my ignorance, but I'm very new to compiling Linux kernels, setting parameters for Platform type drivers etc. Our Intel Atom based board has an SJA1000 controller on it that worked in older versions of Linux (such as Ubuntu 10.04) with the SJA1000_ISA driver that was included with Ubuntu. Unfortunately, with Debian Squeeze (the latest version), it seems that this driver has been replaced with SJA1000_PLATFORM. However, unlike the SJA1000_ISA driver, i cannot simply edit a ".conf" file in the /etc/modprobe.d directory in order to set the ISA ports and IRQ's that the hardware is assisgned to. Thus (remember, be kind, I'm a beginner at this!!), I assume that I need to use the SJA1000_PLATFORM driver included with Debian Squeeze.....
My question: Is there a simple way (that doesn't involve recompiling the Linux Kernel) to set the following "options" for the SJA1000_PLATFORM driver so it'll support my ISA hardware? Shown below is my ".conf" file that I used for the SJA1000_ISA driver.... alias can0 sja1000_isa } How do I tell SocketCAN that can0 is the SJA1000_PLATFORM driver? alias can1 sja1000_isa } options sja1000_isa port=0xff80,0xffa0 irq=3,4 }how do I tell the driver what ports and IRQ's my hardware's at? How do I do the same thing for the SJA1000_PLATFORM driver???? Thanks for any information that you can provide! Fred E.
