Spiro, Thanks. I just bought a XA1541 cable and dug out my old original 1541 drive. I downloaded the latest openCBM-0.4.0 and tried to build. 1st problem I had build died but I found the attached patch that made it work. I am using openSuSE 10.2: tom at linux:~> uname -a Linux linux 2.6.18.8-0.1-default #1 SMP Fri Mar 2 13:51:59 UTC 2007 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux This patch was listed for openSuSE 10.1, but it got me past that error. Next I kept getting 'directory does not exist errors, so I commented the following sub directories out of the Makefile: demo/flash demo/morse demo/rpm1541 docs mnib36 That was the only way I could get it to compile. I figured that demo stuff and the docs were not that important. Also mnib was listed as an optional sub dir. Are any of these important? After I did 'make dev' and 'make install' I followed the instructions on your web site: /sbin/depmod /sbin/modprobe parport these were OK then /sbin/insmod cbm lp=0 insmod: can't read 'cbm': No such file or directory so I went to my modules directory: /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/ and created a cbm directory to install the module /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/cbm then put that directory into my config.make and compiles again. After make install the cbm.ko was in /lib/modules/2.6.18.8-0.1-default/kernel/drivers/cbm but I still get the same error: /sbin/depmod /sbin/insmod cbm lp=0 insmod: can't read 'cbm': No such file or directory ---------- Another problem, but maybe related is that if I try to use one of the tools like cbmctrl I get errors too: tom at linux:/usr/local/bin> cbmcopy --help cbmcopy: error while loading shared libraries: libopencbm.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory tom at linux:/usr/local/bin> cbmctrl --help cbmctrl: error while loading shared libraries: libopencbm.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory but libopencbm.so.0 is in the /usr/local/lib directory. (cbmctrl et al are in /usr/local/bin) tom at linux:/usr/local/bin> ls -al /usr/local/lib/ | grep libopencbm.so.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2007-04-09 21:59 libopencbm.so -> libopencbm.so.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 2007-04-09 21:59 libopencbm.so.0 -> libopencbm.so.0.4.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59021 2007-04-09 21:59 libopencbm.so.0.4.0 Can you give me some pointers to getting this to work?
