RE: mips kernel 2.6.16rc1 + IET 0.4.13 - /dev/ietctl - ioctl unknown command

I have seen such error messages when userspace app is built in 32bit
mode
And kernel is built in 64 bit mode. Does this apply to your setup ?

The way to fix this is to register a ioctl32 conversion routine in
The driver. Google is your friend..

Thx
