I am final year MCA student. I like to do my project in Linux. I know a little in C. I am pursuing RHCE certification. I am using rhel5. I am interested to write linux device drivers and willing to do my project in that.

The Project is for writing a generic program which extracts list of applications that is running on Unix, and for each application, determine if it has a corresponding graphical UI interface, is so, the program should be able to grab the UI into a image bitmap. The program should be able to run in any Unix UI framework, such as CDE, KDE, X, Motif, et al.

I have one of these devices:
[URL]
Of course, it's Windows only, and XP only at that. However, the data that needs transferred between the device and the computer should be fairly basic, unless it offloads a lot of processing to the computer. I'm not a programmer, nor do I play one on TV, but I have written some fairly complicated microcontroller programs and some basic Java GUIs. Besides writing the actual code, how hard is it to do whatever needs done to make a Linux device driver, apart from the code to make the device work?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a write call to a ttyACM serial device that blocks after several hundreds bytes are written.I'm writing in ~25 byte chunks, so I have 5-8 successful writes, then the next write blocks forever.I can bypass the blocked call using select, but I can never call write again without closing and re-opening the port.
The serial port is opened correctly because I can read from it just fine. Write permissions are correct, and it's opened RW.The code is likely correct because I tested the same code using the same device on a pure RS-232 serial port, and it worked fine - no block. Is there anything to know about the linux ACM module?It's my understanding that write calls basically shouldn't block.They're supposed to return -1 if there's an error.
I'm writing a C program that reads the boot sector of a USB disk. (it is mounted as /dev/sda1). I'm able to read the sector, by the calls code...
The problem is when I wish to write. I use the call:
bytesWrite = write(fd, buf, 512)
The 'write' returns the value of 512, which looks as if the write was successful, yet
when I read again the /dev/sda1 device, I see that no writing was actually made.
Can anybody tell me what do I need to do in order to allow an actual write to the
device?
I have been reading some books about device driver development etc.I made a char driver of bond (dummy) device. My book says that PCI devices contain three addressable regions,configuration space,IO ports,and device memory,the book talks about a file include/linux/pci_ids.h and PCI addressing etc.I read about following functions
1) pci_read_config_
2) pci_write_config_ some thing known as offset is defined to be passed on as an argument to above functions
3) IRQ number assigned to a card function pci_read_config_byte_,configuration register offsets
4) pci_request_region I want to write a pci driver for my own understanding and I am reading some books about it.

I have written interrupt handlers for a keyboard as well as the serial port RS232.
I have seen the book written by O'Reilly w.r.t the device drivers.
I wanted to know *exactly* what parts of Linux kernel should i understand well for having a crystal clear view of writing any kind of device driver ?
I have started reading book Linux Device Drivers 3rd edition. So I want to know which is the best light weight distribution to use so that learning can be more generic and also does not involve distro specific nitty-gritty details. I have already tried building kernel for Ubuntu 10.04 but it involved different commands from what is mentioned in the book. So I am not sure whether I would be able to make further in the book. Has anybody tried?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have project released under GPL. I have found an icon (.png) I want to use in it that also has a GPL license. What do I have to do, if anything, to use it legally? It's "just an icon", and while it represents a significant amount of work on someone's part, it doesn't come with any source code or embedded licenses that I can just copy and include with my project files. I'm sure I can use it because it's GPL and my project is GPL.
That's what GPL was designed for, but I don't want anyone to think I'm claiming I designed it or that I took it without giving proper credit. I just reread the GPL, and it looks like I can do anything I want with it as long as I don't restrict anyone else from doing the same and if I were to modify it, I'd have to put a notice "somewhere" (but where would that be for an icon?) acknowledging that modification. I don't see anything that would make me actually mention it at all in my documentation, etc. as long as I pass it along unmodified.
I have the joyous task of having to find and fix a bug in a large opensource project for an assignment. Fixing the bug should only take about 4 hours according to the lecturer. I would prefer the source language of the project to be Java, since my C++ is quite rusty.
So, does anyone have some experience in this type of thing, and can you give me advice about which projects would not be nasty to an ignorant student? Also, which tools did you use to make it easier for you? I want to learn how to do this,but I'm just a bit clueless at present.
