I'm making an attempt to install drivers for my easycap dc60 USB video capture device. Someone was good enough to make a driver project on sourceforge. Problem is I cannot get it compiled.
Code:

I have been trying to get tvtime or any tv package to work with my Pinnacle PCTV HD usb but I have not had success. I have correctly installed every driver imaginable. So, here is what it what it comes down to: When I open tvtime it says "cannot open capture device /dev/video0" and the screen is blue. But my usb PCTV HD stick is NOT /dev/video0 so the question is how can I get tvtime to look for the usb tv tuner rather than video0?

I'm trying to view the output of a dv firewire capture device (advc-100) fullscreen through vlc. I've read of people being able to do this but a detailed explanation of how eludes me.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and VLC 1.1.4
The error message I'm given after trying to open through 'media>open capture device>play' is;
Quote:
Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'v4l2:///dev/ffc1/'. Check the log for details.
(and I can't find the log)
I'm not even sure if I've got the device name right so I ran lspci from the command line which gave the following output (and I still can't work out what it is);
Quote:

HVR on Ubuntu 9.10 the capture card is streaming data in on /dev/video0 however nothing I've tried seems to be able to open the device, so far MythTV, tvtime, totem movie player, and others. The drivers in /lib/firmware appear to be the ones specified for this usb attached device.
lsmod seems to list a bunch of the relevant modules. There's something on the forums about "recompiling the driver" - anyone have any instructions on how to do that? Note, no usb device is shown on /media however if I do cat /dev/video0 > temp.mpeg a file is produced which media player can't display?

I've made a lot of progress getting my easycap 2.0 usb capture device to work with ubuntu 10.10. I've got the picture up any everything works great. But about a minute into the stream it just freezes, I need to go into "playback" and either pause then play, or click "next", it then refreshes and works again for another minute or so. I'd believe it if someone says faulty hardware because the easycap is cheap, but I don't think that's the case. Additionally, is there any way to set VLC so that when I open it, it automatically opens with my video capture device (/dev/video0) so that I don't have to go into the options and change it every time?

I need to capture from my webcam. It has a mic too.I can specify video input device as /dev/video0.I specified input audio device as /dev/dsp2 ( OSS device, corresponding to USB Webcam), Now VLC throws an error, "VLC is unable to open the MRL 'alsa:///dev/dsp2'. Check the log for details".Thinking it wants an alsa device, I specify device as /dev/snd/pcmC2D0c. (got it from kinfocenter and dolphin). Now again an error, "VLC is unable to open the MRL 'alsa:///dev/snd/pcmC2D0c'. Check the log for details.".I try with any device, the same error. I have added myself to audio device so that I can read/write to the mentioned devices.I see no way of switching VLC to use OSS. And I see no information (documentation on net) on it's expected device listing for audio.

Got a Ubuntu system. Have a device on my LAN that can send Syslog messages.
I would like to:
1. Capture these specific syslog messages.
2. Keep them separate from any other syslog activity on the Ubuntu system.
3. View these syslog messages later.

In Ubuntu 9.10, I was successfully able to use my Pinnacle Dazzle DVC 100 (a cheap USB analog video capture device). I use it for backing up old video that is stored on tapes, and it isn't working with my current install of Ubuntu 10.04. When I plug the device in, it should be detected and the em28xx module should be loaded. This fails and /var/log/messages has the following:
Code:
Sep 25 16:13:18 kernel: [1196215.111898] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 20

I'm getting some jitter when capturing via RCA or S-Video from an em28xx device. Input type is PAL, other than that I haven't fiddled with mplayer or vlc's options (vlc only sees the RCA input, mplayer sees both)

I have two sound devices, an internal audio device on my motherboard and an external USB devices, which came with my headset. After upgrading to 11.4, the microphone on my headset ceased to work with my softphone. As it turned out, the softphone used the standard input device, which was defined in the Phonon tab in the KDE System Settings. Unfortunately, when I put the USB Device on top of the default input stack, it doesn't stay there. When I apply the changes and leave the Phonon tab or even enable "Show advanced devices " the stack always resets to its initial order. I was unable to find any kind of config file where Phonon saves this settings.

I'm currently in the process of seeing if I can finally make the switch to linux from windows. So far everything is good, except for my MP3 Player. I use a Samsung Intensity with a 16gb microsdhc card, connected to my computer through a USB. The problem is that Ubuntu doesn't recognize it. Now rhythmbox will recognize it if I have it set to MTP mode, but you ubuntu itself never mounts it. I need it to mount so I can drag and drop files into specific folders on the card. Otherwise I doubt rhythmbox will know where to put the files. The addition of another person to the linux family depends on it. Since I only want to use windows for certain games and not any more than that.

My video card writes the CRT in one of two "modes". High intensity ("bright chars") and low intensity ("dim chars"). How do I set vim in order for him to use only low intensity?

Kernel 2.6.21.5, slackware 12.0
When you do 'man bash', you'll see some words are highlighted. I'll say that the video card has used high intesity in these instances. How do I disable this video card capability? Can this only be done by recompiling the kernel? Of course, I am talking about the text consoles, i.e., the video card in text mode.

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 a Dell Vostro 3300, i5 460 processor with a NVIDIA 310M Graphics Card. I'm doing a KUBUNTU 10.10 (Maverick) install with the following results. The Live CD boots just fine to, "TEST," or "Install." Installation goes fine. However, the graphics card being used is the Intel i915. I have tried installing the NVIDIA drivers directly from the, "Additional Drivers," tool and after the reboot I get through the boot screen to the console. I try to manually startx and I get the errors, "no device found," "no screens found." The second install I tried purging and blacklisting the nouveau drivers and entering safe mode. Then using apt-get install nvidia-current. After that, nvidia-xconfig. Same results.
The third attempt I re-installed and this time downloaded the drivers from the Nvidia site (version 256.53). Blacklisted nouveau, remove all nvidia, updated initramfs, etc. The install went fine however I still end up at a console after boot with the same messages as above. No device found, no screens found. I've tried searching through the forum and web and have tried things like adding the modset option along with many other hacks, tips and fixes. still, no go.I can live with the Intel graphics for now although I lose 512MB of memory. Unfortunately there is no way to disable or change this set-up in the BIOS. I've seen quite a few bug reports at Launchpad:
1. Is this something I should just wait til a fix comes? Will a fix come?
2. Is there, or will there be an official Updated Ubuntu Guide for Maverick to install NVIDIA drivers with this tecnology?
3. Lastly, is there anything else I should try??

I installed the following packages:
ieee80211-kmdl-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5-1.2.18-22.el5.i686.rpm
ipw2200-kmdl-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5-1.2.0-45.2.0.1.el5.i686.rpm
from [URL] How to remove them completely? The ipw2200 driver complains that it could not agree with certain symbols in ieee80211 module. Before taking another route, I would like to know how to completely remove the files installed by these driver packages.

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 got a nice Neximage webcam for my Nexstar Telescope for Xmas so I'm trying to get it working with kstars and INDI (Instrument Neutral Distributed Interface). I'm using opensuse 11.3 (tried on both 64 bit on PC and 32 bit on my laptop) and Gnome. I've installed libindi and kstars and as many dependencies as I could find but it seems that no matter what I do I can't get any telescope drivers to appear in the device manager.

Using a Eee 900A netbook by Asus. By pressing Fn + F2, I can disable or enable the wireless chip on the netbook, a blue LED indicates the status. I've been able to connect to wireless networks just fine with this netbook. However, if the wireless chip ever becomes disabled, I have to reboot to get my network connection back. This generally happens when suspending. For some reason the LED will be off and I have to hit Fn + F2 for it to light up again.
However, after doing so, Linux will not reconnect to the network. It simply changes the wireless status from "wireless is disabled" to "device not ready". Even worse, I've recently had issues with the chip being enabled at boot, thus making it nearly impossible to get connected. I've searched around on-line but haven't found much of anything useful on this. This happens on all kinds of different distros including Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook, EeeBuntu 4 beta, Jolicloud and Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook.

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?

I just upgrade to F12 from F10 and having problem with Skype mic audio. it was working well with F10 before.
I have try to plug in a mic for internal sound card and using external USB headse, both sources could not capture my mic audio. I try to use Gnome Volume preference to select the source and it makes no different. I also noticed the output volume is low on USB headset too
Just get it working on playing with Gnome Volume preference. I find that on headset input and output audio, I have to crank it up to 100% range to get it working. Volume control seems to be useful from 80-100% Problem solved, hope pulseaudio would improve the volume control

I am trying to get Canon MP250 printer and scanner working in OpenSUSE 11.3 and so far I've had limited success. Both components work up to a point, but aren't fully operational.First of all, I installed the drivers from Canon website for both parts of the multifunctional device. Here's the report on the versions (it's localised, but it shouldn't be hard to understand ).
The printer works for the most part. But it fails to set images to greyscale when I request the driver to. There are some guides about that for Ubuntu, but none for openSUSE that I could find. Also, what does the setting "Amount of Extension" in the printer options do?It would also be nice if I could set the printing quality as well. Right now it seems to print everything with the default quality setting, but personally I like using lower print quality since that saves ink and makes it a little faster.
The scanner, however, is hardly usable at all. If I try to use Canon's ScanGear MP to scan, I can hear that it operates the scanner, but the program itself freezes and after a while gives me the "Cannot communicate with scanner" error. On certain settings I can also hear that the scanner itself doesn't complete the scan (the indicator on it also reports an operation in progress, but it never gets completed).If I try to use Acquire images, the native KDE scanner application, I can get it to scan, but only on very specific settings: it must scan it in colour and the resolution must be equal to or over 300 dpi. If I try anything else, the resulting image file is completely blank or I get an "Error during device I/O". And, of course, it can't save PDF files.
