hi all
we following the steps from
formatting link
and install the parallel cable driver under linux kernel 2.6.10 (suse
9.3 pro) Impact was not able to find xpc4drvr module thus parallel cable IV has been set to compatibility mode. following message is from "make download" in command mode
AutoDetecting cable. Please wait. Connecting to cable (Parallel Port - parport0). WinDriver v7.00 Jungo (c) 1997 - 2005 Build Date: Apr 26 2005 X86

WinDriver v7.00 Jungo (c) 1997 - 2005 Build Date: Apr 26 2005 X86 11:07:13. LPT base address = 0378h. ECP base address = 0778h. Cable connection established. ECP port test failed. Using download cable in compatibility mode.from the message the cable is operating in compatibility mode because "xpc4drvr" is not loaded. When i check the module list, the "xpc4drv" is loaded (instead of "xpc4drvr").
The kernel message shows the following message when xpc4drvr is loaded.
xpc4drv: unsupported module, tainting kernel. xpc4drvr: init_module
Anyone has a solution to this?
The only certain thing is that it is about 10X slower than high speed mode. This become very annoying when trying downloading a big bitfile.
thank you
