From dnasoc at swbell.net Thu Jan 6 13:39:06 2005 From: dnasoc at swbell.net (Randy Dawson) Date: Thu Jan 6 19:28:29 2005 Subject: [Wd_general] USB, video, digital camera status Message-ID: <003701c4f427$6402e630$6601a8c0@dawson6dr3ohvp> Hi Scott, Andrew Happy new year! I am still working with WD to get video and digital camera support working (my sysadmin skills are weak) I listed the WD iso file list to get oriented, found devtools and the install script. gcc and everything loaded OK. I have not built the kernel yet, it looks like I dont have to do it to get usb working, the module is already there. (in /lib/modules/2.4.24/kernel/drivers/usb) the command modprobe -v usbcore loads it. To do this automatic on boot, I assume we add usbcore to /etc/modules.conf, but I am unclear on the syntax. Just adding a line usbcore to the file does not work. Andrew, I know you were working video webcams, I went to digital cameras for now. I have PTP protocol and gphoto2 working in a mandrake box with an HP 430 camera. And I can read camera images from the command line. (MMPTP is another possible way) I want to port this to WD and I think I can do it. I wanted to see how you are coming with video4linux. And how were you going to display your video? Or, are you working like me on an imbedded headless application, sending video/pictures across a net or comm link? Scott, what is the proper way to make usbcore load on boot? Would BLAST be a good way to send video or jpegs across a com link in near realtime? Sy to a windows machine? My application is for an industrial camera at the long end of coax or wireline. The embedded WD linux and a kontron DIMMPC will go into an oil well logging tool. Thanks guys, Randy -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This would be the perfect thing for my application, sending video over a serial link. Do you think this is possible to add this to White Dwarf? I can handle all the signal integrity issues to ensure waveforms are not distorted from the TTL levels out the board, over the wire. We are NOT RS232, but coax. Wild idea I know, but I thought that perhaps you wireless guys may have done something like this. Randy Dawson ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Serial High Speed Mode Patch for Linux June 15, 1997 MIZUHARA Bun (mizuhara@st.rim.or.jp) Sep 7, 1998 Updated by TAKEUCHI Yoji (ytakeuch@po.iijnet.or.jp) 1. Introduction Some SMC/NS/Winbond Multi-I/O chips and ALI south bridge chips have High Speed mode, in which baud rate can be set to 230400, 460800 (or 921600 at NS/Winbond chips) bps. With this patch applied, the serial port driver automatically probe those chips and enable High Speed mode. This patch is created and tested for kernel 2.0.34. There is absolutely no warranty for this software. This software can be distributed or modified freely, provided that this documentation accompanies. However, it is encouraged to send comments or modifications to the author (mizuhara@st.rim.or.jp). Copyright 1996,1997 MIZUHARA Bun (mizuhara@st.rim.or.jp). 2. History Spetember 7, 1998 Updated to V1.7a. Updated features from original Shsmod V1.7a. June 15, 1997 Updated to v1.1. Fixed a bug in 669 probing. Added support for new chips. November 3, 1996 Released first version. (My birthday!) 3. System requirements OS: Linux kernel version 2.0.34 or later. I/O Chips: ALI: M1543(Aladdin V south bridge) Serial ports provided by this chip will run at 230400 and 460800 bps. NS: PC87308 PC87307/87317 PC97307/97317 PC87309 PC87338 Serial ports provided by these chips will run at 230400/460800/921600(not tested) bps. SMC: 37C665IR/666IR 37C669/669FR,37N769 37B72x/77x/78x/80x,37C67x/68x/93x/93xAPM/93xFR,37M60x/61x,37N958FR Serial ports provided by these chips will run at 230400 and 460800 bps. WinBond: W83877TF(TF ONLY, A/F/AF NOT supported) W83977A/AF/TF/ATF Serial ports provided by these chips will run at 230400 and 460800 bps. Visit http://www.yk.rim.or.jp/~gigo/download.html for detailed information and availability of patches for other OS. 4. Installation and testing (1) Login as root. (2) Change directory to /usr/src (or a directory where linux kernel sources reside). (3) Apply this patch. # patch -p -s < shsmod17a-linux.patch No messages should be displayed. (4) Rebuild the kernel. If serial driver is compiled in the kernel (and LILO is used as a boot loader), follow these steps: # cd linux # make zlilo If serial driver is compiled as a module, follow these steps: # cd linux # make modules # make modules_install (5) Reboot with the new kernel and watch messages carefully. If you find messages like this, congratulations! Serial driver version 4.13 with HighSpeedMode V1.7a(Linux 06-Sep-98) enabled tty00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A(NS PC87308 at 002eh, Serial Speed Mode: High) tty01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A(NS PC87308 at 002eh, Serial Speed Mode: High) The first line shows that the driver supports High Speed mode. It does not mean a chip used in your system supports High Speed mode. The second and third line shows I/O chip type and wheather it supports High Speed mode. If you cannot find "High Speed mode enabled" in the messages, your chip does not support High Speed mode. Try another motherboard or I/O card. 5. How to use serial speed higher than 38400bps >From application's point of view, maximum speed of serial port is 38400bps even if High Speed mode is enabled. Set it to 38400bps, and call a program named "setserial" in order to use higher speed. # setserial /dev/cua1 spd_hi sets /dev/cua1 (com2) to 57600bps. # setserial /dev/cua0 spd_vhi sets /dev/cua0 (com1) to 115200bps. for SMC/ALI chips # setserial /dev/cua1 spd_cust divisor 0x8002 sets /dev/cua1 (com2) to 230400bps (with High Speed mode enabled). # setserial /dev/cua0 spd_cust divisor 0x8001 sets /dev/cua0 (com1) to 460800bps (with High Speed mode enabled). for NS/Winbond chips # setserial /dev/cua1 spd_cust divisor 4 sets /dev/cua1 (com2) to 230400bps (with High Speed mode enabled). # setserial /dev/cua0 spd_cust divisor 2 sets /dev/cua0 (com1) to 460800bps (with High Speed mode enabled). # setserial /dev/cua0 spd_cust divisor 1 sets /dev/cua0 (com1) to 921600bps (with High Speed mode enabled). !!! THIS MODE IS NOT TESTED !!! 6. Bug reports If you encounter problems, follow these steps. (1) Recompile the driver with DEBUG_CONFIG_SHSMOD option enabled, if possible. In the file linux/drivers/char/serial.c, you can find /* #define DEBUG_CONFIG_SHSMOD */ at line number around 80. Uncomment this line and recompile, as shown above. (2) Reboot with the kernel, and watch messages. Write down relevant messages. You can scroll up the screen by pressing Shift-PageUp. (3) E-mail to me (ytakeuch@po.iijnet.or.jp) with detailed description of the symptom, kernel messages, and hardware environment. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

White Dwarf on Kontron DIMMPC now sees the usb camera, after insmod usbcore insmod usb-ohci Now when I plug in the camera, I get new device detected and the correct device code I am on to getting the applications working, and I am getting some errors building gphoto2. It looks like the builds require pkgconfig, so I got that and built it, but I think it does not find automake and autoconf to install itself, because even after build and install, gphoto2 still says no pkgconfig. I see in your devtools script that you did install these. Perhaps some path or environment variables did not get set, I am just guessing. I dont have a clue why these builds do not work.

I am back from school break- we are in the spring semester term now. My latest tinkering with the WDL test system resulted in a recompiled kernel that supports USB and Video4Linux cameras. (I am getting help with linux lingo from my teachers because I am not an expert in doing what I am describing) We were able to get our camera recognized but we have yet to successfully capture an image from it. There may be some issue with the decompression drivers we loaded. I will let you know what we did after we figure out the problem. To recompile the kernel we just used standard linux directions researchable on the Internet and made sure we selected the items the camera we are trying to use asked for in its documentation. I downloaded the WDL 2.2 directly from the http://www.blast.com/wd_install.html page for the CD ISO (burn to CD or otherwise convert into installable form). Once we got it on CD we just ran the installation. I also want to know- is the discussion list archived anywhere? ???

It is all up and running now, I only had to add modprobe -v ne io=0x300 irq=5 to my /etc/rc/rc.modules I am also comunicating with my digital camera, using the usb-storage module, so I am well on my way to getting this first application done. Poking around the system I find many interesting things. I got pure-ftp working, ssshd works, and I can remote log in from a Windows box, using PuTTY. I see so many scripts, stuff you guys did. How about a short note on what all this stuff is? A White Dwarf HowTO? I know, we are supposed to dig in and get or hands dirty, this embedded Linux right... But, a breif note from you guys would go a long way to help non-gurus like me get oriented, and apply all the great work you have done. I have asked this one before, it sure would be instructive to read the mail list archives, to see other problems/answers/questions. Not re-ask or reinvent something that has already been done. Can you tell me where they are? or send me a tarball? Thanks again, Randy Dawson-------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
