[Paparazzi-devel] Problems with Maxstream SIO Drivers?

[Toby Seaman]

Hi Chaps,

Does anyone have advice about getting the Maxstream XBPro USB device to 
work under Linux?  I know it uses a similar chipset to the FTDI serial 
adaptor used for writing the bootloader.

My FTDI cable does work fine, but I'm at a bit of a loss working out how 
to get the Maxstream working. There is a drivers disc with the unit, but 
the source code version of the USB SIO driver is much older than that in 
my Debian distro, and I can't persuade the old version to even compile.

I'm guessing that I may not have to do anything other than insmod the 
driver with the right options, but am not presently getting anywhere 
weith the Maxstream support guys.

I know the device itself is fine as I can use it through windows without 
problem.

Any hints greatfully received!

Toby.
