Note on installation and using the Linux Apogee Drivers v.0.5 from The Random Factory (http:/www.random.factory). 1. The content of the CD is located in smokey.stuff/apogee_driver_linux. The installation scripts puts the software into /opt/apogee. 2. Problems/Fixes: 2.1. Needed to re-compile the driver module /opt/apogee/src/apogee/module/apogeePCI.o to work with our version of the kernel. I had may error in the compile, and found I need to modified the following line in the makefile from: CFLAGS = -Wall -I../../../include to CFLAGS = -Wall -I/usr/src/linux/include -I../../../include Linux 2.4.x needs the explicte include, otherwise many compile error in the header file are produced. 3. You can using the tcl script (/opt/apogee/modinstall) to install the drivers and setup the device nodes. Here is how to do it manally. 3.1 Make /dev node (for ppi): mknod /dev/apppi0 c 61 0 mknod /dev/apppi1 c 61 1 mknod /dev/apppi2 c 61 2 3.2 - In rc.local, make the module load at boot time. insmod /opt/apogee/src/apogee/module/apogeePPI.o apppi_addr=0x378 3.2 - running the random factory's software: /opt/apogee/install - Run this once to setup you user account. ~/startapogee - starts the random factory software. 4.
