I was wondering if it would be possible to get the driver for Texas Instrument FlashMedia Cardreaders in the next version of openSUSE.
The
driver is available at http://developer.berlios.de/projects/tifmxx/
(Version 0.6 so far) and I tested it on 10.2; it works perfect.On the web page it's mentioned that never versions are part of the main kernel... but so far, with 2.6.20-rc5 I did not manage to get that thing working. (ok: I did not compile an own kernel on my Notebook yet....)
if it's in the mainline kernel, yes, openSUSE 10.3 will have it. :) It will be based on at least 2.6.20.
Bernhard, as I said: with 2.6.20-rc5 (did not get the latest upgrade to rc6 yet) the reader is not working. I am completely aware that 10.3 will be on 2.6.20 kernel. And as I said: I did not have a look in the kernel config yet.. so maybe the module is just not build or whatever... some fundamental answers would help more here.

Hi, Currently I'm using a configed & compiled 2.6.19.2- the latest stable kernel with TIFM support in the mainline codes. And it's working fine except that KDE does not pop up a browsing window as it once did in SUSE 10.1. So I have to mount it manually everytime. Well, basicly, the module is working fine. I suppose your problem a kernel config thing. Anyway,it's even fine in 2.6.19. Guess you'd config and recompile the kernel 2.6.20 RCn.

Hi, I opened a bugzilla entry for this, and hopefully we can get the driver compiled in the default tree by Novell. This would make it wider available also to 'normal' people and it would solve issues in case of updated kernels. The bugzilla entry is at: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=239773 Dominique --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
