 |
|
Yes another ACX post.. I think i've read them all but still cant figure this one out.
Loaded ACX using the latest snapshot and compiled it into my kernel source
my dmesg reports this:
acx: found ACX111-based wireless network card at 0000:02:02.0 irq3 blah blah
using IRQ 3
requesting firmware image 'tiacx111c16'
acx: firmware image 'tiacx111c16' was not provided. Check your hotplug scripts
requesting firmware image 'tiac111'
acx: firmware image 'tiac111' was not provided. Check your hotplug scripts
acx: reset_dev() FAILED
acx_pci: probe of 0000:02:02.0 failed with error -5
USB module v0.3.19 initialized, probing for devices...
usbcore: registerd new driver acx_usb
I had the firmware originally in /lib/firmware.. but have since copied it to some other locations that were suggested.
I have hotplug supported enabled in my kernel (i think) i know its enabled in a couple of areas, but I could be missing something.
It seems to find the USB driver fine and load it.. so why not load the rest??
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
I just checked firmware.agent in the hotplug dir and FIRMWARE_DIR is set to /lib/firmware |

Your /lib/firmware should look something like:
| Code: | tiacx100 tiacx100r11 tiacx100usb tiacx111c16 tiacx111r16
tiacx100r0D tiacx100r15 tiacx111 tiacx111c17 tiacx111r17 |
So basically, you've either got the firmware in the wrong directory or named wrong. On gentoo the driver only looks in /lib/firmware |

I'm seeing exactly the same problem now. There's one other entry 'search' finds that is this same issue, but nobody seems to have found an answer yet, so
-bump-
Anyone got any ideas on this? I'm seeing pretty much exactly the same problem; I modprobe the acx driver and I get:
| Code: | acx: this driver is still EXPERIMENTAL
acx: reading README file and/or Craig's HOWTO is recommended, visit http://acx100.sf.net in case of further questions/discussion
acx: compiled to use 32bit I/O access. I/O timing issues might occur, such as non-working firmware upload. Report them

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8952 Feb 6 14:34 tiacx111r17 |
This is, of course, what hotplug's conf file claims to be expecting:
| Code: | localhost ~ # grep FIRMWARE_DIR= /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent
FIRMWARE_DIR=/lib/firmware |
Looks there, looks readable, looks to be in the 'right' place... what am I missing here?

I've got the same problem with my acx100 PCI card... 
There is this:
| Quote: | acx: this driver is still EXPERIMENTAL
acx: reading README file and/or Craig's HOWTO is recommended, visit http://acx100.sf.net in case of further questions/discussion
acx: compiled to use 32bit I/O access. I/O timing issues might occur, such as non-working firmware upload. Report them |
Perhaps that's the point! But how can I disable 32bit access?
Btw: It was already functional for six month on a debian system.
Greedings,
PistolPete |

| Exactly the same problem here with my laptop and a vigor card (acx100). Perhaps someone now got a solution here? |

Mine asks for tiacx111cFF. It also suggests setting ACX_IO_WIDTH to 16 instead of 32. Not sure where to do that. |
