Subject: Status of CX25821 PCI-E capture driver
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2009 09:46:50 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AD86B3A.8010704@apple2pl.us> (raw)
I recently picked up a 16 port DVR card from China which uses two
CX25821 chips. I compiled the staging driver for it and was able to
load it successfully with kernel 2.6.32-rc2. But I can't find any /dev
devices to get at the inputs. I created a character device with a
major/minor of 81/0 but am unable to open it.
What device major/minor should I be using or is the driver that far
yet? Do I need to add a card definition to get this going?
Again, I'm using kernel 2.6.32-rc2 with the CX25821 staging module.
