Bitcoin open source s/ware project.
by GJB
Hi,
I've been involved with an open source software project,
http://www.bitcoin.org , for about the last 5-6 months.
If anybody is interested, I can come along to one of the meet ups for a
show and tell and get people up to speed with various aspects of it.
Cheers,
Greg B.

PCI driver not writing to config space
by Giriprasad Deviprasad
Hi All,
I have a pci driver like:
define VENDOR_ID 0x1415
#define DEVICE_ID1 0xc140
#include<linux/module.h>
#include<linux/version.h>
#include<linux/kernel.h>
#include<linux/pci.h>
#include<linux/ioport.h>
#include<asm/unistd.h>
#include<linux/slab.h>
#include<linux/fs.h>
#include<asm/uaccess.h>
#include<asm/io.h>
#include<linux/kdev_t.h>
#include<asm/fcntl.h>
#include<linux/sched.h>
#include<linux/wait.h>
#include<linux/errno.h>
#include<asm/irq.h>
#include<asm/ioctl.h>
#include<linux/string.h>
#include<linux/interrupt.h>
init_module (void)
{
short int curr_device;
dev = pci_find_device (VENDOR_ID, DEVICE_ID1, NULL);
j = pci_enable_device (dev);
curr_device = 0;
printk("Init : Reading and writing Config space.........\n");
pci_read_config_word (dev, 0x02, (u16 *)&curr_device);
printk("Init : Current Device id = %x\n", (curr_device & 0x00FFFF));
curr_device = 0xc145;
pci_write_config_word (dev, 0x02, curr_device);
pci_read_config_word (dev, 0x02, (u16 *)&curr_device);
printk("Init : After writing to Config space, Current Device id = %x\n", (curr_device & 0x00FFFF));
return 0;
}
void
cleanup_module (void)
{
printk ("Closing pci \n");
}
When I insmod this driver after build, it shows:
Jul 20 15:11:03 localhost kernel: Init : Reading and writing Config space.........
Jul 20 15:11:03 localhost kernel: Init : Current Device id = c140
Jul 20 15:11:03 localhost kernel: Init : After writing to Config space, Current Device id = c140
Any clues as to why is not writing 0xc145 to the pci config space?
curr_device = 0xc145;
pci_write_config_word (dev, 0x02, curr_device);
Thanks & Regards,
D.Giriprasad

HP Mini 110 - 3627TU Netbook - LQ858PA#ABG - PLEASE READ IF SHOPPING _NOW_ FOR A NETBOOK!
by Elroy
Hi All.
Just a quick note.
Yesterday I bought the above (netbook/6-cell battery/ext. charger) from
Noel Leeming at The Base in Hamilton for $379 ALL UP.
They tried to push a $99 warranty (Consumer Guarantees Act does this so
waste of $$), and MS Word/etc as well hehe.
Cheapest I could find this on the ´Net was $430.
Brief specs:
Intel Atom N570 1.66GHz Dual-Core
1GB DDR3? RAM - Max 2GB.
~250GB SATA HDD
NM10 Express Chipset
Webcam
Sound
Bluetooth
802.11b/g/n Wireless
Grabbed Kubuntu Netbook iso, created usb boot drive, blew away Win7
Starter, installed fine, sound and wireless appear to work out of the
box (no drivers D/L´ed) - can see several other wireless APś in network
scan so I´m guessing that means itś working.
Bluetooth seems to be working (can see other devices).
Not sure when sale ends, so if interested be in quick.
Noel Leeming is very close to Dick Smith at The Base.
hope this helps someone.
Cheers,
Elroy.
This might help you out :-)
