I can suggest purchasing the following: Linux Device Drivers - Alessandro Rubini (There is a second edition you probably want for new kernels). This book allowed me to figure out how PCI works in the linux kernel, so that you can get the base address for the memory area of the PCI card you are interested in (The Base Address Registers, or BAR). This book allowed me to write my own device driver for a Digital IO module, basically by reading and writing to PCI memory. Or you coudl poke around other peoples code, I like it in written form so that I can get a jumpstart into the architecture design. ~Ken >>> Mario Behn <behn_at_mirsl.ecs.umass.edu> 12/02 10:30 AM >>> Hi, i'm quite new to pci and register level programming and comedi. I have the NI 6602 counter/timer card here and want to use it with linux, and 'just' set it to output some signal. But i never did any pci card programming so far. Does anyone can suggest me a document to read or can discribe the rought way? Thank you very much.
