thanks for the hint about not needing the kernel module. I only quoted the versions of my libusb because the kernel module includes usb.h, which on fedora seems to be provided by the libusb packages I mentioned.

I am just trying to get some python code talking to the iow. I apologize for any/all ...

Hi,

Has anyone gotten the IOW SDK (latest) to compile with a recent kernel? On Fedora Core 5 I get the following error -- as if my usb headers are too new / different:

# uname -a
Linux xxxx 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5 #1 SMP Thu May 4 21:16:04 EDT 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

# rpm -q kernel libusb ...

Unfortunately, this is failing to build on Fedora core 5 now (both with my makefile and the supplied one)...will start a new thread.

For the mains power switches I was also thinking of just ripping apart the remote control to a set like this:

...and hooking up the IOW outputs to the remote control. Depends on the inputs (of the remote control) being ...

Sorry for the elemental question but I'm looking to control a traffic-light-like array of 3 sets of 4 LEDs (one set for each of red, amber, and green). I have the IOWarrior 40 starter kit and each pin obviously has enough power to drive one LED but I'm not sure about 4.

1. Can 4 LEDs in parallel ...

I've got it working fine in Fedora Core 3's latest kernel....here's the Makefile that I put in the SDK/LinuxSDK/SuSE 9.2 or Kernel V2.6.9 and up/Source directory:

obj-m += iowarrior.o

all:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules

clean:
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname ...
