Package: soundmodem
Version: 0.20-6.5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
I tried to configure soundmodem to use a CM119B-based USB sound device which
is embedded in a DINAH kit: https://hamprojects.info/dinah/ which uses one of
the
HID pins for PTT. soundmodemconfig failed to open /dev/hidraw0.
Upon reading the code I discovered two issues:
1. HAVE_LINUX_HIDRAW_H was not #defined.
2. The test for C-Media controller product IDs only went up to 0x0008 while the
version of the CM119B is 0x0012.
The fix is in the attached patch file and has also been submitted upstream:
https://gitlab.com/tsailer/soundmodem/-/merge_requests/3
1. Fixes configure.ac to look for <linux/hidraw.h>
2. Extends the test for the controller product ID.
The altered soundmodem.conf file demonstrates the settings with gpio="2" for
CM119B
signal GPI03.
