hai brian,
Yes, u already said " timod in 2.18.0 " is broken. But, I am using the
same
LiS-2.18.0 on the following linux distribution also.
LINUX VERSION : Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 2)
KERNEL VERSION : 2.4.21-15.EL
I didn't face any of the problems.
Why timod in 2.18.0 was broken? Is it related to my driver? If it is the
case, I am using
the same driver and LiS-2.18.0 on other versions of Linux also; but I never
got this problem.
I am using XTI-0.7 (downloaded from gcom.com). My Tp02 driver is going
to use
the XTI/TLI library. Can I have ur guidence in resolving this issue.
Thanks in advance.
best regards,
kishore,packetware.
