Hi,
there is indeed a driver for the 2.4.x kernel series (including source),
but onfortunately also a BIG FAT copyright statement at the heading of
the sources. Something like:

So, I'll have to inquire them first before I (and the company I work
for) take the risk of disclosure.
I'll get back on this as soon as I can. If I can be of any help in the
meantime, I'll be glad to hear from you.
Well, it might be simpler to buy an already supported CAN PCI card.
Thank for your time and interest so far.
Good luck.
Wolfgang.

It was not working for the IXXAT PCI card, at least (but I have not yet
understodd why). Check with "$ lspci -vv" how the device is mapped and
what IRQ number is used. The right thing is to implement a PCI driver.

As already mention, I'm currently working on a driver for the IXXAT PCI
card. As I see it, a generic driver is not feasible as the mapping, the
recognition of the second channel and the IRQ handling is quite
different.
Is there a Linux driver on the CRROM your got with your Advantech 1680
PCI card? That would help a lot.
Wolfgang.
