What USB driver do you miss on OS4?

@Shadowolf

I have now read most of the CDC usb specs, and that class includes a lot of diffrent subclasses and protocols.. is there a specific Class/device you wanted support for.

Sorry for the late reply..
I have been too busy to work on the FTDI driver.
If you have one in the works, you're way ahead of me.

Good to see progress !!

No I havent done anything on that driver.

Only a adm8511 ethernet and ptp, I looked a little on pl2303 serial device.

And ? What happend ? I'm very interested in a pl2303 serial device, I even started to build one but failed to finish it so far

@abalaban

It came down to me not knowing how a serial device should work, so I wanted to have a look a the old 3.x source code to se how to build it... but I never came around to study it.

RWO

@rwo

Did you write something at all or nothing ? I can give some help if you need, just contact me in private.
I have two pl2303 harware here so I can test a pl2303.device.

Now you got me, so far I believed that CDC mostly is about emulating COM: just like what the FT232 do.

And with the lack of USB on my side I currently can only make general suggestions and not explore my demands.

What about porting libusb then?

Well I allready did that, but somehow it only works on my mashine..and I have try to find the damn bug.

Maybe I should try it again, as I see the date are all the way back to october 2005.

I can't remember how much I did, but I think I did what I could and that means all the device function and scanning the usb device for interfaces and endpoint but nothing more.

@rwo

any chance to make or port yeah o port pencam.vhi driver and tool OS4??? :) :) I have this driver on OS3 dan work great in comabination whit Poseidon and VHI studio...

@VooDoo

Are pencamp.vhi sources available ? I already made an OS4 vhi driver for my camera, so may be I can manage to build one for pencam.vhi ??
BTW what hardware is 'pencam' driver for ?

@rwo

When I was offering help for pl2303, it was not only help to test, but also to code... If you need some, just tell me.

@abalaban

hmm..this is driver for web cam its from Poseidon pack..

Have support for Webcams with STV680 Aiptek Pencam-Series, other cheap USB webcams with this chip PencamTool, pencam.vhi (both included)"

and that is what I need for oS4 :) maybe you can help me :)

@VooDoo

I don't think I will have time to write a driver from scratch without sources... Sorry

Especially for Hardware I don't have...

@abalaban

ok :( :(

@rwo

Scanner, first and foremost. ;)

@AlexC

I'm using a marrick LynX-10 interface on my micro-AOne.
I have not ported the drivers over yet, but it's easy enough to write scripts that work.

Lyle

@LyleHaze

shame that you have not enough time for a FTDI driver. I use garage diagnostic equipment with my Dell Laptop and winXP and this uses a USB serial interface with an FTDI driver. I would be especially interested if a driver existed for OS4 to be able to connect the diagnostic interface to my A1 and see what works. Mind you, I have noticed that the driver for windows is not very system friendly and keeps trying to reinstall itself depending which USB port I use.

@Swisso

ABout the reinstallation this is not an FDTI related problem, this is a Windows problem the same is true about almost every USB driver (even USB sticks).

Even my Virus synthesizer when i connect to a different usb port on my systers pc wants me to install driver. I use it when i want to update the firmware.
