NWR04B: Look at the board, dumbass
07 Oct 2005Okay, so if you look at the goddamned chip on the NWR04B, you see it's a Hynix HY29LV160-BT, which is not nearly the same as an SST39VF08. I've got the datasheet, at least, so I can look and see if there's maybe some simple change to the driver I'm using to make it work.
That's ugly, though (but no uglier than my debugging code...ugh), and I need to make that better. The MTD folks are no longer supporting the 2.4 kernel; however, looks like the uClinux folks have backported the MTD stuff. Which means I might try upgrading to the latest uClinux version and see if I can port my changes over...although frankly, I'm scared that I'll just be back at square one with this project and trying to figure out why the hell I can't print to the screen.
Yeah, it's an irrational fear, but if I can just break this out into a separate driver I'll be happy. Anyhow, it doesn't look like this particular chip is supported yet by the MTD people, so that's less of an incentive to move up. Or more of an incentive...maybe the closest I'll come to getting a patch into the Linux kernel tree. :-)

Not sure where I should ask this (perhaps I should ask the author of this site), but I am also looking for the Lanware firmware. Any care to post a copy?

i know this is not on topic but I'm looking for the Lanware firmware (WR1133_Lanware_0411V311.dlf) because the site is down
does any one have a mirror or can upload it for me?
thanks in advance
