Having just updated my Gentoo kernel from 2.6.11 to
2.6.13
(trying to get my Novation Speedio to work - that's still
WIP), I can't get my MIDIsport 2x2 to work any more. Under
2.6.11, it worked easily - I just had to fetch
midisport_firmware-0.5.tar.bz2 from Sourceforge, and follow
the instructions in the readme file there, which showed me
how to set up the firmware loader. But I can't get this to
work any longer. I can manually upload the firmware to the
MIDIsport using this command:
fxload -D /proc/bus/usb/XXX/YYY -I MidiSport2x2.ihx
The MIDIsport then flashes its lights and changes its ID and
bus address ("renumerates", in the wonderful jargon), but
doesn't pick up its driver
I have put an entry in /etc/hotplug/usb.usermap, pointing to
the script (midisport_fw) that's supposed to load the
firmware, but no messages appear in the log, suggesting
that the script is not getting run.
Does /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug exist?
Is CONFIG_HOTPLUG enabled?
