[Prism54-devel] problems in big endian platform - cannot handle oid 0x00000400

Hi everyone,

I compiled the drivers with Jean-Baptiste's patches, but get the following 
errors:

I also tried the latest driver from the svn repository, but it does not work 
either.

All of these tests have been done with kernel 2.4.26 on an embedded computer 
(mips32 little endian).

Any hints?

Thanks in advance,

Olaf
