CCSv5 on Linux - legacy C64x device support: XDS560v2 driver not present to support C6412/DM642/C6416?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C6412

Team,
Go the following feedback on CCSv5 Linux:

Question on emulating legacy C64x devices with CCSv5 on LINUX:
Up to now it seems that the following two combinations up and running:
- Win XP, CCS v4, XDS560v2, TMS320C6412
- Win XP, CCS v5, XDS560v2, TMS320C6412
What still doesn't work is CCS v5 under Linux.
When I try to set up the same target configuration, I get an error message:
    "Unable to find an appropriate device driver for connection type TIXDS560 and C6412"
Other emulators also don't support C64xx. The only working combination is a simulator.
It seems there are no Linux drivers at all for the C64xx CPU family.
Are such drivers are available or will be available in future?


Thanks and best regards,

Anthony

    Added a picture so that you can see the exact error message.

    Some additional information: Linux version is Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, the same as needed for the Integra's Linux SDK. Emulator is a Spectrum Digital XDS560v2 STM. Spectrum Digital says it's a TI issue. In the directory where the drivers reside are files for the C64+ architecture (libtixds560c64x_plus.so, libsdgo6400usb_plus.so), but not for C64xx. Maybe the C64xx+ drivers also fit C64xx?

    Hello, To avoid confusion: AnBer originally started the discussion for me. My CCS versions are: 5.0.0.201010041800 / Build ID N201010041800 and 5.1.0.07001 / Build ID N201108111000 / Spectrum Digital Emulation 5.1.0.9 / TI emulation 5.0.470.0 Both installations only have drivers for C64+, but not for C64.

    Hi Guenter,

    My apologies for the very late response. I found out that C64x is not supported with CCSv5.1 on Linux. There is a way to hack in this support but be aware that it is indeed a "hack". Let me know if you still are interested.

    Sorry,

    ki

    Hi Ki, Yes, I'm definitely interested in this hack. I'll possibly be developing for some Linux based DSP system with intermediate support for C6412, so I want to avoid switching between Windows and Linux. thanks & best regards Guenter

    Hello ki,

    I have nearly the same problem as Guenter. I am using CCS5.1 unter Linux, Jtag adapter Spectrum Digital XDS560v2 STM and try to connect it to a C64xx/C6416 processer (e.g. on a DSK6416). May you provide me with the "hack" as well?

    P.S. the Jtag connection to the c6416 with CCS 5.1 run under  Windows XP (running in a VM) works but I like to run the complete development chain under Linux

    Thanks in advance,

    Johannes

    Hello,

    I am interested in the hack as well,

    is there a link for it?

    thanks
