RFXtrx433 vs Lacie Network Space 2

[math1985]

I am trying to see if it is possible to connect my Lacie Network Space 2 (Lite) NAS to the RFXtrx433 from RFXCOM.

The kernel of my NS2 is a custom kernel, 2.6.31.14-svn6790.

The RFXtrx433 uses the virtual com port driver from FTDI, which is available as a kernel driver.

- Would it be possible to add a kernel module? 'make'ing the kernel module fails with 'ftdi_sio.c:253:24: error: linux/init.h: No such file or directory', as I do not have the header files. However, Lacie seems to provide kernel sources. Can I derive the header files from these?

- Would there be a way to access the RFXtrx433 with libFTDI instead of with the FTDI kernel module?

- Is the NS Lite 2 already supported in the vanilla kernel?

Thank you in advance for any answers.

I found out that installing kernel modules is indeed possible. I documented this process at http://lacie.nas-central.org/wiki/Insta ... Space_2%29 .
