PCAN-Light for LINUX is the easy to use Software Interface for PEAK-System CAN-Hardware.The PCAN drivers for LINUX work with Kernel Version 2.4 up to Kernel 2.6.25. The complete package is distributed under the GPL. If you have any questions about the drivers please contact us. The API (Application Programming Interface) for the different PCAN-PC hardware is the same. This make it easy to develop software which work with different PEAK CAN-Hardware Interface. But be carefull while using these drivers with non PEAK CAN PC Hardware. The PEAK-CAN Hardware Moduls and drivers use special fiunctions which are only running with a 100% compatible PCAN-PEAK Hardware.
If you ned technical information about the PEAK CAN-Hardware goto http://www.peak-system.com Any questions ??...send our LINUX team a mail: E-Mail to linux@peak-system.com Interested in CANOpen for LINUX ? We support the CANFestival Project: http://canfestival.sf.net CanFestival is an OpenSource (LGPL) CANOpen framework. We like to thank the major PCAN-Linux developer Klaus Hitschler for his excellent work ! Also many thanks for the Socket CAN support from Oliver Hartkopp and Wolfgang Grandegger. The Xenomai implementation was done by Edouard Tisserant and Laurent Bessard - thanks for the great job.. Here some information about the driver's licensing:The driver itself is linked inside the kernel, this does no harm since the driver is GPL'd. I does matter if you like to modify the driver itself to your needs and redistribute this modified driver. Then you are forced topublish this modification. If you use only the driver's services from your user program it is the samesituation like using kernel provided services from a user program. (Note that the driver's services are only of use through kernel services.) It does not matter if your user program is open or closed source and what licence however. To ease access to the driver's services PEAK provides a library 'libpcan.so'. This library is LGPL'd and therefore can be linked to even closed source programs without any consequences. But if you modify the library you have to give back this modification to the community if you distribute the modified library. ^ back to the top ^ "embedded systems 2008" Release V6.7 Driver Download Version 6.7

PCAN-Linux Customer ProjectsCAN WEB InterfaceThe first customer project is a CAN WEB Interface from Markus Germann. Markus implement a complete WEB Interface for sending and receiveing CAN messages over the Internet. It works with USB, Dongle and PCI PEAK CAN Interface using Suse 8.1 and a Apache WEB Server. The project aslo support High Layer WAGO I/O communication.

!!that´s it..now the problem is fixed maybe you have more more problem with the german signs: change
