Detecting PS2Link

Post by Drakonite »

I've brought this up on irc a couple times, but with no real results... I hope someone on the forums will have a good idea.

Is there an (easy and compact) way to detect if ps2link is running?

...of if anyone knows how to get SifSearchModuleByName working, that'd be just as good...

For anyone is following this and cares, I found out the sbv patches contain an EE side routine to search the module table by name -- which does work, unlike SifSearchModuleByName.

This solves the real root of the problem, and I'd assume if you passed the correct ps2link iop module name to it it'd work for figuring out if ps2link was loaded as well.
