[Libphidget-devel] libphidget newbie post...

[Tom B. <tb...@ba...>]

sorry for being impatient and not waiting a few days to see if there is
any traffic on this list, but the sourceforge archives indicate zero
traffic since september... 

I see Jack on the commit list is working on an 'LP_8WAY_SERVO' I'm trying
to get the 888 interface kit up and running... anyhow, is anyone around

I'm making slow progress... the DBG statements had to be defined and
re-ordered to make my C compiler happy. --no-verify had to be deleted from
a line in ./configure to get configure to run... I've added ( ||
interfacekit = 888) to a bunch of the 488 code and I'm now at the point
where the code is trying to query the inputs on the device but I'm getting
USB timeouts and I'm now substantially over my head (it has found and
identified the device, so the USB layer would seem to be ok... it's
probably just some 488 specific stuff in the command? Unfortunately I
don't have any docs on the commands being sent in the USB datastream?
[you here/hear Chester?]) ... will keep slugging at it...

-Tom
