[Linux-gpib-general] NI PCIIa: trouble running it

[Cezary S. <c_...@hf...>]

Hello Frank,

i want to use a NI PCII/IIa card with the gpib-package on a Redhat 7.2
System with a kernel 2.4.17 from kernel.org
This computer has limited harddisk space, so i am running a extremly
tiny installation => no X, no gcc ...
I compiled linux-gpib for this card on an other linux machine(same
source for kernel!) and copied all compiled files to the measurement
computer ... (including gpib.conf, mknod master libgpib.a)
On the measurement computer i can insmod gpib-common and gpib0, but the
computer has trouble "becoming active controller"!
ibchk freeses directly after "Check if Board present  OK"
How can i check the installation?
The README.PCIIA describes the two address switches on the card, what
about the other switches and jumpers?

Thank you

Greetings
Cezary
