Re: [Linux-gpib-general] ibBoardOpen errno=2

Your pcII/IIa board has switchers or jumpers for setting the base address,
irq, dma channel, and whether it is in pcII or pcIIa mode.  See your
owner's manual (you can probably find a manual for it on NI's website).
You can see what ioports/irq/dma are in use already by looking in the
/proc directory.  For example, 'cat /proc/ioports'.

By the way, I am going to release a version 3.1.2 today which doesn't
really have any changes except to turn off some debugging messages I
accidentally left on for 3.1.1 so the package doesn't spam everyone's
kernel logs.
