[Linux-gpib-general] Closer but still no cigar...

[Sridhar A. <sa...@es...>]

All, (frank!), I have successfully compiled the latest linux-gpib sources 
(from the CVS tree).  I am running a 2.4.2 kernel. 

I have an INES pcmcia card and a Tektronix TDS-310 scope (configured as 
address = 1). 

cardmgr version 3.1.22

When I run ``ibtest'' in the examples directory here is what I get:

[root@erebus linux-gpib]# ./examples/ibtest
enter primary address for device [0-30]: 1
trying to open pad = 1 on /dev/gpib0 ...
 
 ibBoardFunc    :[Wed Mar 27 23:49:58 2002](-)<  ERR>  EDVR <OS Error>
               -- errno=19 (No such device)
failed to bring device online
failed to get descriptor

(I ran as root so that there should be no permission problems on /dev/gpib).  

Here is the result of lsmod:

[root@erebus linux-gpib]# lsmod

and the output of /var/log/messages:

Any suggestions appreciated!
