Re: [Linux-gpib-general] PCIIA problem

[Mitchell F. <mit...@ya...>]

I also have a PCII/PCIIA card. When I configure it to
use the same dma, irq, and io address as my PCIIA, and
try to do ibtest, it results in the command bytes
error:

enter primary address for device (not interface board)
[0-30]: 26
 trying to open pad = 26 on /dev/gpib0 ...
 clearing device..
 gpib clear error
 ibsta = 0x130  
 iberr= 0 EDVR 
 ibcnt = 0

Both of my tests were done with the CVS source.

I also have a PCMCIA National Instruments card I am
interested in using with linux. Is there any support
or planned support for it?

Thanks,
Mitchell
