If it's exactly this, except for the URL ;-), then it looks like the BIOS of your computer has not enabled the PCI parport card. All the Base Address Registers are disabled. The normal linux parport driver enables the BARs when they're needed, but since that driver isnt getting loaded, the BARs are left disabled and emc2's parport driver doesnt enable them. The workaround, until our parport driver gets fixed (which will probably be a while), is to enable the board before you tell emc2 to try to use it. I think this can be done by setpci poking the right bit in the right register, or maybe via /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00.10.0/enable or one of the other special files there. I dont know the specifics off the top of my head but that's a place to start. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky Dualism? Sure. Brain and Mind are different. "Brain" is a noun. "Mind" is a verb - it's what a properly functioning Brain does. -- DHuff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
