[Xenomai-help] RTCAN halfsize PC, PCI backplane, parallel port and...

[Roland Tollenaar]

Hi,

Firstly RTCAN has been functioning perfectly over the parallel port of a 
number of machines I have run it on. At the moment I am testing a 
halfsize PC with PCI backplane which has a parallel port linked from a 
COM port adapter as PCI card. Bios set to EPP mode irq 7 and address 
0x378. The standard.

On calling modprobe xeno_can_peak_dng.ko type=epp io=0x378 irq=7 the 
result is

FATAL: Error inserting xeno_can_peak_dng: No such device.

Since I call this with a script I use on all other machines I am surely 
not doing something wrong. Before I start hollering at the vendor about 
his LPT card, is there a problem from the driver's point of view working 
with an LPT port over PCI?

Yes yes, the next step WILL be to use the peak PCI card.

Kind regards,

Roland

Does "dmesg" reveal other related error messages when you load the module?
