pci 6025E and 8255 support

Hello -- 
 
I have successfully been using the ni_pcimio driver with my 6025  
card, and now wish to begin using the digital I/O features as well. 
 
the following output from the "lsmod" program is:  
-bash-2.05b# lsmod 
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted 
ni_pcimio              28544   0

comedi                 23956   0  [ni_pcimio 8255] 
 
the following output from the "info" program is:  
-bash-2.05b# ./info

how can I gain access to the 8255 subdevice? Does it is subdevice 3 ?  
 
Thanks,
