Cannot allocate memory with daqboard2000

Hello together,

I've been trying to install a daqboard2000 with comedi 0.7.63 allover on
a i586 under SuSe, Kernel 2.4.10. First it seemed that there was a
problem with the fpga initialisation. After adding a -i <filename> to
the comedi_config in modules.conf it now seemes that this is fixed:

  alias char-major-98     comedi
  alias char-major-98-1   daqboard2000
  post-install daqboard2000 /usr/sbin/comedi_config -v -i
/usr/local/include/daqboard2000_fpga.h /dev/comedi1 daqboard2000

but at the moment I get the message:

  configuring driver=daqboard2000
1075068936,251614,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,
  Configure failed!: Cannot allocate memory
  Check kernel log for more information
  Possible reasons for failure:
    Unknown
  /lib/modules/2.4.10/comedi/comedi/drivers/daqboard2000.o: post-install
daqboard2000 failed
  /lib/modules/2.4.10/comedi/comedi/drivers/daqboard2000.o: insmod
daqboard2000 failed

when calling   modprobe daqboard2000 . The same is with comedi 0.7.67
(here the fpga data in daqboard2000_fpga.h is missing?). I guessed the
device might need to have allocated "highmem" at boot time and tried to
have a mem=60M ( 4M less then my full memory) executed then. But that
did'nt change a thing. I allso checked for any any unresolved
dependencies - they are okay though.
Does anyone have an idea what else to try? What is the memory allocation
sceme comedi uses? Which file hosts the code?

Thanks in advance for any help!		Georg Tenckhoff
