digital IO unused in daqboard2000

Hi,

I succesfully tested demo programs related to analog IO but digital IO is
not working.

Calling to "comedi_config /dev/comedi0 daqboard2000" generates in the kernel
log the following:

Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel: comedi0: daqboard2000:
ids2daqboard2000_resetLocalBus
Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel: daqboard2000_reloadPLX
Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel: daqboard2000_pulseProgPin 1
Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel: daqboard2000_resetLocalBus
Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel: daqboard2000_reloadPLX
Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel: 8255 support not configured -- disabling
subdevice
Feb 22 18:11:59 imi kernel:

and the test program "info" from comedilib/demo yields this output:

[root_at_imi demo]# ./info
overall info:

My problem is that the subdevice 2 (digital IO is not enabled).
Where sould I configure support for the 8255?

RedHat 9 with vanilla kernel 2.4.20
comedi 0.7.67
comedilib 0.7.21

Thanks in advance
