Re: using comedi_config with a AT-MIO-16E-10

FWIW, I am running both an NI AT-MIO-16DE-10 & an AT-MIO-16XE-50 & the 
comedi_config statement for both requires an address assigned to the card, 
for example 

/usr/local/sbin/comedi_config /dev/comedi0 ni_atmio 0x200

ISA cards (which use ISAPNP -- plug&play) are different from PCI cards in this 
respect.

I am using SuSE rather than Redhat, so I don't know how Redhat configures PNP, 
but I have the PNP configure statement in /etc/isapnp.conf

That file assigns the address used by the ISA card.
