Re: NI DAQCard6036 and SuSE 10

Hello Richard,

sorry, that my answer comes so late, but no at least with some more
detailed information...

> do you have cardinfo installed? 

No, when I tried to install cardinfo, I found, that it's not more
supported. To see the card information I use "pccartctl info". This is
part of the pcmciautils-package (see below for the output).

After running your script (I removed the RTAI lines, cause I compiled
comedi without RTAI) the comedi-driver is load (as it should be, and
the /dev/comedi[s]) are created.
 
After inserting the card, "dmesg" says:

        cs: memory probe 0xb4000000-0xb40fffff: excluding
        0xb4000000-0xb400ffff
        
"udevmonitor" says:

        UEVENT[1140596818]
        add_at_/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:06:04.0/0.0
        UDEV  [1140596818]
        add_at_/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:06:04.0/0.0

and "pccardctl info" gives:

        PRODID_1="National Instruments"
        PRODID_2="DAQCard-6036E"
        PRODID_3=""
        PRODID_4=""
        MANFID=010b,0245
        FUNCID=255


so at least the card is detected.

But then no comedi drivers as "ni_mio_cs" are loaded. as I remember
well, on Suse 9.3 this happened after inserting the card even without
loading the comedi module before...

Does anybody of you has an idea, how to solve this problem? 

I think, because of the changings in hotplugging (udev/hotplug) there is
nothing, that runs the comedi start script now. 


Thanks and cheers,
Thomas
