Re: comedi_config causes system to freeze with s626

Hi Kri

probably your system recognize the s626 at boot time and load the needed 
comedi modules and the rtai_sched, but not rtai_comedi.

To configure your s626, you have to remove manually the modules s626, comedi, 
comedi_fc, rtai_sched and rtai_hal, then modprobe rtai_comedi and modprobe 
s626. After these operations, you can safely configure your card with 
comedi_config.

Let me know if this works.
