I will try with 2.5.16 next week, and let you know. Do you know if it is possible to make it work for 2.6.15 too? (Maybe with a Debian specific pacth, in order to make gpib modules work with etch kernel.. unfortunately I don't have the needed knowledge of linux kernel to make a patch..) >> I also tried on a sarge box.. but the module package doesn't >> build.. there is an error I think related to sarge kernels. rj> May well be.

Actually, 2.6.12 is the only kernel in which I was able to get everything working perfectly. rj> What card are you using? National Instrument PCMCIA.
