It isD525 board, LPT port is enabled and set to EPP in BIOS. /proc/ioports has this line: 0378-037a : parport0 And that tells me that parport address 0x0378 is correct. What am I missing here? What does it mean - "failed to reset fpga"? Also I am suspicious about "ioaddr_hi=0x0778". What does it mean? I have hostmot2-firmware-7i43-2 and hostmot2-firmware-7i43-4 packages installed in Synaptic package manager. Both of them are version 0.8 Any ideas, where should I look? And one more question: My 7i43 board should take care of 6 stepper drives. How do I specify, which I/O pin of the 7i43 is step and which is dir pin for a particular joint? I have attached 7i42 board and have already wired the stepper drives. I am planning on attaching 7i37 card on the second 50-pin connector to provide inputs from homing switches.
