Aha! On the optiplex, you ARE using the parport interface of the 7i90. This will not work for the pi, and you will need to reprogram the 7i90 with the same configuration, but with SPI as part of the filename, doing that on the optiplex. Once thats done and everything is rebooted, the card won't be seen by the optiplex, but will by the pi when the cableing is correct. Jon, whats the url to find your little interface adapter pcb on OSHPark? Jeremy will need that and 3 120 ohm chip resistors and the matching header connectors to hook the pi up to the 7i90. > I found the pin information in the scrolling through halscope , with > my config print I was able to look at existing Hal file and sort the > pins , signals and parameters that I need to get together. Good and I apologize for the confusion I caused by assuming you were actually running it on the pi. The optiplex and the parport this makes available is a different critter entirely. The files I sent will not run on the optiplex, but should run on a real pi. The diff is the interface, and thats huge. Your card is presently setup with 7i90_epp_rest_of_filename.bit, will need reprogrammed by mesaflash to a 7i90_spi_rest_of_filename.bit when you are ready to put it on the pi. > Thank you > for your patience , I will return to this .
