Well, I looked through the list of drivers and found the ones you are discussing. I will try them when the board arrives. After researching it a bit and looking at the board specs, It is an 8255 pci board. Is the hal driver for the 8255 limited on the I/O? I would like to access all 96 bits of my board if I can...
