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...

   Thanks,
         Dave
