The error message in Eric's original email indicates that the 7i43 didnt even come out of CPLD reset: > hm2_7i43: /DONE is not low after CPLD reset! This is in hm2_7i43_reset(), in hm2_7i43.c. The driver writes address 0x7f7f, writes data 0x5A, then (when the CPLD has control) writes address 0x01, writes data 0x00, waits 1 us, writes data 0x01, and waits 2 ms. Then it reads a byte and checks the LSb, if it's 1 it emits that error and refuses to go on. In my experience it indicates total lack of communication with the 7i43. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky sudden wind it stole my hat and i went on chasing it -- Gogol Bordello ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
