The pinout depends on both which firmware you have loaded and which config you passed to thee hm2_pci (or hm2_5i20) driver at load-time. If you're using 2.2.8 or Trunk, the driver will show the actual pinout in the dmesg at load-time; "debug_pin_descriptors" is not needed. If you're using hostmot2 with an older 2.2, you're probably best off upgrading. ;-) Also note that there's a bug in the 2.2.8 hostmot2 firmware, specifically with the step generator, that results in slower-than-requested movements and possibly following errors. If you're on Trunk you're fine, if you're on 2.2.8 please grab the fixed firmwares from Trunk here, until 2.2.9 is released: <http://cvs.linuxcnc.org/cvs/emc2/src/hal/drivers/mesa-hostmot2/firmware/5i20/> -- Sebastian Kuzminsky "Okay, people.
