Hi Jon,
Yes, well at least I think so. What address could it be besides c030?

I guess I don't know for sure. Your 'univstepdiag' program gives me a
'Segmentation fault' error and the output from dmesg after attempting to start
LinuxCNC is:
[ 8.519908] parport_pc 0000:08:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ
18
[ 8.520179] parport0: PC-style at 0xc030 (0xc020), irq 18, using FIFO
[PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP]
[ 8.620688] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven).

Do you test the USC boards before you send them out? If so the board should be
fine. I have not applied any power to it other than the 9v wall wart and that
has only been wired up correctly.
