First just to show that from a physical perspective the 7i92 is there on 192.168.1.121 pi@linuxcnc:~/mesaflash $ ping 192.168.1.121 PING 192.168.1.121 (192.168.1.121) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.1.121: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.120 ms But the mesaflash software doesn't know it's supposed to use the default ip. pi@linuxcnc:~/mesaflash $ ./mesaflash --device 7i92 --readhmid lbp16_access.send_packet: Resource temporarily unavailable Aborted pi@linuxcnc:~/mesaflash $ ./mesaflash --device 7i92 --addr 192.168.1.121 --readhmid Configuration Name: HOSTMOT2 General configuration information: BoardName : MESA7I92 FPGA Size: 9 KGates FPGA Pins: 144 BTW. The upside is that now we have something reproducible. It may well be something outside of mesaflash but the issue doesn't show up with older versions of the OS and what really amazed me is it worked on the Beagle. Has me wondering if booted a machinekit onto the beagle would it work? Probably not. The hm2_eth is probably not compatible with machinekit but just curious. _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
