Re: [Emc-users] HAL setup of Mesa 4i65
Hi Peter, thanks for the info. We finally got around to messing with this again. We did a couple things: 1) Set the 4i65 jumpers back to their default positions, that was definitely part of the issue... 2) Updated BIOS 3) set jumpers on the motherboard relating to PCI/ISA bus configuration. After doing so, the new 'lspci' output is 01:07.0 Bridge [0680]: PLX Technology, Inc. PCI9030 32-bit 33MHz PCI - IOBus Bridge [10b5:9030] Subsystem: PLX Technology, Inc.

In Dave Camarillo's situation, the hm2_pci driver loads but does not initialize any boards. It's happy at load-time because it doesnt make any expectations about what boards to expect -- it uses the PCI hotplug system to learn about boards, and it's happy waiting for boards to appear.

It's happened before that the Subsystem info was set wrong, and it would cause the driver to not recognize the card. Also, it's missing Region 5, which is supposed to be 64K of memory...
