AFAIK this driver does not work with 2.2 nor 2.4 kernels.

The NI gpib kernel module works flawlessly on 2.2 machines,
we are using this driver with a PCI GPIB card and the
machine in question has an uptime of 248 days at the moment.
Don't know if there is support for 2.4, though.

Jochen

GPIB is terribly device-specific. What board do you intend to use?
National Instruments has a so-called driver for their TNT4882 on
their web-site. I was never able to get it to even compile, much
less work.

I have a driver written for that chip. It's not GPLed, but it
could be if there is enough interest. In any event, I could send
you the source to try out. Just don't publish it yet. Let me
know because I could use additional input for testing. In other
words, if asked, I would just say that you are helping to test
a driver...

I'm doing a project which port a component testing program in DOS which
use GPIB to linux
Does the Linux kernel support GPIB?


I find a linux gpib driver in the  linux lab project
http://www.llp.fu-berlin.de/

but the newest version is release at 1999 and i wonder if it still under

Moreover,it is for kernel 1.2.x or 2.0.x and i wonder it will still work
