Hi Giles,

Thanks. I thought I had already tried all combinations but I was wrong. 
Your advice moved me to mess about a little more. All seems to be 
working now. Phew....


If you would care to comment, is this not a bit of a black art? It seems 
super primitive to have to mess about with PCI slots until there is no 
conflict. Why is this not taken care of more decently by firmware / OS?

No rebuke to anyone (I'm too clueless myself) just very curious. Is it 
so hard or are there fundamental complexities in automatically sorting 
this out? untracktable problem? This question obviously has no relation 
to xenomai. My apologies but it may be ignored of course. :)

Kind regards

Roland.
