gpib_config crashes with PCI488 (cec_gpib)

Anonymous — Tue, 21 Mar 2006 01:05:47 -0000

I have two Keithley PCI 488 GPIB cards. Two systems,
both cloned, running 2.6.12 (slackware), and linux gpib
3.2.05.

One of the cards works great, not a single problem. We
then ordered a second card, and with an identical
setup, it crashes when running gpib_config. Loading the
modules (cec_gpib, nec7210, gpib_common) is fine, but
the second gpib_config runs I see this output and then
the system hangs:

gpib: (debug) request module returned 256
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:02.0[A] -> GSI 18 (level,
low) -> IRQ 18
plx9050 base address 0xdc00
nec7210 base address 0xd880

Swapping the bad card into either system gives the same
output and hangs. I'm thinking of calling Keithly and
just returning it, but if there are any ideas or
suggestions I'm all open.
