Debian stable without any problem. I am using an Ines &lt;br /&gt;
GPIB-PCI-XL card with a Keithley 196 connected. &lt;br /&gt;
My gpib.conf is: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;interface { &lt;br /&gt;
minor = 0 &lt;br /&gt;
board_type = "ines_pci_unaccel" &lt;br /&gt;
name = "INES" &lt;br /&gt;
pad = 0 &lt;br /&gt;
timeout = T3s &lt;br /&gt;
pci_bus = 0 &lt;br /&gt;
pci_slot = 6 &lt;br /&gt;
master = yes &lt;br /&gt;
} &lt;br /&gt;
device { &lt;br /&gt;
minor = 0 &lt;br /&gt;
name = "Keithley196" &lt;br /&gt;
pad = 6 &lt;br /&gt;
sad = 0 &lt;br /&gt;
eos = 0xa &lt;br /&gt;
set-reos = yes &lt;br /&gt;
set-xeos = yes &lt;br /&gt;
set-bin = no &lt;br /&gt;
} &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Loading the kernel module ines_gpib gives the &lt;br /&gt;
following (normal) messages: &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: gpib: registered ines_pci interface &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: gpib: registered ines_pci_unaccel interface &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: gpib: registered ines_pci_accel interface &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: gpib: registered ines_isa interface &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then I started gpib_config and got the following &lt;br /&gt;
error message to: &lt;br /&gt;
syntax error, unexpected $undefined, expecting $end &lt;br /&gt;
or T_INTERFACE or T_DEVICE &lt;br /&gt;
input error on line 1 of /etc/gpib.conf &lt;br /&gt;
The corresponding kernel log gives this messages: &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: gpib: (debug) request module returned 256 &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: gpib0: exiting autospoll thread &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:00:06.0[A] -&amp;gt; GSI 17 &lt;br /&gt;
(level, low) -&amp;gt; IRQ 169 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However I tested the basic communication with the &lt;br /&gt;
Keithley and it seem to work. The program ibtest &lt;br /&gt;
gives some reasonable output when reading from the &lt;br /&gt;
Keithley. &lt;br /&gt;
But I get a lot of kernel messages: &lt;br /&gt;
kernel: ines gpib: fifo error &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</summary></entry></feed>
