Does it have an NI TNT chip on it? The "old" NI GPIB cards used the TI GPIB controller chip, and I don't think John's driver will work (well, if at all) with that. There's actually four different NI cards; the really old NEC-based ones, the TI based ones, the TI based ones with the GPIB accelerator chip and the TNT based cards. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
