Message-ID: <351@cs.columbia.edu> Date: 27 Sep 89 19:00:40 GMT Reply-To: leland@cs.columbia.edu (Lee Woodbury) Organization: Columbia University, Dept. of Computer Science, NYC Lines: 27 Anyone, We're trying to use a 98625A (or B) High-Speed HP-IB Interface on our HP9000/320 workstation running HP-UX 6.2, but it doesn't work. Specifically, the open call on the raw device fails: "No such device or address". The raw device is as follows: crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 21 0x0f1f00 Mar 28 1989 /dev/hpib_raw.0f The interface did work under HP-UX 6.0.1. We have tried altering the interrupt levels and switching the interface to "slow" mode, but to no avail. HP's Configuration Reference Manual's section on the 98625A (Page A-392) says, "... not recommended for use as a Device I/O Library (DIL) HP-IB interface," but it doesn't say why or any more than that. Can anyone help?
