PCI parallel port error

[albabis]

Hi
I have to change the internal parallel port with a PCI one. I install the new one and the drivers from it.The port looks ok, when i run lspci -v
04:02.0 Parallel controller: SUNIX Co., Ltd. Device 1999 (prog-if 03)
Subsystem: SUNIX Co., Ltd. Device 0100
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 18
I/O ports at dce0 [size=8]
I/O ports at dce8 [size=8]
I/O ports at dcf0 [size=16]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 3

But when i start the EMC i take the message "Device or resource busy".
I have spend several hours reading previous messages and the documentation without lack.

What version of EMC are you using?
I believe this means that linux is using the parallel port for something else.
What config are you using to test with?

Don't know about Linux but I had an issue with a PCI board in the fact that the address was EC00 and not the usual 378. This was a MOSChip board. Maybe this will help.

Hi
EMC version is 2.5.0-pre2

This is part of my HAL file
loadrt probe_parport
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0xdce0"
setp parport.0.reset-time 1000
loadrt stepgen step_type=0,0,0,0

addf parport.0.read base-thread
addf stepgen.make-pulses base-thread
addf parport.0.write base-thread
addf parport.0.reset base-thread

>What config are you using to test with?
I am not sure what you mean, i change the address with stepconf and if EMC starts i will see if signal are there.

[chester88]

stepconf made the config that what I meant.

Have you tried the other addresses listed ?

[albabis]

Yes.
The first two produce the error. The last one does not produce error but not working. there is no signal output. I use oscilloscope to measure it.
