DDK with the NI 6602 and example programm gpct_ex8.cpp

[M.Behn]

Hello,

I got from NI the following the Measurement Hardware Driver Development Kit
for the NI 6602 Counter/Timer Card to work with Linux:

http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?cid=11737〈=US

one is the common driver.

The other are the sample programms.

However, every programm except the one which uses the
interupt/dma works(gpct_ex8.cpp).

Here is the errormessages:

Does anyone know what is the problem with it?

I have Redhat-Linux 8.0 and kernel 2.4.18.

Thank you

While Register Level Programming (RLP) is not supported through the standard Applications Engineering support channels, I have provided you with the following suggestions.

Please see the Measurement Hardware Driver Development Kit Register Level Programming Architecture document, which I have provided a link to below, which states that the memory portion of osiBus, used for DMA operations, has not been implemented in the Linux version of osiBus at this point.

Additionally, I would suggest that you post your question to the Driver Development Kit (DDK) forum on our Developer Zone,
in addition to the Counter/Timer and Multifunction DAQ sections, which you have already done.
