Having trouble loading gpib drivers on Linux

I am trying to load gpib drivers on RedHat Linux 7.3.
The compile step works, but insmod fails. The ib_linux.c module contains an init_module(). This function calls ib_init() which is failing with an error
code -19. What does this mean? How do I work around this error?

Hi,

It is hard to say what could be happening from this. Can you paste the output of the session including the install script and any other commands run. Make sure that you are root while running the install. Also do you see any information in /proc/pci, /proc/ioports, /proc/interrupts that show the board?

Hope that helps out.

Best Regards,
