isapnp - Configure ISA Plug-and-Play devices.
In version 1.16 and later of isapnptools, isapnp
checks resources are available as the devices are configured.
If there is a conflict, a diagnostic message is given, and
the program can be made to abort if required by placing the
appropriate settings in the configuration file.
In version 1.18 and later of isapnptools, conffile
may be '-', meaning read the configuration file from stdin.
isapnp will run with real-time scheduling if possible to achieve
the required IO timings. This will lock out all normal programs while
it executes. In version 1.19 and later of isapnptools,
isapnp will only run in this mode for 5 seconds, it then reverts
to standard scheduling like any other program. Previous versions
should only be run from a standard console as ^C will kill it from
there. If you run the command remotely (and X counts as remote), you
will not be able to kill it as no other programs can run.
If an error occurs later, a message is printed to standard error in
the form:
file:lineno -- Warning/Fatal - message
where
The program has run out of memory and will abort. Fit more memory, or add more swap space. This is extremely unlikely as isapnp is normally run during boot up, when there are no users logged on.
You had an (ISOLATE..) after a previous occurance of (ISOLATE..) or (CSN..). The program will rescan for boards. You should fix your script to only scan for boards once, by removing one of the above statements.
Your configuration file attempted to configure a board to use IRQ2. This is invalid according to the clarifications to the PnP ISA spec v1.0a, and should be changed to use IRQ9, which has been done. You should change your configuration file to use IRQ9 in the first place.
Your configuration file has attempted to program a board to use an IRQ line which is already used by something else. The see ... bit tells you where the IRQ line was first flagged as being in use. Change the script to use a different IRQ line, or fix the information being provided if the line really isn't already used.
Your configuration file has attempted to program a board to use IO ports which are already used by something else. The see ... bit tells you where the ports were first flagged as being in use. Change the script to use different ports, or fix the information being provided if the ports really aren't already used.
Your configuration file has attempted to carry out an IO range check on a device which has already been configured and activated. You must either not attempt the check, or deactivate the device before the check. This error is a sign that you are on shakey ground. If the device is already activated, and you are running isapnp for the first time, then some other program has already activated the device (may be the BIOS, or some of the cleverer kernel drivers). You probably shouldn't be attempting to configure the device at all. There could already be drivers accessing the card.
The IO range check failed. This is a sign that there is a conflict of port addresses with some other device. Reassign the IO ports for this device (or the other one if you know what is is and how to do it).
Your configuration file has attempted to program a board to use a DMA line which is already used by something else. The see ... bit tells you where the DMA line was first flagged as being in use. Change the script to use a different DMA line, or fix the information being provided if the line really isn't already used.
Your configuration file has attempted to program a board to use memory addresses which are already used by something else. The see ... bit tells you where the addresses were first flagged as being in use. Change the script to use different addresses, or fix the information being provided if the addresses really aren't already used.
The following messages may also occur:
The program has been running for more than 5 seconds, so something is probably wrong. Rather than lock up your machine, it is switching out of real-time mode so that other programs can run again. The program will now probably run slower. If this message occurs, you may want to kill isapnp.
The program has been running for more than 5 seconds, but the attempt to leave real-time mode failed (impossible !), so there will be a further 5 second delay, then if it hasn't finished by then the program will kill itself.
The above happened (even though it's impossible !). The program is killing itself.
You have provided an invalid READPORT address - fix it.
You have not specified a READPORT, and not done an (ISOLATE..) which would find one, so the program cannot proceed. Either specify a READPORT or carry out an (ISOLATE..).
The READPORT is already in use. Choose another.
The status bit to signal the resource data was valid never got set, this could be due to a conflict with your choice of READPORT address, try another.
Reading back the logical device selection register failed. It appears some boards do this if you access the devices in the wrong order. Do like it says, and add (VERIFYLD N) to the top of your script and see if the board configures ok.
You've tried to poke a value outside the range 0..255. Fix your script.
You've got a syntax error somewhere. If the word is a valid command, you've probably got braces not matching. Fix your script.
You are not superuser. Only superuser has the required permissions to run isapnp.
Impossible ! If it happens, the program will to run in real-time mode.
If you think you have found one not mentioned in the latest version, please send a report to isapnp@roestock.demon.co.uk.
