Linux HP-IB Driver

Jesse Dougherty — Tue, 30 Sep 2003 10:01:02 GMT

I am trying to locate a driver (download or CD) for an PCI IEEE-488 National Instruments HP-IB interface card (similar to the HP E2078A / 82350B) using Linux via HP 9000/B2000 workstation. If anyone knows of such a driver and where I can obtain it, please reply back.

Thanks

the paragraphe about National Instruments GPIB on linux

there is an ftp link for the site koala.chemie.fu-berlin.de in the directory /pub/linux/LINUX-LAB/IEEE488.

Is this what you are after ?

I don't know whether is too late, but check linux-gpib:

http://linux-gpib.sourceforge.net/

I'm pretty sure that this package is not abandoned; actually, it's going through intense development.
