parport0 OK, parport1 NADA was created by FlashPackets
Running the Port Tester example in "PyVCP Examples" works great for parport0
making changes to the hal for parport1
No Joy . NADA That dang button doesn't magically change it's color to green. Didn't work for 0x0278 either.
I got the address by running
@dmesg -c # to clear the buffer
@shutdown -r now
Then on reboot
@dmesg}|grep parp*
Which gave
Very frustrating! Any ideas on what's required to make this work?
There is a clue from the command line ...
But of course I already know that because the dang button does not work.

Pretty sure that if you
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0xd010 out"
you will have only instantiated hal pins for parport.0
That is your port at 0xd010 will be accessed as parport.0
man hal_parport
for details
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0xd010 out"
you will have only instantiated hal pins for parport.0
That is your port at 0xd010 will be accessed as parport.0
man hal_parport
for details

You're exactly correct.Using parport1's address of0xd010 with parport.0.pin-01-out
did generate some interest so then I tried
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x0378 out 0xd010 out"
loadusr -Wn ptest pyvcp -c ptest ptest.xml
loadrt threads name1=porttest period1=1000000
addf parport.1.read porttest
addf parport.1.write porttest
net pin01 ptest.btn01 parport.1.pin-01-out ptest.led-01
net pin02 ptest.btn02 parport.1.pin-02-out ptest.led-02
net pin11 parport.1.pin-11-in ptest.led-11
net pin12 parport.1.pin-12-in ptest.led-12
start
That also works.
Apparently both ports must be instantiated to do a proper association.
And it's barely been an hour from my initial post and problem solved. Absolutely fabulous forum!
