I have no parallel port on motherboard and i add it to PCI slot. address is 0x2030.
But when i set it for input
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x2030 in"
i get error message
pin or parameter ' parport.0.reset-time ' not set
But when i set it for input
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x2030 in"

Hi
If you have no parport you probably want the port set to
loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x2030 out"
That would follow from the hal file error which suggests you are trying to run stepper motors from the port

That is probably just the first mention of the parport in the HAL file, and the underlying problem is that the driver has not found the card, and has not loaded.
If you open a terminal console window and start Linuxcnc from there (the command is "linuxcnc") then you may get some more feedback.
After LinuxCNC fails and exists, type "dmesg" and look at the last 20-30 lines for clues as to what the problem might be .
