Here are detailed instructions for general Debian network setup:
wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration#Con...e_interface_manually

You can also use the GUI (little icecream bar looking icon on the top right of the screen)

Also tommylights IP address notes are correct, the 7I96 card is at 10.10.10.10 so the host has to be at a different address (but in the same 10.10.10.X subnet)

LMAO, I would be so annoyed right now if it wasn't for the fact that it just started right up without any errors.
Just needed to change that ip address. I had thought network manager and connections were different.

Sweet, just need to setup the HAL for proma and relay.

Yeesh. I need to modify the Toma plasma setup to work with my mesa board. Is this a process of changing directories and files? i.e. put the Toma files into my 7i96 directory, keeping my .ini and .hal from the 7i96 and updating them with the information from the Toma files?

You just need to replace the paraport pins to mesa pins in the toma files, example :

net StepX stepgen.0.step => parport.0.pin-02-out
net DirX stepgen.0.dir => parport.0.pin-03-out

to

hm2_7i96.0.stepgen.07.xxxxxxxx <===== ??? do not know what goes here, PCW, helppppp ! :)

Also the inputs and outputs should be changed accordingly.

A different card, but this example for a 7i76e should point you in the right direction to configure the stepgens

So I'll need to change pins to:
hm2/hm2_7i96.0. IO Pin 000 (01-01[TB 1,2,3 then pin?]): IO Port <(denote function?)
I.E.
hm2/hm2_7i96.0. IO Pin 33 (03-14): net estop-ext

OR
net estop-ext <= hm2_7i96.0.gpio.033.in

I may be confusing the .hal/.ini setup; but I think I'm onto something
