Mesaflash is not able to find 5i25

Not entirely sure if this is the correct category of the forum for this question, but here goes:I've just done a completely fresh install of LinuxCNC and I'm running into a few issues — some related to EtherCAT, but also with.I'm trying to usewith a 5i25 board. I installed it and ran the following command:But I get this error:The 5i25 itself isn't broken — I’ve tested it on another PC and it works fine.When I run, I can see the board:It feels like something went wrong during the software installation. Has anyone seen this before or know what might be wrong?

Memory at d1000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=64K]

is suspicious, Sometimes this is BIOS option related.

I have a small HP ProDesk 400 G3 SFF. From your suggestion i have looked at both devices (same pc type) bios settings, as of now nothing sticks out yet.

Does LinuxCNC find the card?

He did use sudo, I expect this is a BIOS issue, and it appears that the
hm2_pci driver works around this with this:

    // NOTE: this enables the board's BARs -- this fixes the Arty bug
    if (rtapi_pci_enable_device(dev)) {
        LL_PRINT("skipping AnyIO board at %s, failed to enable PCI device\n", rtapi_pci_name(dev));
        return failed_errno = -ENODEV;

But I don't see any equivalent code in mesaflash (nor do I know the equivalent
of rtapi_pci_enable_device with the PCI library that mesaflash uses, but I can take a look.)

 

I will dig more into tonight and see if i can find something from the bios. The only thing i can think of is that linuxcnc was installed with secure boot.

Properply end up doing a fresh start with linuxcnc.

I will update on this, if i find something.

This seems to be an issue that seems to happen with HP boxes, add in cards seem to be disabled. This is just not related to Linuxcnc cards. Users have had issues with PCIe LPT cards and a month or so ago when doing a google search related to this it pops up in HP forums with no resolution (not just the above mentioned add in cards). (sorry I didn't bookmark the threads I found)

Okay, so I still don’t know exactly what the issue was. I checked the BIOS and compared it with another PC, but nothing stood out. After a while, I decided to just reinstall LinuxCNC 2.9.4 — and this time, it worked.
It might be because I installed other software in a different order; this time, I set up EtherCAT and everything else right away. I also removed the annoyingpackage, which could have been the culprit as well.
