Can you post the exact line you added to make this work? Then we will have all the information to go along with this card.
Thanks

Hi Eric, Attached is the PCIDEV.TBL you need to copy to OS/2/Boot. If you look at the last lines, you will see what I added for my PCIParllel card.

Hope this helps, klipp

FYI:
I've just uploaded to Hobbes an updated pcidevs.txt (updated to 2014-03-01). It's in /incoming, now, but it should replace the one from 2013-10-28.
Of course, this won't help drivers recognize hardware, but it should help us identify what new hardware we have, so that we may build the correct entries elsewhere or at least see what the system sees.
Cheers/2
Lewis Rosenthal:
...also uploaded to Hobbes incoming is a tweaked PRINT01.SYS which should see IRQs as high as 48. Andy just built it form the DDK sources. This should obviate the need for Virtual Wire Mode under ACPI. Please test and report. I have it in a machine with a PCIe 1x parallel card (Oxford chipset), ACPI mode 2, set for IRQ 19. The card is recognized by the driver and prints as expected (I have not tested speed or anything else, just output to an HP LaserJet 4000 over an HP-branded IEEE-1284 bidi cable).
Cheers
R.M. Klippstein:
Hi Lewis, you're Print01.sys works fine on a Asus M4A88TD with four processors (AMD), no problems with SMP and activating the processors. Thanks for the efforts involved in upgrading Print01.sys ---- a much needed enhancement for eCS and OS/2.
