-Before being able to get information from a DAQ card, you first have
-to tell the &comedi; core kernel module which device you have, which
-driver you want to attach to the card, and which run-time options
-you want to give to the driver. This configuration is done by running
-the comedi_config command. (As root of course.)

comedi_config /dev/comedi0 labpc-1200 0x260,3

-discriminate between two or more identical cards in your system.

-If you want to have the board configured in this way every time you
-boot, put the lines above into a start-up script file of your Linux
-system (for example, the
-/etc/rc.d/rc.local file), or for PCMCIA
-boards the appropriate place is the /etc/pcmcia/comedi script.
-For non-PCMCIA boards, you can also arrange to have your driver
-loaded and comedi_config run with by adding a few lines
-to /etc/modules.conf (see the INSTALL file for the comedi
-kernel modules). You can, of course, also run comedi_config
-at a command prompt.

-So now you have your boards configured correctly.

-If it can't, it assumes you are right. Both of these boards
-are well-made, so &comedi; will give an error message if it
-can't find them. The &comedi; kernel module, since it is a part
-of the kernel, prints messages to the kernel logs, which you
-can access through the command dmesg or the file
-/var/log/messages.
