Hi Evan,

I can't create a /dev node via udev or otherwise. The bizarre thing is that when I replace the problem CPU card/installation with a known "working" installation, the device ids are the typical,  supported "Signal processing controller: Device 1a3e:152c/252c, everything corresponding to your pciids repo.

According to this information, it seems that the PCI ID is not correct. The PCI ID for your cPCI EVG/EVR 300 (0x250c/0x150c) are wrong. Correct value should be 0x252c/0x152c. Perhaps a bit-reversal occurred?

I also encountered similar problem several years before when I failed to use one of my PXI EVR. Later I found that its PCI ID (0x10e6) was wrongly set to a PMC EVR's (0x11e6).

I suggest you to first re-flash the firmware and verify this error is caused by MRF firmware or CPU card.

You can download firmware here or contact Jukka.
