The Digiboard Acceleport XEM is recognized by the hardware (Foxconn motherboard w 3Ghz Pentium IV) but the software refuses to compile. I’ve opened a support request with Digi but in the mean time I figure I’d see if anyone here had already dealt with and solved this issue.
I first tried the ./setup from the CD presenting me with the graphical install but that failed. I next tried the source code from the CD but that failed as well. I then went to Digi’s FTP site downloading v 1.57-1 hoping that would compile but it fails also.
Here’s the failed “make install” from epca-1.57-1 which is the latest available from their web site. I’m not a C programmer so even though it’s reporting errors on line 716 (next block followed by failed compile. I don’t know if it’s actually the cause of the compile failure.
