RANT - Buying a 3458A why is that hard?

Congratulations Dr.Diesel to your new toy.

I just talked to a German distributor of the 3458A and they said they will have plenty of meters left for the next two years to sell.
They are still awaiting a shipment from Keysight in this month.

Well technically speaking ROHS apply to the items sold by the producer ... if some reseller has it on the shelf this doesn't apply.

Bummer, looks like gpib is busted on mainline kernels and not just the rpi stuff, dangit.

The Agilent is working 100% in my Linux Mint 17.3  x64 - (Should be same kernel as on Ubuntu 14.04)

3.19.0-32-generic #37~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 22 09:41:40 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And it's working on my Raspi v1 , with Noobs 1.41 , updated to the raspbian,org kernel  (that won't work on a Raspi v3)

If is working on X86_64 I guess should be some endianes job ... can someone test on some other ARM processor?
