gEDA-user: Problems with footprints



Hi there.

I'm new to the geda-suite. I have made my first project; but I'm stuck
with following problem. In gschem I have a capacitor C6 82nF with
footprint BRE300. 

I gets the following output from gsch2pcb:
[chris@laptop Riaa pre-amp]$ gsch2pcb projekt
Warning: argument passing may have been confused by
         a comma in a component value:
         Check _C6 BRE300 _82nF
         Maybe just use a space instead of a comma?
_C6: can't find PCB element for footprint BRE300 (value=_82nF)
Warning: argument passing may have been confused by

Warning: argument passing may have been confused by
         a comma in a component value:

_C1: can't find PCB element for footprint BRE300 (value=_1uF)
0 file elements and 16 m4 elements added to board.pcb.
4 not found elements added to board.pcb.


When I try to open board.pcb in pcb I gets the following error:

1: ERROR parsing file '/home/chris/gaf/Riaa pre-amp/board.pcb'
    line:        79
    description: 'syntax error'

Line 79-80 of board.pcb are as follows:
PKG_RECTANGULAR2N(BRE300, C6, 82nF,  600, 150)
PKG_RECTANGULAR2N(BRE300, C5, 1uF,  600, 150)

I have no idea about what went wrong. I canĀ“t see what the value of the
component could influence the design. My value is 82nF without any
comma. Are the value not for silkscreen print only?

Any ideas welcome

Best whishes
