Without a doubt, the cards are conflicting.  Assuming that IRQ 10 isn't
otherwise used in your system, the easiest thing to do is download a setup
program from 3Com for the EtherLink III card.  Once you have this program,
simply boot to DOS and use it to set the card to a NON-PNP configuration.  I
personally like to set second NIC cards to IO=0x280 and IRQ 5 or 11,
depending on which is available.

Also, you may have to disable your COM2 and COM4 ports, as they use IRQ 3 as
well and will conflict with the NE-2000 card.

Next, set the cards up in /etc/modules.conf with the following lines:

#NE-2000
alias eth0 ne
options ne io=0x300

#Etherlink
alias eth1 3c5x9
options 3c5x9 io=0x280

Save the file and reboot and the cards should work.

It's called cable-select.  When installing hard drives in certain Compaq and
HP systems (they're the only ones I've ever seen who use cable-select), if
the cable included with the computer wasn't long enough or didn't have a
connector for a second hard drive, I had to modify the cable that was
included with the drive (remove wire #29 between the master and slave
connectors).  IIRC, the connector that had wire #29 running back to the
motherboard was for the master drive and the other connector was for the
slave drive.  Instead of setting master or slave on the drives, you set both
to cable-select.

(I suspect it was an attempt at PnP for hard drives that ended up not going
over too well, as nobody else used it.)

Subject: USB + Cable TV
Date: Sun, 02 Jul 2000 20:40:46 -0500

Communal Intelligence:

Okay.  Here we go.

Our friends at Hauppage make an external cable tv tuner (WIN-TV USB).
Nice. Small. You take your cable tv signal in, and it outputs a  signal
(I wouldn't think NTSC, the USB port isn't analog) via the USB port.  I
am not aware of the format, but obviously on the windows side of the
house, we have some software that does a continual screen capture, so we
can tune in our favorite channel and watch the Rangers on our
workstation/PC.  A seperate audio cable goes to the input of your sound
card to complete the picture.


Now, I sit here thinking that the Linux kernel has USB support.  Being a
little soft on the internal driver issues, I must ask: "What is now
needed to have Linux TV  via this peripheral"?

It seems that most apps/drivers in this area start with the concept of a
video capture card and write drivers to it, but this is a little
different with the vid feed actually coming in through the USB port.

Is this currently doable??

unsuccessfully.  Using kernel 2.2.14-storm, on my Athlon K7 box. All

Mine 's not exactly an advice:
I have got a similar problem with my VIA AC97 built-in sound device (on an
asus k7v,  mandrake7.0, kernel 2.2.14). I tried the alsa 0.5.8 drivers

Greetings:

When I lpr text files directly to my LaserJet 1100 (without ps or TeX it
first). I will get printouts that are similar to the following:

This is the first line.
                            This is the second line.
                                                             This is the
third line.

I did recall reading a fix for the problem in one of the millions or so
HOWTO files but I can't recall where. Anyone have any suggestions as to how
this problem can be solved?

Live long and prosper.

I have been trying to configure bttv to correctly use my STB Desktop TV T=

card. So far, I have been able to get the thing to work... sort of. The i=

works fine, but I can't get the sound to work. It detects the audio chip
TDA9850, and I think this is correct (having looked at the card... I may =
be
wrong here, since I wasn't 100% sure what I was looking for).

The card was packaged in with my system (a Dell DImension XPS T500, if th=

 video
drivers are compiled as modules for the 2.2.16 kernel, under Red Hat Linu=

I do hope this is the right place to ask... if not, forgive me, and any h=

The printing HOWTO.  Probably:

/usr/doc/HOWTO/Printing-HOWTO.gz

UNIX combines a linefeed and a carriage return into a single character
(the linefeed).  HP printers, at the very least, do not, and require
both.  You thus need a filter that looks for linefeeds and replaces
them with linefeeds and carriage returns together.  Such a filter is
almost always included with Linux.

You know, I've always wondered about this.  Aren't CR and LF direct
crossovers from the tty world?  The only surviving member of which is
UNIX?  So why is it that DOS, OS/2, and Windows all use CR/LF
together, but UNIX only use LF?

Hi,

You have two ways to solve your problem :
        - In the Printer control panel, configure CR  --> CR+LF
        - In Linux you have in /etc/printcap file a referrence to
/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter   (or something like that).
                I've replaced this file with my filter (I send you in attached
file), in which you can configure a lot of things .

Hope this helps

It's an option for generic dma support so maybe, probbly in the kernel docs
somewhere. Yep, use "idex=dma" where x is your interface number, should be
0 for your primary interface.

May be best to rebuild anyway if the kernel or ide patches support your
chipset better (mine couldn't even do dma without them).

sndconfig needs to have the driver compiled as a module, I think. Try 
compiling support directly into the kernel, it should then detect your card 
on bootup. To test, run "cat foo.wav > /dev/dsp"
