Compaq Netflex 3/P network card Date: Thu, 24 Jun 1999 16:23:40 -0500 Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you are running on a dual processor server, you might have the apic mode set incorectly. On Compaq servers, you type ctlA during the start of the config program for advanced mode and set the apic mode to full table mapped mode. I believe this is the mode you need. You are probably set to full table mode. That's the only way I know of to get the high IRQs. Jeff Tony Platt wrote: Is the card actually pluged into the network ???

Hello, I'm trying to install a network card Compaq NETFLEX 3/P(tlan.o module) and here is what I got: 1.ifconfig output: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:5F:D4:6F:84 inet addr:192.168.0.3 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 Interrupt:17 Base address:0xf4f0 2. console output: Jun 14 19:48:45 linux1 kernel: TLAN driver, v1.0, (C) 1997-8 Caldera, Inc.

I know(with a DOS program) that the card is on 5 ... I did tried kernel 2.2.6,7,8,9 with Caldera 2.2,SUSE 6.1 and Redhat 6.1. I tried to put as a parameter in conf.modules: "alias eth0 tlan options tlan io=0xf4f0 irq=5" and I got the same message: "invalid parameter parm_irq" etc... What's strange is that after I load the module..with that strange IRQ...I have conectivity for about 2-3 min...and then nothing...it's really weird. I've changed 3 cards, I've changed the slot on the mainboard,I've enable and disable PNP in BIOS..I did everything!!! So how can I force to use that IRQ(5)? Or am I doing something wrong here?

I am using an older Caldera distribution (1.2/1.3) as a POP3 server. The POP3 server frequently gives the error message "-ERR Received Kiss of Death" for no apparent reason. I telnet to port 110 and login. Whether the user has email or not does not seem to be relevant. The error occurs

It include KDE. The install went without a hitch except for my network setup. Here is what I have: I have a peer to peer network with 2 Win98 boxes and one Linux box. One of the Wintel boxes is hooked to my ISDN line and on it is installed Sygate. Sygate is a software product that lets me share my ISDN connection. It runs as a "service" on the Wintel box and is setup using DHCP protocol. On my other Wintel machine running as the "client", I didn't have to configure anything as the Sygate software automatically assigned IP and took care of DNS. But I need to know what I need to set on the Linux box to get it to work. Right now on the Linux box, if I enter the IP of a web site, it will connect to the site properly. But if I use the domain name, it times out. That tells me the DNS is messed up somewhere. The techs at Sygate told me all I need to set on the Linux box is an unused IP address on my network and the DNS of my ISP. I've done both, but DNS is still not working. I'm pretty much a newbie to this Linux stuff, so if someone could step me through what to look for, that would be really appreciated.
