This is a process where a controller can initiate a command on a target (disk), disconnect from the target, and initiate a command on the same or another target. Each command has a tag, and the controller can reference that tag number to the target for later processing. The message simply means that the controller is limiting the number of outstanding (unfinished) commands to 64.

However I cannot get sound happening. sndconfig does not detect any cards on my system, and when I manually specify the type of card it is (ad1816) it asks me to input the proper IRQ, base address, etc,. and no matter what I enter, it always fails, giving an error message that the resource is busy (ad1816.o) How to make this happen?

I then discovered that the / (root) partition is out of space! Root is 150mb on this system. I checked logs and found nothing, then noticed that /proc/kcore is 134+mb. /proc is not a real file system. kcore is the kernel's memory, or something like that. It doesn't actually use space on your disk (nothing in /proc does). What can cause this, and how can I correct? If your / is only 150MB, you should have nothing (except maybe /tmp and a few others) mounted on it. Probably you have /home or something sharing a partition with the root, which is Very Bad. For now, delete files to free space. For later, repartition and make sure no big directories are on /, or that / is big enough to hold all of them. You can use `du' to figure out where all your space is going. -- Eric McCoy [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Mark Post) Subject: Re: Linux-compatible hardware Date: Sun, 29 Oct 2000 03:26:58 GMT On Sun, 29 Oct 2000 07:17:18 +1100, Barry Kirsten [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I desperately want to break from Windows and give Linux a go, but I believe there are hardware incompatibilities.

I am looking to buy a postscript laser printer and found a printer with very nice specifications for a nice price: NEC SuperScript 1800 (about $770 at PCConnection) 1200dpi (not that I can see the difference w/r/t 600...) 17 ppm (manufacturer's claims...) PCL5/6 and PostScript Level 2 (additional ~$110) Duplex (nice feature! lets save some trees...) Claims to be compatible with Windoze/DOS and Mac (with the PS kit and an optional mac interface) Will it work with Linux? It should, right? After all it is PostScript... But will I know the escape sequences to make it print either in duplex or simplex mode? How reliable are NEC printers? (I was going to get an HP 2100 w/PS for about the same price, but no duplexing) Any help will be greatly appreciated!
