Actually, ISA card modems are usually not winmodems (you prolly have just a
10% chance of having a software modem). Try looking into the redhat package
"isapnptools" that will help you set up any plug and play settings for the
card.

Currently, Motif library is not a free package. If you bought RedHat 6.0
with
Motif 2.1, then go ahead and install the Motif library. Otherwise, goto
http://www.lesstif.org or ftp.hungry.com. Download the lesstif, a 1.2 Motif
clone, and install it on your harddrive.
I am very interested to know if you have managed to get the bttv software to
run on your system. Let me know if this solves your problem.

Does the config info above look ok?

I posted earlier about a network adapter. I got the product and the producer
wrong, however.
So my question is. Can I get the ISA SN2000 card to work in a Linux

Yes, I have a username and password, but I shouldn't need those just to
ping their nameserver or to establish a telnet connection.

With $3,000, defintely one can get a 500MHz 64-bit Alpha system and run the
AlphaLinux. The question: will the 500MHz 64-bit Alpha system with the
AlphaLinux run faster than a 366MHz dual celerons with i86Linux?

Pentium processors have an RDTSC instruction (0x0F, 0x31) which
returns a 64 bit CPU cycle value in the EDX:EAX register pair.
This is useful because it counts CPU clocks rather than absolute
time. If you know the clock speed of the processor, the interval
between two readings can easily be converted into time.

Can you ping the Cable modem ????
Start at the basics then work your way forward
Ping yourself
ping both lan cards
ping the cable modem
I would also think that you would need to actually Log on with you username
and Password before any routes can be put in place by your provider !!!!
They probably assign the routes for you automatically on login.

Reply-To: "rush" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
hi,
does anyone have any experience using an Aztechca 56k6 pci modem under red
hat linux 5.1 ?? i've searched the aztechca site for info, e-mailed the
helpdesk (no replies), tried to contact the helpdesk by phone (no answer)
and finally gave it up ..
i can't get the modem to work properly under red hat 5.1 ..
next problem is a mitsubishi 17" ms-530 apricot monitor .. it works
perfectly fine under windows 9x/nt as so it does in red hat 5.1, was it not
that the bpp value doesn't go any higher than 8 bpp .. strange thing, 'cause
in windows i got it to work at 32 bpp; no problems what so ever ..
i'm a newby when it comes to linux, so any help is greatly appriciated ..
greets ..

More info:
In my last message I wrote that I changed my config as recommended above,
but saw no difference in behavior (ping/telnet still didn't work.) However
there *is* a difference in the output of tcpdump.
Output with previous config:
============================

Note that during this output I am not explicly addressing eth1. If may be
just a coincident that the tcpdump has changed, but there you go.
Although there apparently is activity on eth1, the RX seen with ipconfig
are not increment regularly during this activity, though the TX count does
increment. Hmm. This is an example of output:
# /sbin/ipconfig eth1
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:60:97:C8:01:C8

TX packets:3014 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

Any thoughts?
