I would have to agree, although I have tried recompiling the kernel and
have not had any luck. I tried the card in windows and it worked okay,
although every two mins or so, windows "locked" up for about 3 secs and
then resumed. (i.e. mouse, screen refresh, everything would just hang)
It may be my card. I also have a 3Com card, and although expensive they
seem to run faster and cleaner.
If anyone has got there Linksys card to work (the one with wake up on LAN
support) please write me with some info. Also, although I am doing this
backwards, has anyone networked linux through windows running a proxy
server?

Ok, In the Dos/Win world I am pretty informed on Soundcards. But My
Sound Bastard Live is not supported very well In Linux so I want to add
a 2nd card that IS supported well. My wishlist ?
-Cheap.
-Easy to configure.
-Easy to find (hopefull at Fry's or the Like)
- Good S/N ratio for playing MP3 files (my main use)
- If it has hardware wavetable then all the better. I have a midi
keyboard and would love to be able to sequence in Linux if there are any
decent sequencers available.
- Joystick support.
Any info and I would be -like- very greatfull.
DP !

Suse, Mandrake, Debian, Slackware and many more distributions of Linux.
I personally like Suse and have it as my only OS now and it was fairly
easy to setup. I know Debian is the one with the most packages
included. Mandrake is Redhat optimized for the Pentium processor. Look
around because many of the distributions do not get as much press as
Redhat and Caldera but are just as good once properly setup.

Don't hold your breath, my friend. You'll never get a 56k connection
between two store-bought V.90 modems. The V.90 standard REQUIRES that one
end of the connection be a totally digital connection. All the modems you
buy in the store are analog connections. ISPs and other companies providing
56k access have special digital devices connecting directly into the PSTN,
without any coversion to analog.
Some ISDN adapters are capable of supporting the digital end of a V.90
connection. With the proper configuration from your ISDN service provider,
it can accept calls from regular telephones, and you can create 56k
connections.

Hello all..
looking to see if anyone have successfully used framebuffers to bring up
an decent X session on a motherboard with internal chipset Intel 830?
I'm geting an error when trying to start X:
"Fatal server error: xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open /dev/fb0current (no
such device) "
when there is a symbolic link /dev/fb0current pointing to /dev/fb0
( e.g. /dev/fb0current -> /dev/fb0 )
Anyone knows some work around? I thought this would be a work around
from the non X server issue for this graphics chip on the motherboard.
Any suggestions?

Why don't you use the excellent software raid tools that come with
Linux? You can setup a raid1 (raid1 is mirroring; raid0 is striping)
device almost on the fly, and without the need for special hardware,
using IDE drives, or even mixing IDE with SCSI (i.e. what I did :):):)).
For more info see the man pages for mdcreate, mdadd, mdrun and mdstop,
as well as the Software-Raid-mini-HOWTO.

Virtual 16550 UART = software modem! Stay away!
These things don't even work under DOS.. no chance of it ever working in
Linux.
Even if you are running Windows, it's a bad idea. Impossible to stay
connected more than 5 minutes. Try doing about anything else with your
processor like playing music or even sending email, it drops the
connection.

I am trying Linux for the first time and am having trouble cofiguring the
video card and network card in my laptop. It is a Dell Latitude XPICD
laptop. The "built-in" video card is a neomagic. It was listed in the
choices provided by the install. The laptop is docked with a Dell Ultrascan
1000hs trinitron monitor. When I attempt to configure the Xwindows driver
the monitor blinks out and will not come back on. I remove the laptop from
the dock and open and the screen on the laptop, it looks like a serious case
of horizontal hold problem.
The second problem is with my NIC. It is a PCMCIA 3com 3c574-tx card. I
can not get a provided driver(in the list) to work with the card. The card
in the docking station works fine. It is a 3com 3c509.
I am very familiar with NT, and am trying Linux to see what is on the other
side of the fence. Please help.....

Subject: ABit BH-6 and Mylex Acelleraid 150 Problem
Date: Thu, 16 Sep 1999 21:10:19 -0400
Hey all...
This isn't particularly a Linux issue(this is being crosspoted to
linux.hardware), as it seems to be an issue with the Abit's BIOS, but
here goes hoping someone has come across this one before:
If I put the Mylex card into ANY(ok, either of the two I have) BH-6
board, the mobo hangs right after the Award BIOS PnP and TM message,
right before it normally lists IDE devices. Thinking there was a
conflict, or a later BIOS would help, I stripped ALL boards out of the
target box, down to an AGP video card(generic ATI w/2M) and nothing
else. The target box normally has 3 IDE HDs, a SCSI card and tape
backup, IDE cd-rom, 10/100 nic in it as well, but were removed to ensure
the PS wasn't causing the problem.
Even tried swapping out the video card(to a PCI S3V card), tried the
Mylex in EVERY PCI slot...with all other cards removed, drives unplugged
etc etc...same thing. Flashed to the latest BIOS for the board(Rev 1.0,
BIOS dated 7/13/99 I believe, BHLN), no difference other than now the
board doesnt completely lock up-beforehand tapping the numlock or caps
lock key didnt light the leds, now they do, but the box still hangs in
the same location.
Put it into a Windows system, same exact thing with an older
BIOS..flashed THAT bios as well, same problem.
However, upon putting the card in my workstation(ABit BP6 PPGA, dual
Celeron 366, not overclocked), lo and behold, no hang, the card works
and has my RAID array hanging off of it happily...aside from the fact I
dont WANT the RAID on my workstation, I want it on my NFS box!!
Anyone successfully have a Mylex AcelleRAID 150 working with a BH6 MB or
have any clues here? I have a call in with ABit, and am HOPING to get
some response there..I've recommended their boards to friends in the
past a lot, but this...I need resolved. Thanks in advance if anyone has
any ideas, please CC me if possible at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Date: Fri, 17 Sep 1999 01:56:28 GMT
I try to prepare a bootable CD ROM and it is not very sucessfully in my
computer which has a Yamaha CDRW 4416 (/dev/hdc) and a
Panasonic CR-588 (/dev/hdc) drives. I don't have any problem to boot RedHat
6.0 CD of Linux Mall. But it seems that my computer doesn't like the CD it
burnes by itself.
1. I copy the RedHat 6.0 of Linux Mall into /usr/local/redhat6.0 and burn a
CD from the harddisk using the following commands:
run 'mkisofs -R -b images/boot.img -c images/boot.cat -o /tmp/redhat.iso
/usr/local/redhat6.0' and
run 'cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,0 /tmp/redhat.iso'
The Yamaha CDRW does not see the burned CD and boots failure. If I put
the burn CD into my other computer which has only 1 CDROM drive. It is
fine.
2. Only copy the images directory from RedHat 6.0 into my harddisk and burn
a CD with the above 2 commands. It boots OK with the burned CD.
3. Direct copy the RedHat 6.0 into CD. Sometimes it boots OK, sometime it
does not.
Is it a hardware problem? Or it is related to two CD ROM drives in 1
computer?
Thanks,
Edmond
