Hi. I'm wondering if Anyone knows how to get this error to go away when
ripping a cd with cdparanoia or cdda2wav: (in debian GNU/linux)
hdc: packet command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: packet command error: error=0xb4
ATAPI device hdc:
Error: Aborted command -- (Sense key=0x0b)
Loss of streaming -- (asc=0xbf, ascq=0x00)
The failed "<NULL>" packet command was:
"be 04 00 00 89 cc 00 00 08 f8 00 00 "
When i had Slackware installed, the error still existed, but did not print
to console. it went to the syslogs, but left my console feeling clean and
dry. *chuckle* Anyway, does anyone know how to make it not report like
that? I know it's not a syslog thing, cuz that happens even when the syslog
daemon isn't running, and when the klogd daemon isn't.
Any suggestions?

Subject: Linux on a Laptop
Date: Fri, 12 May 2000 07:00:08 GMT
I recently installed Linux Mandrake on my Advent
7240 laptop. Problem is that the display only
covers a square about as big as halp the screen.
As a consequence, all the windows are too big for
the screen. I assume this is a video card
problem. My card is listed under Win98 as an SMI
Lynx, but using this driver just crashes Linux
altogether.
I have found that my Video card is actually an
SMI SM910 Graphics Accelerator (4Mb). Is there
any support for this card or any way of solving
my problem ? I would be happy to switch to
another version of Linux if this would solve my
problem.
Thanks.

Subject: UDMA on ASUS K7M
Date: Fri, 12 May 2000 07:52:11 GMT
Hi,
if a new Athlonbox here with ASUS K7M, Athlon 750MHz and a IBM DJNA 20GB
drive. With SuSe 6.4 EIDE-Kernel 2.2.14 or a new compiled 2.2.14 I
wasn't able to get (U)DMA working. I always get the following messages:
kernel: hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
<several times>
kernel: hda: DMA disabled
kernel: ide0: reset: success
I inserted 'hdparm -d1 /dev/hda' and 'hdparm -X66 /dev/hda' in my
/sbin/init.d/boot.local and just after booting and before the ide reset
I can see that the DMA is turned on (and it should be in UDMA 66
according to dmesg).
As I want to use Reiserfs I need the SuSE Kernel sources (I tried to
patch the 2.2.15 Kernel with Reiser AND Hendricks ide patch without
success)
Does anybody have this combination running or has an idea what I could
do?

I have no experience with IDE/SCSI emulation, but it reminds me of a
problem I encountered using my SCSI CRrecorder. When used as ordinary
cdrom drives my Pextor 12/20 CD drives, and my Yamaha 4x4x16 CDR, are
connected at /dev/scd0, and /dev/scd1 respectively. However to record on
the Yamaha I had to select it as /dev/sg5 , where 5 is the drives actual
device ID on the SCSI bus. I got about the same results as you, untill I
figured this out. I don't know how the notion of SCSI device IDs
translate in the world of IDE/SCSI emulation, but this might be worth
looking into.

The difference is that ttyS is sensitive to the DCD pin whereas

to open that device or the corresponding ttyS is blocked, that is,

Where is this IDE patch please?
The IDE driver didn't recognise my disk as UDMA capable so I was getting
about 3.7Mb/sec. Just doing 'hdparm -d1 /dev/hda' increased this to
about 27Mb/sec.

Mine is a Maxtor 7200 RPM as well :( What channel is it on?
Master/slave? You can get model with 'hdparm -i' (I'd be curious to
know).

No special driver needed, but one tweak is useful.
Edit /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/st_options.h, and change to this:
/* The tape driver buffer size in kilobytes. */
#define ST_BUFFER_BLOCKS 128
The default is too small for interoperability with tapes written on
Sun.

Or make sure that the permissions on the mount point for the disk are set
to 755, and mount said disk like so:
mount -t ntfs /dev/hdd4 /mnt/zip -o umask=000
since /usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt says that by
default the files are readable by root and not readable by anyone
else. The umask= should take care of that. I think. HTH,

Date: 12 May 2000 14:39:45 GMT
Hi !
I've been trying (so far unsuccessfully) to convince the Compex LinkPort
pcmcia network card to work with redhat 6.2. Some more detail information
follows below. The card behaves kind of weird:
1. you can ping to this machine, but cannot ping (whatever) from it.
2. ifconfig shows both tx/rx traffic and so does the tx/rx adapter diode.
3. iptraf running at another machine (the same network) shows some packets
but without any apparent relation to the performed activities. It looks
like long, long time nothing, a bucket of packets, and again long
nothing. All these randomly.
4. Unlike for linux session, while running win98 (no problems at all) the
full-duplex diode is on.
A fiend of mine managed to get the bastard (same but non-fast ethernet
card) running, changing pcmcia to pcic in the bios-setup. Unfortunately
this machine seems to have no such a possibility.
Any ideas ?

Hello,
I'm a new Linux user, and I have my hard disk install on a Promise Ultra DMA
66 card.
So I want to install Linux on it but I can't make it.
Thank for your answers by mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It will work just fine using the st0 device. Here is a little script that
I used to set check and set the drive:
#!/bin/sh
mt-st -f /dev/st0 status
mt-st -f /dev/st0 defblksize 0
mt-st -f /dev/st0 defdensity 0x8c
mt-st -f /dev/st0 setdensity 0x8c
mt-st -f /dev/st0 setblk 0
mt-st -f /dev/st0 status
I think mt will work if you don't have mt-st.
You can get additional information on the drive and Linux on the exabyte site.
