This DEFINITELY looks to be a hardware problem...
Hard to say if it's with the CPU, RAM or motherboard tho, since you say it works
at 83MHz
but not at 75 or 100.
If you have access, you might try a different chip in your board, or your chip in
a different board,
or just use PC100 ram.

AFAIK you can set up parameters to pass on the LILO boot line.
or maybe use insmod
something like insmod ne2000.o eth1 io=0x300 irq=5
can't remember the syntax exactly, sorry
also I think you should disable PnP and in the Bios disable PnP for the
irq on both cards and anything else you have which requires fixed IRQ.

The card is detecting 3 cables attached to the SCSI bus - this is not
allowed. I would suggest getting 68-50 pin adapters to connect narrow
devices to the wide scsi internal cable, and disconnect the 50 pin cable.
If you do not have 3 cables connected, then something else is wrong.

Reply-To: Simon Farnsworth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Is it possible to read Acorn ADFS F Format floppies under Linux/x86 2.2?
The disks have slightly unusual layout for a PC's FDC, although the
machines do use standard FDC chips, so the PC should be able to
physically read them. Kernel 2.2 contains support for the ADFS
filesystem, so that is not a problem.
The format in question uses 1024 byte sectors, High density, 10
sectors/track, and interleave between the two sides. I can obtain
further details if needed (from a local reference library), but you will
have to explain what information is needed.

I got the same message, and can`t fix what that means.
But I am not able to partition my harddrive under Linux,

Both recognize the harddrive correctly, but tell me to have problems to

We have a DLT 2000 SCSI tape drive on an Adaptec 2940U SCSI card running
under RedHat 5.2. The drive makes backups and does restores on other
machines with no problems. However, on the RedHat box, the mt command can
rewind and unload the tape but cannot do any tape transport functions,
i.e. fsf, bsf, seek, etc. The drive is recognized by the SCSI BIOS and
the operating system but we cannot figure out why we can't move the tape.
SCSI tape support and generic support is compiled into the kernel we run,
currently 2.2.0-pre5. Any ideas?

Wondering if anyone out there can help me.
I have a Ensoniq SoundScape VIVO PnP card. I'm using Red Hat 5.2
(2.0.36). Everytime I use sndconfig, it says that the device is busy or
the resource is busy. Now, I read somewhere that is you look at
/dev/sndstat, you can figure out what might be going on. Well, under
Audio devices, it says there is a MSS audio codec (AD1845) (DUPLEX).
I've went into the Kernel Configurator in XWindows and removed
everything but the modules for my ethernet card. But the MSS audio
module keeps showing up all the time. Does anybody know how I can kick
the kernel into realizing I have a SoundScape VIVO and not a MSS?
Thanks in advance. I would like responses via e-mail only.

Hi John
This is not my advice, but I read it and it made such good sense to me
that I'm doing it.
Get an ASUS P2B with a PII350. The board will hold up to 768MB RAM.
4 PCI slots, 1 AGP slot, 2 ISA's (I think, I don't pay too much
attention to the ISAs). PII350's are getting pretty cheap.
Anyhow when the PIII's come out you'll be able to upgrade your
processor when you're ready, the RAM ought to hold for a while. I
thought about the ABIT BH6 but the RAM's limited to 384MB. The
way things are going I figure I'll get longer use of the board if I
can add ram and upgrade the processor rather than having 5
PCI slots. I'm too lazy to overclock. It's more work than I
want to do. Whether we want to or not, ultimately we'll
all be using AGP for video (at least the 2D/3D card...the voodoo2's/3s
can use PCI's *g*)
Those are just my choices.
see you

Reply-To: no.spambots.please
it does have half the i/o (ie, it has analog outputs - mostly for monitoring).
the other issues are easily worked around: giving it analog inputs is a simple
matter of frontending the digital card with a good a/d converter. for under
$300 you can get the midiman 'flying cow' which has reasonable ins and outs.
(and its better to have external analog stuff instead of bundling it on the
noisy pci card).
the coax i/o is also worked around. for under $80 you can get a opto<->coax
converter box. or build one yourself - its less than $20 in parts.
its much more important that the card support linux. and this one does. and
not only for 2 channels but for 16 (multitrack). and it does samplerate
conversion too.
its the best linux pro audio 'sound card' out there.
