I have a sb32awe.
sndconfig set it up in 5.1 no problem
but in 5.2 it couldn't do it.
It must be broken.
why did they break a working thing.

Please tell me where?
I tried pnpdump --config
It gave incorrent settings, noit the ones which the soundcard had been
configured to with wincrap. (ie not irq 10 wrong address) as compter boots
it displys a message which says sound card is using irq 10.

I have the 17.2 GB Maxtor partitioned as follows:
c: 2 GB (DOS & OS2 Warp maintenance - FAT)
d: 200 MB (Warp - HPFS)
e: 4 GB (Warp data - HPFS)
/dev/hda7 4 GB (Linux 2.0.36 - ext2)
/dev/hda8 6.8 GB (Linux data - ext2)
/dev/hda9 128 MB (Linux swap)
I use System Commander to boot multiple DOS setups, OS2, and Linux.
Linux, OS2 Warp, and System Commander all support these large drives.
Warp proved to be difficult to migrate from another drive, but migrating
Linux was trivial and trouble free. Everything has been working fine.
If this works for a 17.2 GB drive it will work for smaller drives as
well.

Hi folks:
I used to run some dual PPro boxes and they'd served me well.
Now I decide to "upgrade" to a pair of PII333's on a Tyan Thunder II
(S1696, the monster-dual-CPU-with-sound-and-with-SCSI board). This
move has been nothing but trouble since. First, the dual on-board UW
SCSI refused to work. [I am now using my original AHA-2940 adapter.]
Then after I disabled it, I cannot install from CD-ROM-- every time it
hangs when the RH 5.1 installer reaches the SCSI-scanning stage. NOW
I get random garbage spewed to the printer some time after each reboot
of the machine. I realise that this may just be a toasted board, but
can someone tell me if there is something that I can try other than a
BIOS update, which I already did?
Details of box: Dual PII/333, 256MB of ECC SDRAM DIMM's, RHL
4.2, kernel version 2.2.1 (the problem does not seem to happen with
kerne; 2.1.129, the reason why I posted to the kernel list); AHA2940
with two 4G UW-SCSI drives, a plextor CD-ROM, a panasonic CD-R, and a
640MB SCSI MO drive. I am also using a logitech trackball, but not
the PS/2 kind. Printing from another machine, with the same cables,
seem to do fine.

--config tells it to use what it determines to be safe settings. You'll
need to manually edit your /etc/isapnp.conf I've included mine for you.
Also, if your BIOS has an option for PNP operating system, turn it off
or it will screw with your linux installation

What is the story on IRQ2 and IRQ9, i.e. what are the consequences
of the cascading? Can I use neither of these for a device?
One or the other but not bothfor different devices?
Only a specific one?

My sndconfig does the same thing, but it's not because sndconfig is messed
up. I can't even insmod sb or modprobe -a \* because "device or resource

Although you can network the two machines via a serial
connection it's not likely to be very satisfactory. With the
price of NIC's (even PCMCIA NIC's for the laptop) and hubs
as low as it is now you really ought to consider even cheap
10base-T ethernet over any serial networking.
No problem with the dual-boot. Most, if not all linux
distributions come with FIPS, which can non-destructively
repartition your Windows drive. Install lilo with linux and
you're ready to rock.

Let me know if you ever get it to work reliably. I've gone through 8
motherboards now and it seems like I never get the same results twice.
I now have three Tyan boards. One boots fine, the other two go into
infinite loops rebooting. I used to get your error too and someone told
me to use fdisk to mark the first partition as bootable and that seemed
to fix the problem...but now, I am back to square one again.
One board was working fine until I put the cover back on. I am about to
go insane trying to get this crap to work.

Date: Wed, 03 Feb 1999 15:54:53 GMT
I recently upgraded to the 2.2.1 kernel and ran into some problems. I have a
real SB Vibra16 PnP, and mine does the same exact thing. It should be IRQ 5,
with all the other stuff set to defaults. I don't think any of my other
cards could have taken that IRQ. My modem is an USR 56k with the jumpers set
to Com 4 If I remember correctly. It works fine though. Other than that
there's just my video and scanner cards. Linux has always ignored the SCSI
scanner card before because I didn't bother to set it up. The sndconfig
program that comes with Redhat detects my card fine, but it can't "modprobe
-a sound". If I "insmod sb" or "modprobe -a \*" I get an error message like
"sb.o: init_module: Device or Resource busy.". The soundcore.o and sound.o
modules load just fine. I'm not sure how to fix this, but ANY solutions are
welcome!

Date: Thu, 04 Feb 1999 08:17:12 -0800
Hello,
I am using Linux 2.0.34-0.6 from REDHAT 5.1
I have 2 SCSI hardrives with SunOS filesystems and
would like to read them. I can see them on the SCSI
chain but get the following error when I try to mount any
of them.
mount -t ufs /dev/sda1 /mnt/sun1
mount -t ufs /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sun2
same error for both.
ufs_read_super: can't grok byteswapped fs on dev */1
mount : wrong fs type, bad option, bad super block on /dev/sda*
I have configured the kernel to support ufs type file systems with
Sun disklabels
and I have turn BSDfree off to avoid confusions.
I tried also fdisk on these devices. fdisk seems to see these are
block devices and I think is seeing multiple partitions, but can not
recognize the filesystem.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

No, you most likely are /not/ loosing your memory (your mind, maybe
:-). What is happening is the system is using this memory as a cache
and buffering all your data into memory, therefore allowing faster use
of memory vs. disk.
When binaries require more memory, the mm (memory manager) will allocate
appropriate space and decrease the buffers and cache size to accomodate
the increased memory need, and/or swap what it doesn't immediately need
or have resources therefor.

I'm successfully using a 4416S. I am told SCSI is the more reliable of the
two - that seem to be the general view. Mind, they say a SCSI hard disc is
best; yet my EIDE Maxtor works fine. Perhaps the gap between SCSI and EIDE
in performance terms for everyday users is negligible. Buying an EIDE would
mean you don't need to buy a SCSI card - assuming you don't have one.

ok.. update time... I just did a compile on the 2.2.1 kernel...
This depends on one thing... which ensonique chip is on your board-
the 1370 or 1371... MY PCI128 has the 1370 on it... ymmv.. in the
kernel configurator (I used menuconfig from the terminal) enable sound
support (as a module... it seems to choke when built in... again, your
milage may vary) and then choose 137x for the ensonique board...
again, depends on which chip you have... again, compile as a module...
for ease and convenience, I have the kernel load all my modules at
boot time, and I remove them manually if I need to (haven't yet)...
all I can say is that personally, this has worked far better than
anything I ever did under 2.0.36 or before... and it seems to be
better than the OSS program... no crackling noises at boot time...
