Folks,
Anyone running on a micro NLX board? I'm particularly interested if Linux
runs on an Intel JN440BX.
Thanks,

I'd suggest a visit to rehat site to check on compatibility. I was
doing some of my own research the other day and remember the promise
controller and the netgear card as being listed as not compatible.
Of course, I may be wrong in my memory, but take a bi of time to
check it out.

Dear all,

Does exist a linux tool for this?

Your (maybe) problem has nothing to do with keyboard. My old 20MHz 386
needs 4 minutes to uncompress the Debian default kernel. It would
improve if you use a smaller custom kernel. If I am not mistaken, you
need to give your machine more time not a keyboard.

Wrong,
If you have the Creative AudioPCI64 you do not need IRQ, I/O nor dma
settings
it is all autodetected and assigned by the PCI chipset.
Linux 2.2.1 has support. but you need to enable 'prompt for new drivers'
within the 2 first menus
of:
'make menuconfig'
if you have the AWE64 PCI,
do a search in www.dejanews.com for more details

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't keyboard necessary to switch the CPU
into protected mode? The Intel 8042 chip (keyboard controller) has the gate A20
and IIRC it is somehow used to switch from real to protected.

I am a newbie to Linux and am finding it impossible to setup my hardware for
X. Can anyone help, please?
I use an ATI All-in-Wonder Pro card with 8MB which runs fine under Windows
NT at 1024*768 on my Dell monitor at a refresh frequency of 75Hz. NT reports
the chip type as ATI 3D RAGE PRO PCI (GT-C2U2) and the DAC as an ATI
Internal DAC with BIOS information of 113-41503-101.
No matter what settings I select in xf86config and Xconfigurator in RedHat
5.1, when I start the X server the monitor reports that the signal is out of
scan range. I have even tried the standard VGA and SVGA modes with the same
results.
Does anyone have any ideas about how I can get this combination to work,
please?

I did an old Slackware installation on a 386 this way. if, for instance, your
first partition is DOS, make a subdirectory structure copy of all of the
packages from your CD (or wherever you are getting this from). This will be
something like c:\linux\d1\ c:\linux\d2\ etc. Note: most auto install programs
expect a certain source (CD) file name structure (names) to work properly.
Your safest bet is to copy the name structure off your distribution CD.
Next, when you boot from your install disk, it will ask you where your
source is. At this point, esacpe to a new console (Alt-F2) and mount the
DOS drive under linux:
mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /mnt/dos
where /dev/hda1 is the first HD, first partition and /mnt/dos is
an empty subdirectory where your DOS content will appear. `ls /mnt/dos/linux`
will show
d1
d2
d3
(assuming my above example setup). Now alt-F1 back to the install program
and when it prompts you for the path to the installation packages,
just enter the mounted path /mnt/dos/linux

If you have Kernel version 2.0.36 (?) or higher, there is a driver for
an ES1370 and ES1371. The Sound Blaster PCI128, should work with one of
them. Try one, if not, try the other, mine is a 1370, but, seems others
have said thier PCI128 was the 1371.

Newbie question.
I installed a second hard drive. Used fdisk to partition, used mkfs to
create the file system. Everything worked great. Fdisk shows it as
/dev/hdb1. I have also entered it in /etc/fstab and it shows up as /dev/hdb1
on bootup.
Question is, how do I get to it? I can't find any command in order to switch
to it to start making directories. Have tried cd /dev/hdb1 - that doesn't
work.
I know it's probably simple but...
Thanks in advance.

Subject: CD Writer Audio Fifo problems
Date: 24 Feb 1999 20:54:07 GMT
Hi folks,
I'm having problems creating an audio CD on a writer that has previously
burned data CDs with no problems. I'm getting fifo underflows - and
occasionally seek errors. I've already made five coasters while trying
to burn this disk (it's a birthday present for someone, otherwise I would
have just given up long ago!). Ugh. Any suggestions at beating this
problem would be really appreciated.
Here's the system details:
P90, 96MB, RedHat 5.2, kernel 2.1.131, SCSI emulation...
IDE image drive
IDE Ricoh 6200A cdwriter - dedicated EIDE controller - I'm running it
at 1x, but it's capable of doing 2x. 1M buffer.
cdrecord 1.6.1
Again - I've created four data disks without any problems using xcdroast
(96e). I don't recall how well its fifo did - but there were never any
errors. When I try to use it audio, it underflows pretty quickly. I
even tried running cdrecord manually - with X shut down... no luck.
cdrecord's log is pretty big, so rather than post it, you can find it
at http://www.upl.cs.wisc.edu/~orn/cdrecordout.html
