Hey ho.

What driver should I choose for this card?  I looked at the D-Link site,
and they had a driver for Linux 1.2.13, but I'm running 2.2.10.  That, and
I couldn't easily install it without first downloading a DOS diskette
(bleh) and extracting it, as far as I could tell.  With some effort, I
could do this.  However, I was hoping that one of the existing drivers for
2.2.10 might work for this card.

Has anyone else gotten this card to work on a Linux 2.2 or 2.0 kernel?  

Please send a courtesy copy of any replies, as my access to the newsgroups
is temporarily difficult.

Hi,

I have a problem to install my PCI net-card. It has a 89c940 chip (i think it's
NE2000-compatible). 
My Kernel says:
=========
ne2k-pci.c:v0.99L 2/7/98 D. Becker/P. Gortmaker
http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/ne2k-pci.html
  WARNING: The PCI BIOS assigned this PCI NE2k card to IRQ 0, which is unlikely to
work!.
 You should use the PCI BIOS setup to assign a valid IRQ line.
ne2k-pci.c: PCI NE2000 clone 'Winbond 89C940' at I/O 0xb800, IRQ 0.
eth0: PCI NE2000 found at 0xb800, IRQ 0, 00:00:E8:59:C7:06.
=========
Should I change the IRQ for this card in the BIOS? But how?
Can you help me please?

Thanks, 
        Konstantin

I do not have my LS120 setup for booting (I also have a std floppy
drive).  
But I am able to try your test.  

dd if=boot.img of=/dev/hdc bs=1440
1024+0 records in
1024+0 records out

I am using RH 6.0 updated to the 2.2.10 kernel.


If you are using the 2.0.34 kernel, perhaps you should update to 2.0.35
or later.

Have you tried a different floppy diskette?

Does the drive work with LS-120 media?

And finally, as you said, it was flaky under Windows.  It could simply
be a broken drive.

I think I need more info to help you...
Try to get a log of the scsi initialization messages from
bootup. 'dmesg' might help.
Is your SCSI (aic7xxx.o) built into the kernel, or a module?
So you have SCSI disk support enabled or insmod'ed?

The sweet spot for me was 128 Meg.  I have 25Megs ni buffers typically, and another
5 meg free.  I'd bet 96 Meg would be almost as good as 128, but I don't want to use
both memroy slots on my puny motherboard, so I just bought a single 128 Meg stick.

This is pincushioning.  Tweaking the size/position values in X's mode
lines can sometimes help.  Most monitors have a control to compensate.
I'd just use it and be rid of the problem.

What makes you think NT is really running it at 85Hz?  Depending on the
card, the driver, and whatever monitor capabilities NT can detect, you
may be getting something completely different.

For instance, on a Win95 box, I can set a Diamond Stealth 3D-2000 card
to 1280x1024x16 @ 72Hz.  And Windows claims that's what it's giving.
But when I check the actual frequency (the monitor has a setup screen
where I can view that), I find that the card is actually generating an
87Hz interlaced signal.

XFree86, on the other hand, properly determined that this resolution/
color/refresh requires a dot-clock beyond the chipset's capabilities
and set itself to 60Hz, which worked.

In other words, Microsoft operating systems are known to lie when
queried about hardware settings.  I wouldn't trust them.

If you want it to be scsi1, you have to make sure that your current

Subject: Can 16450 UART prevent comm. w/ext. modem?
Date: 11 Aug 1999 18:35:18 GMT


I am trying to connect an external USR 56K sportster and am confident
that there are no address and interrupt conflicts but I am still
unable to communicate with it.  I have an old PC w/16450 UARTs...could
this prevent me from being able to issue a simple AT cmd?  I am seeing
ints from the modem when I run kermit and try to talk to it.  I do not
see any text or response from the modem though.

I have no problems getting my internal 14.4 working...that has its own
16550A UART.  I would have thought that the slow UARTs would only pose
a problem when running a high speeds.  I've tried setting the speed in
kermit to as low as 9600 and the serial port speed as low as 1200.

Before I go out and buy a new IO card w/fast UARTs, I want to know
that this problem may be caused by the UART.  I can run a mouse off
the serial port w/o problems so it's not totally useless.

Works fine with the ljet4 device in Ghostscript.  You'll have to
figure out what if any printer setup stuff Debian has.  Using LPRng

SuSE 6.1 distribution. Can only mount CDROM disk 1 and 2, but cannot

4 once, but after a short time the system errors. I have exchanged the

ide0 (slave) to ide1 (master) with the same results. I have also mounted
various disks from other operating systems without any problems.

Questions: Is this a hardware problem? If so why can I mount disk 1 & 2

I need to connect about 60 printers which are scattered around on misc.
terminal / print servers, such as Bay Networks devices, HP JetDirect cards,
etc.

I know that I can spool these printers via /etc/printcap, but I would like
to know if I can connect them as /dev files? I am able to do this on a Data
General system using a card called a VTC (Virtual Terminal Controller). Does
anyone know of a similar method for Linux? Either a hardware or software
solution would be welcome.

The reason is that we have legacy software which is written in such a way
that spooled printing can't be used - only directly connected devices. I
think this was a security precaution to do with printing cheques.

Any advice would be appreciated.

/dev/dsp has to be configured with the proper ioctls
before it will play your file (sample rate, primarily).
It has a default sample rate, and your file appears to be
at twice that rate.  So you need to downsample your WAV file, 
or write a little C program to do the proper ioctls before
piping the data...  Look at /usr/include/linux/soundcard.h
for the ioctls.

Hmm.. Come to think of it, the default
config (on open) of the audio devices
might make a nice /proc/sys interface.  What do you think?
Then you could do this all with echo and cat...

kmedia is looking at the file header and sending the correct
setup ioctl's to /dev/dsp before piping samples into it.
You aren't.

You got lucky.. Your .au file happened to be the default
8-bit u-law encoded audio samples.
