Hello,
I have a small questions on UltraSparc serial port. Currently I am trying to
hook up a UltraSparc and a x86 machine via null modem. My purpose is to test
the serial port of both machines. I find on PPP-Howto, I need set up 'getty'
on the server. I didn't get anything after I execute
'getty /dev/ttyS0'
What need I do for 'getty'?
On the UltraSPARC, there are two 25-pin connectors, one male and one female.
I am not sure which one is serial port 0, and which one serail port 1. I use
'setserial -g /dev/ttyS0' and 'setserial -g /dev/ttyS1' to query, I find it
is strange the IRQ is :7022432 for both of them. I assume is should use IRQ
3 and 4 for serial port, what's wrong give me such strange results?
One more thing, I really need to monitor and test the serial ports
connection before I jump into testing a driver, could anyone tell me what is
the best way to do that. I am not good at that, I remember it takes me about
two weeks too make my modem work on Linux? :)
Best Regards,

It should work normally, unless the keyboard is programmable or you
have a bug in your code.
The Linux Journal June 1995 (online) has an article on keyboard

I have recently installed RH6.2 Linux on a Dual Celeron 500 box.
All went smoothly except for X.
I am running XFree86-3.3.6-20 under kernel 2.2.14-5.0smp
I downloaded a new XFree86_SVGA from the card manufacturer for my Trident
Blade 3D 8MB card, and used XF86Setup to configure. The configuration
worked OK for the XF86Setup screen, but fails when I issue the 'startx'
command or try runlevel 5.
The following is from /var/log/xdm-error.log
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
xdm error (pid 762): server open failed for :0, giving up
xdm error (pid 722): Display :0 cannot be opened
xdm error (pid 722): Display :0 is being disabled
Any ideas? Has anybody seen this before?
Thanks for the help.

I juso got a CD-RW today and am trying to get it setup. I've compiled
2.3.99 kernel without ide-cdrom and with ide-scsi. The kernel seems to
recognize it fine, cdrecord -scanbus gives good output, xcdroast doesn't
complain, but when I try to mount a regular cd I get:
mount: /dev/scd0 has wrong major or minor wumber
the dev line is:
brw-rw---- 1 root cdrom 11, 0 Mar 16 11:02 /dev/scd0
My cdrom line from /etc/fstab:
/dev/scd0 /cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
Have device nodes changed in 2.3?

Maybe not as much as with a GUI, but the video generator will want to access
system memory to refresh the display. The time it spends doing that is time
that the processor won't be able to access memory. If the video generator
has its own memory, this becomes a non-issue. (You could also interleave
memory accesses between CPU and video; this works OK when memory is
significantly faster than the rest of the system (and is the approach the
Apple II used, to name an example), but now that memory has become the
bottleneck in most systems, sharing memory between the processor and the
video hardware isn't such a hot idea.

Hi,
I just bought a Voodoo3 2000 AGP with 16M of RAM... I've been able to set it
in X (3.3.5 (RedHat 6.1))... however I don't have the 3D acceleration (I think
I need some drivers from somewhere like www.3dfx.com?) and there apear to be
some mistaken colors in my windows when I move/resize/etc them... I've heard
there was a patch for this...
Also, I would like to upgrade to Redhat 6.2 (it has X 4.0 and many more...), I
can download it with no problem but I would like to write a bootable CD for it
and my writer is on my Macintosh (it can create bootable CDs for linux and
windows...), but I don't know what/where to download it and how to put things
together to get the CD to work...
Thanks a lot!

Thank you for your response.
I have gotten it to run tha SVGA driver at 320*300 (Yuk!), but anything higher
locks up the entire system.
Going through the Cards database manually (xf86config coredumps when I try to
let it list the database), Trident Blade3D is:
chipset: Blade3D
Server: SVGA
No Clock Probe
Driver: Trident
I got some good info from http://www.rodsbooks.com/presario/
He has a made his XF86Config downloadable there. And he explains the
gymnastics he went through getting X going.

Sure, just 'bunzip2' (Its just a compression method, like gzip) the patch
in e.g. your /usr/src directory, and then do a
'patch -p1 < ../the_ide_patch' in your /usr/src/linux directory.
If you now do a 'make menuconfig' or whatever you prefer, the UDMA options
should show up...
Good luck,

Subject: BIG IDE-Drive with Kernel 2.0.19
Date: 12 Jul 2000 00:06:00 +0200
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Due to a harddrive crash, I had to remove my old linux installation
running kernel version 2.0.19 to my newly installed IDE 21 GB hard disk.
Now, I'm running into trouble, when booting linux, because the 3rd
partition on the hard disk is not properly detected. There are some
error messages that I would try to read beyond the hard drives
capacity or something like that.
There's no problem with my 2.2.x kernel, but before going to upgrade
my old linux installation from a 2.0.x kernel to a 2.2.x kernel,
I would like to have the old installation runnig as is. There's
hardly a bigger mistake one can make, than "upstoring" an installation,
i.e. upgrade and restore in one task.
(And there's quite a lot to do with the old installation, I'm afraid,
as there are changes in insmod and which binaries else...)
O.k.
I guess, it is a problem with the CHS/LBA conversion with hard disks
bigger than 8 GB. At least, in a revision history of my actual kernel,
there was a hint concerning that. Thus, I suppose, some older
kernels (precisely: older ide drivers) ran into trouble when encountering
hard disks with a capacity bigger than 8 GB. Is this correct?
If so, is there a more actual ide driver patch working with kernel 2.0.19?
Or is there any other solution to my problem?
(Unfortunately I can't remove my old installation to my old disk,
because this would have a similar effect as if I would remove it
to /dev/null. But perhaps the disk media can be reborn in a new
life, serving as halos for saints in the church of emacs :-))
Any help/comment/suggestion will be greatly appreciated!
Please reply to my mail address [EMAIL PROTECTED], as I don't

Big thanks to everyone for your help. Someone emailed me with the
solution to the problem. RH 6.2 seems to have a problem detecting the
Promise Ultra66 controller. RH can be given a hand by giving
this option to the kernel at bootup:
ide2="0x1400"
Where 0x1400 is the address of my Promise Ultra66 controller.
This fixes it, no worries.

I don't recall who I ordered mine from. I think it was close
to the beginning of the year when the whole deCSS thing got
hyped. I paid for my 10x pioneer ~ $100. It reads cdroms at
40x. Mine is IDE; at the time pioneer didn't sell their 10x
in a SCSI version.

The criterion version of Robocop and StarTrek:First Contact

at this point.
