Hi All,
I do believe I solved my freeze up problem. I think
I was "Flooding" my ISA bus.
I replaced the aha-1522 ISA bus scvsi controller
with a PCI bus AdvanSys ABP3925 controller. My
dump time dropped from 54 minutes to 18 minutes.
And no freeze ups either.
I appreciate everyone's tips and support.
Many thanks,

Subject: slow printing rh6.2
I have a rh6.2 lpd server that was running fine until i upgraded a
workstation to rh7.0 with LPRng.
Now the server accepts the client files into the spool dir, and just
lets them sit there for several minutes.
sometimes the lock file has the job nmber and file name and nothing
happens.
lpq status says lp printing and ready, but several files sit there not
getting printed.
the other workstation still on rh6.2 also has this problem.
the server will print right away from the console.
maybe off tpic but help appreciated.

Greetings,
I'm working on a Linux system here running 9 73 Gig Seagate
Cheetas(U160) on a Mylex Acceleraid 352 dual channel card. My intention
was to use 8 drives in a raid 0+1 configuration, and have 1 as an active
spare. This worked out alright I thought. I configured and initialized
the drive array with the Mylex controller as Raid 0+1, but in actual
operation the Mylex raid drivers report:
=====
Logical Drives:
/dev/rd/c0d0: RAID-6, Online, 573358080 blocks
Logical Device Initialized, BIOS Geometry: 255/63
Stripe Size: 64KB, Segment Size: 8KB
Read Cache Disabled, Write Cache Disabled
No Rebuild or Consistency Check in Progress
----
Raid-6!??! The file space when a 'df' is performed shows up properly as the
space I should get with 0+1, which is about 283 Gigs but something isn't
adding up here, any information, ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Has anyone tried to created a Software RAID 0 drive under Redhat Linux 7.0?
I followed the instructions to create the /etc/raidtab file with the
following settings on a Abit KT7-RAID motherboard with 2 Maxtor 20GB 7200RPM
ATA100 hard drives. Kernel was recompile to include the raid modules.
/etc/raidtab

persistent-superblock 1 # set this to 1 if you want autostart,

The kernel has been patch for the highpoint controller and is functioning

individually.
Am I missing something here? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Didn't know HK could play games.
BTW where "is" surround sound support for the Soundblaster?
You pay $20.00 for an OSS version and it still, half ass'd.
The card has only been out for something like 4 years or so and it

Hello,
I got an older PC with a INTEL PR440FX mainboard with a Pentium Pro

I Installed SUSE Linux on it. It seems to work but I can't make the
the integrated network card work.
Is there someone how knows to get this done?
The command: 'cat /proc/net/dev' only shows a header and on the next
line all zero's. According to the manual of SUSE there should be a
line starting with eth0. This line is not showing.

XFree86 just release another version (XFree86-4.0.2) that also
supports ATI's new Radeon card along with some more nice

I've been able to get the TV working on my Rage 128 Pro card
using kernel 2.4.0-test13-pre3, xawtv-3.25, XFree86-4.0.1,
and Gatos ati_xv drivers.
Now if I can just figure out how to get snapshots, record movie

I used Mandrake 7.2 and it was so simple to set up software raid mode
0. I'm running it right now. I also tried RH 7.0 and had no problems
either. Number one you must make a boot partition first outside the
raid device. Second, you must create a / or root directory on the MD0
or raid device then just format it. BTW I used the Reiser file system
instead of the ext2 format. Much faster in raid. Mandrake gave me that
option.

Oh I'm not running it off the drives on the Highpoint controller. I'm
running raid for Win 98 and 2k on that. I have Mandrake on my old
drives on ide 1 and 2 ata 33. You can't run raid off the highpoint
controller AFAIK. I don't think software raid will work either. Let me
know if you get it working. Or, try the drivers for Linux at
www.highpoint-tech.com but they're only for single drives on the HPT
controller. Try it anyway, might work.
