Hi,
Anybody got a Teles 16.3c ISA PnP ISDN card working with
Linux kernel 2.0.36??
I've compiled the ISDN subsystem as a module...
HiSax drivers as modules... here's the relevant section in
the .config file...
CONFIG_ISDN=m
CONFIG_ISDN_PPP=y
CONFIG_ISDN_PPP_VJ=y
CONFIG_ISDN_MPP=y
CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_LOOP=m
CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_HISAX=m
CONFIG_HISAX_EURO=y
CONFIG_HISAX_16_0=y
CONFIG_HISAX_16_3=y
CONFIG_HISAX_TELES3C=y
CONFIG_HISAX_TELESPCI=y
CONFIG_HISAX_S0BOX=y
Booted with this kernel... got isapnp to load the following isapnp.conf..
(CONFIGURE TAG2620/209717183 (LD 0
(IO 0 (SIZE 2) (BASE 0x0300))
(INT 0 (IRQ 10 (MODE +E)))
(NAME "TAG2620/209717183[0]{TELES.S0/16.3c Plug&Play}")
(ACT Y)
))
ran isapnp and got ...
Board 1 has Identity 76 04 03 02 01 00 20 32 0d: CIR2000 Serial No 67305985 [checksum
76]
Board 2 has Identity bd 0c 80 07 bf 20 26 27 50: TAG2620 Serial No 209717183
[checksum bd]
TAG2620/209717183[0]{TELES.S0/16.3c Plug&Play}: Port 0x300; IRQ10 --- Enabled OK
BUT when i tried to load the HiSax modules by modprobe... i
got the following errors...
# modprobe hisax type=14 protocol=2 io=0x300 irq=10
Initialization of hisax failed
Initialization of hisax failed
ISDN subsystem Rev: 1.44.2.9/1.41.2.11/1.48.2.27/1.28.2.2/none loaded

Teles 16.3c: IRQ(10) getting no interrupts during init 3
HiSax: Card Teles 16.3c not installed !

What could be the problem? any ideas?

BTW, I have one of these network cards, and they are supported (in the
developemt section) of the latest 2.2.3 Kernel (or whatever the latest
version is), so a large download of source code, and a kernel compilation
later you should have no problems (just as I did).

Hello,
Can somebody tell me if pinging my firewall computer, which is connected
to my Linux server on a separate network device, from
a network client, say a Win95 box, is an inducation that my Linux server
is IP-Forwarding successfully?
I can ping the firewall box from within the private network but I can't
go out to the Internet from the private network. My goal is to have
access to the Internet from within the private network and I'm trying to
isolate the problem to either the Linux server or the Linux firewall
box.
Thanks is advance for any help.

Most *ISP*s don't give a rip to track you unless they are given reason
to.
Do you have any idea what kind of storage would be required to track all
that.

I'm running SuSE 6.0 (that's a glibc2 + 2.0.36 based dirstribution)
manually upgraded to Samba 2.0.2 and kernel 2.2.2.
The perverse new smbmount seems to work initially.
However after about half an hour of inactivity the shares seem to stop
working.
It is as though the client automatic reconnect to server after timeout
is not working.
A dejanews search seems to imply I'm the only person suffering from
this.
Is this true?
Anyone got any ideas how I can debug this.

My rental building complex wants to save money and not fix
the intercom and door buzzer. They want to hijack all the
phone lines in the building and run them through
a general intercom-buzzer system. When some one rings I will
be bounced off line. Who knows what else they can decide
to do with those lines.
Do people have any rights of privacy any more.!
I heard that police agencies can follow a suspect until
they somehow leave a trace of their DNA and take it. Like
a glass or plate or knife or fork in a restaurant or a hair.
or from a napkin or tissue. What if you happen to

Subject: Cardbus ethernet ActionTec FastNet PRO 10/100
Date: 19 Mar 1999 20:19:47 GMT
I have an ActionTec FastNet PRO 10/100 CardBus on a Mitac 5033T: with
some imagination, I guessed that it features a DEC 21143 chipset, so it
can be drived with the 'tulip_cb' driver under Linux.
I'm using linux-2.2.3 on AMD K6-2/333.
This card is recognized and powered on but in a couple of seconds
starts emitting messages like that:
eth0: 21140 transmit timed out, status f0120000, SIA 000000c6 ffff0001
fffbff7f 8ff50000, resetting...
eth0: transmit timed out, switching to 10baseT media.
It continues with these messages until I stop the pcmcia service at
all.
I had compiled the latest tulip driver 0.9 as a module for CardBus but
it does not work.
Does anybody knows how to fix the problem of media recognition? It is
some other problem behind that?

You use PPP. :-)
The ISDN line card should just be another device to Linux, which can be
accessed the same way as /dev/ttyS0 or /ttyS1 would be for a dial out
modem.
There's a pretty good how-to provided with most distributions - have a
look for it.

Hi,
Wonder if any of u can help me out with a little problem i'm
having with my Teles ISDN card & Linux...
I can't seem to get the kernel to recognize the interrupt
i've set for the card... here's the details..
I'm using kernel 2.0.36 and a Teles 16.3c ISA PnP card...
Here's the relevant section of my /usr/src/linux/.config :-
=========================================
CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_ISDN=m
CONFIG_ISDN_PPP=y
CONFIG_ISDN_PPP_VJ=y
CONFIG_ISDN_MPP=y
CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_LOOP=m
CONFIG_ISDN_DRV_HISAX=m
CONFIG_HISAX_EURO=y
CONFIG_HISAX_16_0=y
CONFIG_HISAX_16_3=y
CONFIG_HISAX_TELES3C=y
CONFIG_HISAX_TELESPCI=y
CONFIG_HISAX_S0BOX=y
=========================================
I've compiled the ISDN subsystem as a module and also the HiSax drivers
for Teles 16xx all as modules.
Booted up with the new kernel
Here's my /etc/isapnp.conf file :-
=========================================
(READPORT 0x0203)
(ISOLATE PRESERVE)
(IDENTIFY *)
(VERBOSITY 2)
(CONFLICT (IO FATAL)(IRQ FATAL)(DMA FATAL)(MEM FATAL)) # or WARNING
(CONFIGURE TAG2620/209717183 (LD 0
(IO 0 (SIZE 2) (BASE 0x0300))
(INT 0 (IRQ 10 (MODE +E)))
(NAME "TAG2620/209717183[0]{TELES.S0/16.3c Plug&Play}")
(ACT Y)
))
(WAITFORKEY)
=========================================
Did an "isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf" and got the following :-
========================================= lspci not found, so PCI resource
conflict not checked Board 1 has Identity bd 0c 80 07 bf 20 26 27 50:

Plug&Play}: Port 0x300; IRQ10 --- Enabled OK
=========================================
OK.. no problem so far... then i did the modprobe hisax like this and
got the results as follows:-
=========================================
# modprobe hisax type=14 protocol=2 irq=10 io=0x300
ISDN subsystem Rev: 1.44.2.9/1.41.2.11/1.48.2.27/none/none loaded

Teles 16.3c: IRQ(10) getting no interrupts during init 3
HiSax: Card Teles 16.3c not installed !
Initialization of hisax failed
ISDN-subsystem unloaded
=========================================
Something's not right here... can't pinpoint exactly where it is... tried
putting the card to another PC but got the same results... MAYBE it could
be the card being faulty OR something else... hope u can help out here..
Thanx ;) ;)

This is what the documentation with SAMBA says to do

The docs actually tell you to put it somewhere else, but the default smb.conf
is looking there.
However, i can't get my SAMBA to work with passwords still.

Hi members,
i have a problem telling the linux-kernl to use nfs as root-directory.
(the workstation is very diskless, no fd or hd)
rarp and bootp are compiled in kernel.
netaddrs and nfsroot are set in lilo.conf
networkadapter is an amd lance chipset (96XXX)wchich is assigned by the kernel
to irq 15 and dma 7 ( bios configuration for ethernet adapter was irq 3 or 9 )
watching the net with tcpdump I realized that no packages were sent over the
network by the workstation.
So long

Hefin,
Our current system is dual P2/350MHz on a SuperMicro P6DBS board, runs
great. We are using the intel pro/100, it also is great. We run a
distributed Oracle database and not a lick of problems. Averaging over
10GB/wk between the servers without a problem.
The local
university has 6 linux servers, including a full feed news server, all
using the intel card on dual
pentium/233s and have not had one problem. Very stable.
Good luck,
Daniel
