Subject: Kingston PCI 10/100 and Tulip problems
Date: Tue, 11 May 1999 01:10:40 GMT
I am relatively new to the Linux world but I do enjoy solving any and
all problems that pop up. This latest one has me baffled. I have a
Kingston Fast Ethernet 10/100 PCI card in my machine. The card works
fine in Windows 95. When I boot Linux the card runs for about 5 -10
seconds and then my hub partitions (I think this occurs when a loop is
encountered) and the transmit light on the hub blinks like crazy. All
of this was occurring using version 0.89 of the Tulip driver and
RedHat 5.2 (2.0.36) I solved the problem by downloading Tulip version
0.91, compiling and installing it. Now I want to try an FTP install
of RedHat 6.0 but am running into the same problem with the boot disk
and the Tulip driver stored there. Is there any way to patch the boot
disk with the updated driver so I can make this work? If I am talking
nonsense just tell me to go away ;-) Thanks in advance for any help
anyone can offer me.

I am having trouble getting the window/exceed boxes to see the new
debian box I just put in the network. It has XDM running and is in init
level 5, However it does not seem to be broadcasting. I do have 6 RH 5.2
boxes up and 4 Solaris 2.6 boxes and they were no trouble at all. I am
sure it is something I have not configured correctly but I do not want
my boss saying we have to go back to RedHat, so please any help would be
great..

How do you start the bridge? The 'bridge' script (And i use the
'bridgex-0.2') to be placed as /etc/rc.d/init.d/bridge (in Redhat i
guess so, and do)
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/bridge: Start or Stop bridge operation
# This is a script for Debian style management of the bridge
# It will also work with any other distribution on its own.
test -x /sbin/brcfg || exit 0
# Here all interfaces to be bridged should be listed
INTERFACES="eth1 eth0"
case "$1" in
start)
for i in $INTERFACES; do ifconfig $i up promisc; done
brcfg start
# Use the following to just bridge strange protocols. Use the more
# efficient routing for localtalk and tcp/ip traffic
# brcfg start exempt 802_3 802_2 ip arp
;;
stop)
brcfg stop
for i in $INTERFACES; do ifconfig $i -promisc; done
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/bridge {start|stop}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
So that script need to have 'INTERFACES="eth1 eth0"' or something
similar filled in. Like 'INTERFACES="eth0 eth2"' or whatever.
Then an '/etc/rc.d/init.d/bridge start' (or '/etc/init.d/bridge start'
if that is where it is placed) should start the script, wich check for
an '/sbin/brcfg' ('test -x /sbin/brcfg || exit 0' the adress is maybe
different in the first bridge version, a 'wich brcfg' may give
something if different versions is installed.)
The lines
for i in $INTERFACES; do ifconfig $i up promisc; done
brcfg start
in the script will then do a (given 'INTERFACES="eth1 eth0"'):
'ifconfig eth1 up promisc'
and a
'ifconfig eth0 up promisc'
before it does a 'brcfg start'
So. If that is the version of brcfg you use. What is the output of
'ifconfig' after '/etc/rc.d/init.d/bridge start' is up and running?
Are all three nic's running promisc? They should not.

After the bridge is started, try to do an extra 'ifup eth2' if that
is the nic supposed to not have any bridging. It may be all that is
needed.
Routing and arp. Look in the HOWTO's. (wich messes with 'brcfg -ena',
I dont use, the script is ok. So it may depend on wich version of
brcfg you are running)
You could play with 'arp -d' and routing, but i belive the 'ifup eth2'
is enough.

I've recently decided that I need to throw myself at Linux, but I'm

and I'm using an SMC 1211 EtherEZ PCI card. Well, to make a long story

it won't autodetect anything - not NE2000, not SMC, not nothing. I'd

not helpful. CAn anyone point me to drivers or at least a card that the

Remove the options line, and it may work now. This will let the autoprober
find the card. After trying to manually configure my 3c509b, it didn't work
until I took out the IO address and IRQ settings. Then the OS found it.

Yes!
Coss connect, or cross over usualy refers to a cable between 2 ethernet
cards, or hubs with the wires reversed, similar to a null modem. Uplink
means a special port on a hub or switch that has the wires reversed. So
basically they are the same thing.
(little diagram, for CAT5 type B crosover cable 100BaseT)

2 (orange) 1
3 (Green white) 6
4 (Blue) 5
5 (Blue white) 4
6 (Green) 3
7 (Brown white) 8
8 (Brown) 7
If I'm wrong with this sorry, I'm doing it off the top of my head, and I
alwayse seem to revers them the wrong way.

In printcap do not use lp as the name of the printer. Set up the printer with
its own name as a local printer. You will need to set up a separate spool file
for the printer. In the papd.conf file put lpr- in front of your printer name.
Is this a quickdraw printer or a postscript one? I have not had experience with
printing from an inkjet printer as they do not normally speak postscript and
linux and the mac do speak postscript. there are ways to make an nonpostscript
printer print using ghostscript but I have not done that process. I have 5
laserwriters printing this way from my macs and my linux box but I use lp for
none of them. Are you using ethernet with this printer?

I have a number of Compex enet16fl NIC's that have worked reliably under
DOS, win3.11 and win95. When I attempt to use them with Linux I have
"unresolved symbols" and the driver doesn't load. I am using ne.o as
the compex card is sold as NE2000+ compatible. Ifconfig shows that the
driver hasn't loaded. My conf.modules is as follows: alias eth0
ne.o
options io=0x340 irq=10
The driver version is reported as the same as the linux version 2.0.36.
The NIC's are ISA and use a DOS based snap utility to configure them.
PNP capability is turned off.

Date: 10 May 1999 23:04:29 GMT
Hello:
I've asked before, and searched before, but have never found a decent
solution for a VT320 emulator for use under X to connect to Oracle-
based applications running on an OpenVMS system.
Simply running an xterm isn't good enough, and the vt220 doesn't
seem to cut the mustard as well. I need an emulator that will provde
Oracle-specific keys such as "Do/Commit", "Menu", "List-Block", etc.
(These are actually listed on the old physical VT320 terminals we
have...the "DO" key is a really huge key at the top of the keyboard.)
This is where, I am embarrassed to say, I have always been driven
back to the Windows world, where I can use the DEC Pathworks emulator
for my Oracle work (it maps the function keys as Alt-F6 for "Do",
<keypad-minus> for "Exit", etc.
I'm sure appropriate keyboard mapping could be written to provide
these key equivalents, but I haven't seen them anywhere. :-(
Any pointers will be appreciated.

You probably need to configure samba for password encryption. See

Try loading the rtl8139 module. This supports the SMC 1211. I didn't have
much luck with mine. I had to go to http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov to get the
latest version in order to get it to load. I had problems with Rx buffer
overruns running at 100 Mbps. After a while I just punted and got a 3C905
10BT and it works fine. I would be interested in hearing how this turns out
for you.

Virtual Private Networks, for one reason.

Try telling that to the kernel maintainers... It took a bit of
bitching to get the 0.83 in the 2.1.1xx upgraded to 0.89H (although I
asked specifically for 0.90 at the time).
Does anyone know if the 0.91 on Becker's site contains support for
2.2.x fastroute and hardware flowcontrol?
