Subject: Video Card Installation S3 Daytona Trio 3D2X
Date: Fri, 21 Apr 2000 05:30:11 GMT
I was recently given a S3 Daytona Trio3D2X video card for my home PC.
When I was given the video card I was also given the motherboard with AGP
adapter to go along with it. I inserted all the wires in the correct
places and fit the video card in the proper AGP slot. When I go to use my
computer it only installs the Standard PCI Graphics Adapter. I read the
instructions on the disk that tell me that when I insert the Daytona VGA
Driver CD the Installation shell will appear. The shell apears for about
2 seconds and will not let me proceed with the "Fast and easy
installation." Instead, the Welcome screen appears and isn't much help.
I tried browsing the CD for the correct drivers to download but non of the
drivers I load on my computer will give me more then 16 colors in the
display settings. Please let me know if their is anything I can do to get
the performance I need out of my recently acquired video card.
Thanks,
Madmaxx

Hi,
I am trying to enable USB support under linux. However my motherboard
does not assign IRQ to the onboard USB controller although i have
already enabled the USB Controller in the BIOS setting.
When booting the machine, the bios says IRQ=N/A for USB controller but
once I get into Win98, the usb controller is assigned an IRQ and
everything works fine.
However, under linux, other PCI cards are assigned IRQ except the USB.
So is there any way that I can assign an IRQ to the USB controller in
linux (like what windows 98 does)?
What information do you base your claim on of the IRQ nonassignment?
A setpci call should fix the problem.

Hi
Caldera eDesktop 2.4 (2.2.14 kernel)
ASUS TX97-XE motherboard
Intel Pentium 233MMX
My fresh install lilo.conf has a line 'append = "debug=2 noapic nosmp"' and
dmesg reports the following:
...
mapped APIC to fffe000 (00266000)
...
SMP motherbaord not detected. Using dummy APIC emulation
...
If I remove the "noapic" parameter from my lilo.conf dmesg reports the
following:
...
mapped APIC to fffe000 (00266000)
...
ACPI first time initializing...No ACPI Bios found!
...
SMP motherbaord not detected. Using dummy APIC emulation
...
How are APIC/ACPI related? They seem to be - there was no reference to ACPI
in the boot messgages before I removed the "noapic" parameter.
Is ACPI an advanced APM?
My motherboard manual faithfully tells me that ACPI is supported.So, why
should the ACPI Bios not be found?
Ultimately, what I want is for my PC to power down when I close down Linux.
There are numerous references in the Cladera user manual that my PC will do
this "if my hardware supports it". Is this APIC/ACPI support they are
referrring to?
Now, I understand (I think) that the kernel needs to have APM support
compiled in to use APM, which would achieve what I want. But, Cladera
eDesktop 2.4 doesn't have this by default and I would rather go the
non-kernel compile route if possible if I can get APIC/ACPI support up and
running.

John Duffy

I'm not familiar with storm, but assuming you have another OS such
as Windows to access the CD you might check the images for an
"extra" hardware disk or some disk with a bunch of modules for use
by the kernel on the boot disk. It may have support to install from
your CD drive.. but it's just conjecture on my part. The other thing
you can try if that doesn't work is to copy an image while on the
other OS and try installing from the image on the hd if you have
the space.
Check
www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO
and of course the storm website for install from hd info.

Greetings,
Has anyone succeeded in using cdrecord-1.8.1a6 with Yamaha 8424S and
BT-930? My linux-2.3.99-pre5 box recognizes the CD-RW drive
correctly. However, if I execute the line
cdrecord -v dev=0,2,0 -speed=8 -data -dummy disk_image
the system always hangs. But when I use the option -V to get the trace
of SCSI commands, it goes through. Any suggestion?
Also, what speed people are using? And should I close the sector
size pins at back of the CD/RW driver? What is the best settings for
SCSI bus? I'm using asynchronous transfer mode, untagged queue and no
error recovery now.
Thanks,

This is a mini-HowTo to get really high transfer rates :

- go to the nearest computer dealer;
- buy SCSI.
do this and you'll never again bother about transfer rates.

I think that the main difference is how much money you want to invest in
your Cd burner. IDE drives are a little bit cheaper, and work without
adding an expensive interface card. SCSI is faster and more reliable,
but you'll have to pay a little more for the burner + the interface
card.

I need drivers for the SpeedStream 3060 internal PCI DSL adapter, by
"Efficient Networks". This is a combination DSL interface and ATM card,
which is designed to support PPP over ATM type DSL connections.
From what I gather, it is similar to the SpeedStream 3010 ATM NIC, but
instead of being designed as an ATM nic, it is designed as a DSL interface

3. Can I take my software and run it on a Beowulf and have it go faster?
[1999-05-13]
Maybe, if you put some work into it. You need to split it into parallel tasks that
communicate using MPI or PVM or network sockets or SysV IPC. Then you need to
recompile
it.
Or, as Greg Lindahl points out, if you just want to run the same program a few thousand
times with different input files, a shell script will suffice.
As Christopher Bohn points out, even multi-threaded software won't automatically get a
speedup; multi-threaded software assumes shared-memory. There are some distributed
shared
memory packages under development (DIPC, Mosix, ...), but the memory access patterns in
software written for an SMP machine could potentially result in a *loss* of
performance on
a DSM machine.
