I'm running RH 5.1 kernel 2.0.36 on the same hardware minnus the 10b-T with no
problems. The only time I ran into any L2 cache trouble was when I tried a
Gainbery upgrade chip in it while running OS/2. Would not boot unless L2 was
disabled. May not be relevant to Linux.

I need to buy several synchronous cards for Linux (EIA-232 or

We have 3 lines with 64K synchronous modems to setup a private wan.
I believe that at 64K there is no need for smart cards, a card based

Anybody knows were can I buy these cards ?

Does anyone know if a Compaq SystemPro/XL w/2 x 486DX/50 is support
under SMP on Linux kernels 2.1.x or 2.2.x.
I read the linux/Documention/smp.txt that mentioned config'n the system
setup to use Unixware mode. I tried Unixware 7, Unixware 2.0 & 2.1.
Currently I can only get Linux to see 1 CPU and it says the systemboard
does support SMP. Even though I have run SCO and WNT and both CPUs run
on those O/Ss.

Hello:
I've a couple of Linux boxes. Both plain EIDE systems.
When Linux boot, it probes hardware including the hard drive.
On my first system I have a 6.4 Gig Quantum FireBall ST which
has 128kB cache, but Linux reports only 81 kB:
hda: QUANTUM FIREBALL ST6.4A, 6149MB w/81kB Cache, CHS=784/255/63, UDMA

My second system has a new 6.4 Gig Fujutsu MPC3064AT which
has 256kB cache, but Linux reports 0 kB. That's right, zero.
What's going on here?

Linux "finds" whatever it is told to find. In most machines, the BIOS
will not report more than 64Mb, which is why the kernel has a "mem=xxxM"
initialization option to override the BIOS. This should also work in
reverse, allowing you to limit Linux to 960Mb if your BIOS is reporting
more than that.

There isn't one. The only way to use more than 1Gb of RAM is to hack the
kernel.

The linux kernel was written to use a 4Gb memory model, and divides that
into 1Gb of kernel memory and 3Gb of user memory (less a few pages in each
segment). If you want to use more physical RAM, you must increase the
size of the kernel allocation in the map so that the virtual-MMU code can
manage the physical memory from within the kernel memory space. This
means that the user memory space is reduced *for all processes* by the
same amount. This can apparently cause problems with some database
servers.
I found the file/location to do this once before, but haven't the
slightest idea where it is in the source tree now.

Hi..
I am about to set up RedHat 5.2 and I have 2 options for hardware:
a sparc station 20 with 2x75mhz HyperSparc processors, 96mb ram and approx 4gb
hd for $2000, vs a Dell with 1 350mhz pentium II, 128mb ram and 8gb hard disk,
for $2100. the promise of more speed makes the Dell attractive, yet the
sun's multiprocessing architecture could render that point moot. sun boxes
have been very reliable in my experience, but i've only known intel boxes to
act flaky when they run a MicroSloth OS. I guess I lean towards the Sun box
but I may just be biased. thoughts? opinions? what would you do if you had
someone else's $2K to spend on a box which had to be up 24x7 running secure commerce?

But the summary part I do like. The problem is getting the world to follow

of Linux machines, and a Mac, all of which I'd like to be able to print

<http://www.epson.com/printer/inkjet/sty850ne/>, the 850N can handle
lpr/lpd natively, as well as Mac and NT clients.
However, I was wondering if anyone had experience with the 850N and
Linux. I'd hate to spend the extra money for the Ethernet interface,
only to find that it doesn't really work with Linux's lpr/lpd. TIA!

I no longer have the modem, so I cannot verify, but I think that is the same
USR modem that I used to have; it is a win modem, but it does not say so.
I was careful when I bought it, but not quite careful enough.
I recommend the Diamond SupraExpress 56K v.90 modem series; good performance,
and works fine under Linux.

Date: 10 Jan 1999 03:00:23 -0500
Ok, this is my second post on this topic. Same problem, still no progress.
I've got a machine which used to be configured like this:
PcChips M572 Motherboard - Socket 7 board
2.0 - 3.5 Voltage selector
CPU clocks from 75 to 300 MHz supported
83 Mhz max system bus (?)
4 SIMM and 2 DIMM sockets
32 MB RAM (2 * 16 MB 60 ns EDO SIMM)
150 MHz Intel Pentium Classic
1.7 GB IDE Hard disk with only Linux installed
I purchased the following items as upgrades:
AMD K6-2 300/66 MHz 2.2 Volt CPU
128 MB SDRAM DIMM module
An updated bios was flashed to allow the new CPU to be recognized by
the system.
This system, with upgrades installed, fails to boot. Below is a table of
various configurations and the outcome. A 4GB Windows 98 hard disk was
borrowed from another system for this test.
Boot device CPU-> Intel Intel AMD AMD
| Mem-> SIMMs DIMM SIMMs DIMM
V
Debian Linux HD Succeed Succeed Partial Fail
Debian Linux CD Succeed Succeed Partial Partial
Debian Linux FD Succeed Succeed Partial Partial
Dos 5 FD Succeed Succeed Succeed Succeed
Windows 98 HD Succeed Succeed Succeed Succeed
(Some of these entries are based on extrapolations from other cases.)
Definitions:
Succeed: System boots and runs normally (in all cases where CPU/memory
intensive tasks were run, they performed without error)
Partial: Boot-up sequence began but the system did not stay up long
enough to become functional. The average uptime seems to be
on the order of 10 seconds. It appears to fail at nearly
the same point in the boot sequence every time.
This occurs with all kernels tried, from 2.0.34 to 2.2.0-pre5,
including both custom compiles and Debian stock kernels.
The error is always "general protection fault: 0000"
Fail: After a functional LILO prompt, the system hangs after printing
"Loading Linux".
Things I've tried which have had no effect:
1. Disabling Level 1 and/or Level 2 Cache RAM
2. Underclocking the CPU to the same bus/core freq as the Intel CPU
3. Replacing the AMD K6-2 300 with another AMD K6-2 (this one rated at 350
but running at the same clock speed as the 300/66)
If any of you have *any* ideas on what to try to get this working, please
let me know.

Date: 7 Jan 1999 11:59:31 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi,
Has anybody gotten Linux v2.1.132 working with the Scsi 2940U/UW Dual
adapter with SCSI Bios v1.33S2 and a 9.1Gig Western Digital hard drive?
Presently, I'm using DosLinux (the latest) and on bootup, the SCSI card
seems to be recognized for SCSIDs configurations (such as terminations)
and interrupts, but hangs forever and never sees the 9.1Gig WD hard drive
on SCSID0. Are there still problems with the 2940 SCSI driver?
The SCSI card has the AIC 7895 chipset too.
I see the Adapatec has agreed to help the Linux driver people out
developing SCSI drivers for Linux. How is this going, particuarlily
in resolving problems?
Here is my configuration and partition setup.
c:\ MSDOS and Win95 partition of 2Gigs running Doslinux from here
(at least I'm trying to).
d:\ NT4.0 and FAT32 of 2Gigs
e:\ MSDOS partitions of 2Gigs
f:\ MSDOS partitions of 2Gigs
H:\ MSDOS partitions of the remaining disk space.
NT4.0 works okay when I boot into it and it recognizes the disk.
MSDOS works okay when I boot into it from the boot menu and recognizes
the disk.
After booting into MSDOS and start setup.bat (the DOSlinux mini
boot before installing the full install) it hangs trying to find
the disk.
I would think that if the SCSI driver can't find the attached
devices it would time out and tell the user that no devices
found or that something may be conflicting/misconfigured instead
of just hanging.
Any help appreciated, since I'll have to revert back to my
100mhz 1Gig IDE machine (thats out of space) and can boot
without problem and version of DOSLINUX from my new 333mhz
9.1GIG ultra SCSI machine (DELL Optiplex GX1) that now the
only Unix that it'll run is NT4.0. :)
