Date: Mon, 08 Mar 1999 17:53:09 GMT
I've been trying to get my Awe32 PNP to work with my copy of OpenLinux
1.3, and have followed the directions in the Sound-How-To and
Awe-32-Mini-How-To (correctly, I think)...my kernel
appears to be correctly set up, maybe not the modules though...any way I
can check? ISAPNP runs
at boot time and I think my isapnp.conf is set up correctly. Anyway,
following the driections in the
mini-how-to at
http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/mini/Soundblaster-AWE.html I get as far
as
the testing part, and that's where things seem to be messed up. Don't
know what's going wrong,
maybe I'm not loading the modules properly or something.. All I get
when I use cat /dev/sndstat is
a line under the Synthezizer part for the Awe32(the rest are
empty). Any suggestions?

Subject: Boot failure on installing from any media
Date: 8 Mar 1999 18:29:31 GMT
I have an old Pentium box with 24Mb Ram and an S3 video card.
I have been so far unable to install
* Debian Linux (not the latest one however) from
a boot floppy
* Red hat linux 5.0/5.2 from both a boot floppy and the distribution CD.
The kernel crashes after the PCIBIOS32 initialization part with either
an ``illegal operand'' or ``general protection'' error (I might not remember the
exact terminology).
The system has two IDE FAT-formatted disks, the master has win95 on it
(which works fine).
The boot media I used were successfully used in previous occasions
to install Linux on other machines.
Therefore I suspect the problem is related to this specific hardware.
This would be the first time I am unable to boot Linux on a particular hardware.
I would be grateful to anyone reporting a similar problem or explaining
what the causes might be.

Date: Mon, 08 Mar 1999 18:30:59 +0000
Hi!
I recently changed to the 2.2.1 kernel. I had 2.0.35. I got everything
to work BUT my LPT1 and the Zip drive on it.
I have a printer on LPT2 on a IO card, it works fine, but for some
reason parport sees it a /dev/lp0, and totally ignores my LPT1! Also
ppa.o will not see my Zip drive, even if I put it on LPT2 instead of my
printer. ppa just responds that the Device or resource is busy. LPT1 is
the on-board parport on my motherboard, I have tried all settings in the
BIOS (SPP, ECP, EPP, ...ect) and parport will not see it. I have tried
many combinations of compiling support in the kernel and as modules,
turned auto probe on and off, compiled ppa as a module, or in the
kernel, ect.... I cannot think of any more possible combinations. Is
there any debugging that I can turn on? Any Ideas? Both ports and my Zip
drive worked fine in 2.0.35. - Jeremy

I also am interested in the 882C. I would like to acquire an HP DeskJet.
Mr. Taylor maintains a good resource on printer compatibility at:
http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/pht/printer_list.cgi
Though, I do find that it is, at the moment, thin on data for late model HP DeskJets.
The 882C is not on the
list.
Might the "enhanced" part of its print language make the printer less than "perfectly"
compatible? I note
that the HP website also lists the 890Cxi/Cse as PCL3 Enhanced and the 890 is in Grant
Taylor's compatibility
DB as "perfectly" compatible. If the 882C could be listed in the Compatibility DB
as "perfectly", then what
non printing functions might be unavailable (based on experience with an ancestral
model)? Any hands on
experience out there? Any hunches?
Grant, can we safely assume that all HP PCL3 printers are perfectly compatible?

Subject: help me choose hardware for my new Linux box
Date: Mon, 08 Mar 1999 16:25:46 GMT
In a couple of days, I'll order my new Linux machine. It will be used
mostly for internet stuff, a little development and a lot of
emulation. I plan to install Red Hat 5.2.
Questions:
64 or 128 MB? I know how pathetic little NT machines groan when they
only have 64MB, but is there any reason for 128MB of memory unless I
run some exceptionally demanding apps (rendering? compilation of huge
projects?)
Modems: Which ones won't I have any trouble with?
Display adapters: This is the difficult one. I really don't do
anything 3d. But I would like, if possible, to be able to get a
TV/cable image on the monitor. If that isn't bad enough, I live in
Israel, so European (PAL) hardware is needed. Do I have any options?
If not, what would be good 'normal' cards?
Partitions: anything special I need to know besides what the installer
will tell me? I have installed Linux before, but back then disks were
less than 1GB...
Last question: Will DOS games (well, emulators) work well with DOSEMU?
or should I create a different freeDOS partition?

I am trying to install Redhat 5.2 on a Compaq Professional Workstation

Compaq lists the interface as a Compaq NC3161 Fast Ethernet 10/100 WOL,

Does anyone know how I can get Linux to recongize the interface?

Subject: Banshee Server and X
Date: Mon, 8 Mar 1999 11:54:53 -0600
I am having a real hard time configuring X to use my Creative Labs Banshee
video card. I went to http://glide.xxedgexx.com and downloaded the server,
but I can't get it to work right. I am running Red Hat 5.2. It seems, as far
as I have found, that there are 2 symbolic links that point to 2 different
servers. From the advice of a friend I cahnged the symbolic link in
/usr/X11R6/bin to point to the new XF86_SVGA that is for the card. But there
seems to be another symbolic link in /etc/X11 that points to it too. The
problem is that it is still using the XF86_VGA16 server and running in
640x480 with a virtual desktop of 800x600 (which is EXTREMELY annoying!). I
can tell because when I close down X it say VGA16 bla bla bla, so I get that
it is using the wrong server. What am I doing wrong? And when I use the
XF86Config, what do i use for the RAMDAC and clock settings? HELP!?!
Thanks,
Gabriel

I look at it this way. 99% of the i386 arch all the way to the pent
II has a 1-2 gig memory limit. Dispite the 4 gig addressability of
the CPU, the chipset will only allow up to 1 gig. more than that is
ignored and is inaccessable because of the chipset. You want more
memory, use a computer that can handle more memory instead of
complaining about no support for something the hardware can't even do.
Our new pent II we sell are only upgradeable to 1 gig. My pent MMX is
only ipgradeable to 512 meg and my pent classic(old socet 7) will only
go 384 meg and my socet 5 board will only hold 128 meg ram.
out servers only have 32-64 meg ram and hold the load just fine. (file
+ web + e-mail all in one server usenet news on another)
to actually NEED that kind of memory, you must have some serious data
to crunch. our news server /w 64 meg ram runs our news server going
through 3 gigs a day and keeps up no prob...
top
12:41pm up 43 days, 23:38, 2 users, load average: 2.85, 2.93, 3.08
36 processes: 35 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: 1.7% user, 2.5% system, 0.0% nice, 96.1% idle
Mem: 63160K av, 61944K used, 1216K free, 6488K shrd, 7672K buff

uptime
12:42pm up 43 days, 23:39, 2 users, load average: 3.80, 3.19, 3.16
this is the beauty of linux. You don't need as much memory as the
other OS(nt) which crashed every 2 days doing web + e-mail which
isn't nearly 1/24 the load as news. MS said you needed more RAM to
get it stable under those loads.
linux even has time to spare, just look at that idle time. if you
NEED 1 gig ram, you NEED an alpha

Hi M,
I am so glad that somebody got this card to work.
I had a terrible weekend (last two in fact) trying to get this card to work.
Now, I know I can ask somebody.
BTW, I did download XFree86 3.3.3.1 and installed it succesfully.
Still I cannot find Velocity 4400 in the list of cards.
On top of this Xconfigurator is dying on me giving a segmentation
fault. I can't even get VGA mode to work.
I can do the setup using XF86Setup though.
What card do I choose? "My Video Card"
Then choose the chipset to be "Riva TNT"
I could not find Riva TNT in the list of chipsets.
Please help. I am going crazy with this problem.

You can erase the disk and re-record on it, but you cannot reclaim the
space used by deleted files without erasing and re-formatting the
entire disk. At least not with a UDF filesystem.
I should caveat this with the fact that I've never actually *used* the
UDF filesystem -- my knowledge comes merely from what I've read.

Well, the cat /dev/sndstat on my SB 128PCI (module es1370.o) do the same

Subject: Advansys 5140 in UK
Date: Mon, 08 Mar 1999 15:54:33 +0000
Hello,
I want to build a Linux system from my old '486 and other various
"junk". I need a SCSI adapter and I'm thinking of the Advansys 5140.
Does anyone know a UK dealer for them?
Thanks
Ken
PS an email respose would be appreciated if that does not break any
rules.
