Hello, I'm searching for a multi-port IO card to have up to 16 RS232
serial port on a PC Intel.
I've found the Intelliport (4 or 8 port by card) from Computone but the
dirvers for Linux are in beta version.
Thank you.

Just be careful what you order....sound card wise, for example, get
the SB live, which has newly released (very alpha i think) drivers. No
modems will work unless you ask for a 3com USR python (pnp ISA
hardware modem) but everything else should be fine. You'll pretty
much be on your own for support, etc.. though.
Optiplex boxes *might* be better--they are sold w/ Red Hat
preinstalled nowadays, as are workstations ( a 210 might suit you
needs)
Good Luck!

Subject: problem with serial ports on Amptron PM-9800 motherboard
Date: Fri, 11 Jun 1999 14:52:09 -0400
I posted this problem before, about a month or two ago. At the time I
convinced myself that the problem had to be hardware related, and
returned the board for repair. However, after having gone through four
boards (one swapped at the retailer and two with Amptron directly) and
experienced the same problem, I am ready to see if I overlooked
something software wise. (Either that, or Amptron has a serious Quality
Assurance problem!)
The problem is that the onboard serial ports, COMM1 and COMM2, only seem
capable of sending characters, but not receiving them. With a serial
analyser connected to the serial port I can see characters on the
transmit line (pin 3 on DB-25 connector) from a command like:
cat >/dev/ttyS0
However, when I connect the transmit line back to the receive line on
the serial port (pin 2 on a DB-25 connector) I stop seeing the
transmitted characters using the same command to send to the port. The
only thing I can think of that would cause these symptoms is an internal
short on the board. If the receive line were shorted out it could pull
down the transmit line, preventing me from seeing the transmitted
characters. (However it seems unlikely that this could happen on four
successive boards.)
Anyone out there have any ideas? On my previous two Linux systems I had
no such problems with the serial ports. I had them both talking PPP
with my internet provider and using the mouse. With the current system
I can do neither. (I am about to the point of chucking the Amptron
board in the trash and buying different motherboard, but I hate to admit
defeat.) Is there some BIOS or Linux misconfiguration that could cause
this problem?

I have set up two boxes with the ASUS P5A and AMD K6-2 chips
which run very decently. As mentioned by others UDMA
(or even Busmaster DMA) is not yet supported for the ALI chipset
of this board by the standard 2.0 or 2.2 kernels, thus disk access
will be slow (polled IO mode through BIOS, high CPU usage).
Nevertheless, it runs quite fast under the stable kernels.
However, an upgrade to the recent development kernel 2.3.5
activated busmastering, and I havent encountered problems so far.
As with any Super7 boards pick your PC 100 SDRAM wisely,
go for brand labels even if you pay 20% more for your memory.
That way you can avoid most of the headaches other people have.

If the mouse is serial it should work with the logitech mouseman
protocol. I should also work with the Microsoft protocol, but then you
might not be able to use the third button.
However if the mouse isn't serial but PS/2 you should use PS/2 protocol
and also make sure that your kernel support PS/2 mouse. There is more
info about this in the BusMouse HowTo.

Looks like you either do not have lpd running or it's not even installed.
Use 'ntsysv' to ensure it's installed (and configure it to run at
boot-time).

Yes, I have a Logitech Soundman Wave, left over from an old Winbox I had
which I thought I would try in a Linux box I have just started setting
up
since it says it was supported.
My problem is pnpdump can not find the card (So I am guessing it is not
ISA plug and pray ? since I have lost the manuals to it), tried a few
combos
with kernel compiles etc then found out the OSS that comes with SUSE6.1
has a registered version on it so I thought I would give that a bash.
Problem is, when I select the Soundman Wave entry when setting it all
up it asks for /dos/data/midi0001.bin file which it can not find. umm..
where can I get said file from ?
Anyone else using a SOundman Wave OK ?

Thanks for help Steffen,
I have my settings set to those in the manual for the monitor
and it says
Horizontal 27.0 - 110.0kHz
Vertical 50 - 90Hz
the monitor will support a resolution of 1600 x 1200, so it's not like
I'm asking too much of it.
I put these figures in on xf86config and yet the server still appears
to try and run my monitor too fast.
It looks like I may have to try and understand the config file, could
take some time though.
Kevin.

Linux to see the NIC? It's not any brand listed in the list of Linux NICs

First, is it a serial mouse? If so, is the serial port sharing an IRQ
with anoher serial port? For example, if you have a COM1 and a COM3 (on
a modem, maybe) they might both be using IRQ 4. That works in Win95 but
not in either Linux or WinNT; you may have to change the IRQ on your
modem in that case, that is, if you can change you modem's IRQ at all.
(To diagnose this problem, look under Control Panel / System in Win95,
where you can find out what IRQ the serial ports are using.)
I had some problem with Logitech PS/2 mice when I installed thenm as
Logitech mice in Redhat 5.2, but when I used the "generic 3-button
mouse" setting it worked fine, so that's what I use.

This may affect what you need in your /etc/printcap file. Make sure
you have one, and that it contains an entry that corresponds to your
printer. Your distribution should have set this up, calling it
"configuring the printer". If this doesn't give what you want, the
manpage for the file will give some clues on editing it.
