open gl drivers for TNT and TNT2 cards for linux (and os2/Be etc).

now for the Athlon compatibility, forget that. you'll never have the

Hi,
I have a new Dell PowerEdge 1300 server with an SDT-9000 Sony DAT
drive. I've loaded RedHat 2.2.5-15 and am attempting to read DDS, DDS-2
tapes without success. I'm getting the error:
tar: Read error on /dev/st0: Input/output error
tar: At beginning of tape, quitting now
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
The error occurs immediately - ie the drive doesn't start reading the
tape. The same happens with dd and with the /dev/nsto non-rewind
device. I've tried using mt to set the density (mt -f /dev/st0
setdensity 0x13 etc) and also fiddled with the compression option - no
go..
I've tried DDS, DDS2 and DDS3 tapes and they don't work - BUT! I can
write tapes and then read them back on the drive with no problem. I've
checked the mt-st-5.1 patch is up to date - So what am I doing wrong?
Hope you can help
Peter

Hi,
is there a possibility to alter bios setup values without using the
internal bios setup program (hit del to enter...) but some other program
? I have an embedded PC system without graphic and want to boot linux
from some harddisk (configured on another machine), which already works.
I compiled the kernal with root console on serial port. I thought it
would be fine to have some Linux utility to alter BIOS settings.
Thanks in advance,

A good friend of mine does graphic programming for NASA. He has a SGI on

Subject: Re: dds-1 tape drive question
Date: Mon, 19 Jul 1999 15:40:49 +0200
Hello !
Do you know if your drive supports _hardware compression_ ? Mine -
Archive Python 28388 - does, via dip switches. I've already backed up
1.8 GB uncompressed (but hw compression on) and nearly 4 GB with hw and
additional software compression (gzip). I remember, when I bought the
drive about a year ago, playing a bit with the dip switches but not
really noticing a difference between hw compression on and off (in terms
of length of a test archive of given length with 'mt tell').
But maybe that is different with your HP so you can achieve the native
length only with hw compression on (just guessing) ?
Another dip switch setting, however, yielded unexpected results :
The one documented as "SCSI 2 compatibility" changed the SCSI setup
message to "SCSI 1" instead of 2, slowed down the drive a lot, but
let me use 4GB native of a DDS2 tape I've got (But boy, that took time)!
Meanwhile, I've changed that switch back, as the drive is slooow anyway,
but what I want to say with this is : Try and experiment a bit with
your drive's switches/jumpers; also try different brands of media -
it won't hurt too much, as DDS1 is the cheapest media of all (AFAIK) !
