This is for the Highpoint and Promise ones...

Step one:  Get the latest kernel (currently 2.3.51 but 2.4 will have it)

Step two:  Compile and install

Step Three: Your hda will be hde unless you compile the pci ide controller as ide0 and 
ide1 adn motherboard ones aas ide2 and ide3 so you will have to change lilo and fstab.

Step Four: Reboot and watch it work if you did everything right.

Pop in a windows 98 boot disk and boot up.
type in "fdisk /mbr"

This i think rebuilds the mbr.

Hope this helps.

I think you could be more polite.
Also you are simply wrong, as I spend considerable time and effort testing these
thing out.

But of cause you have tried Linux and hdparm settings and their influence,
also you have tried Linux and irqtune and its different settings,
please report your data and the hardware used?
For now I have to assume you are only talking no hands on experience with linux.
Try for a couple of years.

The other thing that irqtune will improve is mouse response (serial mouse on com)
in X.
On some mobos the mouse cursor would be difficult to move (wandering).
Setting irq priority high would improve that.

Now how many interrupts does the 1200Bd mouse generate ????
LOL, you do not have a clue as to what really happens!

Hi,

I'm getting mad by trying to get a Haupauge WinTV (Radio) Card running.
I get no picture(xawtv, kwintv), sound and channel scanning is working 
well.
I'm using the bttv-0.6.3-66 
The var log messages looks good (the hardware is recognized well, 
all other modules are starting well)till I load the bttv modul:
-> 'readee error'

I have played arround with several bttv options (card=10 .....) without 
success.
I doesn't madder if I use the kernelloader or load the moduls by hand (in 
the correct order)
The Overlay of the vga card is recognize correct as reported in the 
prov/pci.
An additional vidmem doesn't success.

I have compiled readee anew .
Starting it by hand prints the contense of the eeprom (or a part og it ?) 
on the screen (>tvee.h made), AND add the readee error line to messages.

I test the card under win95 in the same computer and unfourtunately it 
works :-\

Hi all,

I have Debian 2.2 frozen on an alphaxl266. everything works fine, kernel
2.2.14 is running right now but i am unable to mount any floppies! it
doesn't matter what format, it just won't mount! (cdroms work fine,
b.t.w) check this output:



foo:/home/user# mount -vt auto /dev/fd0 /floppy
mount: you didn't specify a filesystem type for /dev/fd0
       I will try all types mentioned in /etc/filesystems or
/proc/filesystems
Trying vfat
Trying msdos
mount: you must specify the filesystem type



...and this one:


foo:/home/user# mount -vt <insert your fs here> /dev/fd0 /floppy
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/fd0,
       or too many mounted file systems




this seems to have started since i updated to 2.2 (kernel and debian).



/etc/fstab seems to be fine too:


/dev/fd0       /floppy         auto    noauto,users,exec,suid     0   0



again, it doesn't matter if i replace "auto" with <any fs here>
...finally, all modules are loaded! (floppy, msdos, vfat, fat).
If anybody can shed any light on this, i'd be very grateful ;)

Thanks,

Rubin.

Subject: LOW-low level debugging
Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 14:44:53 +0100

Hello All,

  I've got an annoying problem:  My linux laptop crashes when running
XFree86 4.0.  The problem is that the machine totally locks up.  I am
fairly confident that the problem lies in the Cyber9397 driver causing a
bus lock-up.

  I want to debug this problem, because I am sick and tired of waiting
for e2fsck.

  On the Amiga I used to be able to load a debugger and invoke it
through a NMI.  Is there anything similar for linux, so that after my
computer is totally shafted I can interrupt the machine and get the
processor doing something again (like running a debugger)?

  Where can I find information on low level debugging of device drivers?

Up to ~15000 times per second, and service delay of slighly over 1ms is
acceptable (buffer is 16 bytes long). In properly written PC software
nothing should lock the interrupts for longer than 1ms. Current CPUs could
execute over 100000 instructions during that time.

>If for example the HD, or an other IDE device has a higher priority
servicing

Only if driver is poorly written, and locks the interrupts for longer than
1ms. And even if the loss rate is completely insignificant. (See below for
more).

Until you only occasionaly loose packets, taht's non issue. Http uses TCP
protocol which corrects packet loses untily the loss number is too high.
(Too high means 30% or more).

It's impossible on most normal phone lines. Even on Ethernet packet loss
rate is greater. Difference between 0 and 1 per 1000 packet is not noticable
by anyone. I'm not remember that exactly, but TCP would automatically retry
not less than 3 times before giving up an breakin the connection. If 1 per
1000 packet is lost and retry count is opnly 3 (it's probably higher, but I
don't remember) then on average  1 reqest per 500 would fail, and because of
3 replies one gets 1 per 125000000 failures (in case of 5 retries before
giving up it's 1 per 31250000000000). Since one packet is ~512 bytes that
means one broken link per 64000000000 (over 60GB)  download (in case of 5
retry treshold its roughly 1 per 15PB=1024*15TB (PetaBytes) failure). Thus
that's a non issue. The isue is with overloaded skeneton internet routers,
where packet loss often exceeds 10% or even 30%. But it has nothing to do
with interrupt priorites within your PC.

your p2-233 should blow away my setup.  my drive is a notebook drive (slow). 

but, as always, unless we're using the exact same kernel options, our

Subject: ScanMaker X6 parallel port version under linux?
Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2000 09:57:50 -0400

Hi,
I have the parallel port version of the ScanMaker X6. Is there a way to
get it to work with linux?
The scanner uses a SCSI emulation under Windows, so I would assume that
it still uses the SCSI protocol internally. I also know that the SCSI
port version is supported by SANE.
Any help would be appreciated.

Jan
