Installation problem with ATI 128 video card
Hello I recently tried to install the potato distribution from the set of CD. Unfortunately it happens that I own an ATI Rage 128 video card, which was not detected by the installation program. Therefore I currently can only run text mode. I had already experienced this problem with a RedHat 6.0 distribution, and it had only been solved by the fitting X server that I could find in a magazine. I'm afraid I am not fluent enought in Debian APT packaging system, to install the good things in X environment and then just replace one file by my server. Too bad... Well, instead of this track, I tried to follow another one, based on the frame-buffering : and there is an option relative to ATI 128 card !!! You can easily imagine my happyness... until it appeared that the kernel compilation had failed, because of a missing soucrce... which was precisely the one called aty128.c :) Do you think ther can be a solution to my problem ? or must I throw my video card away :( Thanks by advance -- | Bernard Brémond| BB for short | | CENA Division CEC (site ENAC) | [EMAIL PROTECTED]| -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

can't detect NIC
I'm tyring to install the i386 disks from 'testing' on a Toshiba 1805-S203, to which I've added a Linksys Combo ethernet card. When I select the menu item to configure the PCMCIA card(s), I choose the i82365 card type option. At that point, the system seems to detect the Linksys card: i.e., it beeps twice, and the link light on the media coupler turns on. Next, I try to configure the network. However, at this point, I get the message no network interfaces were found. When I execute a shell and look at the modules that were loaded when I configured the PCMCIA cards, I notice that they include axnet_cs and af_packet. Both of these are marked as (unused). On other laptops, I've used the pcnet_cs modules to drive the Linksys card. If I simply remove the axnet_cs module and those it depends on modprobe -r pcmcia_core and then install pcnet_cs modprobe pcnet_cs the link light stays on, but the configure-the-network dialog still reports no network interfaces. I guess that somehow the system doesn't know that eth0 should be identified with the pcnet_cs driver. How can I tell it? Or is there some other way to get the system to recognize the NIC?

I guess that somehow the system doesn't know that eth0 should be identified with the pcnet_cs driver. How can I tell it? i found something similar with my Xircom CreditCard Ethernet CE3B-100BTX card - some versions (3.1.28) of pcmcia-card-services detect it as a memory card. however, i found that compiling the 3.1.22 modules, and using it with the 3.1.28 cardmgr (as is found on bf-3.0.13 and greater) provides satisfactory results. to gain even more feedback as to what is going on, either start a shell, or go over to VC2 and start the shell there, and check the output of dmesg. -john -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: Problem during installation
Hi, I had chosen Debian as my new OSbut I cant install it...I have a problem in the step of ``Instalar el núcleo del sistema operativo y los módulos'' (i think is Install OS Kernel and packages) well, the thing is that when I put the CD nº1 it asks for the rescue floppy (¿?)and if I put CD nº2 it ask for a filr rescue.bin,when i manually select the location of file, it turns be be nothing in there... Well, more details of the situation are: HD is the secondary master of 3.2Gb with a linux native partition of 2.5Gb and a swap one of 700Mb, and I boot the system fron the CD nº1... Please HELP ME!! (by the way, I worked for about a year in an ISP and costumers say Debian is the most efficient linux for networking...congratulations!) Martin Gonzalez Buenos Aires - Argentina [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK, sorry as you can see I am so new in this...Is the 2.2.r3 version over an i386 architecture (is a k6-2 500Mhz)there are 3 cds... Sorry I don't have much of a clue. That's good you're using the latest release version. For i386, there are 4 different flavors (check out the install documentation in the disks-i386/doc folder). It may be you would have better luck trying the idepci flavor, if you were trying plain vanilla. When it is looking for the rescue floppy, it's really looking for rescue.bin, the rescue floppy image. It's actually asking you to identify which flavor you want by pointing it to a rescue.bin within the right flavor directory. ** | .''`. | Debian GNU/Linux: http://www.debian.org| | : :' : | debian-imac:http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net | | `. `'` | . oo Chris Tillman| | `-| ( -) [EMAIL PROTECTED]| *--* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
