When running ConfigXF86, when your choices for monitor appear, select
|
|
'Cheap 14" (TRY THIS FIRST)'. I have an 8900c card and my original selection
|
|
for monitor also gave me just 800x600 and 640x480, but this selection gave
|
|
all three resolutions.
|
|
|
|
To make it pannable, enter a "virtual size" larger than the actual size.

Curious. I had the same problem. As a side-effect of switching from
|
|
dip to dslip (Matt Dillon's slip package), I discovered that slattach
|
|
and dslip both flat out do not work when I specified CSLIP instead of
|
|
SLIP. Yet dip seemed to work--aside from the overruns.
|
|
|
|
Without looking into any code, my theory is that the remote end of my
|
|
dialup isn't really set up for CSLIP. Dip is still able to establish
|
|
a (broken) connection. Slattach and dslip fail.
|
|
|
|
I need to contact the appropriate person in my organization to check
|
|
on what my dialup is really configured for...

|
|
|
|
Hello,
|
|
|
|
I am having problems getting my nec cdr210 cdrom to work wih linux.
|
|
The facts:
|
|
|
|
linux 1.1.45 kernel with cdrom, iso9660 and generic ncr5380 lowlevel scsi
|
|
driver compiled. during startup it says: scsi: 0 hosts.
|
|
My scsi card is a DTC avidtek 3151 xt board size scsi board with it's base
|
|
address set at DC00h (factory default). under msdos 6.2 everything works
|
|
fine so no hardware problems.
|
|
|
|
I grepped through the source and found references for the ncr53c400 (which
|
|
is the scsi chip on the card) in the generic ncr5380 code. I read the
|
|
scsi-howto and the cdrom-howto. But whatever I tried, It doesn't work.
|
|
every time I get scsi: 0 hosts.
|
|
|
|
Question has anyone gotten this dtc card working under linux and how thit
|
|
you do it??
|
|
|
|
I read that you can give parameters at the lilo prompt when booting a kernel
|
|
to override the autoprobe etc. but What port and irq uses this board. I can
|
|
only use the jumpers on it to relocate the 16 kb ram space it needs. Which I
|
|
now have set at the factory default of DC00h. I think getting the NEC cdr210
|
|
to work won't be a problem when the scsi card is recognised by the kernel.
|
|
|
|
So if anyone has this board please let me know how you did it.
|
|
(is maybe adding the trantor 130b patches usefull)???

I had the same same, or a similar, problem. My config is

|
SCSI ahrd disc on AH1542
|
|
Mitsumi CD on a proprietary i/f
|
|
I could not find any kernel that would drive both the SCSI and the
|
|
Mitsumi.
|
|
|
|
What I did was to copy the /slackware/ directory tree to a spare hard
|
|
disc partition, using MSDOS, and then used the pure SCSI kernel
|
|
startup kernel on a floppy to boot and build a new kernel that had
|
|
just what I wanted in it. The cdscsi startup kernel would not work
|
|
with my CD -- it insisted on having a Sony drive.

Try to dereference it and have a signal handler to catch the

pointer fault. The handler just sets a global variable.

some recent boards appear to have problems with

Prices should range from US$99 (Taiwan mail order)

to US$160 (STB local retail) All these cards should come

with 1M 60ns DRAM, and be useful up to about 70 MHz dot-clock,

sufficient to run 1024x768ni. Going above 1024x768 is not
|
|
normally recommended, both because you run out of DRAM bandwidth,
|
|
and you start eating into the 256K used for font caching.
|
|
STB says their parts should "work" up to 80 MHz dot clock, and
|

the freq synthesizer and RAMDAC is limited by XFree to 110 MHz.

|

Hi, I'm currently using lpr and a printcap file to send print jobs to
|
|
a remote printer. However, I'm trying to add another remote printer
|
|
that does no filtering of its own. I've read the docs, but I can't
|
|
see any way to cause each print job to be filtered before going to a
|
|
remote printer. Everything I read says that the "if=" line in
|
|
/etc/printcap is ignored for remote printers.
|
|
|
|
Is there way around this? Did I miss something? I've read the
|
|
printing-faq also but saw no clues there. Any ideas would be greatly
|
|
appreciated.
|
|
|
|
BTW, I'm running Slackware 2.0, lpr and using apsfilter 2.0 for filtering.

Here's another vote for the ATI Graphics Ultra Pro. The ATI Mach32

drivers work like a charm, and the speed is excellent for an ISA card!

All IMHO of course.

Is it possible for me to get more information on how to use this
|

type of socket? (Can it be used to implement user level routing
|

protocols or packet filters?)
