I am having the same problem. The daemon does not work! I tryed two

versions of the printing programs: one distributed as lpr.tar.z which

apparently is an older version, then I downloaded the source code from

net-2 (lpd-590.tar.gz). I followed the instructions in 'Printing.HOWTO'.
|
|
Directory '/var/spool/lpd' exists and all files seem to have the

appropriate ownership.
|
|
|
|
The only thing I don't have is the full net-2 installation. Is it
|
|
needed to use the lpd package?
|
|
|

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Subject: Cheap 4port/1IRQ serial card!
|
|
Date: 25 Sep 93 19:16:08 GMT
|
|
|
|
|
|
Need more cheap serial ports but short on IRQs ?
|
|
This works for me:
|
|
|
|
How to use one IRQ with the STB 4-COM card:
|
|
|
|
These lines must be added to rc.local or somewhere in system
|
|
initialization (as early as possible to prevent problems later)
|
|
Note that I specified ALL the serial ports, even the two standard
|
|
ones on the el-cheapo i/o & ide board as well as 0x3e8 and 0x2e8
|
|
which don't exist, just to avoid problems. When I get another one
|
|
of these STB 4-COM boards, I plan on disabling both uarts on the
|
|
i/o board, assigning IRQ 4 to the first STB card and IRQ 3 to the
|
|
second one and thus gain back 3 IRQs for more productive use :)
|
|
(such as another SCSI HA and another parallel printer)
|
|
If STB comes up with a way to alter the base ports address (say to 100)
|
|
then I'd probably get another two of these cards also! (are you listening,
|
|
STB???) In the meantime I might reverse-engineer the circuit and get
|
|
out the ole soldering iron myself!
|
|
|
|
yan (yet another note) - you MUST use setserial-2.01 to pull this off.
|
|
I don't think the stock one allows specification of the uart which is
|
|
critical to making this whole thing work!
|
|
|
|
# now set up the serial ports (put this in rc.local or wherever)
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua0 uart 16450 port 0x3f8 irq 4
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua1 uart 16450 port 0x2f8 irq 3
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua2 uart 16450 port 0x3e8 irq 12
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua3 uart 16450 port 0x2e8 irq 5
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua4 uart 16550A port 0x1f8 irq 15
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua5 uart 16550A port 0x1e8 irq 15
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua6 uart 16550A port 0x2a8 irq 15
|
|
/etc/setserial -b /dev/cua7 uart 16550A port 0x1a8 irq 15
|
|
|
|
Note the last four ports at different addresses sharing the same IRQ.
|
|
The key thing here is that only ONE of the IRQ blocks must
|
|
be jumpered - in this case I chose B (Why? Just because.)
|
|
On the P0 block (port IRQ Block select) which maps the physical
|
|
ports to the proper IRQ block, set them all to the same one you
|
|
chose - in my case B which is: down,up,down,up,down,up,down,up
|
|
Pictorially this looks like :
|
|
P4 --u-----
|
|
P4 --d-----
|
|
P2 ---ud--- <=== this one gets the IRQ (blockB)
|
|
P1 ---d----
|
|
P0 dudududu <=== (blockB,blockB,blockB,blockB)
|
|
( - == no connect, u == top two pins on, d == bottom two pins on )
|
|
|
|
# and these are the results : (issue a /etc/setserial -a /dev/cua(n)
|
|
# where (n) is the number of the port)

That's it! It works great for me - have only run speeds up to
|
|
38400, so haven't played about with the hi_speed options and
|
|
cannot speak to them. 38400 is all my terminals and lines
|
|
will go to anyways.
|
|
|
|
This is a very reasonable 4-port solution requiring no driver
|
|
software additions. I think you can get the board for about
|
|
$110.00 (us) - at least I did. Some company was mentioned here
|
|
on the net as selling them. If you need their phone number and
|
|
or address and exact price, leave me email here and I'll send it
|
|
to you -- don't want this to become a "home internet shopper's channel"
|
|
now do we!
|
|
|
|
Hope this is of help to those who, like myself, are "IRQ-challenged"
|
|

These systems seem to be put together with generic parts,
|
|
which means that they should work fine with any of
|
|
the above operating systems.
|
|
|
|
However, based on what I have seen and read about these machines,
|
|
they are best avoided.
|
|
|
|
The company has been continually blasted for it's sleazy
|
|
marketing practices. They were advertising their Blue Ligtning
|
|
systems from mid-August on,and were promising
|
|
five day delivery times. However, Blue Lightning Motherboards weren't
|
|
shipping until something like setp 22. The average wait
|
|
on their machines was about 3 weeks or so.
|
|
|
|
On top of that, from what I recall, the BL 66Mhz chips
|
|
don't have the FP unit, and have horrible memory performance.
|
|
|
|
I'd recomend a Dell o a Gateway. Dell has been doign
|
|
some massive price cutting of late, and Gateway always has good deals.

No argument there, but if we go by the original post, the question was not
|
|
regarding TeX, but TEX (different spelling and pronunciation). If you
|
|
look in chapter 1 of ``The TeXbook'', you'll find the following tidbit
|
|
from DEK: ``In fact, TEX (pronounced tecks) is the admirable Text
|
|
EXecutive processor developed by Honeywell Information Systems.'' So TEX
|
|
is, in fact, a word processor (unless I've misunderstood what DEK meant).
|
|
TeX, of course, is not.
