The file you want is the utility package "sndkit" which is meant to
|

accompany the kernel sound driver. It has a small program "mixer"
|

as well as an X version, xvmixer.

The probe problem mentioned occurs in the autoIRQ code, which
|
|
1) has been updated to work (I think) with level-triggered interrupts in my
|
|
development version of auto_irq.c, and
|
|
2) isn't be needed with the PCI-PnP-aware version of the driver (the 24 bit
|
|
version was put out for alpha test yesterday, the 32 bit version might
|
|
replace it in a few days).
|
|
|
|
I've also changed this driver's interrupt handling to loop on the interrupt
|
|
bit, as required for level-triggered interrupts. (The other drivers do
|
|
this, I don't recall why I didn't structure this driver the same way.)
|
|
|
|
Still remaining to be done is the changes to interrupt dispatcher and
|
|
request_irq() to efficiently support multiple devices on the same interrupt
|
|
line.

I am currently reading a book just on that subject. Curt Schimmel
|
|
has written a book called "Unix systems for modern architectures"
|
|
which discusses cache and multiprocessor issues for kernel design.
|
|
So far it looks quite useful and informative.

Date: 30 Sep 1994 03:21:10 GMT
|
|
|
|
i've been trying to get an answer for this question for over 2 weeks, and i
|
|
haven't even gotten a flame calling me an idiot or telling me im posting in the
|
|
wrong place. i posted before in col.help, but since i've gotten no answer from
|
|
there and i suspect there might be a new kernel compile involved, ill post it
|
|
here.
|
|
|
|
i recently read a post in one of the news groups where someone said that they
|
|
had dial-in working with (uu)getty_ps and they did a kernel upgrade and it
|
|
stopped working. i paid notice to this post, but didn't save it as it wasn't
|
|
important at the time [as i wasn't ready to do this yet], but i was still
|
|
hoping to read an answer.
|
|
|
|
since then, i've tried to set it up on two machines [1.1.50 and 1.1.51]. both
|
|
are using getty_ps v 2.07d. i didn't have any problem getting it set up, and
|
|
everything seems to work up until the time uugetty is supposed to prompt for
|
|
login. the debug output says "calling getlogname()" but a little garbage
|
|
prints on the other screen and that's it. i've tried every configuration and
|
|
made sure that both modems are the same setup.
|
|
|
|
i would have written this off as stupidity [and it still may be], but i found
|
|
nothing in any HOWTO but since someone else had mentioned the same [?] problem,
|
|
im not so sure.
|
|
|
|
does anyone know if this is related to the new kernel, and if this is the case,
|
|
if it has been fixed? or am i just an idiot about to be violently flamed?
|
|
[hopefully with the anser to my problem also ;)]

Yeah, but it's not as simple as taking two SCSI computers and hooking
|
|
them up to each other. You've got to make sure that no two devices on
|
|
the SCSI bus have the same address. Often, the host adapters of two
|
|
computers will have the same address. Sometimes this can't be
|
|
changed (eg. with cheap SCSI cards). You've also got to make sure no
|
|
two disks in both systems have the same address, etc...
|
|
|
|
So, yeah, TCP/IP could be implemented over SCSI, but it's of dubious
|
|
value with network cards as cheap as they are.

Both fixes (I've seen another one, too) lead to the following here (at boot
|
|
time; it is reproducable; and!!! my "normal" v1.1.51 makes no problems - in
|
|
this relation..):
|
|
|
|
[...]
|
|
fsck.ext2: No such device while trying to open /dev/sdb1
|
|
couldn't find valid filesystem superblock
|
|
fsck.ext2: No such device while trying to open /dev/sda1
|
|
couldn't find valid filesystem superblock
|
|
/dev/hdb1 is clean, no check
|
|
[...]
|
|
|
|
I tried it several times. No other changes. Also did switch the whole box off.
|
|
It is definitely the change to floppy.c that leads to this..
|
|
|
|
(relevant, I think) Hardware:
|
|
|
|
- AT-Bus Controller w/ two IDE hard disks attached & floppy enabled!
|
|
- AHA1542B w/ 4 hard disc's, 2 SQ5110 and a streamer attached & floppy
|
|
disabled!
|
|
|
|
I'd really like to have one more look at some of the postings here but
|
|
unfortunately a filter did "hit" me (it deleted all msgs. with "flop", "scsi",
|
|
"adapt" and "aha[12]" in the subject line... :-}, I did switch it off a little
|
|
late.. )
|
|
|
|
Seeing that the scsi hard discs (well, to two which should be automounted at
|
|
startup) are not recognized (right) when applying either of the patches
|
|
mentioned here, and having in mind that there's been some posting related to
|
|
probs with the AHA1542B, I guess there may be some relation..
|
|
|
|
Maybe this helps lighten up this
|
|
"Adaptec?/shutdown/mount/floppy/etc.." mess. :-}

BASH doesn't have the DEBUG "fake" signal. It would be nice to

PLEASE READ THIS. I DID NOT MAKE THAT POST!
|
|
|
|
This posting did not come from our office, but we are tracing it.
|
|
If you look carefully at headers you will find sites that don't exist,
|
|
and see that it does not trace back to scheidel@gate.net.
|
|
|
|
We have a good idea of who it is and some admins are helping us trace it
|
|
by comparing the posting on their machine to other postings.
|
|
|
|
If you have the time and ability to help us trace this, we can give you
|
|
info on who is doing it and maybe try to pressure HIS site to drop him.
|
|
|
|
Again, I did not do this post, and we have taken great pains to avoid
|
|
offending anyone, and to date this is my first flame, even if undeserved.
|
|
|
|
I thank those who looked at headers and saw it was a forgery, and look
|
|
forward to a solution to this.
|
|
|
|
NOW TIME TO PAUSE AND PONDER:
|
|
Seems like every time I get too full of myself, someone helps to humble
|
|
me and remind me, that I too am just a sinner saved by the grace of God.
|
|
|
|
NOW BACK TO BUSINESS:
|
|
ps, reply with subject line "hacker" to avoid auto reply.

I've used two ethernet cards on 1.0.9 and later. I think that the
|
|
support has been there since 1.0. Read the Ethernet-HOWTO (available
|
|
on sunsite.unc.edu) for informationon how to set up the second
|
|
card. It basically involves a command on the LILO startup prompt.

You need to do a few things. First, you need to enable IP forwarding
|
|
in your kernel if you're using any kernel after about 1.1.13. This is
|
|
one of the "make config" options.
|
|
|
|
Second, you need to set up some routing. On the gateway, you need to
|
|
set up a default route to the .100 address. You also need to set up a
|
|
route for your internal network.
|
|
|
|
On each machine (on your internal network), the default gw will be the
|
|
gateway machine's address (whatever that is).
|
|
|
|
Finally, you need to be able to tell your provider about your internal
|
|
network. This is most easily done with a static route at the provider,
|
|
which will identify the gateway machine as the next hop on the way to
|
|
your internal network. This is the easiest way, but not necessarily
|
|
the best. The best way is probably to run "routed" or "gated" and send
|
|
RIP updates to your provider from the gateway machine. However, this
|
|
takes some more work to get set up.
|
|
|
|
I would recommend an investment in O'Reilly's "TCP/IP Network
|
|
Administration", available at most (good) computer stores or technical
|
|
bookstores. It explains how to do all of this. You can also reach
|
|
O'Reilly via WWW or ftp to ora.com.
|
|
|
|
Good luck!

I had the same problem, and sometimes was able to get it working,

sometimes not. I didn't ever get the whole thing to successfully

compile. You can pick the binaries up from sunsite, though, which is
|
|
much easier than trying to get it to compile. The suggestions I got
|
|
from the guy who *does* get it to compiler were to upgrade my bash to
|
|
the latest (1.14, I think), upgrade to the latest net stuff (net3),
|
|
and try both yacc and bison.
|
|
|
|
If you do get this to compile, please let us know what you did.

Hi, has anyone gotten the mouse that comes with the ati ultra + working.
|
|
Its supposed to be ms inport compatible but nope, don't work. I tried
|
|
the atixl and regular ms drivers and none work. With all of them I keep
|
|
getting invalid argument. The also don't show up in the boot messages (the
|
|
driver initializing the mouse). Its set to use irq 5 and the primary
|
|
addr range (23Ch to 23Fh). Could not find anyrhing in the how to either.
|
|
Any help appreciated.

Yes, huhu. Think about how this will interact with disk caches.
