Jumpers for both interrupts and IO adress...I had (previously to posting my first message even) check /proc/interrupts found that 11 and 9 are free interrupts for me...and the board suports both (it also suports 12 which is my PS/2 mouse and 10 which is my NIC card) I don't have the manual for the card but... if I look at the board itself i see jumpers (yes jumpers...I LOVE jumpers.. the best way to set IRQs and what not) next to one of the sets of jumpers there are a few rows marked I9, I10, I11,I12. ...I assume these ar eteh interrupt setting then there is another which is marked in: 140 out: 340 (I think...I forget the higher value) in any case yes...I am pretty darned sure I used the rigth IRQ > (or software)? I get similar messages if I put the wrong irq in > the AHA152x module load line. hmm well it isn't a module load line... its in the kernel boot parametersI don't use kernel modules whenever I can avoid them...I just compile it into the kernel and turn off what I don't need same diff tho I guess.... > If it is one of those plug-n-pray > cards there used to be some utils that might help, iirc. > > Pat Ouellette > > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Amateur Radio (voice): KB8PYM on KB8YVY repeater (52.650 / 146.835 / > 444.650) > Amateur Radio (packet): [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Running down the hall: Hey you! > > You can ping your node, you can ping you neighbor, but you can't ping your > neighbors node. > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > > Stephen Carpenter > > Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 1998 9:37 PM > > To: debian-user list > > Subject: ACK!
