Whenever you give dmesg output you really should mention the kernel version. Often the dmesg output changes between versions. Also you should mention the hardware/driver you use. I checked the source for the latest pcmcia drivers and noticed similar messages in the axnet_cs.c driver. It appears to be from the card returning the address to start reading which is not where it finished reading before. So something strange is being done in the read buffers (could be a hardware problem). This isn't what I'd expect to see as a result of physical damage to the PCMCIA bus. It is what I expect to see from a cheap network card that doesn't work correctly. I recently bought myself a cheap 100baseT network card that has similar problems (which I have not yet debugged). I think that the real problem is that there's a lot of junk hardware being sold. Probably you should test it out in another computer to check if it's your computer or the network card. But I'm willing to bet it would be your network card. -- If you send email to me or to a mailing list that I use which has >4 lines of legalistic junk at the end then you are specifically authorizing me to do whatever I wish with the message and all other messages from your domain, by posting the message you agree that your long legalistic sig is void.
New laptop HD
I've recently acquired a new larger hard drive for my laptop - and am pondering the best way to do a reinstall. (sony picturebook, I have had to use debian 2.1 disks in the past because I had to get through everything but drivers and base system (they were on a vfat partition). Is there any way to use a dos boot disk (thus gaining access to my pcmcia cdrom) and then loadlin and the likes to do a cd-install, or will that not work because the second the kernel takes over it will stop looking for the cdrom the way dos did? Also, I am curious on how to recreate the suspend partition. I seem to recall some people mentioning that doing a simple fdisk under dos will recreate it properly - but I just don't have that much faith in dos fdisk. This is going from 4gigs to 10gigs by the way, and I have this frightened feeling that the bios will want it at 64ish megs before the 8gig mark. (think it also wants video, could be wrong on that, which would bring it to 66.5) and naturally, I've been reading the debian weekly newsletters, and am curious how close 3.0 is - I don't know whether they support usb floppy drives in their floppy sets of this (or perhaps the 2nd or 3rd cd might have disks for this). Even if they don't, I would be willing to roll a custom kernel and jump through the hoops if need be just to install 3.0 when it comes out - it'd be nice to have a real fresh new system. I suppose it's worth mentioning that I do have a 2.5->3.5 ide adaptor so doing the install on the desktop is definately a possibility - but I do very much have to deal with the suspend partition issue first. I am also contemplating just using PowerQuests DriveImage to restore everything in, but again that needs the suspend partition :) and of course - all my critical and personal laptop's files are rsynched in case I just go the reinstall route. Summary: how do i properly create the suspend partition 4gig->100gig? can you use a dos boot disk + loadlin to access pcmcia cdrom for install? when's 3.0 coming! :) ? how glad am I that I have the 2.5->3.5 adapter? (don't gotta answer this one). Thanks a bunch, this list seems to try its best to be very helpful. -Martin
KDE
Hi Last year I loaded KDE 2 into my laptop. It's been working fine ever since. I now find that owing to my own experiments with Debian that a complete re-install would probably be best. Had a look round the net and can't find any .DEB packages for KDE. Can anyone point me in the right direction with an ftp address or a useful URL please. I did look under sid on the Debian ftp site but couldn't find it there either. Thanks -- Richard www.sheflug.co.uk

backlight off w/o suspend
I'd like to turn off the backlight when I'm away for the day, but leave unsuspended so I can connect back from work via the cable modem. There was a similar question last summer and the suggestion to switch to CRT; something like that would be fine with me, except that the fn-f8 that would appear to accomplish this on my Dell I7K doesn't do anything. Also, the Battery-Operated mini-HOWTO seems dated and not always applicable to debian (e.g. no update call in /etc/inittab), so any suggestions for better advice on reducing syncing and flushing intervals w/o a full suspend would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance. PS please CC - lists.debian seems to be ignoreing my requests to re-subscribe after my recent move. If it matters, I'm running mostly potato with a little woody for flavor (but still Xfree3.6 and the steveh IIRC patched Mach64 server)

The correct links are http://plat.debian.or.jp/debian-jp/dists/potato-jp/main/disks-pc98/current/ for the boot floppies and http://www.kmc.gr.jp/proj/linux98/arch/i386/boot/grub98/ for the grub replacement. I used the 2001/11/12 version which is at http://www.kmc.gr.jp/proj/linux98/arch/i386/boot/grub98/grub-0.5-pc9800-2002.tar.gz BTW, I just upgraded the machine to woody over the weekend (great fun without a network connection! :-) and when I have some time will write that up as well. The next step will probably be installing X (that is if disk space permits; maybe I'll just make it ;-). -- Olaf MeeuwissenEpson Kowa Corporation, CID GnuPG key: 6BE37D90/AB6B 0D1F 99E7 1BF5 EB97 976A 16C7 F27D 6BE3 7D90 LPIC-2 -- I hack, therefore I am -- BOFH -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Any dmesg or /var/log/{kern,syslog,messages} messages that look relevant?
What about /proc/interrupts? Is there an interrupt assigned to PS/2 mouse?
What's in /proc/misc?

backlight off w/o suspend
I'd like to turn off the backlight when I'm away for the day, but leave unsuspended so I can connect back from work via the cable modem. There was a similar question last summer and the suggestion to switch to CRT; something like that would be fine with me, except that the fn-f8 that would appear to accomplish this on my Dell I7K doesn't do anything. Also, the Battery-Operated mini-HOWTO seems dated and not always applicable to debian (e.g. no update call in /etc/inittab), so any suggestions for better advice on reducing syncing and flushing intervals w/o a full suspend would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance. PS please CC - lists.debian seems to be ignoreing my requests to re-subscribe after my recent move. If it matters, I'm running mostly potato with a little woody for flavor (but still Xfree3.6 and the steveh IIRC patched Mach64 server) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
