Transfers interrupted when uploading
Dear all, I have a very nasty problem: I can't upload files from my machine. I'm connected to the Internet via an ordinary dialup (ppp). All goes smooth, I can navigate and work remotely via telnet or ssh. I'm running a potato 2.2r0 on a laptop. Problems arise when I try to serve files by either uploading them directly via ssh or ftp towards some remote, or by connecting to a remote and try to retrieve files from my machine. What happens is that after the first few Kb's, the transfer hangs and I can only disconnect by hanging up. Note that SMALL, ascii tranfers end succesfully. This is an example of what /var/log/messages tells me in one case where I was trying from a remote to log into my machine and get files via ftp: -- Jun 24 19:25:46 paperoga wu-ftpd[294]: FTP LOGIN FROM pippo.pluto.paperoga.it [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] pippo Jun 24 19:29:05 paperoga pppd[254]: No response to 4 echo-requests Jun 24 19:29:05 paperoga pppd[254]: Serial link appears to be disconnected.

(are there other logs which may tell me more?) Do I have to give away my monster-laptop to my newborn to amuse himself? Thanks very much.

Re: Transfers interrupted when uploading
It seems my problem is in the buffer of the serial getting an overflow of data it can't handle. How could I fix this? It's a PCMCIA modem, and the hardware flow control won't work. Disabling it and enabling the software one, Xon/Xoff, solves partially the problem. Partially, because soetimes the transfer freezes as with the hardware flow control. So, it's not a stable solution. I could maybe just buy a new one. But I'd like to know if the problem is really the PCMCIA, in which case buying a new one is sensible, or if it's some other hardware in my laptop which will make the same problem appear regardless which modem I slot in.

Re: installing on laptop
You can try with a PLIP installation, if you have another linux box anywhere at hand to mount the CDROM from. See the PLIP-INSTALL mini-HOWTO, very well written. ciao Alberto -/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/ Alberto Bigazzi, PhD.

SiS 630 video adapter
Hi all, I'm just about to buy a laptop (Ideaprogress, italian brand distributing a Korean one), but It looks as if it has some problems with the video card. It's a SiS 630s. Does anybody have any experience with this card? Thanks, Alberto. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
