Multiple NICs on Umax S900

2004-09-10 Thread Paul Mullen
I've tried in vain for some time now to get my old dual-proc SuperMac S900 to work properly with more than the OEM 10 Mb NIC installed. I've had relatively little difficulty with 'unstable' on this box. It successfully boots either 2.4 or 2.6 kernels. Networking fails in various ways when I install

Airport Monitor Mode Patches

2004-05-14 Thread Paul Mullen
What's the current status of the monitor-mode patches for the Airport (older 802.11b-only cards) kernel module? Six months ago I was able to apply a patch posted in July '03 by Jens Schmalzing to the 2.4.23-benh tree, but with partial success. The resulting kernel compiled fine and monitor mode wor

Floppy Issues with Kernel 2.6 Build on Umax S900

2004-04-27 Thread Paul Mullen
