There is a standard, but the cheap modems typically don't follow it. They're typically USB "winmodems", ie. the DSP is done on the host, and the "modem" is just a codec and line interfacee. -- ... every activity meets with opposition, everyone who acts has his rivals and unfortunately opponents also.

I've scanned through the archives and found some stuff on earlier versions of XFree86, but nothing for the current release. I've also scanned the Matrox and XFree86 Xperts list, but found nothing that clarifies things (although there is a fair amount of conflicting information). I have downloaded the beta driver code from Matrox and tried building it, but the module io.c calls some functions with which I am unfamiliar. iopl, inl and outl are unfamiliar to me, so I'm unsure what to do to get this code to compile. (Most other stuff seems to be pretty straight-forward stuff.) Has anyone gotten this to work? Also, I see many references to the mga.ko kernel module. Is that now obsolete?

We have a handfull of the G450 cards, most of them doing dual-head service. We are using the XFree86-4 out of ports and this works pretty good. Dual head works fine. We have only two gripes: o DRI doesn't work out of the box. (I haven't had it working since 4.0.1) o The second head won't do DPMS. I've tried the suggestions from http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~eanholt/dri/ to get DRI working with the G45 and XFree86 4.1, but to no avail. A patch found on the Linux support forum at Matrox's site (http://matrox.com/mga/support/forum/agree.cfm) has been applied to the mga driver that you get from the CVS repository, and that does fix the DPMS on the second head problem.

It's the first time I contact with you, and I don't know the protocol. But the problem is simple: my ethernet pccard can hardly negotiate the medium, and it tries many times before managing it, lasting from just a minute to more than fifteen minutes (spuriously). Once the pccard "catch" the medium, it works normally. The problem is with initialization. It must be said that I firstly tested it with Windows Millenium, because that was the OS installed in my Dell Inspiron 4000. It worked normally, so I assumed it had to work the same with FreeBSD. A colleague told me that maybe "the error was testing the pccard with Windows Me", because it could write internal registers with different values from those suitable for FreeBSD. But the pccard is resetted when detected, so this should not be an argument. For the sake of completeness, here you have the default configuration of the Xircom ethernet 10/100 PCCARD for Windows Me: Parameter Default value Other values cable type autodetect coaxial, 10BT/100BTX, TP direct enable OFF ON dynamic link detect ON OFF early transmit ON OFF initialization delay none from 0 to 60 seconds line mode autodetect full-duplex, half-duplex line speed autodetect 10Mbps, 100Mbps line integrity ON OFF mode I/O memory mapped transmit buffer size 11k 1k, 2k, 3k, ..., 11k,12k, etc. The following lines were taken from dmesg directly: they reflect what the driver detects; also observe the last two messages pointing out the pccard reset; when trying to ping to some machine, the negotiation problem was detected and those messages appeared again: pccard: card inserted, slot 0 xe0 at port 0x240-0x24f iomem 0xd0000-0xd0fff irq 10 slot 0 on pccard0 xe0: Xircom CE3, bonding version 0x45, 100Mbps capable xe0: DingoID = 0x444b, RevisionID = 0x1, VendorID = 0 xe0: Ethernet address 00:10:a4:a3:6c:6a xe0: watchdog timeout; resetting card xe0: watchdog timeout; resetting card The colleague mentioned above has the same pccard and it works perfectly. He purchased it at the end of 1999, more or less, whereas I have purchased it two weeks ago. Could Xircom have changed the features of the chip? I would be very grateful if you could help me with this problem.

We have two Xircom RealPort 10/100 cards (CE3-10/100): one was purchased about 18 months ago, and the other one only some days ago. 2. Both cards are *identical*: same DingoID, RevisionID and VendorID. 3. Each card was tested under FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE on two Dell Inspiron laptops, models 3700 and 4000. 4. Also, we did the tests using two different Ethernet connections: to a hub (10 Mbps) and to a switch (100 Mbps half-duplex). 5. The old card works fine, but the new card shows a strange behavior, as explained in the original message: the media seems to be correctly reported by ifconfig(8), but a simple ping(8) does not work; instead, the driver resets the card again, and even once more, before the packets begin to flow. 6. The old card has been used *only* with FreeBSD. The new card was first used under Windows Millennium on the Inspiron 4000. 7. The version of the Xircom driver for Windows is 2.05; however, we did another test, installing an old version of the driver (1.75), and then the card showed a different behavior when the machine was rebooted with FreeBSD (in fact, it was worse). Then, we reinstalled the previous driver (2.05), and we came back to the original situation. From this test, we could infer that the Windows driver "touches" something in the card which survives the reset issued by the xe(4) driver. Hey, it's my hypothesis ;-) 8. We could test the old card with Windows and then with FreeBSD, but I don't like the risk of another card being corrupted by the Windows driver (if my hypothesis is correct). At least, now we have one card which works fine ;-) We are really interested in finding the cause of this problem, so any help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers, -- JMA ****** Jose M.

(DDS3 tape unit) It may have something to do with NFS mounts. It is not the NFS transfer rate that causes the problem (I hope), but the tape seems to timeout. I am also having problems with the fxp driver and timeouts. Doing the same tape from a Solaris 8 x86 box gives terrific results. What results did you expect from your DLT? .... "Jose M.
