Through no fault of the XInside folks the XInside server is often times *worse* that the XFr3386 server when it comes to support for 'laptop' video drivers when doing SVGA modes (anything greater than 640x480). XInside intentionally disables higher res modes in their driver, so you can't even try out higher modes. However, you *can* destroy compenents with XFree86 trying to get higher modes than your hardware will allow, so for a cmmercial company it's better to not blow-up stuff than to allow people pushing it to the edge. :) Nate From owner-freebsd-hardware Tue Oct 29 09:28:35 1996 Return-Path: owner-hardware Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id JAA10504 for hardware-outgoing; Tue, 29 Oct 1996 09:28:35 -0800 (PST) Received: from rocky.mt.sri.com (rocky.mt.sri.com [206.127.76.100]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id JAA10498 for ; Tue, 29 Oct 1996 09:28:31 -0800 (PST) Received: (from nate@localhost) by rocky.mt.sri.com (8.7.5/8.7.3) id KAA24176; Tue, 29 Oct 1996 10:28:14 -0700 (MST) Date: Tue, 29 Oct 1996 10:28:14 -0700 (MST) Message-Id: <199610291728.KAA24176@rocky.mt.sri.com> From: Nate Williams To: Graham Breach Cc: hardware@freebsd.org (hardware) Subject: Re: Scanners In-Reply-To: <199610291554.PAA13411@fgate.flevel.co.uk> References: <199610291554.PAA13411@fgate.flevel.co.uk> Sender: owner-hardware@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk > Are there any FreeBSD drivers for flatbed or page scanners in existence?

If so how? All ports on the ZYNX refuse to talk after bootup. I have the following cards in a Pentium system * PCI S3 video card as vga0 * PCI SMC8432BT ethernet card as de0 * ZNYX 346 4 port ethernet card as de1 de2 de3 de4 One thing I notice is that the following IRQs are assigned: * vga0 int a irq 9 * de0 int a irq 5 * de1 int a irq 11 * de2 int a irq 9 * de3 int a irq 5 * de4 int a irq 12 After bootup I can use de0, but de1..4 refuse to work. I've tried ifconfiging the interface to use link0, link1 and link2 but still no luck. All ethernet ports will eventually talk at 10MBits.

The BOCA is not anything very complicated (it doesn't have the i960 serial processer) or fast, but if all you are going to do is hook VT100 terminals to it, the BOCA should work fine. There is sone twkeking that needs to be done to the kernel configuration file that is fairly simple also. Toby Brinck On Wed, 23 Oct 1996, Matthew A.

I need something in the neighborhood of 2Gb (or more) per tape and something that can be use under both FreeBSD and Windows NT (and conceivably, occasionally, Win95 or Win3.1 or Linux). I'm assuming that means sticking with a SCSI device. Given that, I assume it would come down to a choice between a 4mm DAT drive and one of the newer "Travan" drives (e.g. Seagate Tapestor 8000 TR-4) with a SCSI interface. It seems like the DAT drives are more expensive for the drive (~ $500 and up ??) and the others are in the $350 range, more or less, if I remember my WWW surfing session from last night. But the tapes for a DAT drive are less than $10 each and the others are over $20. I'm kinda figuring that I should just take the hit in upfront cost for the lower media cost over the lifetime of the drive. So, does anyone have any recommendations on good places to find an inexpensive (my home computer budget is rather strained these days) DAT drive? Or any other ideas/suggestions? Hmmm...thru http://www.netbuyer.com, I just ran across a Seagate MS 4000R-SB 4Gb DAT drive with prices varying from $299 to $509 for the "internal" drive. Has anyone heard of that model?

Is it a PCI thing, or an SMP thing that IRQ's geater than >15 are present? I was wondering if anyone would notice that! Yes it is correct, its an APIC thing (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller). The Intel MP spec calls for the use of APICs in place of the old 8259. Each IO APIC handles up to 24 INTs, the GA586DX uses 21 of these INTS: 16 ISA, 4 PCI, and an SMI hook. I also have an SMC PCI nic card happily running @ IRQ18. >As a happy (?) owner, how would you rate this board? So far I am very happy. I have never "benchmarked" it but Tom's hardware page likes it. From my point of view its an "A" since it seems to correctly impliment the MP spec. I also like the integrated 2940UW, saves a PCI slot, plus subtract street price of a 2950UW and the board costs about $150 (current street price $349). I like the ATX form-factor, though finding a good case is hard (I haven't yet!). It appears to be rock-solid, but since I use it exclusively for SMP development it rairly gets to see uptimes of more than a day (cause I'm always restarting new kernels). Things I don't like: bios won't let me assign specific INTs to PCI slots. bios thinks my stealth64 card is occupying a PCI INT.
