It is most often a uart problem. It happens when you have an external moden connected to a com port running to 16450 or less uart. If you have a 16550Afn or modern equivalent, then you have to up the fifo count where the interrupts occur to 14. The internal modems have the equivalent of a 16550 built in and don't have the problem for that reason. Somewhere above 9600, the interupt latency is such that the system can't respond and you get an overflow. My PC has the equivalent of a 16550 built onto the motherboard and the connection to the external modem is at 115,200 baud. This will handle a 56kb modem. You are supposed to have the DTE rate set to 4 times the DCE rate but 115,200 is as high as it goes on my computers.

Put the modem somewhere else (eg. on a PC), or get a better network connection where the I/O hardware sits on your ethernet.

NetBSD's `com' driver uses a split interrupt scheme to help this a little, and can do 56k on the Alpha pretty easily. However, above that, it still gets overruns due to the OSF/1 PALcode's interrupt scheme; all interrupts are routed to what is effectively one interrupt level in the PSL sense; there are actually two, but since you have no way of knowing what processor IRQ is routed to which IPL, and no way to program the routing yourself, you have to block both in order to block "I/O interrupts". -- Jason R.

The Linux folks seem to take over the interrupt hardware themselves; this is probably the only way to get any sort of decent performance, but I'm not sure how far-reaching the implications of this are. -- \\ The mind's the standard \\ Mike Smith \\ of the man. \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ -- Joseph Merrick \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-alpha Sun Sep 19 18: 5:44 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Received: from nimbus.skycache.com (nimbus.skycache.com [207.239.230.67]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7AE12158F2; Sun, 19 Sep 1999 18:04:54 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rharris@nimbus.skycache.com) Received: from localhost (rharris@localhost) by nimbus.skycache.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id VAA07632; Sun, 19 Sep 1999 21:04:53 -0400 (EDT) Date: Sun, 19 Sep 1999 21:04:53 -0400 (EDT) From: Rob Harris Reply-To: Rob Harris To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org, freebsd-questions@freebsd.org, developer@lists.mysql.com, mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: MySQL problems Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org 'lo all.

I presume you're referring to an Alphastation 200 4/233 (in which case it would be a good idea to say so). These systems require 72-pin FPM parity SIMMs, ie. not EDO, not ECC (although they will work with ECC parts). Any decent computer store should be able to get these for you, although they are becoming more expensive as they become less common. These are the same parts required by older PC systems that don't like EDO memory; this point may help jog your suppliers' memory. -- \\ The mind's the standard \\ Mike Smith \\ of the man. \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ -- Joseph Merrick \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-alpha Mon Sep 20 9:55: 4 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Received: from cgi.sstar.com (cgi.sstar.com [209.102.160.12]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id ADF241504D for ; Mon, 20 Sep 1999 09:54:58 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jim@cgi.sstar.com) Received: (from jim@localhost) by cgi.sstar.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA93720; Mon, 20 Sep 1999 11:54:44 -0500 (CDT) (envelope-from jim) From: Jim King Message-Id: <199909201654.LAA93720@cgi.sstar.com> Subject: Re: True Parity memory To: wwoods@cybcon.com, freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 20 Sep 1999 11:54:44 -0500 (CDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL61 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org At 09:04 AM 9/20/1999 -0700, wwoods@cybcon.com wrote: >I have a DEC 200 4/233 and I understand it will only use "True Parity" >memory, is this the case?

"True parity" means it really has the extra memory chip to store the parity; some SIMMs use "logic parity", which just calculates a parity bit when the memory is read. Crucial (aka Micron) has this stuff; http://www.crucial.com. Their prices are somewhat high. Somebody on the list a while back reported that Mcglen is a good place to get parity memory; http://www.mcglen.com. Their prices sound a lot better than Crucial. And of course there's always eBay, Onsale, etc. The four 16 MB SIMMs in my AS200 4/233 came from Onsale.

I haven't seen this before. I would guess software but you have a fairly recent SRM version. I had to add this calibration code since SRM reports an inaccurate clock frequency for some machines, causing noticable clock drift. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.

Probably, you have grabbed a package built for -current, not for 3.3, which means you go back and refetch the right one, but I am not sure what version of libncurses was in 3.3. > > Ideas? > > This is a fresh install > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include C programming, Electronics, 213 Lakeside Dr. Apt.
