The overall performance. 16 MB. Compared to a 486. Miro videogarabbercard test showed lower transferspeed via adaptec 1542 SCSI card. The drive is a of an today incredible size, dmesg shows 3.300 transfer speed of the card. The mainboard came with some kind of a manual with horses. "P/I-P55TP4XE". Never had such a beast before. Maybe somebody knows what to do: The SCSI card has a floppy controller. The mainboard has a build in floppy controller, there is everything for IDE. What do I have to do to have a floppy. Currently I have "floppy" disabled in the bios, it boots ok. All data inside.... (PS.: Are there "floppiesdrives with FIFO" ?) One good side of the new board: No pnpcard problems at all, it didnt work on the 486. Sound, multimedia: what do I do to enable the "pca0" Audiodriver ? I think I have it in the kernel, dmesg | grep pca: pca0 on motherboard pca0: PC audio speaker driver But I cant make it run, found no man page covering the question: sh MAKEDEV ???????? . Etc pp....... I think I should be able to do some echo bla >/dev/audio. In Csoundland, it should be something like csound -odev/audio, hope it is a little bit faster than windoze multimedia.
