Hello, I'm a Linux newbe. I've a Suse 6.2 and iŽm installing all the hardware and have problems with my isa Sound Blaster 16 bit and isa modem Diamond Supraexpress 33.6i. I think that I can configure them with the isapnp utility but i canŽt find whatŽs the configuration file of both devices. Suse has found the modem but doesnŽt works properly. The pppd utility can comunicate with it but at connection with "AT" waits a lot of time for the "OK" and the modem doesnŽt send it. Can you help me, please? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2314.1000" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello, I'm a Linux newbe.

Browse here and see if your hardware is supported by Linux in general and SuSE in particular. http://cdb.suse.de/cgi-bin/scdb?HTML=ENGLISH/cdb_listtemplates/menu.htm&LANG=ENGLISH It may be that your modem is a WinModem and not usable under any other OS except WinXX.

The best way to figure this out is: go into Windos and make a note of the resources (IRQ, base DMA) that Windos uses for your modem/soundcard. Then go to your favourite OS and do a 'pnpdump > isapnp.conf' (I think the isapnp tools must be run as root, but I can't check from here). Open the isapnp.conf file with an editor and un-comment the lines with the correct configuration statements for your hardware. Don't forget to uncomment the "ACT Y" tag at the end. Test the configuration you specified by running 'isapnp isapnp.conf' from the command line (as root). It usually takes some tweaking to get things right. If it's right then put the pnpconf file in the /etc directory and specify (in YaST) to run isapnp at boot time. Also, you could have a look at the man pages for ppdump, isapnp and isapnp.conf (if I remember the names correctly). Hey, anybody out there willing to share his Soundblaster config with this newbie :) Must be dozens of them around!

Are your serial ports configured correctly? This can be checked with the setserial program ('man setserial').

Or even better: have a look at THE winmodem incompatibility site: http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html.

Working with Unix for some years I recently switched jobs and was confronted with a pre-installed Windows NT on my computer. A friend installed SuSE 6.3 for me and I am a happy user. However, the helpdesk does not support SuSE, only Redhat (and this is a 1200-people scientific institute!). My problem is that my soundcard does not work under Linux (it works under NT). As I was given this machine I looked into NT to tell me what I have. It says: Audio for ESS AudioDrive ES1938/1941/1946 Version 4.05.21. I therefore assume I should use the esssolo1.o module. I would also like to know the resources NT uses, but (having no Windows/NT experience) I have not been able to find these (often I get 'default' when I ask for certain settings). Any help is appreciated. Jorn Martijn van den Burg wrote:

IIRC the information you're looking for should be in the Control Panel (don't know if that's the correct name, in German it's `Systemsteuerung'). Double click the multimedia icon.

And there is the system analysis thing, tells you used ioports, irq's, dma's. Again I could find it only in the german version. ;-( roughly Start-Programs->something like "system tools" (It's a folder)-> system monitor. Anyway, if you happen to find the event log (<grin>) it's one of the other programs there. Don't format your harddrive with the disk manager. It isn't the disk manager, I can tell.... ;-) Juergen -- =========================================== __ _ Juergen Braukmann juergen.braukmann@gmx.de| -o)/ / (_)__ __ ____ __ Tel: 0201-743648 dk4jb@db0qs.#nrw.deu.eu | /\\ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / ===========================================_\_v __/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

For English editions in addition to the above: Start-Programs-Administrative Tools-Windows NT Diagnostics. Why someone would ask a pure NT question here is beyond. I think I'll go ask an NT mailing list why I haven't been able to use FreeBSD's Boot Easy to boot my Linux partition. :-) I wonder if anybody will be able to help.

No, but you can probably get *lots* of advice about what to do when Windows NT bluescreens at bootup: fdisk -> format c: /u -> ntsetup If you can't guess, I had *lots* of practice at work today ;) Cheers, Dennis "Custard pies are a sort of esperanto: a universal language." --Noel Godin -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

No, the original question was about a soundcard and how to find it's settings in NT were it is working (opposed to linux). It's a variant of the "look in your 95 Setup and note IRQ DMA and IO and transfer it to Linux" Answer. ;-) Juergen -- =========================================== __ _ Juergen Braukmann juergen.braukmann@gmx.de| -o)/ / (_)__ __ ____ __ Tel: 0201-743648 dk4jb@db0qs.#nrw.deu.eu | /\\ /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / ===========================================_\_v __/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
