ftl_cs - Flash Translation Layer driver for PCMCIA memory cards
SYNOPSIS
insmod ftl_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [major_dev=n]
DESCRIPTION
Flash memory devices typically need to be erased before they are written, and most flash devices can only be erased on large block bound-
aries like 64K or 128K. The Flash Translation Layer driver, ftl_cs, implements a sort of virtual sector-addressable block device that
hides the details of erase operations. Using the FTL driver, a flash memory card can be treated as an ordinary block device.
The ftl_cs driver allocates a major device number when it is loaded. Minor device numbers have a bitwise layout of 'dddrrppp'. 'ddd' is
the device number, with one card counting as one device. 'rr' is the common-memory region number, generally 0. And 'ppp' selects a logi-
cal partition within the FTL region.
The default configuration script for FTL devices will create a block device with the name of the form '/dev/ftl{d}c{r}', where '{d}' is the
device number and '{r}' is the region number, that spans the entire FTL region. It also creates devices '/dev/ftl{d}c{r}p[1-4]' pointing
to partitions 1 through 4 within this FTL region.
An FTL region must be formatted before use. The formatting utility, ftl_format, needs to write to the corresponding raw memory device
rather than the FTL device interface.
PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n
Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero
value enables debugging.
major_dev=n
Selects the major device number to allocate for FTL devices. The default is to pick any available major number.

axnet_cs - Asix AX88190 chipset PCMCIA Ethernet Driver
SYNOPSIS
insmod axnet_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [irq_list=i,j,...]
DESCRIPTION
Axnet_cs is a driver for PCMCIA ethernet cards based on the Asix AX88190 chipset. These cards are mostly NE2000 compatible but have sev-
eral bugs that are sufficiently tricky to work around that a separate driver was deemed necessary. When this driver is bound to a card, it
allocates the next available ethernet device (eth0..eth#). This device name will be reported in the kernel log file, and passed on to
cardmgr(8).
PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n
Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero
value enables debugging.
irq_list=i,j,...
Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver.
DIAGNOSTICS
axnet_cs: this is not an AX88190 card!
Indicates that this card is probably a normal NE2000 compatible card, which requires the pcnet_cs driver.
eth#: interrupt(s) dropped!
Indicates that the driver did not receive an interrupt notification for some reason. The driver will poll the card (with a signifi-
cant performance penalty) if the problem persists. The most likely cause is an interrupt conflict and/or host bridge configuration
problem.

I am completely new to Unix and have a quick question...
I have a client that wants me to develop Flash Commercials and Presentations. My question is, does the Linux Flash Player work on the Unix platform?
Thanks in advance for your responses! (1 Reply)

Hi !
Does anyone knows if is there any clone of Macromedia Flash for UNIX systems ? or anything else that can create .swf files...
Thanks ! (2 Replies)
Hey everyone! I've got a pretty big problem with our application that we're releasing in a couple weeks. The app is developed with Flash and Java, and the problem is that the Flash Player gobbles up OS memory and then never releases it back to the OS...it just keeps gobbling it up getting larger...

I am going to build a flash archive on a v490 and put it on 3 890's I have coming in.
Someone had mentioned to me that they thought I might have a problem booting, something about the wrong boot block.
Has anyone heard this before , or do you think I would have any other issues.

I have a blade 6000 chassis with a T6340 blade. The blade took a dump and I am trying to rebuild it with a Flash Archive. I am using net boot from an E2900 and the flash is located on a an array that is attached to my v245 management server. I can net boot and I can select flash install. When I put... (1 Reply)
