I have a Dell Inspiron 4000 that I am using to run Redhat Linux 7.1.
This machine had 128Mb of RAM in it, and I upgraded to 512Mb.
Since this, the PCMCIA cards have disappeared from the system running under Linux, although they still work under windows and the file "/var/lib/pcmcia/stab" only contains:
but another machine we have with the same cards shows:
If we take the memory out and use anything less than 512Mb the cards will work again, but not when 512Mb is installed, despite the fact that the BIOS and motherboard of this computer is supposed to handle this amount.
Is there any special method to allow this to work with 512Mb, without having to reinstall?
Can someone tell me what the following means? We have a v440 running Solaris 9. What do the patterns actually mean?

I have worked with Qlogic (Sun) fiber cards a lot and with Emulex fiber cards only a little. Here is the scenario: I have a Sun 490 with 3 Emulex cards in it. A pair are for the 6120 array that is attached, the other is a direct attach so our SAN for Veritas Netbackup to back up the system.I... (0 Replies)
Dear All
I would Like to know that if suppose c1t0d0 is of 72 gb hard disk and system boot from this hard disk and c1t1d0 is of 147gb hard disk. Can we implement hardware raid (Mirror) between these two hard disks of different capacity if raid crontroller is present in the server
Kind regards (4 Replies)

Hi there. I have an old laptop Toshiba Tecra 510 (P1, 147MB RAM, 30GB HDD) and I installed FreeBSD 7.2.
For networking I have a PCMCIA card for wired network. The problem is that I cannot start and run PCMCIA

First of all it's shut down 60 second after power on and write on console :
SC Alert: Correct SCC not replaced - shutting managed system down!
This is cured by moving out battery from ALOM card.
Now server start to loop during the testing.
That's on the console:

cbb
CARDBUS(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual CARDBUS(4)NAME
cardbus, cardslot, cbb -- CardBus driver
SYNOPSIS
cbb* at pci? dev? function ?
cardslot* at cbb?
cardbus* at cardslot?
pcmcia* at cardslot?
XX* at cardbus? function ?
DESCRIPTION
NetBSD provides machine-independent bus support and drivers for CardBus devices.
The cbb device represents the CardBus controller. Each controller has a number of slots, represented by the cardslot devices. A slot can
have either a CardBus card or a PCMCIA card, which are attached with the cardbus or pcmcia devices, respectively.
SUPPORTED DEVICES
NetBSD includes the following machine-independent CardBus drivers, sorted by function and driver name:
Network interfaces
ath Atheros 5210/5211/5212 802.11
atw ADMtek ADM8211 (802.11)

ehci Enhanced Host Controller (2.0)
ohci Open Host Controller
uhci Universal Host Controller
IEEE1394 controllers
fwohci OHCI controller
Disk and tape controllers
siisata Silicon Image SATA-II controllers.
DIAGNOSTICS
cbb devices may not be properly handled by the system BIOS on i386-family systems. If, on an i386-family system, the cbb driver reports
cbb0: NOT USED because of unconfigured interrupt
then enabling
options PCI_ADDR_FIXUP
options PCI_BUS_FIXUP
options PCI_INTR_FIXUP
or (if ACPI is in use)
options PCI_INTR_FIXUP_DISABLED
in the kernel configuration might be of use.

The cardbus driver appeared in NetBSD 1.5.
BUGS
Memory space conflicts
NetBSD maps memory on Cardbus and PCMCIA cards in order to access the cards (including reading CIS tuples on PCMCIA cards) and access the
devices using the RBUS abstraction. When the mapping does not work, PCMCIA cards are typically ignored on insert, and Cardbus cards are rec-
ognized but nonfunctional. On i386, the kernel has a heuristic to choose a memory address for mapping, defaulting to 1 GB, but choosing 0.5
GB on machines with less than 192 MB RAM and 2 GB on machines with more than 1 GB of RAM. The intent is to use an address that is larger
than available RAM, but low enough to work; some systems seem to have trouble with addresses requiring more than 20 address lines. On i386,
the following kernel configuration line disables the heuristics and forces Cardbus memory space to be mapped at 512M; this value makes Card-
bus support (including PCMCIA attachment under a cbb) work on some notebook models, including the IBM Thinkpad 600E (2645-4AU) and the Compaq
ARMADA M700:
options RBUS_MIN_START="0x20000000"
