compaq v2000 working with correct boot options and compaq r4000 still SLOWWW
by Jerry Geis 20 Dec '05

20 Dec '05

Hi, I have a v2000 compaq laptop. The realtek network and USB on this machine was not working. After adding to grub.conf "acpi=off apci=off noacpi noapic" the v2000 realtek started working and the USB worked fine... Fantastic! So I thought I would try those same options on my r4000 laptop. they had no effect.... This AMD turion 64 4000+ rating laptop is still running SLOWWW... /proc/cpuinfo has the cpu Mhz running at 2393 below is my dmesg output for the r4000. There is a line talking about "Your time source seems to be instable or some driver is hogging interupts" that seems bad to me but not sure what to do about it . Any further suggestions would be great.

The links ARE there, but they are K* links, not S* links. I should see output showing the service shutting down when I go from 4 to 3. My main point was that your description of the shutdown process does not seem to be accurate. Based on reading the 'rc' script, the runlevel switch happens first and then rc runs all scripts from the new runlevel directory. If I switch from level 4 to level 3, the system will switch the runlevel to 3 and then run the kill scripts and startup scripts from the rc3.d directory. The original problem has been solved. The script was not setting it's lock file properly, so it was being skipped when rc ran the kill scripts. Now that I've fixed that problem, I see the shutdown messages from the script as expected. -- Bowie

Install is on PCMCIA CDrom so too is LAN card
by Robert Moskowitz 20 Dec '05

20 Dec '05

How do I get the PCMCIA driver(s) to load initially? This whole string of questions on this install come from using a PCMCIA CDrom. The system boots from the CD, but then the install does not have a driver. If I have it select install method, I see a Future Domain PCMCIA SCSI driver. If I select that, I still cannot load of my CDrom, but if I select HTTP it discovers my LAN card. But when I select my LAN card, the link lights do not come up. Oh, the LAN card is a venerable 3C574 10/100. Can I press F2 then enter something like: Linux install PCMCIA ?????? Thank you for all of your help. Barrs Law of Recursive futility If you're smart enough to use one of these.... .....you can probably manage without one!
