Re: Linux vs. DOS

I tried manually entering as you suggest and what is happening is I get a
"segmentation fault" error message when I enter the line "insmod -v
/usr/local/nist/emc/plat/rtlinux_09J/lib/steppermod.o
SHMEM_BASE_ADDRESS=0x3F00000 PARPORT_IO_ADDRESS=0x378"
Remember that if your machine has other than 64MB of RAM you'll need to
change the 0x3F00000 to match your system:

0x0F00000 for 16MB systems
0x1F00000 for 32MB systems
0x2F00000 for 48MB systems
0x3F00000 for 64MB systems
0x4F00000 for 80MB systems
0x5F00000 for 96MB systems
0x6F00000 for 112MB systems
0x7F00000 for 128MB systems
etc...

Note: The table of values I provided in a previous post was WRONG with
respect to 16MB and 32MB systems!

If I do a lsmod I see steppermod as used by [uninitialized] and stl_sched
as
used by steppermod just like from the script.
You'll need to rmmod them to try again, and if you can't get them to go
away you'll need to reboot to start over.

I have to do some work around the house to keep the better half happy,
but
if you will be at the number listed in your message in the early evening
I
will try giving you a call.
In between your messages I've been outside mowing, trimming, and shoveling
mulch, so I know what you mean. My wife also likes steamed crabs so I might
run out get her a dozen, although on Memorial Day they're going to gig me
for $20/dozen for smalls (should be $8-$12/dozen here in Baltimore on a
regular day).


Thanks,

Matt
