Omnibook XE3 - modem and LAN not working
I have an Omnibook XE3 notebook.
A LILO dual boot with MS Windows 98 and Linux SuSE 7.1.
Due to an IRQ conflict neither the integrated modem nor the integrated LAN card are working (I'm using a 2.4 kernel).
With windows everything works fine.
Can anyone help me to setup Linux in order to solve these conflicts?
Is there any forum dedicated to Linux on Notebooks?
Thanks
Mirto

Re: Omnibook XE3 - modem and LAN not working
Mirto, I saw such a site the other day when I was researching which notebook systems were supported by linux:
http://mobilix.org/
might be a good place to start your research.
Best regards,
Mark

Re: Omnibook XE3 - modem and LAN not working
Hi,
Could you please post the result of :
cat /proc/ioports
cat /proc/interrupts
cat /proc/pci
Did you enable PCI IRQ sharing in your Linux Kernel configuration ? Please check option "CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ" in /usr/src/linux/.config before building your linux 2.4 kernel.
Did you disable the "PnP O/S" in BIOS ? Although Linux supports PnP, sometimes it works better if the BIOS does initialization of peripherals (IRQ, I/O ports) before Linux boots. Moreover, for some peripherals you may have to add "append ..." lines in /etc/lilo.conf to force I/O port and IRQ values, or if they are compiled as modules -> check /etc/modules.conf.
Good luck
Kodjo
