Tech Bulletin: Workstation Shell Interrupt and Memory Conflict
NOVELL TECHNICAL BULLETIN
TITLE: Workstation Shell Interrupt and Memory Conflict
DOCUMENT ID: TB.P.173
DATE: 1/28/87
PRODUCT: NetWare
PRODUCT VERSION:
SUPERSEDES: NA
SYMPTOM: NA
ISSUE/PROBLEM
We have discovered two potential conflicts between workstation shells and
IBM Enhanced Graphics Adapter (EGA) cards installed in workstations. The
conflicts apply to the following software releases:
Advanced NetWare 68 V2.0
Advanced NetWare 86 V2.0
Advanced NetWare 286 V2.0
Advanced NetWare 286A V2.0
Advanced NetWare 68 V2.0a
Advanced NetWare 86 V2.0a
Advanced NetWare 286 V2.0a
Advanced NetWare 286A V2.0a
Advanced NetWare 68 V2.01
SFT NetWare 286 V2.0a
SFT NetWare 286A V2.0a
Advanced NetWare 286 V1.02
Advanced NetWare 286A V1.02
POTENTIAL INTERRUPT CONFLICT -- The potential for conflict is due to the
fact that the workstation shell may use IRQ 2 (depending on the LAN
hardware) and the EGA software is also configurable to IRQ 2.
POTENTIAL MEMORY CONFLICT -- The potential for conflict is due to the
fact that the workstation shell sets up a memory buffer at D000:0 for
some network types and the EGA card can also allocate memory at D000:0.
The potential conflicts apply to the following networks:
Network IRQ ROM RAM buffer at:
STANDARD MICROSYSTEMS ARCNET* 2 D000
ALLEN-BRADLEY VISTALAN/PC 2 D000
AT&T STARLAN 2 C000
INTELLIGENT NIC None D000
GENERIC NET BIOS 2
3 COM ETHERLINK PLUS 2 None
PROTEON PRONET 2 Disabled None
GATEWAY G/NET None 0D000
ORCHID PCNET 2
IBM PC NETWORK 2
NESTAR 2 D200:0
(for 1000h)
IBM PC CLUSTER 3 D000:0
IBM TOKEN-RING 2 CC00 and D800
NOVELL RX-NET 2 D000:0
