I'm having some trouble here - need some help! I've just bought a TE405p (32-bit 5V), but cannot get it working in a dell 6450. The dell has (from tech specs) "three peer PCI buses: two 64-bit buses and one 32-bit bus Expansion slots seven hot-pluggable PCI slots (two 64-bit/66 MHz, four 64-bit/33 MHz, and one 32-bit/33 MHz)" I cannot get the card working in any of the slots. When I power the server up, the digium card blinks red for a second, and the dell pci light goes out. However, if I plug it into a standard dell dimension, I get the 4 channels flashing red when I power the machine up. My understanding of the pci bus is (obviously) limited - why doesn't the card work in the server ? Should I have bought the te410p instead ? Help! Julian.
If the card plugs into the slot then it's not a power (3.3v/5v) issue as the cards are physically different. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk [mailto:asterisk@dotr.com] Sent: 09 July 2004 13:01 To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Dell 6450 / TE405p I'm having some trouble here - need some help!

Well, you should see an entry like this: Bus 0, device 11, function 0: Communication controller: PCI device 10ee:0314 (Xilinx Corporation) (rev 1). IRQ 5. Master Capable. Latency=64. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xda001000 [0xda00107f]. Any curious messages in dmesg when the machine is booted, any settings in the bios related to PCI? At least from this point you can discount any zaptel issues as this shows regardless of whether zaptel is loaded or not.
