[S.u.S.E. Linux] Installation problems
by domlife＠domlife.com 08 Jun '98

08 Jun '98

1. Linux 5.2 is base-installed, under default package configuration plus components from 'n' (network) package set. 2. Boot looks fine. named is started (although I am not sure I set up anything for that expllicitly, probably under 'portmap' daemon) 3. eth0 is set up and works fine. 4. ppp0 is set up, both local and remote IP are 0.0.0.0 5. local ping works fine (ovr the LAN segment subnet). Now is the big one. 6. ping to an outside IP returns "Network is unreachable" Log of /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-up <provider> returns no errors and shoes 2 IPs assigned (local/remote). That is all I know. my best e-mail address: vicco(a)domlife.com (disregard the one in the header, if different) Looking forward very much for your reply.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Re:Permission denied loading applix
by alfiesty＠chaffee.net 04 Jun '98

04 Jun '98

Since no answers to my problem loading applix seemed to be forthcoming from this group, I started searching the RedHat archive. I finally found a message stating that the problen was caused by mounting the CD with the "user" parameter. I edited this out of "fstab", re-mounted the CDrom, and the installation of applix worked. WHY? What changes will this cause? Why does Yast put it in "fstab"? Please, o guru's, instruct this Clueless Newbie!

[S.u.S.E. Linux] General Protection error

I'm getting a very regular General Protection error, on the following system ( set up to be a mail and www server runing X ). I've reformated and reinstalled twice, with more limited package selection each time. No difference was noted. MotherBoard : ABIT LX6 CPU : Pentium II 233Mhz Memory : 64 Meg SDRAM Hard Drive : ATAPI IDE Mitsumi 4gig CD-ROM : Mitsumi 24x EIDE ( set as slave ) Video Card : Matrox Millenium (MGA) Network Card : SMC8432T EtherPower PCI Mouse : PS/2 Keyboard : Standard 101 key OS : SUSE LINUX 5.1 December 1997 installed from CD-ROM There are no other devices. I do have the i/o devices ( Keyboard, Monitor, Mouse ) connected to a Belkin omniview 4 port electronic switch. After every few hours, the system gets semi locked. It responds to <alt><Function key> commands, but not to <cntrl><alt><del>. <enter> at any screen, except login prompt gives the following. # general protection error: 0000 cpu : 0 eip : 0010:[<00124c207>] eflags : 00010216 eax: 724f2f6c ebx: 00000302 ecx: 0346cd90 edx: 0000020a esi: 00000302 edi: 00000108 ebp: 00000400 esp: 00851e14 ds: 0018 es: 0018 fs: 002b gs: 002b ss: 0018 Process bash ( pid: 5668, processnr :38 stackpage:08150000 Stack: 0000032b 03F1030 00000400 0000023B 00000237 0000013A 0012545E 00000301 0000023b 000004000 0000023b 03F1CC38 001d86fc 0000023b 0000001 0015BE8 00000301 0000023B 000004000 0000000000000007 03C08000 00000 23B 00000400 CALL TRACE : [<0012545E7>] [<0014BEA87>] [<0015CWFB7>] [<001115CBC8>] [< MORE SIMILAR LINES>] CODE : 39 38 75 84 66 39 58 04 75 1E 39 68 20 74 22 56 E8 77 F9 FF #################################### Laszlo -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Hello everybody! I'm running suse5.1 for some time now and just realised that my ksh does not let me have the selected keytable. I have the correct one in vi and bash right now <shift><3> = '§' but in the shell itself I get the default from the kernel or so, which is <shift><3> = ''' . dumpkeys says I have the right keytable I can use loadkeys and xmodmap with no errors, but in shell mode it remains the same. Even dragging a '§' and dropping in an xterm leads to ''' ??? I have a file-name beginning with '§' as fist character and I think if I want to delete it I'll have to do something like rm -i * and type a few 'n''s and once 'y'. It's not only the <shift><3> key, so I want to change it. (no I don't want to switch to bash forever) please help arnulf -- know my poetry? - c...k -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
