FINALLY found it

I am careful of my language. I believe that I said exactly what I meant. I have corresponded with this list for several years now, and I don't believe I ever used the word in question before. If I used it now, it was carefully considered and deemed appropriate. Please go back in the thread and find out why I used it. Thank you. --doug At 11:43 03/30/2001 -0600, you wrote: >On Thursday 29 March 2001 21:25, Doug McGarrett wrote: >> JUST KEEP THAT SICK SHIT OFF THE LIST, PLEASE!!!!!!!!! > >If you said that phrase out loud then I wouldn't hold in my hand >what you have in your mouth!

PCMCIA Update?
by Timothy R.Butler 31 Mar '01

31 Mar '01

Hi everyone, Does anyone know if SuSE has a PCMCIA 3.1.25 RPM anywhere for SuSE 7.1? I'm trying to get a Linksys NIC working, and the maintainer of the PCMCIA package told me that the card works fine with this new version of PCMCIA. Any ideas?

Virus Scanning Software
by Just Another SuSE User 31 Mar '01

31 Mar '01

I have been given the go-ahead to replace our MS Exchange server with a SuSE based sendmail server (which is already in place, just forwarding to Exchange). Now users are just going to pop their mail from the SuSE box. However, I need virus checking done on the SuSE box. I was told McAfee has a product that does this, but it cannot scan attachments, only message bodies. Does anyone know of any Unix based products that can perform the functions of the Virus Scanning packages for MS Exchange? (Or can this be done with scripts and virus patterns?) Thankx, CC

Install Question
by Christopher W. Aiken 30 Mar '01

30 Mar '01

I installed SuSE 7.1 Professional on my home PC w/o any problems at all. So I take my CD's to the office and it is a NO GO!!! After the boot, I get the message that it is searching for Brail Display Devices then my screen goes blank and the machine just stops. No CD, floppy, or disk activity. After about 5 minutes I shutdown and start over with that same results. I tried the "boot floppy" and booting from CD 1. Same results. After viewing the initial screens it appears that during the hardward detection my scsi drives are not displayed. Could that be the problem? How do I tell it to load the aic7xxx module at the boot prompt? BTW... SuSE 7.0 had absolutly no problems setting up this same machine. -- Christopher W.

Netfinity won't run SuSE 7.1
by Maurice Volaski 30 Mar '01

30 Mar '01

Installing 7.1 with the 2.4 kernel on IBM Netfinity 4500R with a ServeRAID-3L adapter, I get as far as the 2nd CD when the system locks up. Doing the same with kernel 2.2.18 succeeds. Doing the same on a different server without the ServeRAID-3L succeeds. So it appears that the kernel 2.4 and the ServeRAID-3L adapter may not get along. IBM knows about a problem with 2.4 and SCSI: http://boudicca.tux.org/hypermail/linux-kernel/2001week02/1495.html (Their tech support apparently does not about this issue yet.) I don't know whether any patches released since 2.4 would fix this issue. But for now, it doesn't look like 2.4 is ready for all Netfinity machines. -- Maurice Volaski, mvolaski(a)aecom.yu.edu Computing Support, Rose F.

How do I get a Signature in KMail?
by Thomas Long 30 Mar '01

30 Mar '01

I am unable to generate signatures in messages I send with KMail (in KDE2.1 using SuSE 7.1). I have tried specifying a signature and also tried the signature file route. It just does not seem to work. Anyone have any suggestions? -Thomas Long tlong(a)billsoft.com

Problems with C :)
by patlidzan 30 Mar '01

30 Mar '01

I am facing with C for the first time so i have few problems with program ... I have 2 functions ( first should set pointer to the start of the line "N" n is parameter, second should switch those 2 lines) Can someone check and see where is the error or give me better solution... And can someone please explain me where is file pointer after fgets and after puts(fputs) ...I am trying few days without results :( void SetPointer(int n) //##################################################### //SET POINTER TO THE START OF THE LINE N //##################################################### { char temp[999]; int i; i=1; if (n==1) { fseek(izlaz,0,SEEK_SET); } else { fseek(izlaz,0,SEEK_SET); while (i<n) { fgets(temp,999,izlaz); i++; } } } void SwitchLines() { char UpLine[999],DownLine[999]; izlaz=fopen("C:\\out.txt","r+"); SetPointer(3); fgets(UpLine,999,izlaz); SetPointer(4); fgets(DownLine,999,izlaz); printf("%s",UpLine); printf("%s",DownLine); SetPointer(3); fprintf(izlaz,"%s",DownLine); <--- or maybe puts SetPointer(4); fprintf(izlaz,"%s",UpLine); } Basically, this is just test function, because i must write loop for switching: Line1 with LineN, line2 with Line(N-1) and so on... And i can't use one more file ... I have to do that in ONE file ... But i have problem right on the start with switching only 2 lines ... Thanks in advance,
