Re: [S.u.S.E. Linux] YaST is being very annoying!
by pbleser＠prov-liege.be 30 Mar '98

Well, it tells the init daemon which runlevel it should switch to... The init daemon is one of the most (let's say "the most") important daemon in a Unix system... Now, what's a runlevel ? To keep it simple, here are some usual runlevels: 0: halt S: single user, no network 1: multi-user, no network 2: multi-user, with network 3: with xdm 6: reboot So, root# init 1; init 2 tells the init daemon to switch to runlevel 1 (many users, no network) and then switch to level 2 (many users, with network) again... There are some directories (/sbin/init.d/rc.* where * is S,1,2,...) that contain symbolic links (see "man ln") to scripts that (mostly) launch and kill daemons (web server, NFS daemons, Samba, ...), set up quotas, ... When you switch from 2 to 1, init will run all the scripts contained in /sbin/init.d/rc.2 with the "stop" parameter. This will cause all network daemons (say "services" if you're used to NT) to stop. When switching back from 1 to 2, all scripts in /sbin/init.d/rc.2 will be run by init with the "start" parameter... and they'll all be fired up again ! I hope this made it a little clearer to you ;-) There are NO dumb questions...

You've got some good midi-players that come with the kde, included with the SuSE distribution. Good luck. P.D.One question is: is it worth to use KDE? It hangs many times. Perhaps it's because it's a beta release. I don't know.
