[S.u.S.E. Linux] Please use appropriate subject lines in your postings

One humble request. Besides posting in ASCII (already discussed by others) please use appropriate subject lines so as to help others sort out threads. Lately, I have noticed that some of the message contents and the subject line have little in common. Probably, because somewhere down the line the topic of the discussion was changed. If such is the case then please post it with a new subject line. Thanks for your time.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Error message when KDE loads
by pmoon＠mindspring.com 30 Jun '98

30 Jun '98

Hello again, I wanted to ask if anyone has seen or has some sugestions to resolve the following error. Could not find mime type application x-tbz in opt/kde/share/applnk/utilities/kzip.kdelnk This appears in a small dialog box on boot of X / KDE .. It doesn't stop me from running after dismissing it with the ok button. However I didn't have this before. Also I can not run the program "mail" from the command line now. I am sure it is because I removed an application but I do not know which one. Thanks again, Perry - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Boot Disk don't!
by pmoon＠mindspring.com 30 Jun '98

30 Jun '98

Hi people, I first want to say thanks for all the good information that comes out in this list. I replaced the linux source package (de-installed, reinstalled) with the lx-suse source package and reconfigured / recompiled my kernel to support an AWE 64 card. Post this, I managed to frag my boot floppy and since then, have not been able to create a boot floppy that will get me into my root system successfully. I have been getting in with the S.u.S.E. install disk and CD... I was always successful in the past week with a boot floppy created by YAST / sys admin / create boot disk ... However now with a disk created in the same way, I get into the boot start load of my root file system on /dev/sdb1 and all hardware is recognized and config'd as normal, then right after the nic is recognized I hang at: VFS mounted extfs2 ect. ect. ect. (or something like this) And that is all she wrote! I have to go back in with the install disk again.. I saw someone mentioned removing LINEAR from the LILO.CONF file with regard to another boot problem posted here. I will try that next when I leave here... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. Perry Moon Tampa, Florida - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] System hangs on floppy boot
by pmoon＠mindspring.com 30 Jun '98

30 Jun '98

Hi guys, It's me again, I just wanted to clarify a bit. I am having trouble making a boot floppy that will get me into my installed system. I had one that was working fine, but I screwed it up. I am able to get into my install using the install floppy from SuSE. With the disk I created in YAST System Administration, I am only able to get so far in boot. The kernel loads from floppy I assume and all hardware seems to be identified and the boot continues to a cretin point, then just halts. VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). <----- System hangs here when booting from floppy.. Any help appreciated.. Perry Moon Tampa Florida </PRE> <PRE> VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).

Re: [S.u.S.E. Linux] FireGL 1000 X-Server Not Working

I have the same card make sure that you have the most up todate bios on the card. When I was setting it up I had to use xf86config rather than xf86setup. Setup does that pci prob thing And I think config does not. Somewhere in the docs they tell you not to use xf86setup.

I think you need to use the SCO Unix Oracle binaries, and then you also need to get a couple shared libraries from SCO Unix also in order to make it work. But have heard a few people have gotten it to work. -----Original Message----- From: Joseph Beaman [SMTP:beamanj@novaquest.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 30, 1998 5:07 AM To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com Subject: [S.u.S.E.

I dumbly changed my pap secrets to the mail login a month ago, and forgot I did it. What made it confusing was Mindspring would let me connect via PPP with my mail password as a logon password, but then would refuse all nameserver requests.
