[SuSE Linux] VMware?
by snapek＠yahoo.com 28 Apr '99

28 Apr '99

Has anyone actually gotten a decent version of VMware to work? Personally, I tried it out after I got my new computer, and even on a PII 400 with 128meg DIMM(s) found that it ran incredibly slow (at least at first). I then attempted to use an ATAPI cdrom driver, and got a segmentation fault.... Was I going about this wrong, or is it just meant not to work properly (like anything else associated with MicroSlop?)

[SuSE Linux] Enlightenment preconfigured in SuSE 6.1?
by jpcowh01＠ox.slug.louisville.edu 27 Apr '99

27 Apr '99

I saw on the 6.1 release information about enlightenment. I was wondering if SuSE was intending or possibly having a preconfig for enlightenment or a /etc/skel/.enlightenment that would let us get started with it... I've been impressed with what I've seen of it and windowmaker, but I am really having to search for configuration information, etc... Jonathan P.S. I'm currently using Windowmaker. -- =========== =========== Jonathan Paul Cowherd jpcowh01(a)slug.louisville.edu <A HREF="http://www.slug.louisville.edu/~jpcowh01"><A HREF="http://www.slug.louisville.edu/~jpcowh01</A">http://www.slug.louisville.edu/~jpcowh01</A</A>> This is my world and I am...

[SuSE Linux] 2.2.6 Kernel Compile
by r.ibbotson＠zen.co.uk 27 Apr '99

27 Apr '99

Hello After successfully compiling a 2.2.6 kernel I have now tried to compile the same kernel with modules. When I reboot a kernel with modules I find that it starts up and then about half way through the boot process the screen fills up with text which continues to spool from bottom to top without end. I have to reboot with the boot floppy to use the 2.0.36 kernel which came with 6.0. Someone has suggested to me that this is something to do with a with a modutils package (>=2.1.121) which needs to be updated when I moved from 2.0.x to 2.2.x. I've looked at the installed packages. I can see a package called modules which is version 2.1.85. Surely modutils is a Red Hat package ? Can someone make a suggestion as to how I can get modules to work with a 2.2.6 kernel and SuSE 6.0 ?

Re: [SuSE Linux] Re: Function of System.map

The installer's map and System.map have absolutely nothing in common. System.map is for example used by klogd and ps. See the rele- vant manpages.
