Hi Lenz I wish to make a NT server call me back after my calling. I just do it using a W98 client: how can I do the same using linux box instead?

[SLE] pcmcia scheme at boot
by revans＠e-z.net 10 Jan '00

10 Jan '00

I mangled /sbin/init.d/pcmcia to get pcmcia schemes to work at the boot prompt in lilo. It wasn't working via the way specified by the pcmcia howto. /sbin/init.d/pcmcia was not writing the scheme label into /var/state/pcmcia/scheme so the /etc/pcmcia/network script would pick up the last specified scheme. I need, however, to get pcmcia schemes to work from the Choose boot loader. I am assuming that the append="SCHEME=scheme_label" would be specified on the command line. However this does not work. Does anyone have any experience with chos and know how to specify this.

Hi, I'm looking for onfo on network backup solutions. It has to support various clients including Linux (obviously), Novell, NT and Sun (possibly SGI also). Does anyone have opinions on or experience with arkeia, amanda, bru, lonetar or others? I know arkeia should support the above OSes does anyone know about the others (or relavent web sites).

[SLE] Dell or Trust?
by hatridge＠straubing.baynet.de 10 Jan '00

10 Jan '00

Hi all, I've just got a AMD486/100 computer running with parts from a very nice lady in England. She told me that the motherboard came out of a either a Trust Computer Systems or a Dell computer. I need the manual for this motherboard. The board has 3 ISA and 3 PCI slots, the BIOS is dated 1996. It's a AMD 486 / 100mhz cpu. She got the system new in 1996 in England. Can anyone give me an idea who made the motherboard? Thanks for your help!

I have a program named Gozilla that runs on Win9X. Basicly, it compiles a lists of files to download and schedules it for latter. Also supports restarting mid-file. Is there anything like this for Linux? I remember seeing a package on the SuSE disks, maybe, but I can not find it. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2614.3500" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a program named Gozilla that runs on Win9X.

[SLE] Installation question
by danny＠dmprice.org 10 Jan '00

10 Jan '00

I am trying to install SUSE 6.3 on my system. I am trying to creat a dual boot Win98, linux box. The problem is that the mouse doesn't work. If I boot off the CD, the first screen asks for my locale, keyboard layout and time zone.. no problem, but can't use mouse. Next screen asks for what kind of mouse.. cool.. PS2.. when I hit next, my system locks up. Seems like for some reason, it causes the PS2 port to conflict with something.. and boom.. no more nothing. Ok, I think.. I say no mouse.. The system installs fine, and I boot into my new linux system. cool.. startx.. lock up. dang.. Ok, reinstall off the boot disk. I see it recognize the PS2 port.. thinking cool.. install all the packages go through network setup, cool.. what kind of mouse? PS2.. damn. locked up again. Hmm.. I tried different mice, doesnt help. Mouse works fine under windows. Anyone here experienced this sorta problem?
