[SLE] Still the RW cd's
by m.a.oliveira＠ic.ac.uk 01 Oct '00

I've been playing around with it... ** In Win98 there is no problem reading the cd. ** In Linux, mounting it with the option -t iso9660 gives: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/cdrom ** In Linux, mounting with the option -t auto gives: fs type udf not supported by kernel Any ideas??? What on earth is the udf filesystem???

[SLE] kppp after 7.0 upgrade
by fsanta＠arrakis.es 01 Oct '00

01 Oct '00

Hi everyone. The SuSE 7.0 upgrade from 6.4 went well apart from the immediate disconnection on trying to connect via kppp. Wvdial works fine however from root and I can browse and get e-mail as an normal user.. Can anyone help? kppp reports that 'kppp deamon died unexpectedly' or 'Timeout expired while waiting for the PPP interface to come up!' Random messages. Everything was working great under 6.4. Any help much appreciated. Thanks, steve. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq

Hi. Has anyone got ttfont support working from xfree4.0? I can't find any documentation on it in my 7.0 upgrade manuals. Currently I'm using xfstt. If there are no advantages in using xfree then I'm happy to stick with it. Any comments anyone?

[SLE] Problems with kernel NFS daemon under Suse (sigh)....
by sjhill＠cotw.com 01 Oct '00

01 Oct '00

Greetings. I have been beating my head against the wall for about 2 hours now trying to get NFS server to startup so I can export my filesystems. Here is what I am using: Suse-6.4 Dell Latitude 400Mhz Celeron w/128MB 3COM589D PCMCIA linux-2.4.0-test8 knfsd-991001-133 If I do the command '/etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S17nfsserver start' I get the message: Starting kernel based NFS serverlockdsvc: Invalid argument The offending lines in '/erc/rc.d/rc2.d/S17nfsserver' are: checkproc -n lockd checkproc -n lockd || \ /usr/sbin/rpc.klockd || return=$rc_failed Below are the options I used for compiling my kernel: # # Network File Systems # # CONFIG_CODA_FS is not set CONFIG_NFS_FS=y CONFIG_NFS_V3=y # CONFIG_ROOT_NFS is not set CONFIG_NFSD=y CONFIG_NFSD_V3=y CONFIG_SUNRPC=y CONFIG_LOCKD=y CONFIG_LOCKD_V4=y CONFIG_SMB_FS=y I have also attached my '/etc/rc.config' file. Any insight someone could have would be VERY much appreciated. I have used a lot of other Linux distributions, but am finding SuSe to be a bit tough to get working. I have yet to also get it to recognize my PCMCIA modem on a consistent basis, but that's another story... Thanks. -Steve -- Steven J.
