A dozen or so programs, mostly games, refuse to work because it can't find the Bashee server (despite the fact that the link is in place) and xawtv just doesn't seem to want to work with dga at all. Does anyone have expertise in these issues. I'd really like to get crossfire to work also.... I've very fustrated with this addition of Suse thus far. <p>Ruben -- Brooklyn Linux Solutions http://www.mrbrklyn.com http://www.brooklynonline.com 1-718-382-5752

smartups -- fix for problem

Date: Mon, 25 Dec 2000 20:49:38 -0600 From: "Robert C. Paulsen Jr." <paulsen(a)texas.net> Message-ID: <20001225204938.A973(a)home.paulsen.org> Subject: smartups -- fix for problem I just installed the smartups package (for monitoring a UPS) and ran into three problems, two of which I was able to fix: 1. /sbin/init.d/ups does not start the service. This is because the script neglects to source the file "/etc/rc.config". Thus, even though START_SMARTUPS="yes" is properly set, the script does not see it so it does not start the service. To fix this, simply add the following line near the top of the script: . /etc/rc.config 2. My UPS (CyberPower model 320SL) is not listed as one of the supported models. The fix: select the following model genericups, type 4 = Centralion CL Series (RUPS cable) (Set this in the file /etc/rc.config.d/smartups.rc.config.) 3. Although the system shuts down nicely when the UPS battery gets low, there doesn't seem to be any way of sending the unit its power-off signal -- Linux has already shut down! I have no solution for this yet. It may seem like this is a "chicken and egg" problem, but I think there must be a way of getting to a certain point in the shutdown process, remounting the root file system read only and then sending a power-down signal to the UPS. Perhaps there is a simpler way? I don't fully understand the master/slave setup that smartups uses so perhaps the solution lies in that area. -- ____________________________________________________________________ Robert Paulsen paulsen(a)texas.net

Has anybody experience with a Digi AccelePort Xr 920 multiport serial adapter under Suse. The recomodation from digi is as following: Distributions Supported: RedHat 5.2, 6.0, 6.1 and 6.2 TurboLinux Server 4.0 and Debian 2.1. Linux Kernels Supported: 2.0.x and 2.2.x Hardware Supported: Standard i386/i486, and Pentium. So does it also work under SuSE 6.4, with Kernel 2.2.13? I'd like to use it for a RAS-Server. Thanks Gregor <p>__________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores. Millions of Products. http://shopping.yahoo.com/

Where does X gets its resolution set? Mine seems to be 75x75 dpi. Having measured the screen and done some maths it would seems as if 92 dpi would be better. Is this something that can be tinkered with? Merry Christmas F

Kde2- 2.0.1.
by stenhoj＠adr.dk 25 Dec '00

From: Niels Stenhoj <stenhoj(a)adr.dk> Date: Sun, 24 Dec 2000 15:15:46 +0100 Message-Id: <00122415154600.01885@stoney> Subject: Kde2- 2.0.1. Hi Folks! Merry X-mas. I've just installed the above package. I like the graphics rendering. No discussions about the screen resolution. In Win98 I was and in KDE1 I'm used to having a connection icon in the system tray: KInternet. To me the purpose of this icon is to be in control. In KDE-2.0.1 there is no problem in creating a desktop icon pointing to that KDE1-internet connection proggie, but it does not dock into the the system tray together with the clipboard icon and the clock. Does anybody have any knowledge on how to fix this problem? Cheers, Niels ICQ # 101493958
