Here it's the output of "nmap localhost": Starting nmap V. 2.53 by fyodor(a)insecure.org ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) Interesting ports on localhost (127.0.0.1): (The 1514 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) Port State Service 22/tcp open ssh 23/tcp open telnet 80/tcp open http 139/tcp open netbios-ssn 515/tcp open printer 901/tcp open samba-swat 1024/tcp open kdm 1025/tcp open listen 6000/tcp open X11 Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1 second. I know all ports but 1024 and 1025. Using fuser I have found out that 1024 is used by the process "kdeinit:kxmlrpcd". What is it? And what is it for? 1025 is used by the process "/opt/kde2/bin/artsd -F 3 -S 512 -d -n" Again, what is it? What is it for? Is it a feature? Tazio

I'm trying to install SuSE 7.0 Linux for PowerPC in my RS/6000 43p model 150 but unsuccessfully. I've followed all the steps and I reach the installation program, but when the program tries to create the partitions I get the error message: The disk has an unsupported partition table Please re-partition the disk /dev/sda Any ideas?

Env vars at boot time

Message-ID: <3A2CE7CE.1E6B2473(a)hursley.ibm.com> Date: Tue, 05 Dec 2000 13:04:14 +0000 From: Derek Fountain <fountai(a)hursley.ibm.com> Subject: Env vars at boot time On SuSE-6.4 I find my boot scripts (in particular /sbin/init.d/xdm) have their QTDIR set to /usr/lib/qt and KDEDIR set to /opt/kde. I want to make the xdm script start up with kdm from KDE2, which means changing how these two environment variables are set. Where is the correct place to change them so they are set how I want right at the start of the boot process?

Has anyone played around with a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4200 laptop. It uses the S3 Savage/Ix w/MV 9294/8/9) video chip. Is this gonna be a headache for me to configure ? Will the built in modem turn out to be a Winmodem or is there a way to get it sorted. Sorry if these are basic but when the package arrives on Wednesday I wanna get stuck straight in. Thanks and regards Mark Annandale

Using remote smb share via fstab?

I have a short question (actually two questions): Is it possible to make an entry in /etc/fstab, so that I can have my roommates Win98 shares mounted automatically? If it is, what should the entry look like? I tried looking at the manpages for: - fstab - mount - smbmount - smbmnt without getting any useful hints. Regards Ole -- Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur. (Whatever is said in Latin sounds profound.)

I know there were some bug fixes, did they > make it run a lot smoother or something? I'm assuming you've tried a beta version? 2.0.1 is a pile of critical bug fixes; there are no new features, as befits a stable tree. I've been updating from CVS every couple of days so I've seen the change gradually. There's no doubt, however, that it's a lot better than 2.0. I suspect most people would suggest that 2.0.1 is what 2.0 should have been in the first place. That's hindsight for you... ;)
