my messages don't reach the list
by mircea.andrei＠wanadoo.fr 29 Mar '00

29 Mar '00

I have two versions of linux on my hard disk, an older and a newer one. In both I use mutt and sendmail, in both I can check in real time that my messages to the outside world are accepted by the smtp server at the other end. I can't see any difference between the two systems in this context. Nevertheless, when I send my messages to this list with the new operating system, even if they are accepted by the suse smtp server, they don't reach this list, while the same message sent with the old system reaches the list (you are reading it right now). Suse people, how do you explain this ? Thank you. -- # \\\|/// # (-@-@-) # ====oOO==(_)==OOo========================================== # Andrei Mircea <mircea.andrei(a)wanadoo.fr> # .oooO Oooo.

[SLE] Agetty and Auto-disconnect on logout
by bjoynes＠edge.net 29 Mar '00

29 Mar '00

Hi, I'm using SuSE 6.3 and agetty on ttyS0. When I log out of the system I would like the connection to automatically close as well. How can I achieve this please? Also, I have needed to change inittab a few times and have always rebooted, is there a way to initialize inittab without rebooting the system please? Thanks for any help..

[SLE] pcmcia hangs system at boot
by jpg＠hpcvcgc.cv.hp.com 29 Mar '00

29 Mar '00

Got a weird one. If I boot into SuSE6.3 and let it fire up the /sbin/init.d/pcmcia script at startup, my system totally hangs. Hangs, meaning no keyboard, no mouse, no lan nothing. Below is the text at boot time during this event. . . . PCMCIA: Starting services: cardmgr[62]: starting, version is 3.1.3 PCMCIA: cardmanager is running cardmgr[62]: watching 2 sockets cardmgr[62]: initializing socket 0 cardmgr[62]: socket 0: Linksys EtherFast 10/100 cardmgr[62]: executing: 'insmod /lib/modules/2.2.13/pcmcia/cb_enabler.o' cardmgr[62]: executing: 'insmod /lib/modules/2.2.13/pcmcia/tulip-old_cb.o' At this point hang. If I take the Linksys card out at boot time, the system boots up. However as soon as I plug the card back in, the system initiates the pcmcia driver for the Linksys card, I get the two pcmcia beeps and then the system again immediately hangs. However if I disable /sbin/init.d/pcmcia and then boot to run level 2. Then I manually run /sbin/init.d/pcmcia at run level2, then I execute an 'init 1' followed by an 'init 2', all works fine. I am also running dhcp client, and this is on an HP Omnibook PIII 600MHz. Any clues?? jpg -- 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/Doku/FAQ/

[SLE] root denied
by fgs＠epulse.net 29 Mar '00

29 Mar '00

Hi, I thought this was impossible but it now seems that if I su to root in an xterm and then try and run emacs I am denied permission. I can run emacs ok from an xterm as just me (also from kde's alt+F2) Here is the error message: Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.0. Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'. Also use the `xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit connections from your machine. Any suggestions and many thanks Francesco. -- 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/Doku/FAQ/

Re: [SLE] Suse 6.4 and Xfree86 X.X?
by ogley＠suse.co.uk 29 Mar '00

29 Mar '00

> Just wondering, Why won't Suse 6.4 use Xfree86 version 4.0? Because the XFree team say it's not quite stable, and needs testing and patching before they reccomend using it for genberal purpose use. It will be on the CD, but not the default X server, you'll be free to use it, but pretty well at your own risk - keep both halves and all that :) -- James Ogley, SuSE Linux UK Ltd - +44 (0) 20 8 387 4088 @ Work: ogley(a)suse.co.uk www.suse.co.uk @ Home: james(a)rubberturnip.org.uk www.rubberturnip.org.uk ICQ: 57374251 Slashdot: riggwelter (84180) -- 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/Doku/FAQ/

RE: [SLE] Anything better out there than Netscape?
by kevin.jackson＠jhallpr.demon.co.uk 29 Mar '00

Kind of defeats the object of a text based browser, doesn't it? And anyone writing a gui for it - can be re written to say anyone want to write a browser that doesn't display images. :o) teganos - I really do agree that what is needed is a solid, all round good performer web browser. I actually write web pages for IE - what I can pull out of IE I can't in Netscape. This does emphasise the split between the two. What I write for IE I like, it looks good and performs well. I would like to be able to get away from using a JavaScript to determine what page gets displayed under what browser. IE may crash but I like browsing the web with it... and that is coming from someone who loves Linux Surely someone is working on a similar browser with code that works!?!?!?!? I've never liked Netscape - I only use it in Linux to view my Network status using NetsSaint! I daren't try to code anything using layers on it.

[SLE] need help please
by dkphoto＠cyber-wire.com 29 Mar '00

29 Mar '00

I am getting the oddest behavior and can't find it mentioned in the FAQ... My login dialog ("Welcome to SuSE Linux at linux") is partially covered by a smaller window titled "Console log for linux" which covers the popup menus at the bottom of the aforementioned login dialog. The "Console log for linux" window cannot be moved or closed and therefore prevents me from making any login choices from the popups. How do I get rid of this window or at least move it out of the way???
