[SLE] etherboot machine will not start inetd
by colWilson＠bigfoot.com 28 May '00

28 May '00

I have a machine which is booting under etherboot fairly normally, but has a couple of errors: 1. inetd will not start 2. the keyboard will not work Since inetd will not start, telnet is broken. There is no log/messages file produced so I was worried about NFS access on the NFS server, but I have got a log/boot.msg (2.05 BogoMips WOW :) ) There are too many files to send them all, but if someone has an idea what they would like to see then let me know.

[SLE] problems networking
by wuilbert＠home.com 28 May '00

28 May '00

Hi, I am new using SuSe so maybe my questions are a little dumb, but I can't find a solution. As a precedent I can tell you that I am the proud owner of a @Home connection to the internet. That is simple on windows98 but with linux I still can't figure out what is going on. By the way I am using SuSe 6.1, I hope that is not too old. I tried to hard code the configuration with the data provided by @Home. and I couldn't get my connection to work. I think the card is recognized because if i give dmesg it shows that the card is recognized (I put part of the output): ----- tulip.c:v0.90 10/20/98 becker(a)cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov eth0: Macronix 98715 PMAC at 0x2400, 00 80 c6 f8 3e c0, IRQ 11. ------- but even with that i couldn't get the connection to work. The output to ifconfig was: ----- eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:C6:F8:3E:C0 inet addr:24.113.223.159 Bcast:24.113.223.191 Mask:255.255.255.192 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:6 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:12 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 Interrupt:11 Base address:0x2400 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 Metric:1 RX packets:26 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:26 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 ----- With that resul I tried to configure the network using dhcp I got it from:ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/grimmer/misc/dhcpcd-1.3.18p3-0.i386.rpm I did all the instructions and the only thing I could get was no results and the ifconfig result was similar. The difference is that in the second line (below) the isn't anything!!! -- eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:80:C6:F8:3E:C0 inet addr:24.113.223.159 Bcast:24.113.223.191 Mask:255.255.255.192 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:6 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:12 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 Interrupt:11 Base address:0x2400 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 Metric:1 RX packets:26 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:26 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 ----- I don't know what I am doing wrong (I thought) I was right. Somebody could help me? I would appreciate any help from users (wizards) that have experience using the @Home Service and SuSe 6.1 (the version I have). At this point I don't know what files to modify, how to modify them etc etc . Please I am a little desperate, I really need the connection to the internet using linux. So any help will be welcomed.

Hi All, I would like to use my Rainbow Runner add-on card for Mistique on my linux box (Suse 6.3), but have not been able to find any place that gives me any hope I can do this. Can anyone point me to some helpful information, or even better, sw? Thanks!

Re: [SLE] mv = move

tabanna <tabanna(a)aig.forthnet.gr> writes: > So, I type < mv *.sah *.zah > ~ result : failure . > How should this command be given ? I heard about a command named `mmv' command (multiple move), and I vaguely remember I saw it on SuSE disks. For such a need, I would probably do: rename 's/sah/zah/' *.sah given that `rename' is this short (and old) Perl script: #!/usr/bin/perl -w # Tom Christiansen <tchrist(a)convex.com>, in alt.sources, 90-12-08. # Modified by François Pinard <pinard(a)iro.umontreal.ca>, 91-04-19. # # rename script examples from lwall: # rename 's/\.orig$//' *.orig # rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/ unless /^Make/' * # rename '$_ .= ".bad"' *.f # rename 'print "$_: "; s/foo/bar/ if <stdin> =~ /^y/i' * $operation = shift; for (@ARGV) { $previous = $_; eval $operation; die $@ if $@; if ($previous ne $_) { if (-f $_) { warn "$0: $_ already exists\n"; } else { rename($previous, $_) || warn "$0: can't rename $previous to $_: $!\n"; } } } Yes, agreed. I should rewrite it in Python.

[SLE] Voodoo3 2000/Quake3 problems...
by eberg＠21stcentury.net 27 May '00

27 May '00

I have a dual-celeron with a Voodoo3 2000 and a fresh install of 6.4. The 3dfx module is loaded but when I try to run quake3 I get: "No default configuration 'mesa3.1' in init file _GlideInitEnvironment: libglide2x.so expected Voodoo Graphics, none detected" None of the 3dfx tests work either. If I run test3Dfx it gives me the "expected Voodoo Graphics, none detected" message. The testGlide2x works correctly, I get the 3dfx logo. The testGlide3x does not, I get the blue screen but no logo. Anyone know what the problem might be? Do I need to reload the Glide3 rpm?

[SLE] SuSE 6.4 , Netscape, and UMP (Midi plugin)
by paulsen＠texas.net 27 May '00

27 May '00

I just installed SuSE 6.4 and can't get the UMP Midi plugin to work. I had this working on SuSE 6.3 and I tried to set it up in the same way on 6.4 but I must be missing something. The plugin shows itself on the web page but there is no sound. Netscape's Help->About Plugins shows the following: ===================================================================== Mime Type Description Suffixes Enabled audio/x-midi Larry Hoff's UMP plugin version 1.10 mid, midi Yes audio/midi Larry Hoff's UMP plugin version 1.10 mid, midi Yes ===================================================================== I am able to play Midi file using both Timidity and KMidi. If I switch Netscape to use Plugger 3.2 instead of UMP for Midi files that works also. (This is not good enough since there are no controls for playing/pausing/stopping the audio with the Plugger 3.2 plugin. I'd much prefer to use UMP.)

[SLE] MD5 Passwords
by pdbeal＠louisville.edu 27 May '00

27 May '00

I am running SuSE 6.4 on an AMD K6-2 450 Mhz with 128 meg of memory and a 20 gig harddisk. I have been researching encryption and I sucessfully swicted my system to use MD5 passwords by editing /etc/pam.d/passwd and add inthe md5 modules. I have also rebuilt my password database to use MD5 encryption. However, I have a problem now with sudo. When a valid sudo user tries to run anything as root and it asks for the password...the password prompt fails. Is there some way to force sudo to use MD5 passwordS? I have tried to add the same module to /etc/pam.d/sudo but the problem still occurs. Any help would be appreciated.
