Lenz, or someone else at SuSE. Is SuSE going to include GNU-Cash in a future release? I'd like to be able to download a copy that works with SuSE. Thanks, Fred -- It said "Needs Windows 98 or better". So I installed Linux... -- 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] NFS mount is locking up.
by Anonymous User 08 May '00

08 May '00

I have a fresh install of SuSE 6.3 and FreeBSD 4.0. The SuSE machine is the NFS server and FreeBSD the client. I am able to mount a directory on the FreeBSD box and list directories on the mount. As soon as I try to copy over a file, the NFS connections locks on me. What do I have setup incorrectly? More info: With previous installs of SuSE 6.2 I tried setting one Linux up as an NFS server and another as client. I ran into the EXACT same problem. I have a feeling that I do NOT have something configured correctly on the SuSE end of things. This is the status of my SuSE rc.config file: START_PORTMAP="yes" NFS_SERVER="yes" USE_KERNEL_NFSD="yes" USE_KERNEL_NFSD_NUMBER="4" NFS_SERVER_UGID="no" REEXPORT_NFS="no" Do I need to compile the Linux kernel in some special way? I am using the default SMP kernel. Is there some daemon I need to have running? In the O'Reilly book it talks about biod on the client and the rpc.lockd and rpc.statd daemon's on the server. What daemons do I need running on the SuSE NFS server and FreeBSD client? (As soon as I have this working with the FreeBSD client, there will be a SuSE client, too). Any points folks have is very much appreciated!!!!!

[SLE] UMC 9008F NIC... Any driver?
by creimer＠rahul.net 08 May '00

08 May '00

Greetings! I picked up an ISA network card from my roommate that I presume was a NE-2000 driver compatible. Unfortunately, the NE-2000 driver doesn't like it. The card has a UMC 9008F chipset. Any ideas on making it work, or what card its supposed to be comparable with? Thanks!

[SLE] Hardsuse
by irisinc＠gci.net 08 May '00

08 May '00

I have set up an old 486 SCSI box with ipchains, masquerading, firewall and made it a gateway for my small home network. I am further going to add tripwire and I also wanted to use Hardsuse if I could find some documentation. I saw the info page that says " this will disable all services and change configuration files. You better know what you are doing before you use this." So far I have not found a man page, a HOWTO or any other documentation. If a person decides ( From the lack of documentation I don't know why anyone with a lick of sense would) to use this time bomb waiting to off, what will happen in which order and are the consequences reversible after the threat is over. If not why have the program in the first place? Does anyone know where I may obtain more information about this program? If someone who is familiar with this program would be kind enough to explain under what circumstances I would want to use this program and also what is it that I had better know "what I am doing" before I use it or is this a mystery?

[SLE]A strange command in history list
by berten＠superonline.com 08 May '00

08 May '00

PROMPT_COMMAND='pwd>&6;kill -STOP $$' Since 5.3, whenever I execute history command, I see this command in my command buffer which I didn't typed. Can anyone tell me where it might come from and what it performs if I accidentally execute it?

[SLE] Ping
by tb64710＠ltec.net 07 May '00

07 May '00

Under for what it's worth.................after much hair pulling, all is well. My inability to ping turned out to be a problem on the windows disk. For some reason my NIC lost it's irq in windows and for whatever reason (way beyond me) it prevented SuSE networking from functioning, even though everything looked normal. Oh the shame for ever suspecting linux. Windows bites you in the butt even when it's isolated on another disk. Talk about insidious. Thanks all for the help. This was another step forward in understanding linux even though it felt like several backwards ones!

[SLE] I'm back :-)

Just wanted to let you know that I'm back from a week of SuSE roadshow (returned yesterday evening). This was stressing but also quite a bit of fun. I've caught up with the backlog by generous use of 'D', so I might have missed something or other, but I'm (virtually :) back again amongst you.

[SLE] TV, Burners, Video Cameras
by tb64710＠ltec.net 07 May '00

07 May '00

Hello list, Persuaded my oldest son to install SuSE 6.4 . Now he wants all the bells and whistles to work on his machine. (PIII 600, 64M ram, I believe). He has a Hauppage TV card (which is supported), a cd-burner (don't know), and a little video camera. I want to help him as much as possible without revealing too much of my newbie-ness (spelled ignorance). I think I've read that the burner has to be used as an SCSI device? What about the TV card, what's involved there? And the video camera? Any help would be appreciated or point me in the right direction. Make me and SuSE look good......he's 21 and working on his Doctorate already..........but he's VERY windows oriented, and I've been talking up SuSE for some time now. He's in CA so luckily he can't see me sweat! Thanks a million.
