Read the spec at www.geekcode.com and construct it by hand. Very likely, you'll only do it once...

by Martin Mielke 08 May '01

Now it's become urgent --- Dear all, after creating a chrooted environment for a non-anonymous user with WU-ftpd 2.6.1, I get the following error message when trying to upload files: --- 200 PORT command successful. 553 Could not determine pwdir: No such file or directory. --- Dowloads work fine though. Any clues? Maybe I'm overseeing something obvious... Thanks in advance! Martin

Re: [SLE] Problem with adding users to Suse 7.1

Jonathan: Many thanks for your 3 messages of help for me. I can't believe that there's such a major bug in the Suse system, and that bothers me quite a bit. If beta testing didn't pick it up, then I'm forced to wonder what other bugs may still be present. Bummer. I was looking forward to trying it out, too. I think I might go back to Mandrake again and download version 8, which is just released.

Suse 6.4 kernel 2.2.18 Recently, due to some unforseen lockups I have had to reboot without shutting down. My system stops at INIT : version 2.78 booting I can get the system back up by rebooting initially into my old kernel. Any thoughts on what may be happening here ? Brian Marr

make xconfig command not working anymore
by mhf 07 May '01

07 May '01

OS is Suse 7.0 I have been trying to configure my Acer CRW1208A so that I can use it's writing/burning capabilities. Since I have not been successful, I figured maybe I should check out my kernel configuration for scsi support, or scsi emulation support. I can't reconfigure my kernel anymore. Check out the results when i do all the different make commands: almost:~ # cd /usr/src/linux almost:/usr/src/linux # make config make: *** No rule to make target `config'. Stop. almost:/usr/src/linux # make menuconfig make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop. almost:/usr/src/linux # make xconfig make: *** No rule to make target `xconfig'. Stop. almost:/usr/src/linux # What's happening here? What do I have to do to be able to configure the kernel? Thanks for your time. Mike

> But YaST2 *is* completely integrated into the KDE control centre and > that's way it is meant to be. Not the other way 'round. Yes, that's good. But what's wrong with this picture: + Network + Sound + YaST2 Those are entries in KControl. If I'm looking to change the network settings I'd click on 'Network'. If I'm looking to change the sound settings I'd click on 'Sound'. See where I'm getting at? Instead of 'YaST2' as an entry perhaps it would be easier for the user to understand 'Printer', 'Modem', and 'Security'. Do you see what I mean? If we take those examples, KControl would look like this instead: + Network + Sound + Printer + Modem + Security Maybe not exactly those menu items, but that's the idea. Ok. I won't bug you anymore about this now, I promise. :) Regards, Mattias

Hi, An entry in the grub file configuration calls the dos boot-manager, just like lilo... Lilo with the lba32 option now does the same thing that grub, in my opinion.
