CUPS kills trees (prints an extra blank page)
by Avi Schwartz 29 Jul '01

Hi, I just started using cups in SuSE 7.1 and I am printing from my laptop (which has cups installed) to a server that uses LPD. Since I made the switch to cups, I now get an extra blank page printed at the end of very print job even though the banners are both set to none. How do I stop cups from wasting these pages? Thanks, Avi -- Avi Schwartz Get a Life, avi(a)CFFtechnologies.com Get Linux!

More Questions (1) What do I do if my card is not listed, and if the one that is listed dosent start? Well thats the only one for now, but there will be plenty more to come I'm sure.Thanks! Donnie

Re: [SLE] Dumb problem connecting to localhost

>What does > >tail /var/log/httpd/error_log > >and > >netstat -A inet -an | grep :www-http > >Say? Hi, I found cause of a problem. "rcapache start/restart" returns done (that's why I am thinking that httpd is OK). However, "rcpache status" sometimes say OK sometimes "httpd not found". This is a httpd error log: [Sun Jul 29 02:22:32 2001] [notice] Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) (SuSE/Linux) mod_python/2.7.1 Python/2.0 mod_throttle/3.0 mod_fastcgi/2.2.2 PHP/4.0.4pl1 configured -- resuming normal operations Syntax error on line 202 of /etc/httpd/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache/libperl.so into server: R_PPC_REL14 relocation at 0x30391a9c out of range I have reintsalled apache, apache modules, including mod_perl, run SuSEconfig, but nothing helped. It looks like some kind of dynamic linking problem. How it could be solved? Thanks Andrei

Which port?
by Alex Daniloff 28 Jul '01

28 Jul '01

Hello Linux folkz, Could somebody tell me please through which port my Linux box gives up its host name and internal network name to the Internet when SMB is being run? As soon as I shut down SMB daemons it's not giving away any host or network name to the Internet. I thought it was port 139. I explicitely set iptables rules to drop all connections on it. But it didn't change anything. Could somebody tell me please what port should be blocked to prevent host and network name information leak to the Internet. Many thanks in advance.

KDE 2.1 missing "libkdecore.so.3"; Startx No-Go
by michael flug 28 Jul '01

28 Jul '01

Hi Folks, I reconfigured my kernel (2.2.16) the other day in an attempt to get my Acer CD-RW drive operational. Somehow I messed up my xfree86 configuration and now I can't get KDE 2.1 to start up when I run startx. Configuration goes fine using SaX- I am using X version 3.3.6. Here's a copy of the error message I get from X window system: ksplash: error in loading shared libraries: libkdeui.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory kdeinit: error in loading shared libraries: libkdeui.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory /opt/kde2/bin/kinternet: error in loading shared libraries: libkdeui.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory knotify: error in loading shared libraries: libkdeui.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ksmserver: error in loading shared libraries: libkdecore.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory waiting for X server to shut down almost:/ ____________________________________ What is "libkdeui.so.3"? How do I get it properly installed in the right place?And how do I make it work right again? Thanks for your patience and assistance.
