I have an IBM ATA-100 30Gig drive connected to the EIDE bus on my A7V. I also have an AHA29160 witha Quantum SCSI 18Gig LVD. No problems at all. -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Marshall [mailto:bmarsh@bmarsh.com] Sent: Monday, July 30, 2001 9:18 AM To: suse users Subject: Re: [SLE] Adding a scsi-disk to Linux On Monday 30 July 2001 13:05, Graham Smith wrote: > Hi David, > > Just a thought when you run lilo do you get an error message.

Most of us run more than one SCSI drive (I have one machine with 3) but the difference here is that he has the IDE drive as boot.

bind: Address already in use ???
by Robert C. Paulsen Jr. 30 Jul '01

30 Jul '01

Hi, On a recently-installed SuSE 7.2 I am getting the following message repeated every 10 minutes exactly: Jul 30 12:09:58 rcpaulsen inetd[613]: printer/tcp (2): bind: Address already in use Jul 30 12:19:58 rcpaulsen inetd[613]: printer/tcp (2): bind: Address already in use Jul 30 12:29:58 rcpaulsen inetd[613]: printer/tcp (2): bind: Address already in use Jul 30 12:39:58 rcpaulsen inetd[613]: printer/tcp (2): bind: Address already in use etc... I get the messages even when I disconnect the ethernet cable, so whatever is going wrong is happening on my system. Any ideas? -- ____________________________________________________________________ Robert Paulsen paulsen(a)texas.net

Hi, Without 1) openning the box, or 2) rebooting (really it's 1), but...) is there an easy way to tell whether a machine has ECC RAM or not? Thanks a zillion, Alvaro Novo SuSE 7.1 Pro -=- Kernel 2.4.0-64GB-SMP -=- KDE 2.2-beta1 4:10pm up 27 days, 4:28, 2 users, load average: 1.02, 1.04, 1.00

Explanation of X keyboard config files
by Paul Abrahams 30 Jul '01

30 Jul '01

I'd like to redefine the keys on one of the keyboards defined by XFree86 within the directory /usr/X11/lib/X11/kbd. The keyboards are defined in the file /usr/X11/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.lst, but the definitions there depend on other files. If you're using the KDE keyboard configuration selector, you can't use xmodmap to override these configurations, because KDE pays no attention to it. That means you have to go back to the configuration files in /usr/X11/lib/X11/kbd and make the change there. Can anyone here point me to the documentation on the files within /usr/X11/lib/X11/kbd? Thanks. Paul
