I'd be happy just to get SuSE to "see" my drive as scd0!! It's a Plextor, was working FINE, till I added an IDE drive (have 2 SCSI) on the 2nd IDE channel. Boot.msg says the drive is hdc. Once again, I'm bitten by the lack of a utility to find the drive and set it up properly. My fstab and lilo.conf haven't changed.

Solving my constant lockups problem
by Michael Coan 27 Feb '02

27 Feb '02

Previously I was running SuSE 7.3 Pro on a Gateway computer. Pentium II 350, 256 meg ram, ide drive, STB Velocity graphics card (riva 128zx chipset). also had VMWare 3.0 running Windows NT 4.0 and accessing a Novell server. system was very stable, no problems. Decided to upgrade as another user in the office needed an upgraded machine so I gave them mine. New system is the following: ECS K7SEM motherboard, Athlon 1.4 GZ CPU 512M PC 133 SDRAM Adaptec 29160 SCSI Controller IBM 10K 18 G hard drive (DDYS or something, I forget) Jaton TNT2 AGP 32M video card Seagate 22000A tape drive Legato CD-RW noname dvd-rom This is used for business, so no fancy graphics are needed. I am using KDE 2.2.2, but kept QT at 2.2.x. i am using the nv video driver that comes with SuSE7.3, with 3d accleration not enabled. I previously tried the nvidia drivers, but had lockups with those as well. using XFree86 4.2. currently using 2.4.10. Have used 2.4.16 and also had lockups. I am interested in a methodolgy that will help me determine the cause of the lockups. i suspect it is the combnation of the motherboard and the 1.4 Ghz Athlon. The motherboard is inexpensive adn includes integrated sound, lan, and video. Based on the SiS 730 chipset. Not sure it was designed for the 1.4 Ghz Athlon. Gives errors if I enable dma I boot in Linux safe mode, and have the following items in lilo.conf ide=nodma disableapic apm=off hdc=ide-scsi mem=nopentium I have used google to search the web for problem reports, but can't find anything conclusive. I can lock up the machine hard jsut using the find files tool in Konqueror. Copying large files from one partion to another on hard drive will also lock it up. Starting vmware is problematic at best. Sometimes it loads and runs, sometimes it locks up hard. If I use taper from a terminal window within kde it will lock up. I switch to a separate non X console it will run fine. Should I just get a new motherboard? Should i get a new video card? I get sevral hard lockups every day, and I used to get none at all. If I get a new motherboard or video, recommendations would be appreciated. I could get an ASUS A7V133 and use the same RAM. Mike -- Michael A.

Netscape Upgrade
by Stephen P. Molnar, Ph.D. 26 Feb '02

26 Feb '02

SuSE v7.1. The default Netscpe, v4.76, opens without any problems. I've installed v6.2.1 in /usr//local/netsscape. When I open 6.2.1 I get the message 'activation.netscape.com couldn't be found Please check the name and try again' When I close the message window 6.2.1 opens. I've found seven entries in the SuSE database, none of which discuss this problem. What is the solution? Thanks in advance.
