Hdd-crash
by Thomas Widlundh 03 Feb '03

03 Feb '03

Hi, I have a machine with 2 hdd:s. On the 1st one I have Win-xp. On the 2nd suse 8.0 (hdb) The machine used to be started by LILO. Now the first one crashed so I had to buy a new disk and install win-xp again. I understand that there is no LILO anymore, but I try to start suse with a diskette and/or the 1st CD. On the screen I can choose from several alternatives. Choosing "installed os:s" only windows will start. Choosing "recovery" a kernel is loaded and I'll get a log-in prompt. I do a log-in as the user me, and this seems to work, but obviously I'm not really in on hdb. There are hardly no dir:s at all in my place in home. Anybody knows how to log-in and change to the real hdd (hdb)? Regards, Thomas

> mount point /windows does not exist because you do not have a *directory* /windows in your linux system. Above /windows/C. Linux is *very* particular and instructions that you are given will *not* succeed unless they are followed specifically, provided that they were correct <grin>. Your posts will be much easier to read if you change your *indent* character from ">" to "><space>" thats ">" + a space. < Thanks Franklin, dano, Patrick et al: Got it mounted: just needed to have a directory in the tree named windows and that fixed it. Mounts fine now. I did have touble getting to an editor than Im comfortable with in root, however. Tried to use kate as root but the suse way: sh kate (as root) or ./kate didnt work. Had to use file manage-superuser mode and it didnt let me edit the /etc/fstab file. How do you open kate as root if not by the 2 commands above which I found in the manual! BTW, do the <space> make the post easier to read?

Dear my friends, I am using SuSE 8.1 and Squid as a proxy server. I want to block/deny all destination for sales except "www.bloomberg.com" and "www.bloomberg.de" . I have defined the group of my sales with this line : " acl sales src 192.168.23.240-192.168.23.254/255.255.255.0 " But I don't know how to define blocking all destination domain except "www.bloomberg.com" and "www.bloomberg.de" . Thank you very much. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.yahoo.com

Re: [SLE] konqueror crashing after kde 3.1 update.
by Josef Demergis 03 Feb '03

Thanks for al your help..A clean reinstall of 8.1 and then installing the individual kde packages I had downloaded before, (without using apt) did the trick.... KDE 3.1 looks nice now.... When in doubt , format...it is the most time-efficient way with linux I think, when you need to install something new... On a more happy note my previous system run without a hitch for the past 5 months ! Fergus Wilde wrote: >On Monday 03 February 2003 07:10, Josef Demergis wrote: > > >>E.F.

apt-get KDE3.1 with KDE3.0.5 running?
by Kevin McLauchlan 03 Feb '03

03 Feb '03

Is it legal/safe to run synaptic (or apt-get) to upgrade KDE while KDE3.0.5 is running? Or must I go to a text login (or maybe GNOME...) before invoking apt-get ? /kevin

konqueror crashing after kde 3.1 update.
by Josef Demergis 03 Feb '03

03 Feb '03

Hello fellow susers, I did a clean install of suse 8.1 and then proceeded to update kde to 3.1 version. Unfortunately konqueror crashes as sson as I try to look at a folder. All packages have been upgraded to kde 3.1 speck, i have uninstalled teh konqueror 3.04 (since it clashed with kde3.1 base according to synaptic) and used the kde3addons3-konqueror instead. Everythinh else appears normal and I can boot into kde 3.1 just fine..I would appreciate any suggetsions -help Regards, Josef

for the source code fergus asked for, i found it here: http://www.doomworld.com/ports/linux_unix.shtml -- Kill the lights, let the candles burn behind the pumpkins’ mischievous grins, And let the skeletons dance. For one thing is certain, The Misfits have returned And once again everyday is Halloween.
