Suse 8.2 kernel compile problems
by Charles.99 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

With Suse 7.2 I compiled kernels many time with no problem With Suse 8.2 every attempt has been a disaster, luckily I have a 2nd install on a removeable hard disk for tinkering, dabbling and learning... I've followed the Admin guide instructions to the letter, but no luck. One question: in 7.2 the "make bzlilo" seems to do more than rename the kernel to .old and copy the map file, is that an area I should look at? I am using GRUB. The latest attempt resulted in: Kernel panic:VFS:unable to mount root fs on 03:43 I compiled the reiserfs support into the kernel, not as a module. (but I have tried modules as well) so what am I doing wrong? Thanks, Charles

Mozilla has lousy font rendering.
by Patrick Hooker 29 Sep '03

Hi, I'm running SuSE 8.2 w/ KDE. I like using the Mozilla browser, downloaded v 1.4, but Mozilla is doing a lousy job of rendering any fonts. The fonts show up very jagged and thin. Konqueror and the other KDE applications do fine. Is this a Mozilla problem? Can it be fixed? Thanks, Patrick

New SuSE and x86-64

Will the 64bit version *need* 64bit hardware, or just be capable of *using* it? The reason I ask is this. Someone mentioned to me that there's a good speed gain to be had by compiling a kernel with K8/Hammer selected as CPU on a normal Athlon-XP system. I didn't believe it would run but I tried and it does in fact boot and runs completely fine. I'm just curious about this. Why does a K8 kernel work on an Athlon-XP? Thanks Hans

multiple hd's on 1 nfs share
by Jason Unrein 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

Ok... how do I get multiple harddrives to show up as a single nfs share. I can do it using symlinks with samba but nfs doesn't follow them since it tries to resolve them locally. So... How could I go about doing it. Here's my setup drive 1: /mnt/raid drive 2: /ftpdrive drive 3: /mirrors I would like you have everything under /ftpdrive as in /ftpdrive/raid -> /mnt/raid /ftpdrive/mirrors -> /mirrors Any ideas to try would be appreciated. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Add hp 1210 to printers list
by Robin Rowe 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

I want to install an HP PSC 1210 printer, but it doesn't appear on the list of HP printers in Yast. The 1200 series is a supported driver. I tried installing the hp-officejet package from the CD, but still no driver shows up. How do I get Yast to add the 1210 to the list so I can pick it during install? How do I install the HP PSC 1210?

SuSE 8.2 - Can't get internet access
by humvee 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

Dear All I am new to Linux and am having a problem configuring SuSE 8.2 Pro to access the internet. 8.2 is set up on a 40GB HD with WinXP set up on second 120GB HD. Access to the web is networked via a second machine with Linux Smoothwall 1.0 firewall and ADSL modem. Access is fine under WinXP. 8.2 has clearly identified Eth0 and this I have configured for DHCP in YAST2. However, when booting into Linux it fails to establish the network connection. This is obviously stopping me from getting on with Linux as I would like and look forward to any help that you can provide. Regards Humvee

Suggestions on video and sound programming tips
by Rafael E. Herrera 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

Hello, I'd like to design simple audio and video playback routines. I've a digital signal acquired through an A/D that I'd like to play as sound. Also I'd like to draw the signal on a window that can be streamed through a video card with TV output. If there is anybody here, working on audio or video programming, I'd like to know if you have suggestions on how to get started. E.g. audio libraries, video libraries, video cards supported under linux, etc. Thanks. -- Rafael
