I've looked at the NAT stuff suggested by another. Shouldn't that be setup automatically by the yast firewall config?? Thanks, Jim PS: Please excuse any formatting problems. I've also got a mail send problem and have to use the net interface to my account.

SUSE on small machine
by Glenn Holmer 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

I'm trying to get SUSE 9.2 to install on an old machine with just 64M of core and no CD-ROM drive. OK, I built the half-dozen floppy images on another machine and went to install from that machine over HTTP. The install starts, warning me to add swap first (which I do, as there's already a Linux swap partition available), but then it just hangs with the progress bar about 3/4 filled. Is this even possible in 64M? -- ========================================================= Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) ========================================================= I am closing down. I have much to do; you have engaged my circuits on your petty affairs for far too long. ========================================================= -Orac (the computer), Blake's 7 =========================================================

RE: [SLE] place for final commands -- nfs mounts
by James D. Parra 02 Mar '05

Thank you. I found something interesting which may be preventing nfs from importing nfs mount points from /etc/fstab at boot up. chkconfig -a nfs insserv: There is a loop between service named and nfs nfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off What is happening with named and nfs?

Can't login as my normal user
by Your Name 01 Mar '05

01 Mar '05

I was doing some maintenance on my home network and logged out of my normal user, then did a reboot. After the reboot, I go up to init 3 (which is normal on this box). After logging in as that user, startx blanks the screen for a few seconds then pops back to the command line. There are no warnings or errors displayed or in any log files that I've checked. If I login as root and do "init 5", I get the graphical login screen. Trying to login as my normal user pops right back to that screen too. I can login as other users. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks, Jim

I've searched the archives of the mailing list but havent found a definitive answer to this question. How can I issue this command during system boot: ethtool -s eth1 autoneg off duplex full .. I tried putting it in /etc/boot.local, but apparently boot.local runs before the network settings are touched. OS: SLES 8 kernel: 2.4.x Thanks, Ryan

I am having trouble with my Apache2 installation on SuSE 9.2 "rcapache2 status" reports that it is running but when I connect to "localhost:80/" I get the following messages in konqueror: "An error occurred while loading http://localhost:80/:" *and* "Connection to host localhost is broken." In firefox, no messages are displayed but neither is the page, although the page title is shown in the tab bar correctly My "access_log" is empty and my "error_log" only shows the following: >>> arizona:/var/log/apache2 # tail error_log [Mon Feb 28 20:30:49 2005] [warn] child process 13382 still did not exit, sending a SIGTERM [Mon Feb 28 20:30:49 2005] [warn] child process 12311 still did not exit, sending a SIGTERM [Mon Feb 28 20:30:54 2005] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption: 0x08469160 *** [Mon Feb 28 20:31:32 2005] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/sbin/suexec2) [Mon Feb 28 20:31:32 2005] [warn] Init: Session Cache is not configured [hint: SSLSessionCache] Destroying config 0x80f5b38 Creating new config (0x80f9108) for (null) [Mon Feb 28 20:31:36 2005] [notice] mod_python: Creating 32 session mutexes based on 150 max processes and 0 max threads.

Sometimes Linux makes me crazy.
by contiemilio＠virgilio.it 01 Mar '05

Hi all I just bought a notebook for my daughter (Dell Inspiron 510m). Tested with Knoppix 3.7 (wonderful) Tested with FreeSBIE 1.0 (see above). Then, yesterday in the afternoon, I tried to install SuSE 9.1: yast did not start in graphical mode or with incredible colours and characters if I changed the screen resolution on boot. Since I am quite curious I tried SuSE 9.2 (same result), Mandrake 10.0 (same result), SuSE 8.2 (WORKS FINE!!) Is there anyone thet can explain to me such a behaviour Ciao emilio

An apology to the list
by Kevanf1 01 Mar '05

01 Mar '05

I have only just found out that this list does not like Gmail. I have been replying to what I believed were messages on the list. It turns out that I have been replying to individual list members. I'm not a wet behind the ears newbie to mailing lists so for once this is not my fault. I have been hitting the 'reply' tab in Gmail expecting the reply to go to the list as it normally should. Well, in Gmail it doesn't. So be warned everybody. -- Take care. Kevan Farmer 34 Hill Street Cheslyn Hay Staffordshire WS6 7HR
