think). Anyway, get the latest slang and newt development packages and
it should compile fine. For example, I compiled sndconfig under Debian to get my SB16 working
properly. Please note that you need Red Hat's 2.0.36 kernel (with the 2.1 sound
modules backported) or a 2.2 kernel to use sndconfig. IMHO, sndconfig should be in ALL the distros. It's clean, easy to use
(as of Red Hat 5.2), and does what it needs to do. --

Title: Hard Disk Problem

Has anyone had a problem where Linux crashes because, it can n= ot read the Hard Drive.

I have a Maxtor 4.3, Split up in to 2gig, 1.3 Meg, and the 1.3= meg Swap, and the rest for Linux.
I can install the 5.3 Office version, however whenever I t= ry to boot, the system crashes saying that it can not read /dev/hda. At this= time, I think that I have to do a low level reform for the entire drive, wh= ich means=3Dget another HD). I think that it is because I have used the Fat3= 2 FS or because, I have enabled Large Disk Support on the HD for windows. Ei= ther way, I have worked all weekend end and I have not been able to resolve = this issue. I have tried Caldera, Slackware 96 and all of the distributions = seems to be behaving the same way. Slackware actually booted up one time, bu= t on the next boot the same problem.

I am at a loss. I am thinking that I need to get a something = like Partition-Magic or something like that in order to fix the Hard Drive. = But, I thought that I should ask for opinons first

Help!

I am having a heck of a time getting my USR 56K FaxModem = to=20 work. I am using isapnp and isapnp.conf. It tells me that the card=20 is getting configured as 0x2f8 and IRQ 3. I have disabled all other serial=20 ports on the machine except for 0x3f8 IRQ4 fo the mouse.

After linking /dev/modem to /dev/cua1 either with YaST or= =20 manually, Minicom (my test bed) just looks at me funny when run. I am=20 kinda handy with serial stuff, and figure I can do all the PPP stuff working = -=20 if I can ever get this &^#$%^) Plug and Pray stuff working.....=20 gads!

Any suggestions?

Pity, because the /appearance/ of siag is excellent. >=20 You may want to adjust your instmon file so that it watches some of the /var directories, I have seen various files get placed in the /var paths over time. Just change the exclude line so it reads like /var/spool /var/log etc.. instead of just /var --=20 Ec|ipse on EFnet - tomas(a)primenet.com - http://www.primenet.com= /~tomas> Ec|ipse@|Watcher| - botnet webpage down until further notice Slackware Linux v3.6+ - Kernels 2.0.35/2.2.1 - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <= A HREF=3D"http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/http://www.suse.com/Suppo= rt/Doku/FAQ/> and the archive at ht= tp://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html> --===============2298226115394792790==-- From hattons@CPKWEBSER5.ncr.disa.mil Tue Feb 23 04:25:50 1999 From: hattons@CPKWEBSER5.ncr.disa.mil To: users@lists.opensuse.org Subject: [SuSE Linux] Manufacture's Drivers!

I was reading the mini-howto on soundblasters and came across this: The SB AWE 64 has the capabilities of the SB AWE 32 and an additional Wave Guide synthesis Creative Labs is especially proud of. The problem for Linux users is, that the additional 32 voices are software generated and output via the raw wave devices. Because Creative Labs sees no market in Linux drivers, a Wave Guide synthesis sound driver is only available for Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. Cane people think of a polite way to put pressure on folks such as Creative Labs to develop Linux drivers? It seems to me that Linux is poised to make a "quantum leap" into self configuration with PnP. It would be really nice if hardware manufactures took part in developing the software components for their products. As far as there not being a market, well I've spent over ten thousand dollars on computer equipment in my life and I am running linux on all my systems. (Yea, I do have NT partitions so I can learn things for work.) I would suggest an e-mail campaign, but that sound too much like spamming. Perhaps an internet petition form might be a good way to collect input to then send to hardware manufactures.
