[SuSE Linux] Printer
by dmale＠one.net.au 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

I have a Canon 7000 bubble-jet printer and am trying to set it up. It prints great with apsfilter set using the bjc800 filter, unfortunately the print size is about a5 rather than a4, the setting I want. I have the new ghostscript and viewer and printing a gs example (the tiger comes out at 120 * 170mm) or using Applix words to print a page known to be the correct size and with 12 point font still results in this error of the actual area used of about 120 * 170mm. Can some one suggest where I might look to increase the finished print size. I had installed a filter at the a3 size but this made no difference.

[SuSE Linux] Video card upgrade suggestions?
by risch＠tir.com 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

I have a DiamondMM 3D 2000 w/4 Mb Ram and although it functions reasonably well I'd like to upgrade to something better, something that will serve for the near future primarily for graphics apps other than games. The Matrox G200 sounds very good, but there are others such as the Elsa Gloria, to name just one, I've heard of. I frankly do not understand the connection between the various 2-D and 3-D cards. Are there nay sites that might give me some insights into this subject? As I do not own a TV I hope to include that aspect on my Linux box, as well. So the Matrox Marvel G200 has sounded good. Anu suggestions would be appreciated. Currently I'm digging into The GIMP, Blender, and I may look at VariCAD. I do make my living with AutoCAD in Messy$oft.

[SuSE Linux] X-terminal problems
by kpadgham＠kevp.demon.co.uk 02 Jan '99

I am using X-winPro V3.4 from LabTam, It is the best x-client I have found so far, but.... when I log into X-windows on Suse-5.2 the spacebar stops working in the session..!! This problem only happens with X installed on Suse, which leads me to beleive that this is a specific problem with the Suse-5.2 platform I am also running FreeBSD & Redhat, which both work fine... Does anyone know why? or can anyone recommend a good alternative to X-WinPro?

Re: [SuSE Linux] Database programing tools
by johnvv＠hotmail.com 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

>Perl hmmm. Perl is a sysadmin created improvement on various UNIX utilites such as awk and sh. Your perception that it is only for reports is common since only 3 years ago, that is what it was. It does provide interfaces to just about every dataserver out there, MySQl being the favorite. It uses a concept called "tie" to tie variables to elements inside the dataserver, when an variable gets changed the dataserver is triggered to mirror the perl change, hence its nickname - the glue language. For this reason, it is the most common back end language on the web, virtually all CGI is written in it. Perl is full functioning in every way, but my OO dataserver is possibly the only perl only solution out there, I think it is a significant step, but I am not getting the support I need to complete the project. Why, thats a long story. It is generally considered a good second best to C language, C is very likely where I will be going in parallel to Java though I may have to give up some other projects to make room, such as my paycheck :( Java is a well thought out approach and while it may have its faults it is the only long term escape from MicroSleaze, at least right now. The Java database I mentioned looks promising, as I said, OO databases can be very efficent.

[SuSE Linux] New HD
by chris＠usma.demon.co.uk 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

I've just bought a new 3.2GB HD in addition to my 1.6GB. The latter currently has Win95 (spread over 1 primary partition and several virtual partitions) and a single Linux ext2 plus Linux swap. I would welcome recommendations for how to partition the Linux parts of my existing disk, and the new HD. I'd like to keep my existing dual-boot options on HD1 as they are, but just keep the bare minimum Linux 'system' files on there (to give back a bit more space to Win95 - it will be a while before I can dump it!), with the bulk (plus StarOffice and other apps) on HD2. Your thoughts would be appreciated (BTW, I've only got a 'small' 5.2 installation at present, as I'm waiting for 6.0 to appear to get the full package).

[SuSE Linux] Video RAM vs. System RAM and Ifconfig reporting 10mps on 100mps NIC's
by daleg＠preferred.com 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

(I'm reposting this message in hopes someone with th answers will find it.) Hi everyone, Well, I just upgraded my network to 100baseTx. WOW! What a difference it made! I used all Linksys products: 8 port dual speed hub; 10/100 PCI NIC's. I have set up one system as an X-Server using KDM login and two systems as X-Terminals. The server runs on a 266 Mhz AMD K-6 with 128 Megs and two WD Caviar 6.4's. The terminals are AMD P-90 and Cyrix PR-200 with 16 and 32 Megs, Seagate 1 Gig and Caviar 2 Gigs. Video is S3 Virge and Riva 128, each with 4 Megs. The server runs the onboard SiS, and using the latest SVGA from XFree86 3.3.3, it works fairly well. All machines run at 1280x1024 16 Bit. I am also running X-WinPro 5.0 on top of "98" on another machine. Nice package. -- The X-WinPro, that is. ;-) The server also provides SAMBA disk services to the "98" machine as well as makes use of its NEC (Windows only --GAK!) laser, and intranet web services via APACHE. Linux is the best thing since sliced bread! And, SuSE is the butter on that bread! Having worked with Linux regularly for only about a year, I know I have lots yet to learn. But, I hope to make the terminals completely diskless, or at least only with a floppy, in the near future. As it stands, they have a roughly minimal SuSE installation. Setting up the terminals via the server's CD-ROM using NFS was a snap. I have experimented with trying to find the optimal amount of RAM for the terminals using DIMM's I had handy. I started with 8 Megs which proved too little -- lots of swapping. Now, one has 16 and the other 32. Both seem to work fine. I suppose I was under the mistaken impression that system RAM was not that important once X was loaded. I would greatly appreciate someone explaining to me why? Would, for instance, more RAM on the video cards make less system RAM be needed since we are dealing with only terminals which run nothing but the X server locally? Being diskless excludes, of course, using a swap partition. Now all of that said, here is my main question. Why does ifconfig report the NIC's as running at only 10mps? There is no doubt that the cards are linked at 100mps. Their greatly increased performance over 10mps is obvious. And, of course, the indicator lights on the cards and the hub show they are linked at 100mps. I downloaded and made the latest tulip module from Donald Becker's NASA CEDIS site. It is v.90 and is definitely being loaded on bootup. I have tried several different options in modules.conf -"100baseTx" etc. Valid options are listed in the the makefile. Where does the 100mps actually take place? Is it solely on the, what I would call, hardware side? I mean from NIC > hub > NIC. Or, does the module driver play a role in actual data throughput? Simply put, does the module influence performance and if it does, how do I get it to run at 100mps? Thanks a Million for any Help! :-) -- D. R.

[SuSE Linux] tar --exclude, etc.
by jimo＠eskimo.com 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

Well, more tar questions. Firstly, I notice that trying to exclude files from being included in an archive doesn't seem to work. That is, no matter what variation of --exclude=FILE (omitting the equal sign, putting the exclude statement before or after the other list of files, including/omitting the leading / in the file's pathname) I try, the files still show up in the archive. FWIW, the list of files is generated by `find.' In reading the info docs included with SuSE 5.3, the author talks a lot in first person, but never seems to mention just who he/she is. Nor do I see any reference to a tar mailing list, or other support group. So, I'm asking here, wondering if someone knows where the general state of tar is discussed (it's probably not on this SuSE list, but what the hell, it's a starting point). At this point, it seems that the tar on SuSE 5.3 is seriously broken, unless there is some secret incantation not mentioned in the docs; it'd be nice to hear some authoritative word on its state. Would I be better off digging out the old tar from my ancient Slackware CDs? That's a depressing thought...

[SuSE Linux] tar compressed blocking
by jimo＠eskimo.com 02 Jan '99

02 Jan '99

Hi folks, The tar info docs that came with my SuSE 5.3 say: "If you are writing a compressed archive to tape with `--compress' (`-Z') or `--gzip' (`-z') ( FIXME: pxref Input and Output ), `tar' will not block the archive correctly. This doesn't matter if you are writing the archive to a normal file or through a pipe, but if you are writing it to a tape drive, then this causes problems. Use `--compress-blocks' or `--gzip-block' instead, to cause `tar' to arrange to have blocking work correctly." But when I tried my customary backup script, altered from `-b' to: tar -czv\ -f /dev/st0\ --gzip-block 128\ ... I get: "tar: unrecognized option `--gzip-block'" What's going on? Are the SuSE 5.3 tar docs hosed? Is my tar compiled without this option somehow? I guess I'll fall back to the simple `-b 128' option I've been using, which the 5.3 tar accepts cheerfully. However, I did have to extract a few things from backup tapes after installing 5.3, and every time I got error messages complaining about "child exited with status 2" or something close to that. The extracted files seem ok, but I don't like errors. Anybody know what might be going on there? Thanks in advance for any ideas. jimo(a)eskimo.com - 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="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

Geeze.. That was sooo quick :) Here is the info for anyone who wants it: Version 1.22 has a bug where the format string used to generate the filenames was not the same as the one used to generate the links.. If you don't want to upgrade to 1.30 (which uses 4 digit years), then search for this line in webalizer.c: printf(html_fname,"usage_%02d%d.%s",cur_month,cur_year%100,html_ext); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ and change the format string to "usage_%02d%02d.%s". ------end cutting--------- Looks like all we SuSE 6.2 users have to do is edit the source rpm and recompile it.

He says that the Zip Plus Drive is not supported by linux 2.0.x or 2.1.x, but that a PATCH exists for 2.0.35. So if this info is true you might have to downgrade your current kernel to 2.0.35 and download and install the patch in order to use that particular zip drive.

Re: [SuSE Linux] Database programing tools
by johnvv＠hotmail.com 01 Jan '99

01 Jan '99

Hi Samy (et al), I am big net management specialist mostly advertising me-self as a perl engineer. The art of management is really achieving the balance of gut reaction with careful statistical analysis. To achieve this I created a perl OO dataserver which really holds complex structures of chunks of data, performace data goes in daily chuncks, configuration data is divided into boxes, devices, or if convienent, whole domains. I works suprisingly well since a single ineffiecent call is more efficient that a vast number single value calls; an OO db will use one, two, maybe a dozen calls. I scaled it to use performance data, fine tuned so many hugely expensive machines that it wrecked so many egos that I felt almost guilty, (not really :) Honestly, perl seems to have reached a point of diminishing returns. I am going to put finishing touches on my server, implement it in a production environment and then... Switch over to a product called Jasmine. Owned by Computer Associates, it will probably never be ported to Linux. But none-the-less, I am certain it was once its own startup, and their technology can very easily be replicated as that is the major strength of Java. Anyway, since you mentioned being beg-intermed in db's and interested in Java, I thought I would mention this to you. Also I an working on a startup business to create that elusive $200 thinclient, progress has been slow lately mostly because of perl problems and the flu.

[SuSE Linux] beta version does not load

I boot from the eide01 disk image and YaST comes up. Then I proceed to load version 6.0 via ftp. It successfully pulls some files over from ftp.suse.com and reports that it has got them alright. Then the next screen comes up and says `An error occured during installation' and brings me back to the Start installation menu. Can anybody help me over this hurdle? Is there a way to make YaST to tell what exactly it is that went wrong? Do I have the wrong disk image? Any help is highly appreciated.

[SuSE Linux] double click speed

Hi, Sorry, but erased the original post... You can change the double click speed by inserting this line into .Xdefaults: wm_name*doubleClickTime: 500 and restarting the X 500 is just the number of millisecs. You can make it anything you want.

[SuSE Linux] Video RAM vs.System RAM and Ifconfig reporting only 10mps on 100mps NIC's
by daleg＠preferred.com 31 Dec '98

31 Dec '98

Hi everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR! Well, I just upgraded my network to 100baseTx. WOW! What a difference it made! I used all Linksys products: 8 port dual speed hub; 10/100 PCI NIC's. I have set up one system as an X-Server using KDM login and two systems as X-Terminals. The server runs on a 266 Mhz AMD K-6 with 128 Megs and two WD Caviar 6.4's. The terminals are AMD P-90 and Cyrix PR-200 with 16 and 32 Megs, Seagate 1 Gig and Caviar 2 Gigs. Video is S3 Virge and Riva 128, each with 4 Megs. The server runs the onboard SiS, and using the latest SVGA from XFree86 3.3.3, it works fairly well. All machines run at 1280x1024 16 Bit. I am also running X-WinPro 5.0 on top of "98" on another machine. Nice package. -- The X-WinPro, that is. ;-) The server also provides SAMBA disk services to the "98" machine as well as makes use of its NEC (Windows only --GAK!) laser, and intranet web services via APACHE. Linux is the best thing since sliced bread! And, SuSE is the butter on that bread! Having worked with Linux regularly for only about a year, I know I have lots yet to learn. But, I hope to make the terminals completely diskless, or at least only with a floppy, in the near future. As it stands, they have a roughly minimal SuSE installation. Setting up the terminals via the server's CD-ROM using NFS was a snap. I have experimented with trying to find the optimal amount of RAM for the terminals using DIMM's I had handy. I started with 8 Megs which proved too little -- lots of swapping. Now, one has 16 and the other 32. Both seem to work fine. I suppose I was under the mistaken impression that system RAM was not that important once X was loaded. I would greatly appreciate someone explaining to me why? Would, for instance, more RAM on the video cards make less system RAM be needed since we are dealing with only terminals which run nothing but the X server locally? Being diskless excludes, of course, using a swap partition. Now all of that said, here is my main question. Why does ifconfig report the NIC's as running at only 10mps? There is no doubt that the cards are linked at 100mps. Their greatly increased performance over 10mps is obvious. And, of course, the indicator lights on the cards and the hub show they are linked at 100mps. I downloaded and made the latest tulip module from Donald Becker's NASA CEDIS site. It is v.90 and is definitely being loaded on bootup. I have tried several different options in modules.conf -"100baseTx" etc. Valid options are listed in the the makefile. Where does the 100mps actually take place? Is it solely on the, what I would call, hardware side? I mean from NIC > hub > NIC. Or, does the module driver play a role in actual data throughput? Simply put, does the module influence performance and if it does, how do I get it to run at 100mps? Thanks a Million for any Help! :-) -- D. R.

[SuSE Linux] SaX dies shortly after startup without error message
by cworley＠altatech.com 31 Dec '98

31 Dec '98

Hi, I'm trying to run SaX, It starts up saying "probing PCI bus", "using VGA16" server, X starts (the black & white hatched screen), then a black screen with the SuSE logo in the upper right hand corner appears, then I get dumped out back to the command line. No errors (just the "probe" and "vga16" messages), no SaX window. I'm running SuSE 5.3. I've tried both PCI and ISA based video cards. I've installed all X servers. I've been able to configure X sucessfully via XF86Setup, and still can't run SaX from the console command line nor X (same behavior from both). I'm guessing that something was not installed (or not installed correctly) that's needed by SaX. Is there a way to determine if all components needed for SaX were installed? Any idea how to debug this (or what may cause this problem)?

[SuSE Linux] libtools and alsamixer
by jmcdonne＠apollointernet.net 31 Dec '98

31 Dec '98

Hello, Does anyone know if GNU libtools are available at the SuSE ftp site or included in the SuSE distribution, and, if so, in what package? I searched my installation and CD (Infomagic 6-CD set with SuSE 5.1 on one cd) but couldn't find them. I just installed the alsa-driver for my Creative Ensoniq soundcard (ES1371). It appears to have installed correctly, and detects the card, but the output is muted by default so I'm trying to install the alsamixer from the alsa-utils-0.0.8 package. I need to install the alsa-libs first and apparently need libtools to do so. Anyone have experience with compiling alsa-utils or the alsa-libs-0.1.3.tar.gz package? (kmixer (and my kscd player) from KDE Beta 4.0 got "broken" somehow at sometime and since I've read that not all mixers work with the alsa-driver I figure it makes more sense to spend my time getting the alsa-utils installed.) Happy New Year to everyone on the list!! As others have commented, the support from the folks at SuSE and the helpful way information has been shared by the experienced and the inexperienced has been exemplary!!

[SuSE Linux] SuSE, RPMs, etc.
by jab1＠txcyber.com 31 Dec '98

31 Dec '98

Hello, Seeking an alternative to RH I've converted to SuSE, however there's some things that are lacking; hopefully it's just that I don't know where to look. First off, can SuSE use RedHat RPMs (that is, the RPMs @ RH's site, and general RPMs like those for korganizer)? Second, I can't seem to find a main list of RPMs @ SuSE's site, does such a list exist (not just RPMs in the main distribution, but also for other software programs)? Third, I appreciate the fact that YaST can be used in character mode, however a GUI equivalent would sure be nice. I realize KDE has some of the functionality, so I might also mention that greater integration with KDE would be nice =) - 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="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

Re: [SuSE Linux] Setting up XF86 and my G200 - Help
by k01164＠ko.hhs.dk 30 Dec '98

This is a common problem when using windows95. It ONLY uses filenames to guess what kind of file something is, and *.rpm just happens to mean a RealPlayerModule (if the RealPlayer is installed) The solution is to use a ftp program, or download instead of opening in Netscape/IE/whatever (usually shift+click or right-click->save-as will do the trick) If you have the full adress of a file on ftp, just write it without the /matrox.rpm, then you can select it from the file list in your browser. regards Ole On Tue, 29 Dec 1998, Yatsen Ng wrote: > > I tried to download the matrox.rpm from the SuSE ftp site but didn't quite > succeed in doing so.

Not really. 2.2.0-pre2 (I think) has been released. If you follow the kernel mailing list, there is still A LOT of discussion about what fixes need to be in before it can be called '2.2.0', although it is proceeding down this path.

[SuSE Linux] YAST won't die in 5.2, I need help
by hvarela＠lonestar.jpl.utsa.edu 30 Dec '98

30 Dec '98

I have been trying to work with SuSE 5.2 off of one cd I got some time back from Cheapbytes. This is a personal challenge, as I am installing it on some computers at the university, and want to setup as much as possible on my own... Everytime I install it, apparently successfully, the init messages scroll by, as normal, then YAST starts up again with the message "Probably didn't finish configuring, so YAST will start up anyway ; )" then I go into YAST, and it prompts for the installation media, blah blah blah. If I abort, I can continue loading Linux, and everything is fine... In this second case, I think I should point out that I am having problems with LILO, but I figured out what that was, and will reinstall Linux SuSE 5.2 again tomorrow, but, I still want to know WHY WON'T YAST DIE!?!?!?

[SuSE Linux] KDE Question
by bob100＠ibm.net 30 Dec '98

30 Dec '98

If, on the KDE desktop, you right click, you get a menu. Suppose from this menu you select 'Execute command'. You get a command line. Is there a clever way to call functions from this command line? How about execute aliases? (For what it's worth most of the functions, as well as the aliases, are in my ~/.bashrc.) -bob- ---------------------------------- E-Mail: bob gordon <bob100(a)ibm.net> Date: 30-Dec-98 Time: 16:11:28 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- - 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="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

Is anyone familiar with TkMail? All I did was try to create a signature, and all of the sudden, it wouldnt start up in KDE. I tried editing the file it listed to no avail. The syntax is QUITE CRYPTIC!! When I start it in FWMN (or whatever it is), it shows a list of internal errors and line numbers. It isn't a really big deal, as there are other mail clients as capable, but... If there's a TkMail guru out there, I'll include all of the errors. Something like, "(executed from within Line 20, etc.) I would also be ameniable to completely uninstalling/re-installing, iof that is possible (feasable).

[SuSE Linux] WP8 Install FAQ
by xnavarro＠redestb.es 30 Dec '98

30 Dec '98

I read that from alt.os.linux: WP8 Install Tips and FAQ For Piecemeal Download --------------------------------------- A lousy install by corel but an excellent program. Here's a straightforward approach to installing the program. Reasons follow after. 1. Make empty directory. 2. Copy all downloaded files GUI0x.GZ to directory as gui0x (small letters, no extension). 3. Untar gui00 only, (tar -xvf gui00). 4. run ./Runme. When it asked have you unzips and untarred all programs, answer y for yes. 5. Program will then install. 6. Choose another directory to house program (something like /usr/local/wp). 7. If you're using magicfilter and ghostscript, choose a postscript printer like NEC colormate P.S. Then when wordperfect is up and running, go to print, select and edit the driver. Edit the destination where Word perfect reads your printcap. Pick either lp, or whatever, for your lpr options. 8. The executable file will be in "directory/wpbin/xwp." (E.g. run wordperfect by entering /usr/local/wp/wpbin/xwp & ). 9. Delete your first "empty" (not so empty) directory. ------------------ Explanation, apparently corel got two people working on the install. (1) The GUI0x.GZ files are in reality tar files. (2) The GUI00.GZ should be called install.tar and distributed with a readme that says just untar that file, it will untar and place in the proper directories the other tar files. (3) Since unix recognizes upper and lowercase filenames as different, the files should be lowercase so that Runme will recognize them (or rewrite runme and move files). Hope this clarifies things. Any problems, modify this and make sure it gets in the web.

[SuSE Linux] Epson Stylus Color 740
by cuchillo＠dial.pipex.com 29 Dec '98

29 Dec '98

Hi folks I hope you can help me. I an trying to get my Epson printer to work with Linux and am getting nowhere too quickly! The story so far: I just bought an Epson Stylus Color 740 printer today after checking with the SuSE Hardware Database that is would work with Linux. I downloaded the latest version of Ghost Script (v 5.50) from the SuSE FTP site. I also downloaded the newest apsfilter from the FTP site as well. I proceeded to install the following rpms using YaST; aps-1.5.SuSE-0.i386.rpm gs_both-5.50-0.i386.rpm gs_fonts-5.50-0.i386.rpm gs_lib-5.50-0.i386.rpm I also printed out the SuSE Support Database Document "Printer Check List" (vai Winedoz98) and set about installing my printer. The steps carried out are as follows; I started by logging in as SU and then by running '/usr/lib/apsfilter/SETUP' and I installed the uniprint driver as follows; 1) Which Device Interface : PARALLEL and '/dev/lp1' 2) Which Printer Driver : FREEDEF, YOUR, 'uniprint', '720' 3) Which Paper Type : a4 4) Monochrom/Colorfull : COLOR 5) Settings For You Printer: I left it at default values. 6) Add the printer definition. The resultant output is as follows; Printer entry: ### uniprint a4 color 720 ### ascii|lp1|uniprint-a4-ascii-mono-720|uniprint a4 ascii mono 720 lp|lp2|uniprint-a4-auto-color-720|uniprint a4 auto color 720 lp-mono|lp3|uniprint-a4-auto-mono-720|uniprint a4 auto mono 720 raw|lp4|uniprint-a4-raw|uniprint a4 raw After exiting the SETUP program, the next thing I did was at the command prompt typed; cat StartLog > /dev/lp1 This caused the file to be printed but the page was not ejected. I had to manually do that. The resultant output was that of a portrait print out of the file. I next exited out of SU and tried printing a test text doc by using the print function within TkDesk to print out a one line text file. This worked file except that the file was printed out in landscape, two pages to a sheet. I next tried to print a 448 byte file. This too was a text document but the print speed was appallingly slow!!

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Yup - there's a fix listed in the Support Data Base....

The easiest way would probably be to install diald (on-demand connect) Set diald to disconnect after 10 minutes of no activity. Then all you need should be a crontab entry pinging your ISP every 5 minutes. This way diald would never disconnect itself, and if the connection goes down, the crontab entry will get it up again within a few minutes.

RE: [SuSE Linux] Applixware

samy, there are only a few posts to this list concerning any aspect of applix... I did purchase it and have used it about 4 yrs ago so my memory is not detailed and the versions changed somewhat... what I do remember is that it is a complete MSoffice replacement, it has an ELF programming language which is good but different than any other language we would use so the learning curve is high, but the language compatibility with all the packages is more complete then any package I've seen.... I guess they should consider porting their language compiler to accept awk/perl syntax as more unix users will know awk or perl than ELF, and why learn another stinking language? we're not language professors! o, with that in mind, I'll stop here before I confuse the issue further and provide you with the URL to applix: <A HREF="http://www.applix.com/solutions/office.htm"><A HREF="http://www.applix.com/solutions/office.htm</A">http://www.applix.com/solutions/office.htm</A</A>> dc ---------- From: Samy Elashmawy To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com Subject: [SuSE Linux] Applixware Date: Monday, December 28, 1998 2:36PM Anybody here used the applixware data portion of applixware suite ?

[SuSE Linux] SuSE 5.3 ate my termials option, or did it?
by lsayre＠stratos.net 29 Dec '98

29 Dec '98

With SuSE 5.2 I could (from within KDE) press ALT-F2, ALT-F3, etc.., and jump from KDE to a new command line terminal for each ALT-F_. ALT-F7 then took me back to KDE. I just did a fresh install of SuSE 5.3 (from one of the $1.99 flavor single CD cheepo editions), and when I press ALT-F_ nothing happens, and I remain in KDE. Did I goof up, or is this my punishment for not purchasing the full SuSE release of version 5.3?

[SuSE Linux] Limit to the maximum number of files that can be opened?
by rag＠rdasys.com 29 Dec '98

29 Dec '98

I am having trouble with an application that we recently ported to suse linux. We are getting errors when running reports that open more that 24-28 database files. We are using Faircom Ctree local database. It does not seem to be a database problem but a file limit problem.

[SuSE Linux] SuSE 5.3 kernel compile for sound failed?
by lsayre＠stratos.net 29 Dec '98

29 Dec '98

I've compiled a half dozen kernels for SuSE 5.2, and never had a bit of trouble getting sound. Then I did a fress install with SuSE 5.3, compiled the same 2.0.35 kernel I used in 5.2, and had it fail, saying that sound must be compiled seperately (or something to that effect, I didnt save the message).

[SuSE Linux] Printing
by paspartu＠uni.net 29 Dec '98

29 Dec '98

I have an HP laserjet 1100 which can print at 300x300 and 600x600 dpi. I configured the printer and the apsfilter with YaST. It was very easy to setup the printer. I added two entries for my printer in the /etc/printcap (using YaST) one for 300x300 dpi and one for 600x600 dpi. In /etc/printcap I have 2 blocks with 3 entries each (ascii, ps and raw). The first line refers to the printer name: i.e. ascii|lp1|ljet4-a4-ascii-mono-300|ljet4 a4 ascii mono 300:\ this means that I can print an ascii file with a resolution of 00 dpi with the a2ps filter with the command lpr -P PrinterName FileToBePrinted where PrinterName is one among ascii, lp1,ljet4... The corresponding line for a 600x600 dpi resolution is ljet4-ascii|lp4|ljet4-a4-ascii-mono-600|ljet4 a4 ascii mono 600:\ The shortest way to refer to a printing mode is lpN (where N is a number), but it is quite hard to remember that lp5 correspond to a Postscript printing mode with 600x600 dpi. I tried to edit by hand the /etc/printcap file adding a name, which I can easily remember, to the lines I mentioned above. Then I restarted lpd, but then when I type lpr -P PrinterName I get a "printer unknown" message. Suggestions are welcome.

by Mike.Pugh＠ALDERLEY.zeneca.com 28 Dec '98

28 Dec '98

Hi Robert, I'm not so sure under Linux ('cos I haven't done it yet!), but under other flavours of unix, there is a kernal parameter called something like "nfiles" which will limit the number od files open at system level (not user level if you need them to be used by the db daemons). Once you have increased this parameter, you will need to recompile your kernal & reboot.

[SuSE Linux] libc / glibc / glibc2 and SuSE 5.3
by rclark＠virgosolutions.demon.co.uk 28 Dec '98

28 Dec '98

There has been a lot of to-ing and fro-ing about the libc, glibc and glibc2 libraries on SuSE linux 5.3 and the 6.0 beta - particularly with regard to Star Office. Well I can live without Star Office I think, but I urgently need to install the Oracle 8.0 software and I'd also like to try building the mozilla browser to see if it's any more stable than Navigator 4.06 and 4.5. The problem is these require a glibc2-based system and I'm running SuSE 5.3. What I've read makes me think that if I install the glibc2 libraries then lots of things will stop working unless I recompile virtually the whole system. Is this true? is there any way around it? I'm unwilling to risk the stability of my whole system to achieve these goals but I'm reluctant to go back to using RedHat. The glibc HOWTO shows how to install glibc2 from a source code tarball. I'd rather have rpms for both the development support packages and the lib binaries as there would surely be less to go wrong then. The mozilla instructions say you need to install the RedHat glibc2 rpms but I'm far from sure this will work on my SuSE 5.3 system - at least without breaking loads of other stuff.What I want is SuSE rpms really I suppose. Can I use SuSE 6.0 beta glibc2 rpms? Would I run the same risk with these anyway? Judging by the volume of related correspondence on this list, what we desperately need is a SuSE linux v5.3 glibc2 conversion HOWTO. I doubt this will be forthcoming from SuSE as they will want people to buy SuSE 6.0. Is there anyone out there who has installed oracle or built mozilla on SuSE 5.3? If so please share your knowledge. I've posted technical support to this list myself quite a few times now so I don't feel too ashamed to ask.... It would be a start if someone could just define what libc glibc and glibc2 are, in terms of the files they each comprise. for instance, didn't glibc originally go by the name of libc6? What are the effects on kernel compilation if I install glibc2? And is there somewhere I can read a technical summary about all these libraries and the differences between them? Help!

TCP "time-to-live" usually refers to the number of routers that the packet is allowed to go through ("hops") before being discarded, and has nothing to do with clock time. Regarding your delayed mail problem: what has probably happened here is that a mail forwarder has sat on them for 3 weeks (i.e. kept them spooled up without trying to forward them). It is unlikely to be failure to get a response from a downstream mailhost, since such failure usually (though not necessarily) times out after 5 days; 3 weeks would be very unusual, though not impossible. One way to check, if you can, would be to ask one of the recipients to extract the full headers from one of the delayed mails. There is usually a sequence of headers on the lines of ====================================================================== Received: from [209.0.51.4] (helo=mail.suse.com) by serenity.mcc.ac.uk with esmtp (Exim 1.92 #2) for efh(a)nessie.mcc.ac.uk id 0zucT5-0005Ab-00; Mon, 28 Dec 1998 13:12:19 +0000 Received: from localhost (daemon@localhost) by mail.suse.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id EAA16423; Mon, 28 Dec 1998 04:46:16 -0800 ====================================================================== which tells me, for instance, that a total time (Mon, 28 Dec 1998 13:12:19 +0000) - (Mon, 28 Dec 1998 04:46:16 -0800) = [GMT] (13:12:19) - (12:46:16) = 00:26:03 elapsed between receipt by mail.suse.com and receipt by the next host serenity.mcc.ac.uk; this is the sum of the time that mail.suse.com sat on it before trying to send it on to serenity.mcc.ac.uk, and the time it took to get a response from serenity and then transmit the mail.

[SuSE Linux] Compiling Kernet
by millerd＠bconnex.net 28 Dec '98

28 Dec '98

I have attempted to recompile my kernel suse5.3 to add networking The recompile worked without problems, I used the instructions in the Linux network book by Butzen and Hilton. However when I went to restart the kernel the startup ran for a few lines and then said it could not start a console. System is a 133Mhz intel pentium and a houston board. Any help on how to determine what I did wrong and correct this would be appreciated. I'm using my previous kernel in the meantime.

[SuSE Linux] TIFF-lib problem??
by Ted.Harding＠nessie.mcc.ac.uk 28 Dec '98

28 Dec '98

Does anyone know if there is a problem with tifflib (at any rate in SuSE-5.1)? I have a file "test1.tif" (which is a TIFF test file that came with Recognita-Plus OCR software that came with my scanner). If I try to view this file using xv, ImageMagick or the GIMP, or if I use the utility "tiffinfo" on it, then I get the following error messages: test1.tif: Warning, unknown field with tag 292 (0x124) ignored. TIFFFillStrip: test1.tif: Read error on strip 0; got 76536 bytes, expected 76537. bad data read on line 0 On the other hand, the original OCR software reads it OK, MS-Word (under WABI) imports it OK, and WordPerfect-8, StarOffice and Applixware (all Linux ports) all import it OK. I think the error messages must be coming from the libtiff library. So either: A: all the different software packages which can read it are relaxed about a fault which is present in the file, which libtiff is stringent about; or: B: the software packages which can read it are behaving correctly and the file is in fact OK, but there is something about it which libtiff cannot cope with properly when it should be able to. Can anyone say which is the case here?

Re: [SuSE Linux] RedHat RPMs

The nice thing about rpm is that it checks if it will work before it installs, so if it needs a glibc2 it will tell you so and stop, so there is little risk that something goes wrong. I should say rpm for rh5.0 or smaller will work, others perhaps, but won't do any wrong.

[SuSE Linux] Goofy Graphics on Console Screen
by glenwade＠swbell.net 28 Dec '98

28 Dec '98

While working on compiling a program, I "grep"d for a function name, but inadvertantly left off the ".c" file extension. When grep displayed a line of one of the object code files, the display began to display all the lowercase characters as graphic (linedraw?) characters. I can log off, log back in, kill and restart the getty, but to no avail. The stty command shows nothing unusual for this tty, and stty sane doesn't change anything. I've seen this happen while using terminal emulation, and resetting the emulation software cleans it up. Of course, rebooting will fix it as well. I just wondered if anyone knew a handy-dandy command to fix this short of a reboot. Rebooting seems so... un-UN*X...

d Id say the easiest method is to get wvdial. One important note is to make sure youinstall it correctly ;-) The rpm appears easiest but I had better luck with the source download the wvdial tar.tarthan untar it as in tar xzf wvdialfull filename.tar.tar then you should have a dir called wvdial cd to it and type make it goes through its compiling then stops then type make install again it installs the program *Important note here* Before you do this you need gcc so simply go to yast and create new configuration...look in development... select gcc than install that. Then the wvdial will compile effortlessly and you'll have your dialup in a fe min ;-) next is to get the wvdial config file so once its installed type wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf this will dectect your modem and create a config file in /etc if your modem is setup correctly it will dectect it. if it goes rite then edit the file /etc/wvdial.conf add your phone # username and password save it then type wvdial and you're connected! If you have any trouble post it here and someone will try and help. You can get wvdial in my sig have fun! rob <A HREF="http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/LBM.htm"><A HREF="http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/LBM.htm</A">http://www.connix.com/~dizzy73/LBM.htm</A</A>> Powered By S.u.S.E 5.3 - 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="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

[SuSE Linux] G200, XF333 and Quake
by bjorn＠algonet.se 28 Dec '98

28 Dec '98

I just upgraded my machine and now have a Matrox G200 card in it. Downloading and installing XFree86 v3.3.3 was reasonably painless (why no new sax? Would've made it completely painless.) Earlier I had an old Matrox Millennium board. With it I could (although it was by no means a pleasure) run Quake-2 in an X window. With the G200 card, any such attempt immediately crashes X. What do I need to do to make it work in X? How do I configure SVGAlib such that it takes advantage of the G200 board (at least better than at 320x200.) ? _ /Bjorn. - 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="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

Problem: how to personalize some kvt properties. Does anyone know where I should add some aliases - so that when I open a kvt terminal, they are available? Also - where to change some of the configs for a kvt window - backgrnd color, size, where on the screen it opens? I like the KDE, but would like to personalize some things. Have yet to figure out which files kvt accesses when it starts up (in /etc? opt/kde? ~/?) Thanks for any tips, suggestions, places to look.

Hi Pat, Here's the radio scoop for Linux. First you need sound working on system. I recommend OSS/Linux. This should be working. To get this to start on bootup do the following 1. fire up your fav. editor (nedit for us:) as su root. 2. head to /sbin/init.d/boot.local and add the following: ! /bin/sh # # Copyright (c) 1996 S.u.S.E.

[SuSE Linux] A Nice Koffice program
by R-Hinton＠govst.edu 27 Dec '98

27 Dec '98

I just DL'ed a 17+ meg office suite for the KDE system called Koffice. It is a tar file designed for libc5 and generally works pretty good, except for the messi icons in each application. Maybe I should go to 16 or 24 bpp and they will become clearer, perhaps. Anyone ever work with this office suite, seems pretty good, but does not start as readily as SO which calls up all other programs from one starter program. Koffice starts in individual binaries like Kword, Kspread, etc. needs a little unification here... Richard N.

I've installed RealAudio 5.0 and followed all of the installation instructions, but when I try to receive a RealAudio broadcast I receive an error #38, which states: "File compression not supported.

[SuSE Linux] Slow Video w/ STB Velocity 128
by camst65+＠pitt.edu 26 Dec '98

26 Dec '98

Hello all, I was hoping for some help. I am running Xfree86 3.3.3, and have a STB Velocity 128 card. My card is supported under the standard SVGA server. My question is about the "speed" of the card. Everything just seems to get drawn quite a bit slower than it had in windoze. For example, the cool 3-D hacks in xscreensaver, like sproingies, or the mobius strip, are _really_ slow---so slow as to not be usable. Like 2 frames per second or something. Alll the other screensavers are okay, but I just have a felong things are going slower than they should for this card. (something to do with direct draw?) Thanks, and Happy Holidays!!!

It will let you search the disk for files meeting certain characterstisics and then execute command operations on what it finds.

BeOS strikes me as evolving towards the "perfect" (almost) desktop environment, and one which could easiby co-exist with Linux...either on the same desk, perhaps "fronting" for Linux, and thriving with Linux as the server of choice (I honestly believe the "bazaar" model of develpment will work better for servers than clients since clients have to live in close touch with hard-to-program humans). We'll know a lot more by the end of 1999.

Re: [SuSE Linux] RealAudio 5.0 ERROR #38
by kingr＠icon.co.za 26 Dec '98

Could be the file in question was encoded with the new G2 version of Real Audio, or just with some codec that you don't happen to have. The version 5 Player for Linux is also not as good as the Windose version.... When I tried to get help on the Real Forum, the moderator declined to post my message - the best he could offer was to say that the files I was unable to play, he COULD play - I was greatly impressed....! By a lot of trial and error I found I could get the player to work most of the time if I set it to 8 bit audio instead of 16 bit, and for TCP transport only. The G2 Real Player for Linux is due for release in the next week or two, I believe. I think Linux has gained a lot more credibility since ver 5 for Linux was released - so hopefully the g2 player will be a better product! If not - I may consider switching our station to MP3 quite shortly......

Re: [SuSE Linux] What is the Linux version of Ctrl-Alt-Del?

run the command ps, which will list all of your processes. If you're running KDE there are a bunch of them. Look for the offending program and note the process ID number. Then run: kill -9 ID where ID is the process ID of the program to kill It shouldn't start up with KDE anymore. ----- Original Message ----- From: Zulfiqar Naushad <zulfiqar(a)shaw.wave.ca> To: <suse-linux-e(a)suse.com> Sent: Saturday, December 26, 1998 3:58 AM Subject: [SuSE Linux] What is the Linux version of Ctrl-Alt-Del? > >This is what I did. > >I ran a X(xxxxxx) command.

RE: [SuSE Linux] Winner SuSE and Runner-up RH
by kingr＠icon.co.za 26 Dec '98

26 Dec '98

<PRE> Hmmnnn..... I think there is a case for a simple gui interface - especially if it's similar to Windows. (You don't HAVE to use it, ofcourse.) Thanks to SuSE 5.3 and KDE, I am seriously looking at moving our organisation to SuSE Linux. (Which move may well mean putting my job on the line) I've been using Redhat for some time as an Internet server etc, and have no real complaints. BUT having the alternative of using a GUI like KDE suddenly opens up a world of possibilities, as far as use on the desktop is concerned, and may even mean that we could save ourselves a couple of hundred thousand bucks in the next financial year.... Like many people, I don't have the experience/training to use Redhat to anything like its real potential - but tools like YaST allow me to do things with SuSE Linux that I had'nt even dreamed of trying before. SuSE also has a "quality feel" that is not quite there with Redhat 5.1 in my opinion. There is still some way to go ofcourse - It took me a day to install the Real Audio Player under Linux (In Windows it took 30 seconds). I spent several days getting PPP to work on my home PC. At work I've been struggling mightily for a week to get PPP working on a PC which is also on an Ethernet LAN. (I've got it dialing-out okay, but no luck yet with passing any traffic over the link) I could go on.... I am only doing this (mostly in my own time) because I am an enthusiast, and, perhaps, because I am so damned tired of the unreliability of certain other operating systems. If SuSE can get to the stage where they can go the whole way in making it possible for a newbie like me to do all the things I want, without having to spend days and days looking at FAQ's and Howto's - and without having to beg for help on lists like this - THEN watchout! I suspect that day is not too far off, and will, I predict, bring about something of a revolution! Good luck to all at SuSE - my thanks and best wishes to all on the list. May you all have a peaceful and happy Christmas season, and a very prosperous and SuSE oriented New Year!

[SuSE Linux] WP8 & HP670C
by morph＠softhome.net 26 Dec '98

26 Dec '98

Hi I've successfully installed WP8 on 5.3, runs very nicely. However, I've found that I can't find a specific printer driver for my HP 670C - using the 660C driver it prints fixed pitch text ok, however, proportional fonts print with the characters misspaced, so many of them appear too close or on top of each other. Anyone else had the same problem, and/or know of a solution?
