[S.u.S.E. Linux] kbiff not finding X
by mperry＠basin.com 20 Jul '98

20 Jul '98

I would like to try out kbiff on SuSE 5.1 but it continually reports it cannot find X in the compilation process. I have tried the usual paths but cannot seem to get it find whatever its looking for in X; either libs or includes. Anyone have kbiff working? Care to share how you compiled it under SuSE?

[S.u.S.E. Linux] SuSE and QT

20 Jul '98

Funny. I came across this today in my mail... I thought it was interesting sense Michael L's post re the RH comment. This is totally unrelated by I still thought it interesting.... Basically, I think it's an extension of Gnome/KDE war with a 'recomendation' at the end to not support SuSE just because it comes with QT ! If it was inappropriate for me to forward this from the kernel list let me know by mail and I'll not repeat...I just thought SuSE linux people might find it 'interesting'. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 18 Jul 1998 16:30:53 -0600 From: Richard Stallman <rms(a)santafe.edu> Reply-To: rms(a)gnu.org To: konold(a)alpha.tat.physik.uni-tuebingen.de, kde(a)lists.netcentral.net, gnome-hackers(a)nuclecu.unam.mx, linux-kernel(a)vger.rutgers.edu Subject: Re: Forward of posting from RMS Linus wrote: I also don't think that it can be argued that a library has to be on all distributions in order for it to be acceptable: historically many commercial UNIX vendors didn't (maybe still do not, but I no longer care since I haven't used one in quite some time) include the development environment in their standard distribution. They had the run-time parts, but not the link-time C library, for example. This is actually a simple and straightforward issue. The reason the GNU GPL permits linking with these libraries is explicit in the wording. Here are the words: the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, In all of these cases, that I have heard of, the C library for these proprietary systems is distributed either with the kernel or with the C compiler. Either way, these words explicitly permit linking with that library. In GPL version 1, this text said "with the operating system", and as a result, it did not handle the case where the compiler and the C library are distributed as a separate package from the kernel. Unix systems which did not come with C compilers began to appear around that time, so I changed these words in GPL version 2. Someone else wrote: I don't buy the "so in general it's not" weaseling, because that declares SuSE to somehow "not be a normal Linux distribution". Whether SuSE (or any other specific GNU/Linux distribution) is a normal one is not the question. The question is what is normal practice for distributing the kernel, the compiler, and other major components of the system--not directly about any particular system distribution. In other words, not "Is SuSE normal?" but rather, "Is including Qt with Linux normal? Is including Qt with GCC normal?" I do hope that SuSE's practice of including non-free software in a system distribution will not become normal. After working so hard to give people the chance to be free, I would be sad to see them throw it away for a little convenience. So I hope people will not use, install or recommend SuSE. But that is another issue. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

sgml(-)tools coming with SuSE 5.2 (`Snapshot') seem to expect a utility /usr/bin/nsgmls, and it doesn't find it. Actually also emacs/psgml could cooperate with that thing.

After a few days up and running a program/command called 'sh' will come in and take all of my idle processes. It wouldn't be bad to take the idle processes for most people, but I'm in a group that uses all of the idle times of computers for distributed computing. I've tried killing the process (i got no errors, so im assuming it worked), and it works for about a second untilthe process gets a new PID and the problem starts over. Also, every two seconds it will take on a new PID making that problem of killing it that much harder. any help would be appreciated. it did this with 5.1 and now with 5.2 if that helps -- Aaron Seelye <A HREF="http://revolution.3-cities.com/~roberto"><A HREF="http://revolution.3-cities.com/~roberto</A">http://revolution.3-cities.com/~roberto</A</A>> - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] S.u.S.E.-3.0, glibc, and Linux headers
by Ted.Harding＠nessie.mcc.ac.uk 19 Jul '98

19 Jul '98

Hi Folks, There is some correspondence going on on the redhat-devel list about the relationship between libc5, glibc (= libc6) and the Linux headers (include files). I'm not sure I'm following it well, but it seems that glibc is intended to be "self-contained" as far as possible, whereas with libc5 on Linux there may be considerable dependency on the Linux headers (depending on the program being compiled). Whatever the details may be, this suggests that the config file and Makefile for compiling any software may need to be substantially restructured in order to compile cleanly under glibc. S.u.S.E. plan to base 3.0 on glibc (right?). So will all the software sources distributed by S.u.S.E. have their Makefiles etc suitably restructured? Or will we live for a time with some software sources glibc-ed, and the rest still libc5? It strikes me that there is rich scope for inconsistency and confusion here. Or am I being paranoid? Enlightenment welcome!

I wasn't exactly in a panic :) However, I see no reason to order now for a maybe delivery in Sept. What I don't understand is why SuSE announces an upgrade 4 months before they intend to deliver but haven't put any kind of discount program in place. There must be other people like me who would buy now (always a good thing!) but find out there will be an upgrade shortly (sounds like a good thing!) but are told there won't be any discount program (a very bad thing!!!). The obvious result is that I don't want to buy two packages in a row at full price and will a) buy someone else's package who has a better marketing program, b) wait and perhaps change my mind, or c) spend the $$$ on something else altogether. Afterall, if they let me buy 5.2 now and offered a reasonable upgrade price they would have my $$$ in their pocket now and me on the hook for Sept!!!

Tho I am still downloading it as I type this. know of a better soulution? I have native sound support and everything works. (or looks that way <g>) Every kinda sound I have been able to play, I though I did test midi a while back, but I guess I didn't. KMID is so silent..yawn..dumbarse KDE.. 14 0one on this huge dl, wish it was on the SuSE disks..sigh.. Steve BTW- Netscape(Communicator) 4.5b1 rocks..

Hi all!, I'm trying to get Afterstep to run on my system. (I have 486/33 8mg main with 4.4.1 SuSE / kernel 2.029.) I added the file I made when I tried to compile the program.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] 5.1 reboots on CDROM mount
by jkarns＠ares.csd.net 19 Jul '98

19 Jul '98

I have 5.1 installed on a Compaq Presario 1070 laptop machine. After having installed, things seemed to work fine for a few weeks, but then I started having the problem that the machine would immediately reboot when issuing the mount command for the cdrom (IDE) device. Actually, I had also experienced this behavior on a desktop machine (486, all SCSI including the CD drive). I have networking, pcmcia, and a few other things configured, but nothing too involved. The same thing happens when I boot from the rescue/install CD, so I don't think it's specific to the kernel that I configured. I've been subscribed here for a few months, and haven't seen any msgs mentioning such a problem. Has anyone here had this happen to them? --------------------------------------------------------------------- John Karns jkarns(a)ares.csd.net - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Redhat sucks, really ...
by cruel＠rocketmail.com 19 Jul '98

19 Jul '98

I bought and installed RH 5.1 for glibc, that Suse, plans to use in the near future. RH sucks, install program was a joke, Web site looks like a cash cow, software took hours to setup, cost more then Suse, for a lot less. Little things that I have come to expect and take for granted since I been using Suse where not included. I had a hell of a time compiling a kernel. My system was a mess. If I really hate someone, and wanted them to suffer, hours and hours in front of their PC, I would recommand RH. I have used FreeBSD, RedHat, and Suse. I liked Suse and FreeBsd. But for me Suse takes the cake, for ease of use and applications that come with it, design and overall feel. Redhat for me was a joke, I felt cheated, cost me 59$, made me sick, I feel scare to give it away, poor sucker who takes it would try to install it, and come back and kill me. RH makes the 39$ I pay for suse, feels like real a bargain. === john bitar cruel(a)rocketmail.com ---hekate(a)intergate.bc.ca wrote: > > > > On Sat, 18 Jul 1998, Robert Williams wrote: > > > > > RH is reminding me of Microsoft all the time. > > I have always thought RH wants to dominate the Linux market...and have > said many times they seem like the M$ of Linux. > > -M > > One is most dishonest towards one's God; he is not _permitted_ to sin. > > mail: mjohnson(a)pop3.aebc.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 > _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Mounting of CD ROM at boot time
by pmoon＠mindspring.com 19 Jul '98

19 Jul '98

Hello guys & Gals, I just wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem or might be able to offer me some suggestions. I previosly had suse 5.2 installed and running fine in a TX Pro mother board with an AMD K6-233 .. I recenltly upgraded to an ASUS 440BX 100 Mother board and a Celeron-266 processor. Everything seems to work fine, accept that if I boot from a floppy created from yast, the boot messages say no responce from devie hdc and the CD is not available after boot, If I boot with the suse CD to exesting install on sda1, the cdrom is recognised just fine... If booted from floppy, the mount command says block device not found... Very strange... I have recompiled and upgraded to the 2.0.34 kernel and enabled all that was when the system was working properly.. Still no CD unless I boot off the CD...

[S.u.S.E. Linux] we should probably let this thread die now

Well, I didn't mean to start a dist war. Obviously, I use SuSE because I like SuSE. And while I don't intentionally go around bashing any other dists, my feelings about any other dist aren't relevant or pertinent to this forum. My point was merely that someone affiliated with a distribution, no matter what that affiliation is, should be more cautious with their words concerning other members of the linux community. If I'm on irc, and my host is suse.com, then by God, even if I'm just the janitor at SuSE's offices, I'm going to do my best not to say anything to embarass SuSE. I just found an anti-SuSE comment from someone(a)somebox.redhat.com twice as insulting as if it were from someone not affiliated with another dist, that's all. -- ==================================================================== Michael Lankton <A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org"><A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A">http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A</A>> ==================================================================== - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Hi all- I was trying to compile the ACM flight sim, when the configure script bailed and informed me that my system did not support "rand" or "random". Are these part of the C libraries or some other randome number generator thing? A random number generator starts at boot. I was alos told by somewone on another list that random is a daemon whose purpose eluded the messenger. Any ideas? Anybody here ever try to get ACM to work?

18 Jul '98

This was in a recent edupage: LINUX RISING The Unix-based, volunteer-supported operating system Linux, created in 1991 by Linus Torvalds, a 28-year-old Finn who now works for a chip-design firm in Silicon Valley, has been gaining acceptance in mainstream computing environments, and companies such as Oracle, Sun and IBM have plans to use the program in some of their products. Linux is free, and the only way to earn money on it is to provide additional services, such as offering tested versions of the program along with installation support.

Re: [S.u.S.E. Linux] IPX Problems
by stefan.seifert＠informatikbuero.com 18 Jul '98

18 Jul '98

IPX-fundamentals are a mystery to me but from all the informations I gathered I came to this: ipx_configure --auto_primary=on --auto_interface=on ipx_interface add eth0 802.2 0xa01 I use both auto_interface and ipx_interface because after starting ipx_configure ipx_interface doesn't know a eth0 with 802.2. Using ipx_configure check eth0 802.2 I got an address that seems to be right. Using TCP/IP I get connected to our server but to mount the Novell- Volumes I have to use IPX. Windows has no problems to do this. My kernel has IPX and support for my AMD-ethernet card. The IPX-HowTo says that there must be some "IPX and ncps boot- messages" but I didn't see anything like this. thanks to Elijah for response :-) Stefan Seifert E-Mail: Stefan.Seifert(a)Informatikbuero.com home: www.ifb.at/stefan - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Don't panic! You can order 5.3 from SuSE right now and they'll send it as soon as it's out. That's what I'm doing . The SuSE folks are always happy to please. And BTW, 5.3 is not a secret, either.

I configured by Yast 0.89.2 the connection to my Italian provider (IOL) and i activated diald: I chose a generic ISP Country ALL Setup default route ON Use diald ON Switch on/off deb ON Authentication PAP ...... When i try a telnet to host.domain.it the diald starts, make the connection to my provider and stop this connection immediately. In the attached file you can find the output of my /var/log/messages, i can't put it here because my modem shut down while sending this mail. :-( :-(( The problem is : ppp not replacing existing default route to sl0[127.0.0.2] why? Who can help me? When i try to start the connection to find bugs with (see below) everything is ok and the connection is good. conan:/root # /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-up also here you can find the /var/log/messages in the attached file I stopped the connection with the script /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-down Please see the attached file. I have another problem: when i try to make a query to the DNS while the connection is ok everything works well but if the connection is broken every program (es: Netscape) stops to work for many minutes because it thinks that DNS is very far and wait a lot of time to understand that DNS doesn't exist any more. How i can solve this problem? Thank you.

Ooops! I was looking at the beta4 files! On closer look on 1.0 files, they all appear to have been built from the 1.0 source RPMs with one exception.

On many UNIX systems, you can enable filec, which fills in the remainder of a filename when you hit the escape key. This doesn't work with the default shell in SuSE. I know that I can use the "*" when enough characters have been entered that the file name is unambiguous, but this is more tedious. Is there an equivalent command in linux for the bsh shell?

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Perhaps a stupid question, but...
by beamanj＠novaquest.com 16 Jul '98

16 Jul '98

Actually, I have a couple of questions: 1. What is the newest version of the Linux Kernal? 2. I hear a lot about how RedHat 5.1 and SUSE 5.3 are different because of libc or glibc? What does that mean? Also, which is RedHat and which is SUSE?

This may be a really stupid question, but I have never had anything scsi so I really don't know. I am getting ready to order a new mboard/cpu, and the for a very small amount extra I can get the same motherboard I'm looking at now with an on-board scsi adapter. Both my hard drives are ide, but I need another one soon. Can I run both ide and scsi drives on my system or can you not mix and match? -- ==================================================================== Michael Lankton <A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org"><A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A">http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A</A>> ==================================================================== - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

<PRE> Hi, i have a problem with my new S.u.S.E. 5.2. I'm sure that the problem is mine, and not of S.U.S.E because I think it is a brilliant O.S. I configured by Yast 0.89.2 the connection to my Italian provider (IOL) and i activated diald: I chose a generic ISP Country ALL Setup default route ON Use diald ON Switch on/off deb ON Authentication PAP ...... When i try a telnet to host.domain.it the diald starts, make the connection to my provider and stop this connection immediately. In the attached file you can find the output of my /var/log/messages, i can't put it here because my modem shut down while sending this mail. :-( :-(( The problem is : ppp not replacing existing default route to sl0[127.0.0.2] why? Who can help me? When i try to start the connection to find bugs with (see below) everything is ok and the connection is good. conan:/root # /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-up also here you can find the /var/log/messages in the attached file I stopped the connection with the script /etc/suseppp/scripts/ppp-down Please see the attached file. I have another problem: when i try to make a query to the DNS while the connection is ok everything works well but if the connection is broken every program (es: Netscape) stops to work for many minutes because it thinks that DNS is very far and wait a lot of time to understand that DNS doesn't exist any more.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] extent of Linux Snapshot
by Jochen_Hayek＠ACM.org 16 Jul '98

16 Jul '98

Hi, I'm just trying to be awkward again. It just happened to me, that I mounted one of the `other five' CD-ROMs of the SuSE Linux Snapshot. Actually this happens `far less' than 10 times during the lifetime of a Linux Snapshot collection. (You know what I mean ...) So I thought, I don't really need those `other five' CD-ROMs. I could quite well do with just the 1st of them, the `Basic system'. That's what I'm really keen on, that's what I really see as SuSE's achievement and `extra value', its packaged Linux distribution. It's really *not*, that I want to save money. (That `Basic system' is already worth that price on its own.) It's just, that I have Internet access wherever I need it, so I should I have that stuff on CD-ROM? I actually do quite often something like that: johayek@Hayek5 $ zcat /cdrom/INDEX.gz | fgrep psgml ./CD3/elisp-archive/modes/psgml-0.4b3.tar.gz But that's only because that's the quickest way to get a pointer.

There isn't anything of substance about DHCP in the manual, and the SuSE help database didn't have anything either. I am concerned that if I configure DHCP by hand, and then run YaST, all of my changes will be overwritten by YaST. Linuxconf under RedHat has this problem.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Attention:suse-linux-e WindowMaker users with a sense of humor
by satan3＠home.com 14 Jul '98

14 Jul '98

I have created the first ever Sailor Moon theme for WindowMaker! If you have a sense of humor and/or like anime, and use WindowMaker, you might want to take a look. I have put it up on my WindowMaker page as a tar.bz2, and there are a couple of screenshots of it as well. The tar.bz2 is a little heavy at 2.6 megs, but it contains rxvt pixmaps as well as a collection of wav files. Included is a shell script that will display a random rxvt background from the theme each time rxvt is called. Also, I have made the first ever Sailor Moon dock app for WindowMaker! Ok, actually it's the rxvt shell script hacked to play a random wav file from the theme with wavplay (not included; if you don't have wavplay just substitute whatever app you use to play .wavs). You can enter the script as the argument for the dock icon and double clicking the dock will then produce a random sound bite from Sailor Moon. :) I think the documentation I included is pretty good, so it shouldn't be too tough to figure out. Enjoy! If you stop by my site to take a look, be sure to take a peek at the cheesy java applet I added to my linux page. ps If you use netscape and haven't registered bz2 as a mime type with netscape you may have to hold "shift" while you click to download, provided anyone is goofy enough to download it in the first place :) -- ==================================================================== Michael Lankton <A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org"><A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A">http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A</A>> ==================================================================== - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Request for digestified messages
by arunkhan＠xnet.com 10 Jul '98

10 Jul '98

Hello all... I have been requesting SuSE folks to have a digestfied list sent out approx. 2/day, similar to the one at RedHat and Caldera. The digestified list could be threaded (subject and time stamp). I prefer digestified list. Looking at the number of messages, I feel the SuSE list has also reached a critical mass. Personally, I find it difficult to keep up with so many individual messages even though I have a filter to sort them into a separate folder (not to mention all the junk mail from bounces). If you are in favor of a digestified list, please send email to the SuSE folks (I am sure they are also reading this) and let them know. Perhaps, they will consider it if there is enough interest. Thanks for your time. Arun Khan - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

After some time the script terminated. According to the handbook, p 269, top, four files should be generated in /etc/suseppp, but I see only three - <provider>.cf is missing (in casu "generic").

How do I get it? How do I install whatever it is? Ok.. I had tons of problems getting Beta 4 to work and it turned out that it was me that was screwing up. This is what I did. Go to SuSE's web site and go to a mirror near you and download ALL the most recent files. Then, uninstall all your old KDE stuff. ALL of it. Do this with YaST if ya like. Install the lib file first, then base, then (damn, can't remember the rest..) But anyway, it should fix you up though.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] INETD and Firewall
by subb3＠ibm.net 10 Jul '98

10 Jul '98

I have 2 questions. One ==== I trying to stay with configuring only through YAST. But it doesn't always seems to be convenient. For example, I wanted to change the configurations in the dynamic linker configuration file (ld.so.conf). I could not do it through YAST, so I did it manually. Nexttime when I run SuSEConfig or YAST, I get messages like "/etc/ld.so.conf has been modified. Leaving it untouched." Should I be concerned about such messages from YAST? Two ==== I started the Firewall using YAST. I want to limit telnet and ftp, from internal hosts ONLY. It looks like my systems are visible from the Internet. I want my systems to access Internet hosts, but I don't want to give access to my machines. Can this be done through YAST? If I make modifications to /etc/inetd.conf manually, will it disturb the integrity of the YAST configuration DB? Thank you.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Am I paranoid, is it Microsoft, or what?
by zentara＠mindspring.com 09 Jul '98

09 Jul '98

Hello, I have SuSE 5.1 running, and I had to go out of town. So I took my PC apart and hid it like any respectable paranoid would do. Up to my leaving, SuSE ran beautifully, using EzPPP as my Internet connect. I have sung the praises of SuSE to everyone I have met. When I returned home, and tried to log on using EzPPP, I would get error messages, when trying to use TCP/IP to Mindspring. The messages basically said that there was no entry for any nameserver at Mindspring. I couldn't connect to pop.mindspring.com nor any web site. The system worked perfectly 1 month ago. What happened? I can use Windows95 to get online, but Linux is not allowed. In the intervening month, while I was gone, Microsoft bought off some judge to allow them to distribute Win98 with IE4 Browser built in, and Mindspring's stock just recently split, with a tremendous gain. Do you smart guys out there see why I'm paranoid? Does anyone else out there feel that some government entity has aligned with Microsoft, to force everyone onto the Microsoft bandwagon? What does this say about the Internet? Who controls it? You can call me paranoid, but this did occur. I'm using Win95 right now, to upload this. I freely admit that I might have made some error in SuSE configuration, but why did it work fine 1 month ago, and stonewalls me now? If anything, this speaks for more strigent anti-trust legislation against Microsoft. Of course, that would be useless if Microsoft is a front for some intelligence agency , as I suspect. As any "paranoid" knows..... you can't fight "them".

[S.u.S.E. Linux] gimp and xvidtune
by jaf13595＠Bayou.UH.EDU 09 Jul '98

09 Jul '98

When I start X at 32 bits/pixel, Gimp gives me a segmentation fault as soon as I start it. At 16 bits/pixel, Gimp functions normally. I am running SuSE 5.2 with whatever version of XF86 that comes with it. The Xserver I am using is XSuSE_Elsa_GLoria. Another problem of minor note is that xvidtune will not run. It will show the refresh rates, but will go no further. any suggestions (especially on how to fix the gimp problem) would be greatly appreciated. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

[S.u.S.E. Linux] ftp administration
by ariggins＠home.com 09 Jul '98

09 Jul '98

I'm running SuSE 5.2, and have some questions about ftp. I haven't modified the default setup done by yast at installation time. I use a cable modem, so it's set up like a lan. Right now, anyone can do an anonymous ftp login to my machine. I'd like to keep this feature so fellow students at my university can upload/download programs and files, unless there's a security concern. How secure is this setup? Am I susceptible to hacking? If so, how do I eliminate anonymous logins? Where is the directory tree for an anonymous ftp login? I've looked, but can't find it. thanks, Alan Riggins -- / / __ _ _ _ _ __ __ / /__ / / / \// //_// \ \/ / /____/ /_/ /_/\/ /___/ /_/\_\ mail to: ariggins(a)home.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

Hi, Where might the optimal place be to start the postgres daemon at boot. The documentation with postgres provides an example for the /etc/inittab file.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Why is fetchmail so slow on mymachine?

I am trying to use fetchmail to fetch all my mail from my ISP's POP3 server to my machine. I managed to set .fetchmailrc so it connects to the ISP's POP3 server and start downloading the mail. The problem is that it is extremely slow. It can take up to five (!) minutes to download a 2K message which takes almost no time when I use netscape to get the same message. It basically gets stuck on the line that says SMTP> MAIL FROM:<owner-suse-linux-e(a)suse.com> SIZE=2619 It doesn't matter what message it is.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Success story number xxxx: Thinkpad+SUSE5.2, WORKS!
by efh4v＠virginia.edu 08 Jul '98

08 Jul '98

Ok, here is one success story that may help other prospective Thinkpad + SUSE 5.2 users. As some of you may recall, some time ago I posted a question regarding a problem that I had with my laptop, where none of the supplied boot disks would boot up my machine. Well, the SUSE folks came to the rescue! They built a test bootdisk that certainly works (at least on my thinkpad, 365x). I am able to boot up, install the packages, configure, etc.. However, I still needed to recompile the kernel with the appropriate options before I was able to boot off the hard drive. No problem there. Anyway, again, SuSE folks: THANKS! Keep on giving Linux a good name! -- Edgar - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Anyway for about 3 weeks now I've not got anything from my non-PC list. I sent two emails to the owner, I'm still on the list and I should be getting the emails. I can surf over to the groups web site without problem. After I sent the first email to the owner I got an anwser, but not to the second. Is it possible that my ISP is blocking everything with this address? For example: If my ISP wanted to stop all email to and from "@commie.com" (this is not my group) could they do it? Or is there someplace in Germany that could do this? My ISP uses SuSE with a Apache proxy. ----------------------------------------- Jim Hatridge Germany hatridge(a)straubing.baynet.de M$ -- Ghostdriver* on the road to the future!

Cool :) A few more requests : - Apache 1.3 with SSL (now available -> look at freshmeat.net) - Micq, Licq, etc... (micq.ml.org : works great!) - Some more IRC-clients (for X/KDE/term : BitchX for ex.) - Qmail (www.qmail.org) (as unsupported package... but it would be nice if it was possible to choose between Sendmail and the powerful Qmail at installation time) - Proftpd (www.proftpd.org) : simplier to configure as wuftpd - Every available progams to interface with a Palmpilot - Gnome... (yes, really! it's not beacause Redhat refuse to put KDE on their CD's that SuSE has to ignore Gnome). - Bind 8.x.x (4.x.x is obsolete...) - Staroffice (ok, I know it's not possible :-).

[S.u.S.E. Linux] Problems with X
by babylon51＠ibm.net 08 Jul '98

08 Jul '98

Hi I'm a new S.u.S.E. Linux user and I am having problems cofiguring my X-windows system. I tried to configure it at first with XF86Setup and I got an errno111 and a message that the server could not be started. After that I tried to configure it with xf86config but I failed there too. I have a diamond stealth 3d 2000 with 4MB Ram, could someone tell me how to configure my system so that it runs the X-Windows. What configurations do I have to do to start KDE???

Hell folks, SuSE 5.1 here. I am able to cat foo.au > /dev/audio and hear sound through the speakers. I am able to use rvplayer to listen to Real Audio on the net. I am not able to listen to an audio CD through the speakers (headphones work). /dev/sndstat looks ok (will post if needed). the files in /dev (/dev/audio, /dev/dsp, /dev/midi, /dev/mixer, /dev/music, /dev/patmgr, /dev/sequencer) all look to have the correct major and minor numbers. /proc/devices shows the sound driver compiled in.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] QPOPPER Fscked
by hettar＠teleport.com 08 Jul '98

Hi SuSE I just spent 4 hours as a lowbie fixing my system after a QPOPPER hack got into my system. It was prob just a prank.. as mp3s were played while I didn't play em but /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow was fscked with. had a "mixed up" shadow and passwd was chmod 600ed This was not so bad looking at it from an experts view.. but I had no clue how to fix at first... the problems this gave me was: whoami came up with: cannot find username for UID 500 a grep: grep 500 /etc/passwd with: hettar:x:500:100::/home/hettar:/bin/bash grep hettar /etc/shadow with: hettar:Le7L5GF6Koty2:10415:0:10000:::: Well all this made passwd not function, I had a "I have no name!@warhammer:/home/hettar" Prompt I could not log on as a normal user. only root would (lucky) My fix: redo /etc/shadow and redo /etc/passwd and comment these out of inetd.conf pop3, imapd, midident and then killall -HUP inetd looking for someone logged onto your machine this way? netstat | grep pop3 Anyways, my head hurts..I am fixed up I think Steven Udell hettar(a)teleport.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

Well, pnpdump found nothing I conclude once again that IBM hardware is trash. I have an IMB Aptiva, and its mwave sound/modem card is.. well just plain wierd... I had already planned to get a new sound card, I guess I'll be getting one. I don't really want to deal with that card anymore. Thank you for your help, I now know how to probe my card, and I know that I'll be able to use it with my new card.

[S.u.S.E. Linux] kde1.0prerelease1.5
by satan3＠home.com 08 Jul '98

08 Jul '98

My preference in windowmanagers is well documented, but I always keep kde installed because I like the file manager. I uninstalled kde beta 3 and qt-1.32 using yast today, and downloaded the sources for qt-1.33 and kde1.0pre1.5. Each of the nine packages of the kde distribution compiled and installed without complaint, quite a feat for such a large suite. I removed the .kde directory and .kaudioserver in my home directory and fired up the new kde. I have to say I'm impressed. kde has become very stable and they have improved it's speed. Anyone running an earlier version will be very happy with the new release. Be sure to get pre1.5 which was released July 2, there is an earlier prerelease out there as well, which I haven't tried. -- ==================================================================== Michael Lankton <A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org"><A HREF="http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A">http://tasteslikechicken.ml.org</A</A>> ==================================================================== - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

Hi, I have installed ppp networking with both yast and then KDE (not together) and neither have worked. KDE setup looked really easy. The computer dials my ISP, logs in and gets the WELCOME message and then hangs saying "starting pppd". In XDM on the command line I type "ppp-up generic" which starts something going, but again it hangs, this time before I hear dialing. I've tried installing PPP again (twice) and it doesn't make a difference. Any ideas on what the problem is?
