Hi all, is anyone familar with nut (Network UPS Tools: http://www.networkupstools.org) in use with Mustek's UPS PowerMust 2000 USB and Online's P-Series (genericups upstype=14). In the README supplied with nut on SUSE 10.0 boxed version the Mustek is mentioned in the Hardware support table, and on the nut website (above) under Support - "UPS feature comparison chart" the Mustek PowerMust 400 Plus is listed only.The Online P-Series is mentioned on the UPS hardware compatibility list (stable). Has anyone used the Mustek PowerMust 2000, or the Online P-Series (YUNTO P1250)? Online claims it runs with Linux with its DataWatch UPSMAN Unix Solution software (http://www.online-ups.com/international/datawatch.asp). Any production usage experience and info welcome. :-) Al (Allemann) * EU * * LLLActive...@GMail.com * _________________________________ Gandhi's Seven Deadly Social Sins Politics without principle.

DITTO:

OK, I sinned in ignorance, like Tookie I will take the injection. http://www.savetookie.org/

Can someone help?

I'd add a spot for politics on non-political lists.

Point taken. I'd still appreciate some mature responses to my initial question. I take it that I don't have to change my personality or the colour of my skin and language before help is offered. Sadly the 'wrong' signature slipped in my posting. Won't happen again. I'm not used to be 'religious only on Sundays'. You must be correct though; you are the keepers of the knowledge we need. It may be overtaxing for others to encounter a non-schizo lifestyle that does not compartmentalise life. I did not ask for comments on my signature or nuances to it's contents. I have broken the 4 line rule, OK. It only showed my skin colour in my signature, just like many others do. I removed my offending signature to conform so that I can get help, the usual way the have-nots must behave to get what is needed from the noble haves. Pardon, I'll refrain from further infantile comments, .. but just allow me another jab at the bottomn ... sorry .. i sinned again..

No picking, you were there!

Please, repost your problem under a new thread so others with the same or similar problems may find their answers in the archives. There is a reason for threading.

PLEASE make an effort to follow the ways of the list which have been provided on many occasions to many posters in many different manners. You *may* have even seen a few, as your statement infers some familiarity with the list even though you choose to differ.

OK, will do. Just one question. Are the signatures* put on the bottom automatically by the list, or do I have to add it every time myself? Seasons greetings to you too.

The following sig is added by the list automatically.

You make your own sig. It consists of a line beginning with two dashes followed by a space and line-feed ie: --<space> and up to four lines of whatever you wish, expecting good taste. The list also adds a trailer sig to every post. It is also considered good taste to delete rather than quote sigs from responding posts.

Great, I just found out how to do it in Evolution. Just highlighting the text I want to quote and it is pasted into the body when I click on reply. The part about 'automagically' responding to the list rather than to the sender is still to be discovered. I'm learning ...

Rather then hitting the reply button use ctrl-l to have the message sent to the list. Just hitting reply will some times send the message back to the poster which is -not- the desired result.

Strange. If I use crtl-l on your mails, it opens a new mail to the list with the quoted contents and correct addresses in the To:. When I do a crtl-l on my own responses, it does not respond at all. There is also no list sig attached to my responses. :-? Al -- My sig :: Allemann

Thanks, that did it. Actually I also disabled kwallet in the geneneral settings as well (the other tab besides access controls), have not seen anything adverse yet... d. On Wednesday 14 December 2005 07:05, Andrei Verovski (aka MacGuru) wrote:

Hi,

Have you formatted your RAID volume as Reiser4 root? BTW, did you compile Reiser4 support into SuSE kernel yourself?

On Wednesday 14 December 2005 12:21, Sbs Bofh wrote:

...

SuSE 10.0 ships with Reiser4 support as optional packages ( reiser4progs-1.0.4-2 and libaal-1.0.4-2). I'm aware that Reiser4 is not in the stock kernel yet and that its inclusion seems to be a slightly contentious issue.

...however...

on a test machine I've been putting Reiser4 through its paces. The box is AMD64-powered, boots from an IDE drive and has a 3ware RAID controller with 4x 300GB drives, as a RAID5 array w/ hot spare. The entire /dev/sda device was set up in to LVM2 and there's a 838GB Reiser4 filesystem on it.

So far, so good. I've loaded hundreds of GB of data and set up a mailserver with Maildirs and I have to say the performance is impressive.

EXCEPT, I get fairly regular corruption on the Reiser4 filesystem, which can only be fixed with a "fsck.reiser4 --build-fs" (although it does fix the corruption and I haven't yet found any evidence of lost data - lost+found is always empty).

After contacting Vitaly Fertman at Namesys for assistance it appears that this is due to an issue with "plugin set fields" (his words) in the 1.0.4version of the Reiser4 bits and he recommended I upgrade to 1.0.5.

Are the 1.0.4 > 1.0.5 changes likely to be backported by SuSE into reiser4progs-1.0.4-2 and updated packages released? Should I be filing a bug on this somewhere, or will the SuSE people already know about this? Can anyone confirm what version of Reiser4 tools is in the latest OpenSuSE 10.1alpha?

I really don't want to get into building packages myself - the whole point of our evaluation is to test out Reiser4 for use on production machines and we're not going to be building Reiser4 ourselves for a production machine even if the performance is great :-)

If OpenSuSE 10.1 has the 1.0.5 Reiser4 tools then I might as well upgrade the box to OpenSuSE 10.1 for our testing, even if it is still an alpha release.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

James
