Hi, all:

        I have a IBM 300 PL PC.  It has a s3 Trio 3D video card built in on the
mother
board.  I am trying to install RH6.0.  However, the video is only
VGA16.  NT and Win95
can get higher colors.  I am wondering if anyone can get a better color
than VGA16.  I
did check out the video card support for XFree86.  For that type of
card, it did say
XFREE_VGA16.  Does it mean I cannot have better color than VGA16?  I
have not tried other options.

Thanks

John Wang.

The problem with that is I have no other ATM hardware and I already own an
Ancor 8 port Fibre Channel switch. Given my druthers (BTW if anyone sees them
let me know), I would like to use hardware I already own.

No, last time I checked one of my systems was running Linux. As these are
Linux groups, I have every right to post here and talk smack back to people
who claim Intel is doing the public wrong. Last time I checked you all had
IP addresses, MAC addresses and some like Sun boxes and several other Uber
processor machines had serial numbers.

Subject: SBLive Linux Drivers HELP!!!!
Date: 6 May 1999 02:24:18 GMT

I just tried installing the SBLive drivers for Linux, but I keep getting 
undefined symbol errors and my sound is still not working. I've tried the 
automatic install and the manual install...although I'm not sure I did the 
manual install correctly. I'm running kernel 2.2.5 with Mandrake (RedHat 5.2).
Anyway ANY help on this matter would certainly be 
greatly appreciated!! Here is the readme file:

Installation Instructions for Soundblaster Live! Linux drivers (v0.1 beta)
======================================================================

Where to Download
================
ftp://ftp.soundblaster.com/pub/creative/beta/sblive-0.1b.tar.gz

Kernel Versions
===============
Modularized drivers are available for:
- Kernel 2.0.36-0.7 (non-SMP) (Redhat 5.2)
- Kernel 2.2.5 (non-SMP)

The drivers have been tested on these versions of the Linux kernel and will
not work with other kernel versions.


Requirements
============
- The kernel must be compiled with soundcard support as a module
  (CONFIG_SOUND_MODULE = 1)
- There must be no soundcard drivers compiled into the kernel


Automated Installation
======================
1. If you are using a non-Redhat distribution, proceed to Manual
Installation
2. Run ./install_sblive
3. If the program reports that the driver is installed, you are done.
4. If there are any error messages, proceed to Manual Installation.


Manual Installation
===================
1. Determine your kernel sound modules installation location
     (usually /lib/modules/2.x.y/misc)
2. Copy the appropriate driver to that location as sblive.o
     (eg. /lib/modules/2.x.y/misc/sblive.o)
3. Unload all existing soundcard drivers, including soundcore
4. Remove all old soundcard references from /etc/conf.modules
5. Add a new reference to the SBLive driver in /etc/conf.modules:
     (eg. "alias sound sblive" or "alias char-major-14 sblive")
6. If your kernel is compiled with version information, add the following
   lines to /etc/conf.modules after the previous statement:
     pre-install sblive insmod soundcore
     post-remove sblive rmmod soundcore
7. Load the SBLive driver: "modprobe sblive"

=========================


Thanks!

Hi

I have an HP Deskjet HP1600CM printer (Postscript and Ethernet) that I

I also have Samba installed but not fully working yet.

Can anyone tell me in laymans term HOW I would get to print to this

Yep. But you should check that you get one with a compatible video card.
Check the hardware compatiblity list. I'd get one with a TNT ( Dell use
these ... ) 

btw, if you're buying a machine *for* linux, why not insist on linux 
pre-installed ? there are linux shops who can give you a better price 
than Dell ( Maybe Dell can preload it on an optiplex for you nowadays also.
It's worth asking )

The problem is that you're probably getting quotes on name brand 
components and comparing that to the price of a machine built 
from cheap shit. If you do the number carefully, you'll probably find
that it costs about the same to build your own. 

Building a computer for $500 is possible, but 
the components will all be rubbish . Building only saves if you 
already have half of the components lying around the house.

Do you really think that you have twice as many rights on these newsgroups
since you run Linux on a _dual_ system?

>and talk smack back to people
>who claim Intel is doing the public wrong. 

Intel _is_ doing the public wrong (not only because of introducing PSN).

And, you were not talking smack _back_; you were just talking smack.

We can certainly argue whether posting those warnings in the newsgroup (not 
for the first time) is appropriate or not, and actually I think it _is_ 
appropriate, because public awareness of PSN is very important (this is the 
only way to avoid the widest up to date invasion of privacy).
Truly, I think this warning is more appropriate for linux.hardware, but 
not quite -- for linux.misc.

>Last time I checked you all had IP addresses, MAC addresses

>processor machines had serial numbers.

You _think_ there is no difference between the above numbers and the
PSN thing. I _think_ you are wrong. Let me try to justify my point of view:
MAC addresses are only relevant when we are talking about MAC users, IP 
numbers are usually dynamically-assigned, SUN boxes are not a common thing 
at home, and "who's Uber?". 
OTOH, when we are talking about "pentium inside", it is more than half 
of home computers. In a few years newer pentiums with PSN may infest 
more than half of the world. Add here that Intel may force weaker companies 
to follow its rules. I agree that one needs a license plate on a car, but I 
do not want to have one on my home PC...
 
I know that one day there could be "you can only post messages in this
newsgroup if you enable the PSN feature of your computer", or "the weather
forecast service is only available to users with a valid PSN", and other
"Enable PSN to enter ..." crap. I just do not want someone to watch me all 
the time. 

Also, I do not want to pay for a processor one third of what I pay for such 
a big thing as a car; there are many reasons to wish that AMD survives.

a.

PS. Believe it or not, my computer runs as well after I remove "pentium inside" 
sticker; it just does not need that sticker to run!

Are you trying to make it using the same disk ? This may be the problem.

I have the same SCSI adaptor as you. I just booted from the CD. Your 
CD is probably (?) on the SCSI chain or /dev/hd{a,b} , so my bet is that
you could do the same and use the floppy as a coaster.

Actually, IRQ may not show up until you are using a particular device.

See if I understand this correctly, If I change the system bios, then
that change will affect each operating system I currently have on my

Subject: using AMD K2 in a heavily loaded web server???
Date: Wed, 5 May 1999 21:18:39 -0700

Hello

Anyone using an AMD K6 in their web server?
What is your configuration and how is the
performance under heavy load compare to
Intel?

Thanks

Stephen

Subject: "soft" modems in emachines
Date: Thu, 06 May 1999 04:21:21 GMT

Has anyone had any success configuring the modems that come in the
emachines? 

Specifically, I have one of the 333cs models.  

It's configured on COM4 IRQ3 under windows, but when I reboot into
Linux, it's IRQ doesn't show up under /proc/interrupts.  I've tried
talking to it at ttyS3 with no luck.

I've also tried finding it with pnpdump, but it doesn't show up there
either.

I'm wondering if I'd be better off just buying a cheap modem.

Thanks in advance,
David Greig
