Here's the latest. I get the cards working (at least the one for the DSL)..
but I can't connect to the Internet.
I am using Verizon as my IP, configuration as follows:
Provider: bellatlantic.net
Primary DNS:
Secondary DNS:
Account info (filled in correctly)
When LM tests the connection, I see the DSL modem activity light blink like
crazy, yet it won't connect. I keep getting time-out errors. I am assuming
that this may be from not having the DNS set(?). In Win98, the DNS is
disabled, and I haven't found anything on verizon's website about DNS.....
so.... I don't know.

For the original problem --- make sure you don't have a"Win" printer which
depends on a special Windows program to work. That could also be the problem
in the second case as well. As I recall RedHat has some sort of graphical
printer control panel --- you could try that.
If you have a "Win" printer just say goodbye. Not too bad inkjets that will
work are available for about $149. There are hardware compatiblity howto's
around, and source Forge has a decent printer and driver database for Linux.

Configuration files *ARE* different between distributions, although
there are certain commonalities. How much you'll be disturbed by the
differences depends on what you've learned and how different the
distributions are. Red Hat and Mandrake are pretty similar to each
other, but SuSE differs more from either of them than they do from each
other.
> Is the new software in mandrake 7.2 (or Suse) all that ?
That depends on your needs. You can get almost anything in Red Hat that
you can get in Mandrake or SuSE, though.

Mandrake ships with Pentium optimizations on most or all of its
packages, so it may have a slight speed edge on Pentium and above
systems -- ASSUMING that no other factors negate that advantage. I doubt
if the difference would be very noticeable (I've not noticed it on my
Athlon 650 system, but I've also not done any careful benchmarks).
My advice: For casual or production use, use whatever's familiar to you,
unless you have a very specific and compelling reason to use something
else. If you want to learn about Linuxes in general or if you're
dissatisfied with what you've got now, go ahead and experiment, but not
on a production system.

Well I finally got my SBLive to work with Linux!
It wasn't working right until I typed in modprobe each time so I stuck
modprobe in a random rc.d file. I tested it with a wav on root...woot it
worked!
So I go to my user account and try it out. When I click on a wav it just
says "exited." I simply dont get it! It wont play at all. I checked the
permisions and set chmod a+rwx example.wav. No luck. Does anyone know
why it would do this? I'm using K media player.

SuSE 7.1 is good.
But if you have to do anything at all with the setup at work, stay with
RedHat. The differences are quite small, though. Mainly in setup-tools.

Hi Charles,
Soz, the chart did wrap (and prolly confused you more)
/ (root) 4G
Swap that equals your RAM (256; 128, 64 etc)
Either /usr/local or /home (remainder) (You can have all the folders if you
want but only need three - the rest are setup by default in the / directory)
As for your PCI NIC's
at the console type
dmesg | less
Nb, that | character is shift-backslash
This brings up the boot messages; take a note of what it says about eth0 and
eth1; and post them, it will probably tell you there which card is which.

Try this link; it might work, but i guess you've already tried it.
Try switching card position, if you dual boot with win, look for devices
using the same irq:i/o:dma there may be a conflict with linux.

Not a problem. I finally have LM up and running. However, (and I posted this
in linux.networking too), is this:
I got the internet connection working, however, I can't browse. I keep
getting "unknown hosts" errors...
I have been trying to read up on this with the how-to's, but, I'm an idiot
with LM, and I am still trying to figure things out (like how to get my damn
sound card working <G>).
Anyway, if anyone has any ideas, in a plain ex-windows user language, I
would greatly appreciate it.

There's a file called /etc/resolv.conf . Take a look at it... it should
look something like this:
search wibble.com
nameserver 141.211.125.17
nameserver 141.211.144.17
The "wibble.com" in the first line is appended to anything you try to
get to. If you tried to browse "http://foobar", then your machine would
look for "http://foobar.wibble.com". Lots of people set the first line
to "search " with nothing after it, and that's just fine.
The "nameserver" lines are really important. The numbers after them are
the IP addresses of your primary and secondary DNS servers, which are
machines that do the job of translating human-readable names like
"slashdot.org" into the corresponding IP addresses like "64.28.67.150".
Your ISP should provide you with the addresses of their primary and
secondary DNS servers. If you're using DHCP, the DNS should be set up
automatically. If you're using a modem, DNS should be set up
automatically on most modern distros. Try enabling "Use peer DNS" in
the PPP-dialer you're using; it's buried in the options somewhere.
If you posted the exact make+model of your sound card to
comp.os.linux.hardware , along with the information from "cat /proc/pci"
about your sound card, I think someone could help you out. Bonne
chance....

I looked into /proc for the following files but find the files with 0 bytes,
so I dont know how to find out IRQ being used
r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 19 20:40 ioports
r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 19 20:41 tty/driver/serial
DMESG reports at TTS03 a device that has the com port and IRQ settings that
I set on the card.
Serial driver version 4.27 with MANY_PORTS MULTIPORT SHARE_IRQ enabled
ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
ttyS03 at 0x02e8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A
but minicom and setserial cant find it. Can anyone tell me what I am doing
wrong?
Thanks,
John

Hi there,
I try to compile kernel linux 2.4.2 to support ATA100 and it kicks off
with next message
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/raid/md_k.h: In function `pers_to_level':
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/raid/md_k.h:39: warning: control reaches
end of non-void function
make: *** [init/main.o] Error 1
GCC vertsion is -- gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.0)
Does it sounds familar to somebody? What is wrong here? Is GCC a source
of the problem?
Find bellow a portion of make output.
Andrey
