Symmetric Multi-Processor
Its for multiple cpu machines. It will probably run ok on a
uniprocessor, but IIRC, there will be a slight performace hit if you only
have one cpu.
Just pick the uniprocessor one.
You can edit /etc/lilo.conf, and remove the smp entry if you want. (don't
forget to run /sbin/lilo after editing /etc/lilo.conf if you do).

I use Videolan (www.videolan.org) mostly, although on my system it has a
problem with consuming more and more CPU as time progresses.
It does work however and also has the CSS support in the standard
distribution.

Subject: Re: Upgrading to glibc 2.2.
Date: Sun, 08 Apr 2001 14:51:56 -0500
Greetings,
I had fun with issue a few weeks ago...
The short answer to upgrading and installing at the same time, is to
store the updated packages into one directory, and perform
rpm -Uv *.rpm from inside that directory... this will in essence,
upgrade any installed packages and install any new packages from
inside that same directory.
The long answer follows:
I'd highly recommend moving straight to glibc-2.2-12, since it fixes
several bugs contained in glibc-2.1.9x. It's painless, and it will
save a lot of headache later in the game. Anyway, on with the show!
Since glibc is the core of function libraries used by RH linux, you
will not be able to perform a simple 'rpm -i' on the individual glibc
packages... verify which glibc packages you currently have installed:
rpm -q glibc-common
rpm -q glibc-profile
and
rpm -q glibc
If you haven't already, for each installed glibc component store it's
matching update package into one directory say for example:
/upgrade-7/glibc/ ( this will hold for example: glibc-2.2-12.xxx.rpm,
glibc-common-2.2-12.xxx.rpm, and glibc-profile-2.2-12.xxx.rpm.
Since rpm will not perform an upgrade/install with dependency problems
(unless forced), you will need to perform an:
rpm -Uv glibc*
If there are dependency problems, nothing will change... make a list
of the other packages that need to be upgraded and store them in the
same /upgrade-7/glibc/ directory.
Once everything is in place, issue the following command from inside
change the command to
rpm -Uv *.rpm
After glibc is successfully upgraded, don't forget to run lilo ( if
you have it installed ), otherwise, you may not be able to boot.

I haven't tried 2.4.1 myself, but FWIW 2.4.0 and 2.4.2 both
were ok here (including writing StarOffice documents to vfat
partitions). I'll be trying 2.4.3 this week, but I don't
expect any problems. I'd move on up to at least 2.4.2 if I
were you.

Date: 08 Apr 2001 20:41:50 GMT
Thanks for the help. That worked. But now I've got new problems.
First, how do I get my Windows box to see the files on my Linux machine?
When I go to Network Neighborhood, I see the Linux computer, but when I
click on the Icon for it, I get an Action Cancelled window. When I run net
view in a DOS window, I get an Error 53 saying the computer can't find the
machine. But when I do a generic net view command, to show all the boxes
connected, the Linux box pops right up. I don 't get this. Do I need to
set up shares for the Linux drives? If so, how?
My other question: How do I see the Windows shares on the Linux box?
What's the Linux equivalent of Network Neighborhood? Thanks.

Hi there!
I've got problems after updating KDE to 2.1.1 on Kernel 2.4:
Before i used XFree86 4.0.2 with kdm: great!
Update to XFree86 4.0.3: runs great, too
Then i updated KDE from 2.1 to 2.1.1
After that the graphical login does not run!
The bootup messages say: kdm started but there is only the
console-login!
When i start kdm as root: no message and no result!
but: startx runs kde!
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanx, Enz

Subject: Linux MDK install problem (same problem with other linux distrib)
Date: Sun, 8 Apr 2001 23:33:36 +0200
Hi,
I tried for many weeks now to install on my new PC (new motherboard
Gigabyte GA 7ZX + new processor AMD athlon 850 Mhz
+ 128 Mb RAM 133mhz) my linux mandrake 7.2 that worked on my old PC
I get different problems and I don't know if the cause is the same for both of
them !
when I launch the install in text expert I can reach the partitionning stage and
then after formatting i get the following messages :
killing interupt handler
kernel panic : Attempted to kill the idle task
In interrupt handler - not syncing
and then all i can to do is reboot !!
when I use the graphic mode it's worse !!
when i select my langage and i click on the OK button i get the following
message :
error opening policy file /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xserver/Security Policy
Glib warning...
Perl Warning...
Segmentation fault
seems like memory is missing as the install crashes !
well !!
then I tried all the following options :
- turn Bios PNP off
- turn all the port BIOS off (serial, parallel, motherboard sound and modem
chipset
- I launched the install with :
text expert idebus=33 ide0=noautotune mem=128M
and i get the same error (the first one ! kernel panic)
then I tried to boot with my tombsrt linux distrib...
ok !
then I tried to format the Hard disk
ok !
then I tried to check the bad blocks on the hard disk
--> kernel panic !!
then i installed windows (beurk !) without any problems and i checked the whole
disk without finding any bad blocks !
so, PLEASE ! tell me what the hell is this strange error while installing linux
!!
(PS: on my PC i have a 1,2GB HD, a IDE CDROM and that's all !!)
thanks a lot if someone is able to find what hangs this install !!
Denis.

thanks for replying. nfortunately option 1 was not available since up2date
cleaned up after itself so I don't have the RPMs and I can't get them as my
NICs don't work with the system as is... so I followed option 2:
when I get a listing from /boot I notice that while:
System.map -> System.map-2.2.17-14
module-info -> module-info-2.2.17-14
vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.2.17-14
and
System.map-2.2.17-14
module-info-2.2.17-14
vmlinuz-2.2.17-14
exist, there is no kernel.h-2.2.17-14 and kernel.h is a normal file (dated
before the upgrade (as are boot.b, chain.b message and os2_d.b) instead of
being a link.
also I notice that initrd.2.2.16-22.img exists (and doesn't seem to belong
to any package) and there is no 2.2.17-14 version...
also, the contents of my lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
linear
default=linux
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-22
label=linux
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.16-22.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
what next then? can I change the image without having a new initrd?
1k thx - e

Well, don't use an athlon, or disable the (nonexistent) serial number
disable at kernel bootup, or don't use an unsupported IDE controller
(probably an ATA100 one ..). Stick the disks in normal slots. Turn
off udma modes, etc.

Yeah, bad controller or disk.

You tell us. Obviously it's your controller or disk. So what are they?

Pretty impossible. You can't get less than a 10GB disk nowadays.

? This doesn't make sense to me. Service is provided through your DSL signal.
If you disconnect with billing, then they will cut off your signal, and poof! no
more service. Registering your MAC address will do you no good. It seems more
likely that they are only offering PPPoX because they feel it is more manageable
and flexible (though this is arguable).
