[Cooker] Request - support on Via Mini-ITX in final kernel
Hia folks, any chance in getting the 2.4.22 (Well the patches from 2.4.22-pre10-ac1) kernel runningon Mdk-9.2 final ? Would be quite nice to not having to repatch & Build the kernel everytime I'm using a new one :) Also - if the CLE266 Chipset support could also be integrated into X - or at least having a package that adds support for it would be really great :) Thx for taking this into account & Cheers Joerg -- This system will self-destruct in five minutes. ---- | Joerg Mertin : [EMAIL PROTECTED](Home)| | in Neuchâtel/Schweiz : [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Alt1)| | Stardust's LiNUX System : [EMAIL PROTECTED](Alt2)| | Web: http://www.solsys.org: Voice & Fax: +41(0)32 / 725 52 54 | PGP Fingerprint: AF0F FB75 997B 025F 4538 5AD6 9888 5D97 170B 8B7A
Re: [Cooker] Request - support on Via Mini-ITX in final kernel
A little addition - the XFree version that works with the CLE266 Chipset is 4.3.99 snapshot release 8, however the xauth programm is buggy in that version ;o) Cheers Joerg On Tuesday 05 August 2003 16:37, Joerg Mertin wrote: > Hia folks, > > any chance in getting the 2.4.22 (Well the patches from 2.4.22-pre10-ac1) > kernel runningon Mdk-9.2 final ? > > Would be quite nice to not having to repatch & Build the kernel everytime > I'm using a new one :) Also - if the CLE266 Chipset support could also be > integrated into X - or at least having a package that adds support for it > would be really great :) > > Thx for taking this into account & Cheers > > Joerg -- When in doubt, use brute force. -- Ken Thompson -------- | Joerg Mertin : [EMAIL PROTECTED](Home)| | in Neuchâtel/Schweiz : [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Alt1)| | Stardust's LiNUX System : [EMAIL PROTECTED](Alt2)| | Web: http://www.solsys.org: Voice & Fax: +41(0)32 / 725 52 54 | PGP Fingerprint: AF0F FB75 997B 025F 4538 5AD6 9888 5D97 170B 8B7A
Re: [Cooker] mandrake 9.1 and dhcpcd / dhclient problem
Hi Buchan, it's funny - in my 10 Years of working with Linux - I did not manage to get dhclient working reliably - it always screwed my DNS (/etc/resolve.conf file) as I have my own Name-Server running - it screwed that one too. Pump - IMHO - is simple - small and does what I wanted it to do. Nothing else. dhclient might be better for automated installation tools - if they work. However - if you are an old networking guy who knows what he's doing - I have to admit that pump does whatever you need - and does not interfere with the rest. And in this case - a user had a problem related to the complexity of dhclient IMHO ... Just my 2 cents.

Re: [Cooker] mandrake 9.1 and dhcpcd / dhclient problem
Hi Ed, try it out this way: Check if pump is installed - if not - install it. Check it with: rpm -q pump If this command doesn't return a thing - issue: urpmi pump Make sure there is not another dhcp programm running: ps auxwww | grep dhcp If there is one - check which one that is, stop this program - and remove the package. If you know where the binary is - a: rpm -qf /sbin/dhcpd b.e. will tell yo the package name, a rpm -e will remove it. Once installed - make sure you have the Network_Device pump should run on configured as follows: ~smurphy# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2 DEVICE=eth2 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=dhcp _make_ _sure_ that the eth device is the correct one. Unix starts counting at 0, windows starts at 1 !!! Once - this is done - you should be set up - issue a: ifup eth2 and the pump (dhcp) should fire up you network. Works here - with a Cable-Modem. If you want some more detailed help - you need to give us more detailed informations on you system, the setup etc. On Sunday 20 July 2003 04:44, Ed Guenther wrote: > I've read about the problem with apic and noapic and > eth0:9 and 169.254.x.y and all that jazz.

Ahhh That would an excellent Idea. I have Lilo and a mgetty running on my ttys0 port - however i do not see anything of the Boot-Up process ... Any chance to get that in ? Or does it already exist somewhere - but I just didn't find it ?

Re: [Cooker] split lists?
Hi Mate, if you have a server that holds the mails - just make sure you have the possibility to connect it through IMAP. Imap will only get you the headers - as long as you don't want to read a Mail. The way I do it - even if I have a Cable-Connection etc. - but it's way faster. On Wednesday 16 July 2003 03:25, Ben Reser wrote: > Yes and you get paid to read the list. I don't.

However the bandwith argument is still valid to my mind. Yeah - on Imap-Headers - I'd say 90Kbytes. much faster. If It's not fast enough - try out batching :) Good old times if you ask me. you only need to find a UUCP-Server, set it up - and make sure to use bzip as Compression :) and everything will be finally batched up to the fastest transfer possibility ever :) Back in time - I even had a full functional INND with loads of News and Mails for about 16 People on a 14400 Link (Good old Zyxel Modems). You know - there are many possibilities to decrease your bandwidth. However - I think that if you think Cooker has way to much in it - I would unsubscribe from Cooker - and brwose through the Mail-Archives that are most probably somewhere on the Net. Just my 2 cents :) Cheers Joerg -- It is through symbols that man consciously or unconsciously lives, works and has his being. -- Thomas Carlyle ---- | Joerg Mertin : [EMAIL PROTECTED](Home)| | in Neuchâtel/Schweiz : [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Alt1)| | Stardust's LiNUX System : [EMAIL PROTECTED](Alt2)| | Web: http://www.solsys.org: Voice & Fax: +41(0)32 / 725 52 54 | PGP Fingerprint: AF0F FB75 997B 025F 4538 5AD6 9888 5D97 170B 8B7A
[Cooker] Re: Nforce AGP patch ...
Hi Thomas, that's cool. I have to say however that I did not have problems with this patch up to now. Using a Asus A7N8X Delux Board, 512MBytes Ram (2x256), HIS Radeon 9500 Pro 128Mbyte board. PS: I had the same Problem though as before with the X-Server, once in a time, eating up all memory of the System (Before that, I had the NVIDIA Drivers using a Geforce 3Ti 500 Board). This happened always when starting the Mandrake-Control center, and having forgotten to close rpmDrake ...
