compiling an old kernel
As I explained in another message I am getting SCSI errors when writing a CD; I have tried to use this CD writer under windows: it works; so I suppose it may be a driver problem (I use a 2.2.13 kernel). So I am trying to compile an old kernel (2.0.38) but with there are problems with egcs. I have applied the patch at http://www.suse.de/~florian/kernel+egcs.html but I still get errors: In file included from init/main.c:46: /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.38/include/asm/bugs.h: In function `check_k6_bug': /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.38/include/asm/string.h:118: Invalid `asm' statement: /usr/src/kernel-source-2.0.38/include/asm/string.h:118: fixed or forbidden register 4 (si) was spilled for class SIREG. (a number of times) Has somebody successfully compiled a 2.0 kernel with egcs or is it necessary to reinstall gcc2.7? Thanks Hubert

I used to write CDs with cdrecord without problem; but now almost every time I try to write a CD it ends with a SCSI error: cdrecord: Input/output error. close track/session: scsi sendcmd: retryable error CDB: 5B 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) Sense Bytes: F0 00 05 00 00 00 00 28 00 07 F3 17 2C 04 00 00 Sense Key: 0x5 Illegal Request, Segment 0 Sense Code: 0x2C Qual 0x04 (current program area is empty) Fru 0x0 Sense flags: Blk 0 (valid) cmd finished after 0.016s timeout 480s I haven't changed anything to the hardware; I am using potato on a Celeron 333; do you think it's a hardware error? thanks for helping Hubert

Strange, isn't it. when looking in the log file there is: no immediate delivery: more than 10 messages received in one connection if you want the other messages immediatly you can do: exim -q I suppose it would be possible to change this behaviour, but I haven't found how; Hubert

CD recorder problem
I have a CD recorder (Philips 2x2x6) and when I try to write a CD with cdwrite -v -D /dev/sr0 cdimage.raw I get cdwrite 2.0 Track 01: data7 Mb opening scsi device: Read-only file system At boot the CD recorder is detected: Vendor: SCSI-CD Model: ReWritable-2x2x6 Rev: 2.00 Type: CD-ROMNSI SCSI revision: 02 Detected scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0 (scsi0:0:3:0) Synchronous at 10.0 Mbyte/sec, offset 15. I have changed the permissions of /dev/scd0 (to which sr0 is symlinked) to 770; I get the same result; I have surely missed something but what? (I dont think it's a hardware problem because the recorder works under Windows) Thanks for any help Hubert
emacs and pgnus
I am trying to use pgnus-0.75 and I have the following problem: it compiles fine (./configure and make) but when I use it I get the error void function: gnus-truncate-string the problem is that there is no function named gnus-truncate-string in pgnus; so I think it may be loaded before I start gnus but I can't find where; I have tried to eliminate all possibilities: I load emacs with EMACSLOADPATH=/usr/share/emacs/20.3/lisp, with no init-file (emacs -q) and I just do (setq load-path (cons (expand-file-name "~/src/pgnus-0.75/lisp") load-path)) and M-x gnus and the error happens; where this gnus-truncate-string comes from? is it possible that it is at compile time? I have done strings /usr/bin/emacs | grep gnus-truncate and got nothing thanks for any help Hubert

I use exim and I have the same behaviour; when more than 10 messages arrive exim doesn't deliver them at once; in the log file there is: no immediate delivery: more than 10 messages received in one connection this is controled by some exim options (see queue_only_load) Hubert Fauque
some applications are eating memory
I have noticed that some applications are growing without limits: the first one is netscape; I have limited in Preferences the size of the memory cache to 3 Mb but as I use it, it takes more and more memory (as reported by top); I have to kill it when it is too big ( the maxmimum I have had till now is more than 60 Mb) and relaunch it; I noticed also that xconsole grows: now after 11 days since reboot it occupies 12 Mb; is it normal? by the way I have tried amaya but can't get it working; does somebody use it successfully? thanks for any help Hubert [EMAIL PROTECTED]

floppy boot problem
I tried to make a boot floppy by copying the kernel on the floppy: cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage /dev/fd0 it works except that when I boot from the floppy my Adaptec 1542 isn't recognized at boot; when I boot with the same kernel from the hard disk the 1542 is recognized without problems; I am sure it's the same kernel on the floppy and the hard disk and the Adaptec support is built-in the kernel and it's not a module. does somebody as an idea of what's happening? thanks in advance Hubert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
