[newbie] Installing RPM Packages and Setting Time
Hi, I think that now I'm starting to delve a bit deeper into using this extraordinary Linux release however I've encountered a couple of hitches I hope someone can help me with. 1. I am trying to install some RPM packages I downloaded but I am at a loss as to how to install them properly. I tried to install a WINE RPM for instance and I think I did install it but then I could not find the place where Linux installed it. I used the KRPM application from the KDE desktop. Any help with this and how to locate installed applications would be appreciated. 2. I have a multi-boot PC with Win98 / XP and Mandrake installed. When I get into WinXP the time is OK but when I get into XP the time is always 1 hour ahead. Is there any way to solve this? 3. Also while I'm at it might as well ask :-)... I have a 56K modem which I use with Mandrake but which takes a very long time to initialize and start dialing...is there a way to speed up the initialization process and get it to dial out faster?

If this is possible, then we have almost the same flexibility. Just a wild guess. Well, instead of doing nothing I decided to trash my machine (God forbid). The script /etc/rc.d/rc steps through the runlevels, calling S* scripts located in directories /etc/rc.d/rcN.d/. The S* scripts are just symbolic links to scripts in /etc/init.d/ and after doing an interactive boot, I found out that within runlevel 5 there are two scripts that have something to do with the graphical interface: S20xfs (starts the X Font Server) and S30dm that starts the graphical display manager. So skipping i=20 and i=30 at runlevel 5 within /etc/init.d/rc if the user decides not to start the graphical display, will get us the flexibility desired. Well, I have backed up my data and tomorrow I will be modifying /etc/init.d/rc. Any help before I trash my system, in case I am missing something, will be truly appreciated.

Any help with this and how to locate installed applications would be appreciated. If you type man rpm in a terminal it will give you an overview of the rpm command, which is used to install packages.I tried typing rpm into google and the first hit takes you to rpm's homepage, which gives you all the info you need. You can find documentation for most of what's on your system in /usr/share/doc/*packagename* You can use the find files command in KDE to locate files relating to a package - eg search for wine* will bring up any file name beginning with wine try rpm -qa | grep whine too see whether this package of yours was installed...once you get the name of the package you may type rpm -ql packagename to see where all the files were placed 2. I have a multi-boot PC with Win98 / XP and Mandrake installed. When I get into WinXP the time is OK but when I get into XP the time is always 1 hour ahead. Is there any way to solve this? Have you checked your regional setings in Control Panel? 3. Also while I'm at it might as well ask :-)... I have a 56K modem which I use with Mandrake but which takes a very long time to initialize and start dialing...is there a way to speed up the initialization process and get it to dial out faster? Sorry, don't know Thanks to all in advance. David Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Requests and # responses are automatically allowed using connection tracking. # # In most places where an IP address or subnet is allowed, you # can preceed the address/subnet with ! (e.g., !192.168.1.0/24) to # indicate that the rule matches all addresses except the address/subnet # given. Notice that no white space is permitted between ! and the # address/subnet. # # Columns are: # # # ACTION ACCEPT, DROP, REJECT, DNAT or REDIRECT # # ACCEPT -- allow the connection request # DROP -- ignore the request # REJECT -- disallow the request and return an # icmp-unreachable or an RST packet. # DNAT -- Forward the request to another # system (and optionally another # port). # REDIRECT -- Redirect the request to a local # port on the firewall. # # May optionally be followed by : and a syslog log # level (e.g, REJECT:info). This causes the packet to be # logged at the specified level. # # SOURCE Source hosts to which the rule applies.

[newbie] Strange behavior in 9.1betas
Hello; After all the complaining I did last week about the fun I was having installing beta1 on the same machine as Dolphin having people ignore my posts wouldn't surprise me at all. :-) beta2 downloaded; checked the md5sums (all good) burned the CDs and bit the bullet. Everything backed up, 2 whole 60 GB hard drives ready to play on Reiser FS, and this time I was damned well gonna _play!_ g Yeahh, sure I was. Tried to treat it as a regular install, flat list for packages isn't anywhere to be seen. Interesting. Picked the packages in the groups I knew I wanted and went from there. The install actually seems quicker on my machine than Dolphin did on my son's Duron 1300 MHz. Kewl. Got to the summary section and had no keyboard showing, must have been one of the installer phantoms we've all experienced occasionally so I just selected US keyboard. My hardware was all identified properly; sound card, graphics adapter, monitor etc.. But the network showed as not configured. OK; let's do something about that. Click the right buttons, go through the steps, back to the summary screen. CableOK Hangs at the make bootdisk stage. Start over, skip it. Finished, media ejected, _let's dance!_ Suuure. NOT. Booted to the desktop OK, Sound works unlike beta1, the resolution was correct unlike beta1, everything seems to be as it should. Except there's no network. It's impossible to make a connection happen using Mandrake Control Center. According to the SystemServices the internet is running. Try ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 at the command line from a superuser terminal. Nope, tells me to check the cables. Unplugged or some such foolishness. This is getting old. Try (gasp!) linuxconf. OK, the DHCP servers are already identified but seems no domain names resolution. Won't save manual entries for dns vs NIS, YP or whatever the hell local domain name resolution s**t it seems locked into. And around and around we go. Back to beta1. Install; at the services on boot screen there are no buttons so I ignored it and hit enter. Lucked out again, it worked. I can always turn things on and off after I boot and disable the boot start-up where I don't need the service, I didn't the first time and couldn't go any further. To the desktop we gono sound (expected that) adjusted resolution and turned off services that aren't needed Let's see about updating this thing from MCC or urpmi at the command line. Add sources, got the _full_ hdlists for cooker and contribs. urpmi --auto-select.568 MB is this OK? Y/N#y curl can't cd to blah-blah-blah a few hundred times you may want to update urpmi AAARRRGGGHHH Won't add software that wasn't installed originally either since it's calling my CD-ROM cdrom2 and my burner cdrom even though they're listed correctly in fstab. Won't do anything to update except manually. I installed the updated kernel manually but couldn't install the updated kernel sources 'cause of some dependency on ncurses-devel library that isn't installed. I recall selecting development packages during install. sigh Questions: how do I sync a directory to cooker and use that instead of software manager from a mirror? If I get the latest update packages maybe everything will start to work. In the alternative how would I force the beta2 DHCP to start resolving names from my ISP's servers on this _stand alone_ machine? beta2 solved some of the glitches in beta1 but broke the networking for me. Doing an upgrade install of beta2 over what I have right now won't work. I tried it. Twice. Any advice? Hints? Please? Thanks for reading.

If you haven't used ksysvinit before, after starting the program click the Help menu and read the basics there - its not as hard as it looks but be careful not to change anything else. To add the script you will need to place it in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ Perhaps thats why chkconfig isn't working?

Doing an upgrade install of beta2 over what I have right now won't work. I tried it. First of all, you are reporting the bugs you find to bugzilla (https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/) aren't you?

Yeah, I do check bugzilla. For syncing the cooker tree to my local harddrive i use the following command: rsync -avrt --progress --delete ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586 /home/lusr/burn/cooker/ Extreme thanks Sasha!

No trouble. /home (a common partition) now has 18.6 GB to play in and I'm nowhere near the download bandwidth cap from my ISP. Am I adding a user called lusr (whatever) or just making directories in my /home or /home/nanook? Either is fine, I just don't want to screw the pooch here. BTW I have one empty 30 GB (Reiser FS formatted) partition called /store available on hdb. Would that be more appropriate?

Why? well just read what I added to almost all your submitted port attacks. Sorry to say this, but this is ignorance. You are being probed from all sides my trojans, and you don't realise it. I asked if it was normal and I asked why people get so worried. What I meant by the second part that I probably didn't explain as well as I could have was why people worry so much if they have their firewalls setup to block those ports. Asking the question I asked in itself implies that I don't know something and I'm trying to find out. Whether or not you are a newbie to linux like myself or an expert I don't know. From the information you gave me I'd expect you are someone quite knowledgeable about linux. If this is true, then help me by all means, but it would brighten my day no end if you would desist with the use of the word 'ignorance'. Therse aren't scrip-kiddies, but documented trojans, probably most are from Windows, but like the one I had... Redhat Linux. It's not normal for people to try ftp into you, or fetch mail from your server... but look at the list of trojans... there are many for those 2 ports. With the firewall setup and blocking those ports (I certainly hope it is) aren't I just getting a logfile full of attempted probes? From my DI-704P Ethernet Broadband Routers Log: port 137 = (UDP) - Bugbear, Msinit, Opaserv, Qaz port 1433 = Voyager Alpha Force port 1524 = Trinoo port 21 = ADM worm, Back Construction, Blade Runner, BlueFire, Bmail, Cattivik FTP Server, CC Invader, Dark FTP, Doly Trojan, FreddyK, Invisible FTP, KWM, MscanWorm, NerTe, NokNok, Pinochet, Ramen, Reverse Trojan, RTB 666, The Flu, WinCrash, Voyager Alpha Force port 22 = InCommand, Shaft, Skun port 25 = Antigen, Barok, BSE, Email Password Sender , Gip, Laocoon, Magic Horse, MBT , Moscow Email trojan, Nimda, Shtirlitz, Stukach, Tapiras, WinPC port 3128 = Reverse WWW Tunnel Backdoor , RingZero port 3389 = nothing I can find port 443 = Slapper port 445 = Nimda port 515 = MscanWorm, Ramen port 6346 = nothing I can find, I believe it's the giFT port Just thought I would let you know ;-) Let's just hope you have the non-logged ports closed ;-) I know I'm about to open up a can of worms here, but can we not let it get out of control people. Ok, here goes. Is there a 'decent' online security site that could check my ports?

[newbie] GNOME login quirk
Hi All, When I login to GNOME I get this error message before it loads; Could not look up internet address for (my computer name used to log onto attbi's cable network). This will prevent GNOME from operating correctly. It may be possible to correct this by adding (my computers name) to the file /etc/hosts. It then gives me two choices login anyway and Try again. I choose Login anyway and Gnome loads fine and everything seems to work just fine. None of the others do this. Anyone know what GNOME's hangup is here? If I added that to the hosts file would it mess up the rest of them? Thanks -- Russ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
[newbie] Printer Still not working
Hi All, I am still not able to use my printer. I was able to change my update source and have updated all my installed packages. However, I don't think it was able to properly fix my printer stuff because I'm not sure I had all the proper packages installed to begin with. When I was trying to install my printer I kept getting errors about not being able to find server. I did install what I did get though but my printer never worked. I was then told how to change my update source and did so. I no longer get those errors. I tried deleting my printer and installing it again but no good. How can I uninstall all the printer stuff so it will log onto the update site and get it all this time? Or is ther something else I need to do to get it working? I have a Canon S750 USB and the install said Canon BJ-35V driver should work. However, as I said above I don't think it has been installed properly.

Either is fine, I just don't want to screw the pooch here. BTW I have one empty 30 GB (Reiser FS formatted) partition called /store available on hdb. Would that be more appropriate? Since I'm going to mirror the entirety of cooker it may become useful for someone down the line. No, don't add any user. /home/lusr/burn/cooker/ is simply where I want to keep my local mirror of cooker. Sorry, I neglected to mention to simply substitute the path for whatever path you want to store the files under. So for you that would probably be /home/nanook/[anydir], or if you want to keep it in /store/[anydir] that is also fine. It just depends on which harddrive/partition you want to store the files. My user name (lusr) is just me trying to be funny. ;-) I thought it was amusing, that's why I made the smart a$$ comments about it. Thanks for clearing that up. I thought it was the way it should be but wasn't positive and screw ups drive me nuts when I'm the instigator. The easy part but thanks. I would probably have forgotten how to do it at first. Kind of pointless if I don't sync for contribs though, isn't it? That's where the toys are. :-) It certainly is. If you are concerned about you bandwidth and harddrive space you can also make a file (i called it 'ignore.txt') where you list all the packages that you are not interested in downloading. So if you are using it solely as a desktop you can put apache, and other servers in that file and it shall not sync them. Then you have to use the additional switch with rsync: Last I looked (about five minutes ago) I was only using a total of roughly 11 GB out of 240. I don't think I'll run out any time soon. :-) --exclude-from=/home/nanook/ignore.txt The whole thing would then look like this: rsync -avrt --progress --delete --exclude-from=/home/nanook/ignore.txt ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586 /home/nanook/burn/cooker/ Perfect. Thank you. Good luck, Sascha Noyes BTW I figured out how to make 9.1beta2 work with my RealTek 10/100 NIC and Shaw Cable's domain servers by reading the cooker list. Before doing the upgrade install and not picking any packages I downloaded the latest initscripts, ran dhcpcd eth0 from console, installed the upgraded initscripts and rebooted. I'm sitting in 9.1beta2 right now. Don't ya love it when a plan comes together? g Thanks again Sasha. I'll set the rsync tonight so it can do it's thing while I watch my Sunday night few hours of boob tube. :) Warmest regards; -- Charlie Edmonton,AB,Canada Registered user 244963 http://counter.li.org To whom the mornings are like nights, What must the midnights be! -- Emily Dickinson (on hacking?)

What I should have posted was; I understand why a developer with an open project would abandon ship if he/she/they were getting any sort of support from a distribution vendor. Sorry for not being clear on that point previously. His comments about Mandrake however were completely out of line. I agree with that statement completely. As for what level and kind of support was in place, I have no idea; but I don't really think Mandrake needs fair weather friends that would be inclined to crap on the distribution or company just for a sponsorship deal of some sort from a competitor. Do you? I've never liked the colour of that hat anyway. OK - seems we are pretty much in agreement :) Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
