I recently posted a question about a problem using kino in capture mode
because I do not have a /dev/raw1394, as I had no replies I have been
fiddling about and made some progress.
Something I have done is causing my box to use devfs instead of udev, I'm not
sure what. However using devfs kino
I'm trying to set up kino using 10.1 OE and kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk but it won't
go into capture mode and shows error message
"WARNING: raw1394 kernel module not loaded or failure to
read/write /dev/raw1394!"
Under /dev there is no device /d
Where do I set how often the HD's get fsck'd on boot.

Previously the modem was /dev/ttyS2 which was a symlink to /dev/tts/2. Now

Many thanks to everyone who replied to my question about swap file sizes.
Now I have another concern.
I have an 80GB hard drive with one partition containing windows XP and
formatted NTFS.
I plan to use Partitionmagic 7.0 to shrink this partition to 40GB thus
leaving me 40GB to install LM 8.2.

RPM's may not be perfect, but when you install a new app on winders
the chance is it will overwrite an existing DLL and screw something
else. You pays your money (or not in the case of Linux) and takes

You guys might all think that the article was a joke, and I must
admit that I can't get too excited about it.
B_U_T the views expressed by some of the respondents were enough to
make your blood run cold.
It seems that a large proportion of them would make us live in a
totalitarian state, just
I had a problem with settings in X and could only see a blank screen when KDE
started at boot-time.
I managed to fix this with the Xfree86config tool, but I decided it would be
easier to boot to a cosole login prompt and so I changed my default run level
