[Cooker] Accessing DOS Partitions from mdk 7.0 causes crash
Using the kde enviroment, i accessed the dos partitions (win98) from mdk 7.0. If i tried to make any changes to the file permissions, it would crash. To resolve crash, locate the su window within the "TAsk Manager" and grab the pid number. Open and command window and login "su" or as root. type: kill [pid number here...usually 3 digit] should close the window. i have had problems using xkill and etc. one wrong button and everything froze!! the above is usualy the only way out. Basicly, i was trying make some sort of link placed on my usual "user's" desktop that would provide "read write" access. (the link would point to c:/windows/desktopof course). Unfortunately, haven't figured this one out yet (as with allot of other stuff). -- Sent from: Lattitude (deg):32.7130 Longitude (deg):-117.1530 Altitude (ft): 410.0 GMT to Local (hrs): -8.0 (daylight savings enabled) Created with Linux-Mandrake 7.0! http://www.linux-mandrake.com/ Currently Beta Testing Mandrake Ver 7.0
[Cooker] Publishing with Netscape (using PUT)
I'm curious as to "why" this has not been implemented into Apache yet? Think that patch was out in 97 or 98'? again, this is one of the main reasons people use linux, host httpd and w/ the hassle to publish (w/ netscape) makes it somewhat a hinderence. Is there any work around (besides getting the "put" patch and recompiling apache) that i don't know about? Also, still can't login to my "miny" server here "as root" by using ftp. Have although, been able to gain access "as a user password" or anonymous..but not root (incorrect password errorbut it is correct!) -- Sent from: Lattitude (deg):32.7130 Longitude (deg):-117.1530 Altitude (ft): 410.0 GMT to Local (hrs): -8.0 (daylight savings enabled) Created with Linux-Mandrake 7.0! http://www.linux-mandrake.com/ Currently Beta Testing Mandrake Ver 7.0
[Cooker] ftp as root
solved... simple rem'ing out in user file. guess this is one fo the things that the "security level" really screws with in the drakeconfig stuff. bummer :( like loging and and uploading files remotely to ftp (or http)...etc ... since typing on this 15" monitor and stiff keyboard really sux! including the small cpu and memory...only really good for ftp httpd :) Would really be nice to see some how to's on how i can do a remote xserver of my user desktop on this computer. although security hazard, don't see much info around on this one. yikes -- Sent from: Lattitude (deg):32.7130 Longitude (deg):-117.1530 Altitude (ft): 410.0 GMT to Local (hrs): -8.0 (daylight savings enabled) Created with Linux-Mandrake 7.0! http://www.linux-mandrake.com/ Currently Beta Testing Mandrake Ver 7.0

[Cooker] [OT] good motherboards
I know this is severely OT but I would appreciate feedback from the readers of this list. My boss's boss has given me yet another batch of motherboards unreliable by design (last time, AstroMicro; this time, ProComp) and I would appreciate recommendations of good motherboards, especially anecdotal evidence of quality. I've heard good things about:- - Gigabyte - Tyan - ABit (The PCs run Pentium III CPUs up to 550MHz and are Linux/Windows98 dual-boot.

As far as P3's go, any 100mhz fsb cpu, Katmai or Coppermine, is preferable to any 133mhz fsb cpu. This is for ram, and agp considerations on a BX motherboard. eg, you can run a 133mhz cpu on a BX board, and your pci bus is in spec at 33.3mhz, but the agp bus is 89mhz, and all but unusable. Quality ram will run at 100mhz at cas2 timings, much harder and more expensive to find cas2 pc133. I'd suggest the Soyo 6ba+III $90 (or 6ba+IV if you believe there's anything to be gained with ata/66). Before I'd read anything on ZDnet, I'd check reviews at Tom's, Anand's, Ars Technica, BXboards, and most oc'ing pages, etc. (The PCs run Pentium III CPUs up to 550MHz and are Linux/Windows98 dual-boot. I figure, if it'll run Linux, it'll run Windows, but not the other way around.) I run a p3-450 at 608mhz, pc100 at 135mhz cas2 on a Soyo 6ba+III. It runs W98 or Mdk6.0 equally well.

[Cooker] XFree86-3.3.6-7 and kde2
I presently have my hybridized L-M 7.0+Cooker+kde1+kde2 functioning in a somewhat reasonable manner. Have recently down an upgrade of the latest rpms except for kernel, kde1 and XFree86. This has been a "slash and burn" some force/nodeps, but all in all produces decent results. For example I am running L-M 6.1 on Server with Client 7.0-Cooker hybrid exporting Display kde1 and kde2 to separate XConsoles on Server at the same time as well as several resident WindowManagers on Server. Impresses the "locals" and gets them interested! :) When attempting rpm -Uvh XFree86* I get the conflicts with files from package kdebase2-1.8.0.19991204 messages mainly /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ conflicts. Any suggestions? I will be attempting to upgrade the kde1 rpms as well as kde2 and wonder what the proper proceedure would be to keep both intact? Thanks William Bouterse Juneau Alaska

had teh /dev/hda1 folder open on kde desktop when getting continuous crashes. as default the kde (desktop) decided to try and open this (dos) folder by default each time. as such, crashed or freezed the entire system. work around: restart (either in init3 or the failsafe desktop) as root. umount the dev (/dev/hda1 in my case) and then startup the kde desktop. the folder won't display the offending folder since it's not mounted and operations within (kde/gnome/ etc) will resume normally.

[Cooker] SuCcEsS! (local lan while ip alias to seperate outside cable access)
Well, i don't see this too much and have yet to see any howto's. All I get/got for help was something to the effect, "...you'd be better off getting another NIC card", of course that would require another irq! here's my layout: IP#'s assigned to the 2 different computers are: Computer #1 = 24.aa.aa.aa (ip for local access = 192.168.0.a) Computer #2 = 24.bb.bb.bb (ip for local access = 192.168.0.b) 2 nic's connected via ethernet hub with a source to a cable modem. As such, this works similarly to the netbui or ipx protocals for network w/i a windows to windows enviroment, except in linux i had to set it up mainly (of course). I now have access to and from both computers taking advantage of 10/100 mb/s access. (i'm now ready for NFS!...or samba...etc) I have successfully retained the computers individual outside ip assigned by my cable internet service. What i did: 1) configured my hosts files according to the howto on www.mandrakeusers.org 2) used the drakexnetworking Server Tasks IP alias for vh. Added the 192.168.0.a/b alias numbers according to each a and b computer. 3) restarted the network (as instructed in #1). 4) Last step is to configure hosts deny to "all" once everything works. I am totally surprised that there is "no howto" for this. I only had "bits and pieces" of howto's. I would have to say, that there are allot of COX @HOME USERS that will have seperate ip numbers for working w/i the win98 enviroment. They would typically have 2 (or more computers within the home connected via an ethernet hub). This h/w layout is becoming more and mroe popular. As such, would someone please take this info and describe it within one of the present howto's? such as teh micro lan on www.mandrakeusers.org? Of course, the only really thing needed to add to that one is the "alias" setup w/i the network config. btw: i really like the seperate button w/i the drakex config for the "Network" area. saves a click. whether or not it's in "proper" layout ...dunno.
