Microsoft Intellimouse
Hi, I just got debian linux up, got everything configured (including X), but I have one problem. I have a microsoft intellimouse which has a PS/2 connector. When I run xf86config and pick microsoft intellimouse from the list, my mouse immediately goes to the top left corner when I run X, but if I pick PS/2 from the list, my mouse works fine. Unfortunately, that means I don't get the use of the roller/third button. Anyone know how I can get my intellimouse working? In case this helps, I use /dev/psaux as the mouse device. That works with both X and gpm. Brian * email [EMAIL PROTECTED] * -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

No. AFAIK the expand/compress progs store data in a zip-like for (called MS_ZIP in the M$'s site). This must be a proprietary slightly modified zip... Well, it's never too much to try (I did before I asked): $ unzip wc.tx_ Archive: wc.tx_ End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. unzip: can't find zipfile directory in one of wc.tx_ or wc.tx_.zip, and can't find wc.tx_.ZIP, period.

Re: dselect nfs question
I've seen the same problem. I assume it is a problem with dselect because if you mount the nfs filesystem by hand, choose mounted as the access method, and point to the mount point, dselect works OK. It appears that dselect does not try to mount the filesystem because of what it perceives as an RPC version error. -Bill N Nathan E Norman writes: On Fri, 27 Feb 1998, Tim Sailer wrote: : Nathan E Norman wrote: : : This question is overly vague; sorry ... : : I started playing with nfs today (nothing like a little excitement on a : friday).

In that case, I think you would have to delete and re-create the DOS partitions with LBA enabled. Most new large capacity drives come with a program that permits DOS to access them with an older bios, but I have never used one. I don't know if these programs modify the stored disk geometry or if they interact with the bios.

Re: diagnosing smail
On Fri, 27 Feb 1998 11:08:26 EST, Daniel Martin wrote: My interpretation is that smail only makes use of the from_field variable if incoming mail has no From: or Sender: fields already; further, if there is a From: field already, then smail inserts a Sender: field using the from_field information only if the pre-existing From: field doesn't match what smail would have written with from_field. IOW: If I'm replying to a message, the header writing will be different than if I send a new message? I'd not fully considered this previously. This would explain why on at least one occasion I got good headers on a new mail, but a reply mail showed faulty headers. I wish I'd thought of this before. Perhaps I'm close to a fix. I'll try getting back to that point and work from there. What is the order of operations between /etc/smail/transports and /etc/smail/config, when modifying, adding, removing header lines, in terms of which goes first and last ? Ok - the idea is that the From: line should be the email address of the person the mail is from, whereas the Sender: is the email address of the account the mail is from, if that's different. (Sender: headers are not required if the From: address also represents the account the mail comes from). [..] IOW: I need the Sender: line because my local hostname is not my isp's? The sender line is good, because it tells where I'm connected when the message was sent, but does it make sense for my mail to be accepted/rejected based on a temporary hostname? This is what my isp told me had occurred. My isp may have misled me about the problem when they said my Sender: line was incorrect. Someone recently mentioned that their From: line was rejected by a specific isp due to the form: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (joe user), which is the same I use. I've read that this form is valid, and that the other usage joe user [EMAIL PROTECTED] is ok to use, but not as well in keeping with the RFC's. (I think I read this in some mh/nmh/exmh docs.) So maybe my mail wasn't being rejected solely on the account of my Sender: line, maybe it was being rejected on the account of the combination of Sender: line *and* the form of my From: line. IOW: my From: line was never looked at previously, because my Sender: line was good, but now that my Sender: line is bad, my From: line is being rejected. This might be a good time to ask: Which form is best? I think there are historic reasons (before from_field was used for Sender: fields) for having it begin with From:. IOW: the from_field code always modifies the From: line? So why did the man page indicate the from_field wrote the From: or the Sender: line? There is one consequence of this which ties in with an earlier point: if the from_field code I inserted is not behaving properly, it could result in my Sender: line being written in a way other than I desired and this could be why my Sender: line is inncorrect. Thanks for the test code; by removing the conditions, I got it to work. The results show that all my variables appear as I've assigned them, so now I just have to figure out where the logic is going awry in my configuration.

Re: i made a mess with dselect
Someone else has advised you that a 1.3.1r6 CDs are available at farily cheap prices. Another approach is to reinstall from the 1.3 CD, then use dselect/dpkg-ftp to upgrade.

It says 0x230 and the module when loaded says 0x220. I think this is just what the SMC Ultra card does. Have a look at /proc/ioports. How do I proceed to locate the actual problem? (I mean: how do I find out if the hardware is malfunctioning, if the module doesn't work with my card or if there's a configuration problem?)

Re: DEBIAN or REDHAT ?
Hi, Hi, I am currently using hamm and am very happy with it. I will be installing a new Linux system soon but everyone is telling me to install RedHat 5. Has anyone any opinions on this? I tend to be partial to Debian, especially with GNOME being integrated into hamm. However, I've never used Redhat. I have just switched from RedHat 5 to Debain 1.3.1, The main difference between the 2 is the installation routine. I personally think that RedHat's is better, but Debain seem to configure more on installation. Also, I've been advised that RedHat puts out security fixes the next day after a CERT advisory is released. How is Debian when it comes to security and other patches? When I was using bo, patches weren't released very often. Is this an indication that RedHat is more buggy, or is it an indication that Debian is more stable? For example, when the CERT advisory for SSH-AGENT was release over a week ago, one of the OSes that responded to the CERT advisory was RedHat. Much to my dismay, Debian wasn't one of the OSes that was mentioned on the CERT list. I ended up compiling SSH on my own. I have alos found that it seemed a lot of the packages avaliable under RedHat 5 were broken or just didn't work properly, so I had to get on the net and down load all the updates, which I don't particulaly expect to have to do when buying a commercial release of Linux. This maybe true but RedHat are a commercial organisationwho are paying people to write and fix code, Debain is not. At the momment I think that Debain is the better distribution for me anyway, but I do miss some of the tools avaliable under RedHat, like the control panel, and glint but I can live without them. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or tips. Its all really personal choice, I prefer Debain my Friends like RedHat. The choice is yours, but if you can I would try both.

NAT solution for Linux?
Is there a kernel module and/or software that provides Network Address Translation (something similar to what Cisco's PIX product does)? I know about Masquerading; I have friends who use it, and I'm building such a machine for my home network. However, we have some large locations, and customers with large locations, who would like to use NAT. Right now this means going with the PIX product. I believe there's an NT solution but I've never used it, so I can't recommend it. There was a mention of a NAT effort on the bsdi list a while ago ... so, I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask about it here. For those who don't know, NAT uses the concept of pools ... private addresses on the inside are mapped to public addresses on the outside. The public addresses are drawn from a pool. In other words, each client has its own IP address, or translation slot, whereas a masquerading proxy server uses Port Address Translation, where all requests come from the same public IP address. The PIX has some cool security features for each translation slot ... though it seems to me this could be more generalized if done on top of Linux.

If you're running smail, you might need to reconfigure it with `smailconfig'. -- Carey Evans http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/c.evans/ GNU GPL: The Source will be with you... always. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
