2 x 3com509B
Hi. I'm just working on box with 2 3C509B NICs (ISA PNP, 10BaseT) and encountered a problem. Each NIC alone works fine, but both together are causing problem. I can load driver module and see 2 NICs are recognized and set to (0x220,5) for eth0 and (0x230,11) for eth1 respectively. Setting up eth0 (inet address and so on) goes fine, but when I try to setup eth1, that hangs kernel. Does anyone experienced and solved such problem? TIA. -- Jaroslaw Jaros Berezowski -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Console problem after upgrade to Woody
Hi everybody. I have upgraded my Potato box to Woody. Seems that almost all is OK except console behaviour: I have lost support for console iso02 mapping from fonty package. I've tried to completely reload and reinstall libc6, libreadline4, with no results. Fonts are displayed properly, but I can't input any polish character from keyboard. On the other box, system installed from scratch with those settings copied from my box works fine. Starting X with XKB set to 'pl' produces message: parse error: line 1 of stdin Errors encountered in stdin; not compiled Couldn't load XKB map, falling back to pre-XKB map and of course I have no polish kbd Seems that upgrade has messed up input layer. Any suggestion? -- Jaroslaw Jaros Berezowski -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: kppp error
can't connect anymore with kppp I logged out while I was connected and kppp was running. After I logged in kppp didn't work anymore. Sorry can't open modem, kppp say's As root kppp still works, because when I logged out I was user. So I think there must be something changed in my home directory ? Does any body know this problem, and can you help me solve this problem !!! Perhaps kppp didn't removed the modem lock file when killed. Remove it manually. Is this problem a bug from kppp, because I think it should not be a Rather the effect of your behaviour :-( problem to logout while kppp is running. -- Jaroslaw Jaros Berezowski
Re: Install Printer under Linux
On Sat, 19 Jun 1999, you wrote: Dear Jaroslaw, many thanks for your interest. Actually debian system is new for me, So could you please let me know step by step how can I install my printer to my PC. First I have kernel with lpr support installed in my system also I have lpr command what after that?. How can I adjustments GhostScript options for StylusColor device)?. early reply is better for me Sorry, I was away few days, so the answer is a bit late. with my best regards aboanber Ok, I assume you have the physical installation correct. 1. You have to have kernel with lp support (note that under 2.2.x kernels You have a bucket of features related with lp: parport, parport_pc, parport_probe etc, and under 2.2.x typical printer port is /dev/lp0 instead of /dev/lp1 under 2.0.x). 2. You should install the printer daemon and utils package (lpd or recommended lprng). This will provide the daemon and programs like lpr, lpc ,lpq, lprm. 3. Install gs and gsfonts packages (and gv if You want to have the viewer fo *.ps files). 4. Install magicfilter and suggested packages (dselect will tell You about suggested packages). These packages are user in input filters to convert some formats onto PostScript. Then, You will be allowed to print files of many formats, like $lpr foo1.ps foo2.pdf foo3.troff 5. Run #magicfilterconfig (#magicfilterconfig --force if it refuses to run because of already configured printers). This utility will show a brief example of values and ask You for some settings in loop for each printer: a) the full printer name (done ends the loop). b) short name (the spool dir will have this name). c) device path (see the note 1.). d) than magicfilterconfig prints the so-called input filters to be used - choose for example stylus_color_360dpi. I will explain the setting below. If You will follow these instructions, the magicfilterconfig will have filled the /etc/printcap file with chosen settings and created the spool directory and some control files inside for each printer. Now look into /etc/printcap. You will see something like : # # Copyright (c) 1983 Regents of the University of California. # All rights reserved. # # Redistribution and use in source and binary forms are permitted # provided that this notice is preserved and that due credit is given # to the University of California at Berkeley.

Each virtual printer (their names are self-explanatory) maps onto the same physical printer. You can create more than one entry if You need different print settings and specify the -P printer_name in lpr command. So, You can see that the differences between virtual printers are the input filters. With magicfilter come only basic filters. I have copied stylus_color_360dpi-filter onto stylus_color_360dpi_mono-filter and stylus_color_360dpi_mono-filter and made some modifications to each. Each input filter is the set of converters' invocations like gs or enscript. Every print job is processed to determine the data type (by using some magic values - specific file content parts) and then the conversion is applied (one or multiple stage pass - some formats need temporal another format storage like temporal files or pipes). The ultimate result is the printer-specific data stream sent to printer device. Jobs wich cannot be converted are not printed and the mail with error message is sent back to user. For Epson printers the ultimate stage is handled by GhostScript with StylusColor device (ESC/P2 printers are fairly supported - my friends with other printers' vendors have big problems with configuration of their printers). Look into /etc/magicfilter/stylus_color_360dpi-filter. You will see lines like: #
Re: Install Printer under Linux
Dear, I have Installed debian pakage under my PC and it's great and very easy to work on it. Now I have one problem, I have EPSON STYLE PHOTO inkjet printer may I aske you please to help me to install it to work with linux under my PC?. with my best regards Yours Sincerely Aboanber I have Epson Stylus Color 400 and currently no problem with it. If your printer accepts the output of some Stylus Color filters of Magicfilter you can use it (eventually you will have to do fine adjustments of GhostScript options for StylusColor device). So, you can try the ghostscript (+PS fonts) and magicfilter (+some related packages like netpbm), but previously ensure you have kernel with lp support. -- Jaroslaw Jaros Berezowski

lp0 problem
Hey. After switching from 2.0.36 to 2.2.5 I've lost the lp support working. Copying into /dev/lp0 causes deadlock of executing process. Here are some config infos: *** #dmesg snip parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7, dma 3 [SPP,PS2] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). snip *** When the printer is on during boot, there is one additional line: *** #dmesg snip parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7, dma 3 [SPP,PS2] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). snip lp0 off-line *** Here are some /proc files contents: *** /proc/parport/0/hardware base: 0x378 irq:7 dma:3 modes: SPP,PS2 /proc/parport/0/devices lp /proc/ioports snip 0378-037a : parport0 snip *** Note that under 2.0.36 printer is working (as /dev/lp1 of course).

Epson SC 400
Hi. I'm trying to improve my printer performance. I have installed magicfilter and related soft and have gs set up. This works OK, but veeery slowly, because each print job is done in color mode. Does anybody know how to set Epson SC driver for gs to enter blackwhite mode ? Jaros
RE: serious ppp problem
Hi, Amy. About your ppp0 interface problem: It seems that you don't have compiled-in the PPP support into your kernel (this support is required for ppp0 net device). Solution: Reconfigure and recompile kernel (in 2.2.x kernel module form is recommended because some parts of PPP are available only as module). Jaros
Troubles with 2.2.3
I have a trouble with 2.2.3 kernel (updated from 2.0.36). During system shutdown when unmounting root filesystem sometimes I get message that it's busy and can't be unmounted. Why? Scripts stop all daemons and other processes are killed. Does somebody else have such problem?
