Re: Soundblaster 16
Bob Nielsen
i tried to install my isa pnp soundblaster like you discribed, a sound system
should be activated in the kernel...
(now it is a different installation)
i used the things you wrote but it said
output dma timeout
probably irq/dma conflict
what can i do?
i already used different settings for dma16 and irq

wake on lan
hi guys i have the following problem but it seems to me that it is a little OT. i want to use wake on lan for a pc. this pc shall be woken up on lan if another pc is present (this pc sends automaticly the wake sequence) my problem is: i put the pc into the state to be woken up on lan. one pc wakes it up the wake-on-lan-pc wakes up and does several services. now the other pc shuts down and sends a shut down signal to the wake on lan pc (because it shouldnt run all the time) the wake on lan pc shuts down... i cant wake it up later... this is my problem. how do i have to shut it down to be able to start it again? ps what is the difference between shutdown -h and -p (it seems i cant use p) plaese help, my evil brother is sitting at my neck if i cant give him a solution and he is really angry. markus

--- Begin Message --- Is sda1 your root partition? You should cc: the debian list on these, so that other people can read them. I'm no expert I Lilo.

hi Jimmy Richards the solution of the display is 1024x768, but the desktop is 1600x1200 large. you know the desktop is bigger than the screen, so you see only a part of it, if you get up with your mouse, the screen scrolls up, if you go left, down, right, the same procedure... i have your lines you wrote downwards only with 1024x768, which i want to have. first my screen was 1600x1200 and that was to uncomfortable... so i wnted to change it down. first desktop 1600x1200 screen 1600x1200 now desktop 1600x1200 screen 1024x768 i hope soon desktop 1024x768 screen 1024x768 do you know what i mean? thanks for helping me. markus > > > You could do it by editing your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file.

hi my debian gnu/linux 2.2 potato uses kde2 only with 1600x1200 display. everything is small and bad to read, so i would like to change solution to 1024x768, but how can i do that? thanks for help markus
Re: Soundblaster 16
Thank you bob, i said i dont know whether it works as root, but as user it doesnt. but as the person before you wrote i think it would be possible that this would be(root sound, user no sound) but i dont know anyway, also not how to find out. i tried your lines, but i was unshure what exactly to do. you know, using the suse linux sound worked, but i use now debian because my brother told me it is better, by now i know it is different and more complicated, but i keep trying. thanks for your help Bob Nielsen wrote: > mp3blaster or mpg123 should work for audio.
