Kppp and ppp
Hi I am trying to use kppp as a friendly interface to my dialup connection, the goal is to provide a easy to use program to all the users of a Debian system. I have managed to configure de dialup connection through the pppconfig program, pon and poff are working fine, but kppp is not. I have tried the automatic configuration (Portugal,Netc), and the manual configuration, in both situations I receive the following message: "The remote system is required to authenticate itself..." and nop :( i) what are (and where) the logs of kppp? ii) I read the html-manual and there the speak about using the ppp configuration, but they don't explain how. Can you give me a hint? Thanks. -- Pedro Quaresma de Almeida e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Modem does not work
Hi
I have bought (two day ago) a modem, it says (in the windows software)
that it is a "Motorols SM56 PCI, Speakerphone Modem" and it is on
COM4.
I already managed to put it working under "MicroMole" ("MicroDull"
(soft!?) in portuguese), but in Linux...
I already try to use minicom, pon, seyon, kppp, ... but no luck :(
The /proc/pci says
PCI devices found:
Bus 0, device 0, function 0:
Host bridge: Intel 440BX - 82443BX Host (rev 3).
Medium devsel. Master Capable. Latency=64.
Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe000 [0xe008].
...
Bus 0, device 7, function 3:
Bridge: Intel 82371AB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 2).
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable.
Bus 0, device 8, function 0:
Communication controller: Motorola Unknown device (rev 0).
Vendor id=1057. Device id=5600.
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 11. Master Capable.
Latency=64. Min Gnt=1.Max Lat=255.
Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe900 [0xe908].
...
Bus 1, device 0, function 0:
VGA compatible controller: Matrox Matrox G200 AGP (rev 1).
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 11. Master Capable.
Latency=64. Min Gnt=16.Max Lat=32.
Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe800 [0xe808].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe400 [0xe400].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe500 [0xe500].
Its seems that it does not recognise de modem "Motorola Unknown
device" and that it shares the same irq with the graphics card
"IRQ11".
Can you help me? Thanks.

Here is what I did. 1. From http://www.suse.de/XSuSE/XSuSE_E.html, I got the following for my Matrox G200 video card, xmatrox-2.2-0.i386.rpm xsuseconfig-981102.tgz 2. I ran alien xmatrox-2.2-0.i386.rpm which created the debian file xmatrox_2.2-1_i386.deb I install this xmatrox_2.2-1_i386.deb file, dpkg -i xmatrox_2.2-1_i386.deb 3. I uncompressed and installed xsuseconfig-981102.tgz This has the program xf86config, which will recognize your matrox G200 card. Specifically this tar file has two files, /usr/X11R6/bin/xf86config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Cards These two files replace those belonging to the xbase package. 4. Backup /etc/X11/XF86Config, then run xf86config 4. You probably don't even need to run xf86config. If you don't mind using your old resolutions (eg, 1024x768) and the old amounts for video memory, then you need only change the first line of Xserver to /usr/X11R6/bin/XFCom_Matrox This surprised and delighted me that I didn't need to run xf86config or alter XF86Config when going from an NEC C500 monitor and a Number 9 S3V video card to a newer Nokia 445Xpro monitor and a Matrox G200 video card. I eventually did run xf86config, though, with no real problems. This xf86config seemed to know I had 8192 KB memory. The package xmatrox_2.2-0.i386.rpm has the files /usr/X11R6/bin/XFCom_Matrox /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/README.XFCom_Matrox /usr/doc/xmatrox/copyright /usr/doc/xmatrox/changelog.Debian /usr/doc/xmatrox/buildinfo.Debian All these are uniquely "matrox" so present no conflicts with other files. When you upgrade packages with dselect, dselect won't know the location of xmatrox (for all practical purposes, I removed my created matrox debian package), though it knows you installed it and what its files are. When you eventually do upgrade to a version of debian with the Matrox G200 driver (maybe in March, 1999?), then you can of course purge this xmatrox package. Any upgrade of xbase will replace your two new files from suse. In the past I could more easily get my video card's driver, but once I got the xmatrox package, I found installation much simpler. For example, I did not need to do an "X --probeonly" to get the clocks. > I am (hopefully) putting a Matrox Millennium G200 AGP in my linux box > next month.

Auto Shut-off
Hi My new box has an automatic shut-off capability, i.e. in ms-windows you make shutdown and the box shuts itself off (without the need of pressing the button). How can I have the same beaveour in Linux? Now, whenever I want to shut-off the computer, I do a shutdown at Linux, them I must!!! (the switch-off button does not work, it is only a switch-on button) go to ms-windows to do a shutdown there (with the corresponding shut-off action).

Linux & Bad Blocks
Hi
I have a hard disk that had gained a couple of bad blocks recently.
Linux (Debian 1.3.1) is having problems dealing with them
"kernel panic ..."
what can I do to mark the bad block in Linux?
Shoud I go to msdos and format the disk?
will this last option solve my problem?
Thanks

The debian package says: Description: ISA Plug-And-Play configuration utilities. This program is suitable for all systems, whether or not they include a PnP BIOS. In fact, a PnP BIOS adds some complications because it may already activate some cards so that the drivers can find them, and these tools can unconfigure them, or change their settings causing all sorts of nasty effects.

If you choose Debian you must install the libc6 system.

The (La)TeX font files in a Debian box are at:
/var/spool/texmf/pk/
e.g.
/var/spool/texmf/pk/ljfivemp/
you can go there and delete the file you want (or all of them).

Nis refusing logins
Hi == I have instaled nis_3.1.deb (with libc6) but I am having problems with the non-local users. I have the following entry in /etc/passwd +piupiu:*:0:0::/home/merlin/msky:/bin/bash but when the user piupiu try to login Debian GNU/Linux 1.3 hilbert.mat.uc.pt hilbert login: piupiu Password: Login incorrect What is the problem (and the solution)? I have set the ypdomain correctly, ypwhich finds the correct machine, ypcat passwd | grep piupiu finds the correct user, but...

Cards using the Plug and Play protocol
Hi
==
I have bought a SoundBlaster 16 PnP (Plug and Play) sound card
to my computer, since then I am trying to put it to work with litle
success. I manage to ear the CDs (booting first in MS-Dos mode) but
thats all.
I reed in the Sound-HOWTO that
"Cards using the Plug and Play protocol are not currently supported
but should be in the future"
Is this still true? (I have kernel-source-1.99.7-0.deb).

Netscape - bus error
Hi.
I want to install Netscape in my Debian-Linux 486DX2 (66Mhz).
I had obtained from my CD destribution, and from the archives the
netscape_3.01-1.deb
and
netscape-v301-export.x86-unknown-linux-elf.tar.gz
then I try to install "dpkg -i netscape_3.01-1.deb" and all works fine
(no error messages), but when I try to run netscape I obtain the
following output:
$ netscape
unable to obtain ... (I do not remenber exactly something about colors)
unable to obtain ...
bus error
$
Can you help me?
