Re: AOL on Linux?

Some time ago I saw on freshmeat.net a package for running linux 
using the AOL dialup service. The package acted in a similar fashion to
PPP in that it provided an IP protocol and address to the linux machine
tunneled over the closed AOL dialup protocol.

I don't know how well it works as I never had the reason to use it
yet.

Hope this is of some help.

Re: xkb settings, BackSpace not working in X

2000-11-01 Thread Olivier Dragon
Ok... let's start with the beginning. Here are the packages I use(some 
might be irrelevant to my problems... included them just in case):

-xfree86-comm v3.3.6-11
-xlib6g v3.3.6-11
-xserver-mach64 v3.3.6-11
-enlightenment v0.16.5-1
-gnome-core v1.2.3-helix

/etc/X11/XF86Config
Section "Keyboard"
 Protocol "Standard"
 XkbRules "xfree86"
 XkbModel "pc102"
 XkbLayout"ca"
EndSection

/etc/X11/Xmodmap
PC keyboard
keycode 22 = BackSpace
keycode 107 = Delete

if more is required please ask. I really want to get rid of this problem 
as it is very annoying to only be able to delete in one direction!!

If you had to say I Obey., then it's X4.01, else it's X3.3.6 - and they
are different!


I've got problems in X with the xkb configuration. In X, my backspace
[<--] button does the same as the [Delete] button. I've tried modifying
my XF86Config file but it doesn't work. Whatever I put in the keyboard
section, nothing changes. I tried changing the language but I always
have the qwerty/us configuration. When I use XF86Setup everything works
fine, even when I click "Done" and X is loaded using the settings. But
whevener I startx after that my keyboard doesn't follow XF86Config
keyboard rules anymore.


Here's the section from my XFree 4 config file, which gives me a UK
keyboard:

-- include 
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen  0  "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice"Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice"Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
[snip]
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier  "Keyboard0"
Driver  "keyboard"
Option  "XkbModel" "pc101"
Option  "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection

NFS mounted /usr

2000-07-28 Thread Fire Dragon
I'm trying to build a small lan and being a bit short on HD space (250MB to
500MB tops) I wanted to have /home /usr and so forth be NFS mounted. I'm
currently having a problem in which the /usr partition that is exported is
corrupted by the client machine (broke exim when I installed ssmtp for
example).

Since I have obviously done something wrong in this I was wondering if
anyone could point me to some instructions for getting /usr to be ignored by
dpkg/apt/... in package installations.

TIA

Kernel bugs in 2.2.x

2000-07-06 Thread Dragon
I've just read from http://geocrawler.com/lists/3/Linux/35/150/3977992
Alan Cox admitted that there are faults in 2.2.x VM, that would affect
transaction at high load.

I'm developing a database server on Debian which is presently upgraded to
woody, and the kernel is 2.2.x. The result of this development project
would affect my company's impression on Linux as a whole. Had it failed,
my company would forget adopting Linux forever.

Since it's too late to rollback to slink, can I just recompile the
2.0.3.x kernel on this already-upgraded-server and left the packages in
woody distribution untouch?

Please kindly advise. Your advise would save the future of Linux here.

Thanks.

Compability of a mother board

2000-07-03 Thread Dragon
I apology if this not the place to ask. If so please refer my question to
the right place. Thanks!

Does Debian support the mother board 'Supermicro PIIIDM3 i840 MB' with 133
external frequency? 

I'd like to plug two Intel PIII 733 S1 133Mhz CPU to test its SMP
capability.

(If I couldn't give the answer by tomorrow this expensive server will be
installed with Windows 2000 which is the last thing I'd like to see. ^^)

Please kindly help!




Compiling kernel2.0.36 on potato?

1999-10-31 Thread The Dragon De Monsyne

Hello, I just reacently upgraded a slink box at work to potato for
warious reasons,   and now I find I'm unable to recompile the
kernel (ix86 box) (I get all sorts of errors about bad asm code. I'm
gathering this is due to an incompatibility btwn the kernel and gcc? 
There was a url for a  patch at suse.de suggested , but it didn't fix the
problem)

I can't use 2.2.x  as I have binary-only drivers for hardware I
need to use (MaxSpeed MaxStation multiconsole card) that don't  work with
2.2

any suggestions?
