[expert] APIC errors

[Larry Sword]

Help

Unit: Abit Motherboard w/ 2x366 Celerons OC to 550MHz.
VGA: Maxtor 400 @ IRQ 18
SC:  Soundblaster Live @ IRQ 17
Memory: 256Mb
OS: Linux-Mandrake 8.0 SMP Kernel

1. After loading Linux-Mandrake Version 8.0 I'm finding the following
message:

May  2 18:15:09 sword kernel: Unknown bridge resource 0: assuming
transparent
May  2 18:25:23 sword kernel: APIC error on CPU0: 00(08)
May  2 18:25:23 sword kernel: APIC error on CPU1: 00(04)
May  2 18:33:06 sword kernel: APIC error on CPU0: 08(02)
May  2 22:27:21 sword kernel: APIC error on CPU0: 02(02)
May  3 08:57:16 sword kernel: Unknown bridge resource 0: assuming
transparent
May  3 18:39:57 sword kernel: APIC error on CPU0: 00(02)

This is after opening xmms and playing a location radio station such as
Live365.
I've checked numerous time and the message occurs only after I use xmms
for any reason.

2. Things I've tried without success.

Reduced the cpu speed to 366 (original speed of cpu)
Changed MPC to and  from 1.1 to 1.4

Any thought on what could be causing this and have any others
experienced this
type of behavior in L-M 8.0?

Thank you

Larry

Re: [expert] Problem compling kernel in Mandrake 8.0

[John Wolford]

To be precise, the how-to's give the order thusly:

make dep clean modules modules_install bzdisk
and then later "depmod -a" and then if you're happy with everything when you
boot up with your floppy, back into /usr/src/linux and
make install

I think you modules_install implies modules, but still the point is that you
are making the image before the modules. Could that have something to do with
it?

Hmm. This makes me think you want /dev/dsp to be mode 662, with
owner/group being root/audio.  This way anyone could write to it
(is that useful?) but only those in audio or root could read it,
just in case you care about eavesdroppers...

Just a thunk..

Re: [expert] Problem compling kernel in Mandrake 8.0

[Kenneth Lierman Jr.]

I had the same problem on 2 different computers suddenly it started
working on one of my computers, and i noticed it was using gcc instead of
kgcc.  No idea if that's important, or why it's doing that.

Also, i did a clean install of 8.0 on a friends computer and it failed in
the same way...

Actually, I thought the correct procedure was to add the user to the
audio group, allowing control over who can/cant play sound.  I think
there is a case to have audio added as a default group to any user
created though.

Re: [expert] Re: Are you sure that IP Virtual Server is supported by the kernel

[Francisco Alcaraz Ariza]

Civileme, the file was /etc/rc.d/init.d/lvs; I commented some lines and now 
not more error messages in startup ^_^

MDK 8.0 look great now, not errors, true graphic acceleration, Usb Scanner, 
DVD (xine and videoland runs fine using xvideo), ip-maskering, printers, 
cable-modem, sound. 

What more could I ask for!
:-( Yeah!, the pcmcia ethernet card in the laptop (Ovislink fast ethernet), 
but is very difficult (nobody in the world seemed to have reached that); 
perhaps change to a clearly compatible with linux.
The happyness never could be complete, could it?

See you, thanks for your attention; I look forward to hearing from you and 
crashtesters runing again ^_^

[expert] Konqueror fails .gif

[Todd Flinders]

I seem to be having a problem displaying .gifs with
Konqueror.  For example, the .gifs on the front page
(each of the for corners of their box) don't display. 
Does anyone have any ideas?

.gifs display normally in Netscape 4.77.

I'm using Mandrake 8.0.

Re: [expert] .htaccess in Apache

[Stephen Lawrence Jr.]

The .htaccess file goes in the protected folder, the .htpasswd folder should
be placed somewhere "NOT" in your webserver document root.
What does your .htaccess look like? Have you run 'htpasswd' to create
a .htpasswd file already?

There is always a way to make a bootup error message disappear unles it is 
direct from the kernel.

Most such messages are generated by initscripts.  To find where yours is omig 
from fairly rapidly, get into a terminal, su to root, cd to /etc/rc.d/ and

# rgrep -i -l -r "ipvsadm" /etc/rc.d

That should find you yht call or calls that might be generating the error 
message.  Comment out the appropriate lines (watch that you don't break 
loops, either take them out or leave them alone), and no more error messages.

It is not necessarily a good practice to do this--usually error messages mean 
something important, but sometimes they are spurious as this one appears to 
be.

Re: [expert] Mandrake 8.0 & Voodoo DRI

[John Kloian III]

Sorry, that's what I meant kdm.anyway I edited /etc/X11/prefdm and
made the following change:

preferred=
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop ]; then
. /etc/sysconfig/desktop >/dev/null 2>&1
[ -n "$DISPLAYMANAGER" ] && DESKTOP=$DISPLAYMANAGER
if [ "$DESKTOP" = GNOME -o "$DESKTOP" = Gnome ]; then
preferred=gdm
elif [ "$DESKTOP" = "KDE" -o "$DESKTOP" = "KDE1" -o "$DESKTOP" =
"KDE2" ]; then
preferred=/usr/bin/gdm
elif [ "$DESKTOP" = AnotherLevel ] ; then
preferred=/usr/X11R6/bin/gdm
fi
fi


Notice in the last two preferred statements I changed kdm to gdm.  this
was documented in an email from someone else whose name escapes me about
four days ago, so he should get the credit for this fix.  He did note that
although this is not the preferred method for affecting this fix it does
work.

I get these all the time, and as near as I can tell, they're just making
a connection, trying to log in and getting nothing.  Then going away.  

Still and all, I assume that you have checked xfer.log, auth.log, last
and so forth, and have found them to be without gaps?  You don't have
any .bash_history files suddenly linked to /dev/null or anything funny
like that?  It might be worth your time to conjure up some `find' magic
on your system, to find any files that might have been modified around
that time.

To prevent it from happening again?  You could tighten up access using
hosts.allow and hosts.deny, and only allow from known hosts.  I believe
that xinetd has this facility, too.  If not, it would certainly be in
tcpd.  Or in your ipchains script, if you have one.  Or, you could turn
off the ftp server and use scp instead, unless you have a compelling
reason for keeping your ftp daemon running.

Reporting:  Really all you can do (to my knowledge) is contact the owner
(hostmaster) of that netblock and copy over the excerpts of your logs,
indicating the time, date and timezone that they indicate, and hope for
the best.  Since they are .kr, I wouldn't expect a real rapid response.

Again, I'm certainly no expert on this, so if any expert does want to
correct me, I'm more than willing!  :)

[expert] Mandrake 8.0, ALSA, Sound drivers will not load....

[Chuck Reed]

I have tried this on two completely different installs (meaning
different hardware), but I am getting the exact same problem.  When
issuing the command: modprobe snd-card-ymfpci (or whatever your sound
card might be) I get the following error message:

/lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/alsa/snd-card-ymfpci.o.gz: init_module: No such
device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/alsa/snd-card-ymfpci.o.gz: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/alsa/snd-card-ymfpci.o.gz failed
/lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/alsa/snd-card-ymfpci.o.gz: insmod
snd-card-ymfpci failed

This happens on both of my setups with the only difference being that
the sound card name implied is differnet.  So why cannot the module for
the sound cards be loaded?  If the default IO or IRQ is wrong, how and
where do I change it. lspci will return and identifies the sound card
IO.  It seems to be just something simple that I am missing but I am not
sure what.  Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

[expert] Mobility 200E USB Hub

[Arnaud . ATOCH]

I got a Mobility 200E Usb hub with 2 PS/2 connectors for mouse and keyboard.

I can not make both (mouse and keyboard) work at the same time. Depending on
which module is loaded first mouse or keyboard, the other one does not
function.

In /proc/bis/usb/devices, both PS/2 connectors are shown as a single USB
device named "Mobility keyboard and mouse".

Is there a way to fix that ? some special option to insmod ?

Thanks.

What error does it give?  You can try "/usr/sbin/httpd -t" and it will
test your configuration files.

Usually when I have a problem on a new, untouched system, the problem
it is because Apache cannot figure out who it is by querying the
nameserver.  Are you using a real domain name?  If not, uncomment the
line:
#ServerName localhost
and see if it starts.

Re: [expert] xanim doest not work (Can't Open /dev/dsp device)

Permissions. I usually make /dev/dsp world writable, that solves the
problem.

I never understood why only root is allowed to play sound on a freshly
installed system; this forces users to either work as root all the time
(insecure) or modify the permissions anyway, so why don't modern distros
set up the permissions right from the start and save us a couple o'

[expert] Knode ?

[Turgut Kalfaoglu]

This is odd; when I use Knode, the news reader, it shows all articles as 
'missing'. I click on any article and it says missing. It used to work fine,
but it "deteriorated" over time. It used to be that some articles were
fine, others were missing; now they ALL seem missing. I even set 
the expiry settings to just 1 day, and still it lists hundreds of messages;
and none of them have any bodies. Netscape 6 is able to read those
groups and fetch the articles without problems, however.

If you've got /usr/src/linux-2.2.17 AND /usr/src/linux-2.2.19 directories,
full of kernels, OR if you've got /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.17 AND /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.19
then 'just' modify /etc/lilo.conf (assuming lilo - you'll have to look at
grub man page to convert to grub) to include both (if you want to be able
to boot both) or to point back to the older kernel.  Don't forget to fix the
symbols link.

Or, just go back to the /usr/src/linux-2.2.17 dir and say 'make install modules 
modules-install'
(or is that modules_install?  I never can remember ;-)

(and I *think* that's all you need, I'm sure someone will throw in any steps

[expert] 8.0 probs with Toshiba laptop

[Klar Brian D Contr MSG SICN]

I installed Mandrake 8.0 last night, there were a few issues though.
Framebuffer bootup locks at Xwindow startup
Non-FB mode works well though.

8.0 will not see my pcmcia card modem (3com) however beeps twice when inserted
/removed. It does appear that 8.0 *is* seeing my builtin Xircom Winmodem though

During install was not given a chance to make a boot disk, but it turned green

If you choose to install VNC Server from install package lists, it starts upon bootup
and will stall there until you enter a pw, but you dont see it asking for  a pw.

Mandrake's auto-detect for connection to internet defaulted to modem, and I was 
never able to enter a hostname or configure my net card via installation.

AA is terrible with my Savage MX/IX cardset at 1024x768 and 16 bit.

X flashes the whole screen like 4 times before it syncs to it

Where have the KDE screensavers gone to? All I have access to
 is the xscreensaver ones.

That is all I can think of off hand for now, as I haven't had the chance to play with 
it
yet. My system is a PIII 650 128M RAM Savage video Yamaha sound DVD.

I like the network dialog screen giving you the chance to setup the lan, modem
all at once myself.

RE: [expert] samba & windows NT server

[Jose M. Sanchez]

To add users try smbadduser and once done "sync" their passwords with what
they use to get into Windows (the Windows logon) with smbpasswd.

To get Windows workstations to "show" you need to enable file and printer
sharing in Winblows... Once installed in it's options ENABLE "LM ANNOUNCE"
so that the workstations will show up. This is automatic in NT...

The rest of your question is unclear, please restate it.

2) Older snd-card-cs46xx or other drivers lingering at other directories,

Join the club! I was never able to get Samba to Print on a Win NT print 
server (that's all our NT machines are good for).  

Samba/Cups is too complicated for mere mortal!

I'm afraid I'll have to agree with you.
Yet I have found a way to reply to the list automatically
I'm using a folder named "Mandrake" for the mails coming from this list and 
the following filter rule:
subject contains [expert]
set Reply-To [EMAIL PROTECTED]
transfer Mandrake

I just applied the rules to all the messages in this directory and it worked 
fine. Yet I had to put the actions exactely in that order. Transfer first 
then set Reply-To didn't work!

Maybe I should add something to have the original author's address in Cc...

Thanks to all for your help.
