 era stato detto che la Mdk 7.2 con il kernel 2.4.x aveva problemi per la
 connessione ad internet.
 Ecco i passi che ho compiuto:

Come mai hai configurato tutto a mano invece di usare un dialer come
KPPP, wvdial (e gtkdial)? Funzionano piu' che bene.

[expert-it] rescue CD e reboot dopo correzioni

Riassunto:

Strano,.. stai montando in *rw* mode i filesytem sulla '/root/ripara'? 
Comunque non c'è bisogno di partire in rescue ogni volta: dai 
un'occhiata all '/etc/inittab', il runlevel 3 dovrebbe partire 
normalmente senza X, quindi trovati una login shell libera (CTRL+ALT+Fx, 
x=1-6), entra da root e dai 'init 3' (o un numero di runlevel tra 1 e 
quello che avvia  X -1). A questo punto fai tutte le modifiche che vuoi 
e poi cambia ancora runlevel ('init 5' o il numero corrispondente 
all'avvio di X). Provvisoriamente puoi anche modificare la inittab 
impostando il runlevel di default a 3, così X non prova a partire al boot.
Se vuoi bootare senza X, digita 'linux 3' (o 'linux S' - single user 
mode) al boot.

Ultima spiaggia: copia 'XF86Config' su floppy ;)

hasta luego!

Re: [expert] interface lo

2001-11-17 Thread Andreas Müller

Am Donnerstag, 15. November 2001 07:20 schrieben Sie:

  I have a problem that is baffling me. At boot interface lo is not brought
 up although it is included in the /etc/rc.d/init.d/network script. I am not
 familiar with the syntax of the script but its in there. Also in the
 script /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-lo there is ONBOOT=yes. I
 added it to the routing table once manually and it worked. Then I reboot
 and when I try to add it manually again this happens:
 root@localhost /root]# route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 lo
 SIOCADDRT: No such device
 I have never heard of interface lo not being brought up. Can anyone help?
 Maybe sending the script(i think it's /etc/rc.d/init.d/network) that
 would normally start it at boot so i can compare what I have, but for some
 reason I can't see this changing as I never changed it. What is this
 SIOCADDRT: No such device

I don't know if this helps, but I had a similar problem. I had lo activated 
with all the X tools, but it wasn't started at boot.


From a previous mail:

 Check /etc/rc.d/rcN.d/, where N is the run level number you are in (3 is 
 most common for CLI and 5 for x/k/gdmj).  Check to make sure that there is 
 a symlink that looks something like S10network - ../init.d/network in 
 that directory.  If that symlink is there, check 
 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ for the existence of ifcfg-lo.  That 

well all the files U describe do exist. Now I also have ACTIVATED the network
service. But it still did not work. Then I just checked the file
/etc/sysconfig/network and it said NETWORKING=no, I just changed it to
NETWORKING=yes, and now all is working as it should. I suppose that ACTIVATING
the network service should just do the same when using linuxconf or Drakconf,
set NETWORKING to yes, but it apparantly did not work untill I changed it
manually.

Hope this helps...

Re: [expert] cups again

2001-11-17 Thread Bill Kenworthy

Thanks Andre, I tried the turboprint driver, but the problem is the
same.  Before every page, I get a page (for every page in the print
job!) with 4 ascii lines:

BJLSTART
ControlMode=Common
AckTime=Short
BJLEND

Greping the disk shows some binary files like libgimpprint.so have these
lines in them, hence the search for a different driver.  However, it
appears to be a general cups problem, perhaps a setting, but I have no
idea where it is!

 Sorry to butt into this thread, but I had problems with the output quality

 I tried Turboprint and the quality is simply amazing. Perhaps you might try 
 their free driver - your printer is supported. To the best of my

 luck-in and get your printer to work.

2001-11-17 Thread Rony Shapiro

Hi,

First, congrats on finding the problem.

Actually, it sounds like a programmer made an implicit assumption on the
panel, which breaks when the panel isn't in the default position (for
example, getting a handle to the panel by querying the window manager for
the botom-most window, and not checking for a NULL return value). This is
the kind of bug report that programmers love. Welcome to Sun's QA team...
(you did report this to them, right?)

 Hi,

 First, congrats on finding the problem.

Thanks 

 Actually, it sounds like a programmer made an implicit assumption on the
 panel, which breaks when the panel isn't in the default position (for
 example, getting a handle to the panel by querying the window manager for
 the botom-most window, and not checking for a NULL return value). This is
 the kind of bug report that programmers love. Welcome to Sun's QA team...
 (you did report this to them, right?)

Defintaely, its odd that the problem doesnt exhibit itslef in openoffice 
however. And yes, of course i reported the problem :)

[expert] Strange new RPMDrake Error

2001-11-17 Thread Timothy R.Butler

Hi again everyone,
  I thought everything was running smoothly, but not so fast. :-) Software 
Manager/RPMDrake is reporting a new error. I went in to install some new 
software (KDE-devel packages), and when I try to install the RPM's, I get 
this message:

   Some errors occurred while Checking your wishes: 
Bad, unreadable, or not found packages:

  After that, it proceeds to mention the names of all of the packages I am 
trying to install. Finally:

   Sorry, but all packages raised an error. So I can't proceed with the 
installation.

  Any ideas what would have caused this to happen?

Re: [expert] Strange new RPMDrake Error

2001-11-17 Thread Timothy R.Butler

Hi again,
  It seems to be working... I launched RPMDrake and added a second source 
for CD 1, and then - even after removing that source - everything seems to be 
working.

  Thanks,
   Tim

[expert] KDE Locations in MDK

2001-11-17 Thread Timothy R. Butler

Hi again,
  I'm still getting use to the idea of KDE not being in /opt/kde, so I'm a 
bit stumped here. I'm trying to compile Mosfet Liquid, however it seems to be 
installing in /usr/local/kde rather than /usr/bin, /usr/lib, etc. Is this 
what it's suppose to be doing?

  Thanks,
   Tim
