This is becoming the "burn from hell" session! Is your friggin iso corrupted? Did you run a md5sum on it? Have you tried mounting the iso, before you burn it, to see what it looks like. This is basic shit, and you should be getting a nice burn with the command you are using at the CLI... BTW when responding to the list, cut out all the crap we do not need to see again.

Do the md5 sumchecks match or not? see man md5sum If corrupted, the fix is easy and quick. Just download again on top of the existing file using rsync. rsync will recognise that you already have the requested file and will go into a special "update in place" mode using tranmitted and received local sumchecks to identify the necessary changes. see man rsync -- Ron.

[expert] [OT] Monitor tests
I just managed to acquire a second-hand Sun 21" monitor (which are rebadged Sony Trinitrons). I have a six-month warranty on the device, and I wanted to use that period to try to make sure that the monitor is is in good and working order and won't fall apart after the warranty has expired. Are there any 'tests' that I can subject the monitor to? So far, I have connected it in place of my usual (17") monitor and I am using it for my everyday work. I have also fiddled with the controls so I could get a good picture, and I have viewed a few movies on it. So far, so good. I have noticed two fine lines going across the screen which I can't seem to get rid of. I have heard that these are normal for Trinitron (aperture grille) monitors. Is this true? The lines are barely noticable, so I can live with them if they are not a sign of impending failure. TIA -- Sridhar Dhanapalan The dark ages were caused by the Y1K problem.

[expert] printer setting ????
Hi , after the old hp720c died, purchased a lexmark z53 as it has linux drivers..Apart from being a bit noisy works well on the winblows machine. on this machine runnning 8.1 with the drivers loaded, its not printing, even though its says it is. syslog is showing each time I attempt to print "lp0: incompatability mode" Should the par port in the bios be set to EPP or ECP, as that s the only thing I can think of .?? Theres a lack of info on the lexmark site, and nothing in the blurb with it, apart from basic winblows stuff TIA -- Best regards Richard Bown Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

ISA was always pesky and hard to detect, and manual interrupt jumpers were great for geeks and fearsome for everyone else, and PlugNPray was about equally unsatisfactory for everyone. The tools are there to manage the system with some effort, but are being discontinued in newer systems (as a general trend). For example, some boot and install kernels no longer have modules to support the 1995/96 non-ATAPI CD drives that were attached to ISA sound cards. This is not necessarily a bad thing. A mature 6.1 system can serve very nicely on those older machines with the 2.2.19 kernel and perform better than the more modern stuff which is oriented toward more resources than one can conveniently add to older machines. I remember 6.1 in service on a Shuttle motherboard with two fairly large disks being the fileserver backup and the internet gateway and the mailserver for 15 office productivity machines running 7.0 or 7.1 for about a year without one single second of downtime and no reboots. Needless to say, one will learn a _lot_ more linux on 6.1 than on 8.1, and that learning is forced if one wants to use it. Of course there is a barrier in terms of updates, but we still produce updates for 7.2 which will generally be adaptable to older systems with a little poking in the SRPMS to correct for the old, non-standard directory structures.

Re: [expert] adaptec ava 1502-a
I was able to get an old Adaptec 1522 card and 2G SCSI disk a few years back, which I put into a pentium machine. I had all sorts of problems getting it to work properly. There seemed to be conflicts with the sound card and with the network card. None of the problems jumped out at me and said "here I am", most were worked out by examining the /proc files and by trial-and-error. I was able to get some documentation from Adaptec's web site, and spent a lot of time moving jumpers on the card. Ultimately this did get me there! At install time, Mandrake didn't auto- sense the card straight away, but when I told it that it was there, it did see it and picked up all the settings properly (eg. IRQ) without me having to tell it explicitly. This route may be worth you trying.

Re: [expert] adaptec ava 1502-a

[expert] Anyone know about SMTP after POP?
Hi, I'd like to be able to allow a friend of mine who has an account on my ML 8.1 machine to use my SMTP server for sending mail. I'm running Postfix and the POP3/IMAP4 server package that Mandrake supplies in an rpm. Obviously, I don't want to open my mail server up to wide-open relay. Has anyone set up a system where they can use a POP3 login to authenticate the IP address for a few minutes, so that Postfix will accept the relay from that particular IP address? (Known, I believe, as SMTP-after-POP authentication?) Any help or pointers in the right direction would be appreciated! --Dave Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [expert] Can you block out entire netblocks?
Pierre, Thanks for this (I'm going to put some of it on a WikiLearn page as a reminder to me), but there were some things I didn't understand in reading your pages. Questions embedded below and afterwards. http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Wikilearn/FightingSpam Pierre Fortin wrote: > If you have your own domain/IP, you can use PostFix' anti-spam features to greatly >refuse spam before it gets delivered... Most spam comes through "open relays" and by >blocking mail from any known open relay, we can virtually shutdown anonymous spam. >This will eventually force the spammers to use their own resources and might make >prosecution more likely; but that's orthoganal and argumentative... :^) So, I think you're saying that if I'm running my own email server on the Internet, I can make sure it's not an open relay, thus minimizing spam for others (and myself). However, even if I'm not running my own email server, I can still submit apparent open relay sites to ordb for testing and possible blacklisting. (Right?) > I've noticed that since I've begun submitting spam relay hosts to >http://ordb.org/submit/, spam attempts have dropped off to a trickle. In fact, the >spam *attempts* (blocked by postfix) have dropped from ~50-70/day to a few every >couple of days... Ok, now I understand -- the number of attempts to use your machine as a relay have dropped to a few every couple of days. > It's fun to be a spam fighter... :^) For more info, see my postfix page at >http://pfortin.com/Linux/PostFix -- also, easy to miss but potentially useful for the >mail-header-challenged is http://pfortin.com/Linux/PostFix/ORDBing.html I've looked at both these pages, and the first one should be useful to me as I try to configure postfix for my (local) server. I've reviewed the second, but I really don't understand what the key characteristic is that let's you decide which header represents the open relay. Or, do you more or less "assume" it is one of the first three and (worst case) submit the IPs from the first three received headers for testing? If that's the case, I understand. If there is something more to look for, how about looking at the headers below and tell me which (if any) of the headers represent an open relay, and how you determined that.

I've just gone through a similar situation with an AVA-1505 card. It uses ioport 0x340 and irq 10 (or 11, can't remember just now). Try this at the command line, as root: modprobe aha152x io=0x340 irq=10 (try 11 if 10 doesn't work). On my AVA-1505 card, the above works and "lsmod" shows that the module is loaded. If I then do a "modprobe sr_mod", I get to use my SCSI cdrom. I automate the loading of the kernel modules, by putting the two modprobe lines as the last two lines in /etc/rc.local. That is the only way I've managed to get them to work; specifically, they won't work from an initrd. But I'm going to try the "append="aha152x=." route next and see what happens. This SCSI card was not picked up by the installer for Mandrake 8.2 beta 2, nor did the installer allow me to manually configure the card. A post-install manual configuration is the only way that works. -- Cheers, Rob Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

However I CAN ping live internet addresses from behind the firwall without a problem. Can anyone guess what im doing wrong?? I thought maybe the firwall just blocks pings from the inside to the outside, but my browser does not seem to be able to surf the net. (I can get to the web admin) on another not, I cant seem to get the DHCP server of the firewall to work either, but I assume that is another problem, but I thought I would throw it in in case it might be connected.
