Subject: Annoying Key Combination for Shutting Down my Computer

Hi, there is a really annoying key combination that can be set in the bios
that will turn off the power supply on my computer, it would be fine if it
was the Turbo-Power keys on my key board but it's not it's
Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
The computer dual boots with Win 95 and when ever Win 95 crashes this is
usually the easiest way to turn the thing off, is there any way I can get
Linux to disable this function but still keep it active for when I really
need to kill the thing. Or do I just have to turn it off in the bios and try
and get at the power button?
Thanks in advance

Large and LBA differ mainly in the number of C/H/S translated heads they
support. Large poops out at 64 heads (2G), while LBA provides C/H/S
mappings for up to 255 heads (8G) or possibly more. Switching translation
modes without repartitioning is somewhat risky, and anything
BIOS-dependent like DOS or NTLDR or LILO will suffer full confusion when
the translation mode the BIOS uses switches.
I *think* that you could boot Linux from a floppy, then re-run LILO with
boot=/dev/hda and then you could boot Linux from the hard drive... that
may not be what you want though.

Hey gang:
I haven't bought or built a PC since the early Pentium days (been spending
my time playing with SUN and HP server equipment). Anyway, I find that
it's about time for me to build a new development/test system to use with
NT and Linux. To that end, I've tried to identify what I believe will make
a good system and choose parts that are compatible.
I'm interested in thougts that other readers might have about my chosen
configuration, and whether my expected costs for the parts seem reasonable:
Tyan SMP P3 Tiger 133 S1834 motherboard 160
ATX 6 drive bay case with 250W power supply 30
PS2 keyboard with tactile response 30
PS2 3 button mouse 10
2 each 256MB 72 bit PC/100 SDRAM600
2 each 600mhz P3 processors (slot 1 type SECC2) 440
2 each Maxtor EIDE 18GB fixed disk 220
IDE cd-rom reader/burner200
Adaptec 2940UW SCSI card175
2X AGP graphics card (S3 chipset with 8MB) 300
20 inch Vision Master 1600x1200 monitor 1000
100mb PCI network card 30
-
3195
I'm wondering whether I can gather the needed parts within the price range
I've listed and I need to make sure that the parts I've listed are all
compatible. Is there anything important that I've forgotten to list?
Is anyone running a similar configuration and can you give me any idea
about performance or noted problems?
I can be reached by posting a followup, or email me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] where the digits and the word (german) are
removed from the domain name. The (O) is a letter, not a digit...
Thanks

Linux can and will use a 5th serial port if one's really there. More than
likely, there isn't a real serial port there, though. Check the list at
http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html and make sure that your modem
isn't on the blacklist there. Most computers these days ship with
LoseModems installed instead of Real Modems. For the easiest and best
modem experience with Linux, buy a Real Modem that's external and plugs
into the serial port.
If by some lucky chance you have a Real Modem that's internal, take a look
at http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO.html

Quake uses svgalib for the mouse, not gpm. In fact I heard that it is
best to killall gpm before running quake (I used a script to do that, run
q2 and then restart gpm when quitting).
But the problem is that you need to change your mouse in
/etc/vga/libvga.config from 'mouse Microsoft' to 'mouse PS2'. As you
found out, your ammo disappears rather quickly otherwise.

Subject: IWILL SCSI card - Kernel panic, I panic:-)
Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2000 10:19:12 GMT
Hi All Linux Experts,
I have purchased an IWILL SCSI ULTRA Wide card that I want to
use instead of my old Adaptec Ultra SCSI card.
When Linux boots up it tries to do a modprobe and fails
to load the advansys.o module in '/lib/modules/2.2.16-3/scsi'
and goes into kernel panic.
I have tried adding the driver statement in
/etc/conf.modules
where my old SCSI card was set up.
What am I doing wrong?
I tried to boot the RH6.2 CD-ROM and the card is found just
fine. It is as if the kernel can not access the
'/lib/modules/2.2.16-3/scsi' directory when booting up
with the card.
Do I need to pass anything to the kernel via Lilo?
My '/lib/modules/2.2.16-3/scsi/advansys.0' resides
on a different partition from the boot partition.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Anthony

I doubt you'll need a driver, but the card will probably need
configuring before you can use its ports. I had this problem with my new
PCI parallel port card, and had to write to the vendor for specs so that
I could write a little kernel module! However, since this module's job
was only to configure the card, all I had to do was load it in rc.local
and then immediately unload it.
The 2.3 / 2.4 kernel has done a lot of work on IO ports; I suggest
contacting the Parallel Port developers and seeing which cards are
supported. (Of course, you could also go the other way - get a card and
then work on getting it supported in Linux.) If you're using Linux 2.2
then they should be able to tell you what you need to do to get your
card working.
Cheers,
Chris

I'm not sure exactly what you're indicating here. I assume you're
putting some variation of the lines above in your lilo.conf file.
The proper syntax for such a line would be
append="ether=11,0x7b80,eth0"
The important part is the
append=
Put this outside any section describing a boot image (I usually put
such things at the top of the file).
