Subject: Re: lm_sensors and a ASUS A7V
Yes, I did.
Sometime ago. It was one of the 2.4 test(8?) kernels if I remember
correctly.
It is possible.
But I don't remember the exact steps. I do remember that I had to use
the
lm_sensors patch and there was no great difficulty in getting it to work
#lm_sensors
# I2C adapter drivers
#modprobe i2c-viapro
#modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
#modprobe w83781d
#modprobe via686a
This is something I had leftover from that kernel. So you will have
some idea of what modules to compile.
I don't think that all the 4 modules were used though.
At present I run a test12 with no lm_sensors.

I have a Ge2MX which works fine with these drivers.
Do a clean install of the nvidia stuff using the tgz files rather than
the rpms. Use the shell script which you can get at #nvidia on
irc.openprojects.net
to check your system.
Then things should be fine.

Date: Wed, 20 Dec 2000 08:41:30 GMT
I bought a brand new Intel Celeron 566 on a Amptron 133MHz MB. I
successfully installed Redhat 7.0. I tested out FTP into the system and
began to see errors occur. hda: lost interrupt and eth0: Transmit timed
out: Status 7048... then the system would hang. I could also do it with
Telnet. I never did anything but look.
I thought I could be the hard drive cable, so I switched it. I thought
it could be bad sectors, so I reinstalled checking for them. I thought
it was the IDE hard drive, so I got a new one. I thought, perhaps 7.0
doesn't like the Celeron, so I installed 6.2 and ... each time I got
the same problem. I'm at the end of my rope.

I have a dual asus mobo with onboard adaptec scsi running a pair of PIII
550's. Gettimeofday() is oscillating wildly by up to 5s shorterm. Sampling
every 5s at least, I can sometimes go backwards! Averaged out over
30s or so, it's OK. The hardware clock (hwclock -r) is fine and steady.
Running kernel 2.2.18pre18 compiled SMP.
Does anyone recognize these symptoms and remember what to do about them?
I've briefly scanned for mtrr or smp spec compliance in the bios and on
the newsgroups, but not found anything.

Here's a few HOWTO's that might have some of the info you need:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Kiosk-HOWTO.html
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Public-Web-Browser.html
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Thinclient-HOWTO.html
The first two are probably the most relevant. : The 16meg
RAM is the most limiting part - but it works under 95 so
it should work under linux OK. You might want to use IceWM
or another "lightweight" window manager though.

Can Linux do this?
We would like to put some "obsolete" hardware to use as web browser kiosks.
We have Win95 and IE installed on them now, but I though I'd give Linux a
try.
Requirements:
- Run pretty well on 486/66's with 16MB RAM.
- GUI that is fairly easy to use for a non-technical Windows user
- Support 3270 connections to VM mainframe
- Simple web browser with low memory requirements; must be easy to use for
people familiar with IE and Netscape.
- Must be able to "lock down" the desktop so that users cannot change the
configurations at all. The only things we want these machines to be able to
do is browse the web and establish 3270 sessions.
- As an added bonus, it would make my life easier if I can manage these
machines remotely from my office.
- All software components must be freeware.
Does anyone have any opinions on the feasibility of this, and suggestions
for products (3270 client, web browser), and techniques (ideal Linux config,
locking down desktop)?
I'm just getting started with Linux, and I really like what I see so far.
Thanks in advance for your opinions and suggestions!

I have a new PC with a VIA82C586 IDE controller. But I have trouble with
Zip.
In summary, when I connect the Zip drive to the ide controller, Linux
isn't able to recognize
the Hard Disk (a Samsung 20 GB UDMA 66). I thought there was an IRQ

recognizes all IDE drives correctly.
Now I have no ideas to solve this problem and help is more appreciated.

I plan on using four 75 GB (IBM 75GXP) with this running Rehat 6.1/6.2.

I think you should use both:
1. chmod u+s allows your program to start with root privileges and gain
access to ports
2. Calling seteuid(getuid()) as soon as this access is gained, causes it
to give root privelegies up and continue to work under persona of
invoking user (so it can create files, owned by this user and, more
important, cannot read/write files inaccessible to this user), while
still have rights to access port.

ATAPI CD-ROM #2G: /dev/hddSecondary slave
__Some notes, first:__
* I don't remember enough about DriveSpace to be sure
the above is accurate. Off-hand, I also don't know
of any way for Linux to read DS3'd data, so those
documents may be inaccessible to Linux.
* The above device numbers assume that all of your
partitions are primary -- none logical in extended
partitions.
* 'fd' means floppy disk; 'fd0' means floppy disk #0,
where 0 = first.
* 'hd' means (IDE/EIDE/UDMA) (hard) disk.
'hda' is primary master, 'hdb' is primary slave, etc.
These refer to the WHOLE DISKS.
'hda1' means 1st primary partition on primary master.
'hda5', if it existed, would mean 1st *logical*
partition on the same drive.
* Traditionally, installs create symlinks for the CD
drives, e.g. /dev/cdrom.
__About installing RH6:__
RH6 does not support UMSDOS, I believe. That would
allow one to install directly into a DOS directory.
Linux does not use 'drive letters'; it uses both
'device files' to represent the device, and 'mount
points'. Hence, you don't install Linux on E:;
you can remove the partition (or possibly just
alter its type), have a partition of the apropos
size and install there.
Or, more precisely, *at least two*; last I checked,
RH would not install without at least one swap
partition.
Rather than further duplicate the effort of others,
I'll point you to their work:
* Check RH's own site. They have an installation
manual online, y'know. *READ IT*.
* Check the HOWTOs and Linux Documentation Project
files. You can find 'em at
http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs
__Add'nl notes__
Yes, it's possible to install Linux on your
hardware, without removing any non-empty partitio

Thanks for the tip! I didn't know that and our local "Wizard" didn't

switch, but I haven't found it in any windows releases.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi
Most FAQs and newsgroup postings regarding LS120 Superdisks refer to not
being able to mount LS120 disks under Linux. I have a strange problem
(well, it seems strange to me, anyway).
I have an LS120 Superdisk installed and on bootup is recognised as
/dev/hdb. So far so good!
I ahve an entry in /etc/fstab on the lines of:
/dev/hdb/mnt/LS120msdosnoauto1 2
When I issue a mount command, the drive mounts OK, but ONLY if there is
a 1.44Mb Floppy disk in the drive.
If I put a 120Mb Superdisk in, i get the message "mount:
/dev/hdb cant read superblock"
Can anybody help me sort this one out - its probably very simple, but
I cant find any documentation for it.
By the way, the disk works fine when I tried it under Windoze98 on the
machine that has that particular virus installed, so its not LS120
hardware related.
As I said somewhere, the system is RedHat 5.2, with the latest kernel
installed (v2.2.6).
Thanks in advance
