Re: Using XFCE 4... What can I turn off to make it faster
Hi James. I use XFCE 4 on a number of laptops and what has helped me most is running prelink over the install. What is prelink? Umm never mind -- http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml This is done on GENTOO, but I would assume that prelink can be found on the net somewhere and used on your Mandrake as well.

Re: printing pdf files?
I print PDF's from Acrobat Reader all the time with CUPS. There's two ways to do it. Since I also use KDE, I just substitute kprinter for the default print command string and AR pipes the postscript to kprinter, from which I have access to all of the CUPS options, printers, etc. The other way is to install the CUPS enabled lpr command. In the case of Debian Linux the package is cupsys-bsd, which provides the BSD commands for interacting with CUPS. Chiefly, it includes 'lpr', 'lpc', 'lpq', 'lprm' along with some libraries documentation. With this version of lpr installed, your print command would be the usual 'lpr -P printer_name' along with any options you prefer.

NFS responding on wrong interface
I'm having a wierd problem at one of our customer's sites. The system has multiple IP addresses bound to one NIC, eth0 and eth0:[0-3]. NFS clients can't mount NFS directories because the UDP replies are coming from addresses other than eth0. I've looked at the source for mountd.c, and there's no option to bind to a specific interface (the man pages don't have one so I went to the source to make sure that there's not an undocumented option). The system in question is running Caldera eDesktop 2.4, but I've looked at the source on SuSE 8.2 Professional and the code is largely the same. It seems to me that the return packet should show as coming from the primary interface on that network.

Re: NFS responding on wrong interface
Greets Bill, --- Bill Campbell [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm having a wierd problem at one of our customer's sites. The system has multiple IP addresses bound to one NIC, eth0 and eth0:[0-3]. NFS clients can't mount NFS directories because the UDP replies are coming from addresses other than eth0. I've looked at the source for mountd.c, and there's no option to bind to a specific interface (the man pages don't have one so I went to the source to make sure that there's not an undocumented option). The system in question is running Caldera eDesktop 2.4, but I've looked at the source on SuSE 8.2 Professional and the code is largely the same. It seems to me that the return packet should show as coming from the primary interface on that network. The only thing I see that looks a little strange is that ``netstat -rn'' shows two routes to the internal network, both on eth0: # netstat -rn Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.168.254.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.254.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.254.8 0.0.0.0 UG0 0 0 eth0 Any ideas? Bill I know I'm really late with this reply, but if you are still trouble shooting, I do have a few ideas, but you'll probably laugh at me for mentioning them, since I am still a newbie. I noticed you've got your multiple ip's in the 192.168.254.X range for eth0. Can I ask if maybe the other clients moved very recently to differnet network subnets? The only other things I can think of that you probably already checked ; the /etc/export file had been modified with wrong ip address or computer names to the proper shared directories, and of course, white space; the mount volumes had been unmounted for fsck maintainence, with the clients still on the mount; maybe someone modified the /etc/hosts.allow file, on either the server or the client, without remembering to tell anyone, for reasons of security. A DENY ALL statement maybe somewhere? I'm sorry Bill, but that's all I can really think of. That's all this newbie can think of... __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

NFS clients can't mount NFS directories because the UDP replies are coming from addresses other than eth0. Would this be what is known as a multi-homed host?

Re: pcmcia on Suse 8.0
Lonnie Pardon my senior moment. Yes, like I said cardctl has found my pcmcia card and all that seems to work, when I remove the pcmcia car the line led go down and when I replug it in the lights on the dongle light up as they did before. Now on system boot, it tells everything is ok and the final config will be started on hotplug, dialup. I just performed a dmesg, I think Ie found it, I did see this when I did the lmod, but it looked proper as yenta-socket was there, seems axnet_cs is being used instead of pcnet_cs. I just modprobed pcnet_cs and it did not return a error, and lsmod and the pcnet_cs axnet_cs were there. I think when I find where the axnet_cs is load, hope it not in the kernel, I may have a fix. Correct me if I am wrong, but is it ifconfig eth(0)or(-pcmcia) inet 19x.x.x.x etc used to setup a net. My network has been running a while. the laptop had a caldera system working perfectly, untill I loaded Suse. I can use to /etc/init.d/pcmcia start/stop and that returns no errors. I in search of the axnet_cs loading right now.

OT Can't believe it but its true: Visual basic can't sort
I have to learn visual basic since I need to program VBA in powerpoint at work. VBA seems like a polished product with lotsa objects to control applications. Very nice. Not too hard once you learn how to navigate the object browser and the numerous objects in powerpoint. Imagine my shock when I wanted to sort an array. THERE IS NO BUILT IN SORT FUNCTION IN VISUAL BASIC. The last time I recall having to write a sort routine I was programming in Z80 assembly language on my TRS-80. Geeezz. The odd thing is, not my visual basic book or online help bats an eye over this. They just give various shell, heap, and bubble short routines and act like nothing is wrong with this picture. MS$ is really amazing. I find this incredible. Well, back to work. I guess I'll use a bubble sort. I won't be sorting more than 50 items at a time.

Show scenes before and after the day's racing when the athletes warm up and cool down. Interview team managers and the athletes themselves. The coverage we see in North America is minimal (at least on local cable tv), but still the viewer sees the highlights of each days racing, up close enough to see the expressions on the racers faces. I've seen nothing in sport more gripping and inspiring that to watch one of the best in the Tour demoralize his opponents with an attack in the mountains, the sort of attack that Armstrong has used so well these past five tours.
