On Aug 12 Kurt Wall was heard saying: -In the last episode, we heard easwari say: - test - -Note the date: Thu, Jan 01, 1998. - -Kurt *** So e-mail too has its own message-in-a-bottle story which traveled the wide Internet seas for years before being found. What is a bit disappointing is the type of the message: Test!? How unromantic! Before the real message-in-a-bottle would've been a cry for help from a traveler stuck on a deserted island or a love letter from a very good looking exotic girl to her sailor lover... We, however, get these terrible Test messages. This is as boring and uninspiring as Windows OS is! And that's VERY boring. I propose to vote a rule which will oblige anybody on this list to post a story when testing their (e-mail) setup.

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to use the hdparm.conf file in eW3.1?

whatever happens, once you get it working please supply the info so I can
ammend that page
thanks.
eW3.1 uses a different rc.boot file than eD2.4, one that uses the
/etc/hdparm.conf file. Once I decided to actually READ the rc.boot script, I
found that the configuration of the hdparm.conf file is plainly given. I
guess next time I gotta read the entire script rather than just grep it
before asking the group. (The output of 'grep hdparm *' in the /etc/rc.d
directory caused my confusion. ) The relevant section:
# Setting up IDE hard drives
if [ -s /etc/hdparm.conf ]; then
# If this file is non-empty it is assumed that it contains one-line records
# per device. Each line should start with the device-name (module '/dev/')
# followed by a colon ':' and the specific hdparm-options for that device.
# E.g. to disable DMA for an older disk (or CD-ROM) you might write:
# ==snip==
# hda: -q -d 0
# ==snip==
_D=$(sed -ne 's/^\(hd[a-h]\):.*$/\1/p' /etc/hdparm.conf)
[ -n $_D ] {
echo -n Setting up IDE hard drives:
for _d in $_D; do
eval set X $(sed -ne 's/^'$_d':[ ]//p' /etc/hdparm.conf); shift
hdparm $@ /dev/$_d echo -n $_d
done
echo .
unset _d
}
unset _D
fi
The bottom line is that I created and /etc/hdparm file with hdb:X68 on its
only line and UDMA 4 is enabled upon reboot. I don't know if this is part of
the Linux Standard Base or not -- could be, I suppose.

The usb component modules report no errors, and indeed, using debugs and tracing, the video stream coming from the camera seems 100% ok. But, I'm lost chasing a paper trail trying to find why the image has gone black when image data is indeed getting thru the usb driver subsystem. I am reasonably certain the modules loaded and the paramaters, in fact everything i do is identical, working and non-working.

Re: Webcam problems
are you using mod_quickcam [qce-ga]? if so, that driver is in alpha state and not very stable. i suspect the driver. i have a quickcam express and use this driver.

Re: How can I wipe the printer jobs?
Is this a local or network printer? Is the job stuck on the queue of the print server? Have you looked at all your print queues? Maybe you used a different print queue than you think you did.

Maybe you used a different print queue than you think you did. Killing lpd (LPRng) is sometimes necessary. Ok... that takes care of things. Just noticed that /var/spool/epson was a directory, not a file silly old me. For some reason I just assumed that when I did an lpq it would list all the jobs in all the queues. Anyways I found a bunch of extra print jobs and have now killed them so the printer is now behaving once again. Thanks for the help.
