The best would be a list from a network administrator. If the request comes from a user, I resort to whois queries based upon their IP address. A more automated approach would be to extract prefixes via a BGP feed from an ISP that peers at the HIX, but the problem is getting an ISP to sponsor such a feed. -Vince

[LUAU] X problem
I am running SuSE 9.3 and I noticed that if I install something or do an program update, sometimes I lose the ability to start KDE, GNOME, etc... and I do not have any clue why (I haven't changed any display settings). Especially since the update/install is for some program that shouldn't be touching the setting for X (ie. Gnucash, DVDrip, etc..). When it happens, I can only get the xconsole login manager and GUI. I have tried restoring my original xorg.conf file, but I get the same problem. The only way I know of to resolve this is to do a re-install. Has this happened to anyone else? How did you fix this problem? What is causing it? Rodney Kanno

Re: [LUAU] X problem
Hi James, Yes X is starting and since xconsole is the only thing that runs, I have no menus and toolbars. I have tried logging in as both a regular user as well as root, both did the same thing. After a boot, the xconsole login screen comes up (in init 5) and I cannot choose which window manager I want to use at all. I should try deleting the .kde directory in any case. Thank you for your help! Rodney On Monday 16 May 2005 04:20 pm, James A.
