[newbie-it] Printer Hp930
Ciao a tutti, come posso fare per ottenere una configurazione permanente della mia stampante Hp930c? Mi spiego. Da una finestra di terminale con la stampante accesa, al prompt di root lancio printtool il quale mi appare nella sua semplice ed intuitiva veste grafica. Seguo passo-passo tutte le varie fasi (scegliendo il driver tra i 5 disponibili in MDK 8.0) fino a raggiungere il test page. Lo eseguo e la stampante funziona perfettamente. Parallelamente però nella finestra di terminale, che ho sempre aperta in secondo piano, mi compaiono le seguenti scritte: [root@localhost /root]# printtool everything already installed Starting CUPS printing system: [OK] parport_pc: Device or resource busy rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded parport: Device or resource busy modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded Le ultime tre righe mi sembrano indicative, ma cosa stanno a significare? Preciso che riavviando la GUI sia come utente che come root di stampanti neanche l'ombra... e se voglio stampare mi devo rifare da capo. Un ringraziamento a coloro che mi risponderanno. Giovanni.

How are you seeing these files if you only get a blank screen? Are you logging in on COM1 or something? I am getting the feeling after reading around on the web that the Radeon 32mb SDR (PCI) video card is not fully supported in a IBM (clone) system running Linux, and that it is only supported in Alpha systems. Anybody have this card and know of possible solutions? I am still guessing wildly here, but if your onboard video cannot be disabled, then there is probably an entry for that device in your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file, and Mandrake may be directing output to that device instead of your Radeon. Have you tried attaching a monitor to the onboard video socket? Does anything happen when you do Ctl+Alt+F1 through to F10 ? If you can get terminal access have you tried running XFdrake to reconfigure your video settings? (Choose conservative values. They can always be changed later) derek TIA Steve Following the DRI setup/install instructions, when I attempted to run glxinfo I received a msg which read Error; unable to open display(null) I will now go look into this on DRI's web site to see what I can find out. Well at a guess it might be something to do with that onboard video chip you have. Sometimes linux tries to use the memory that is reserved for the video buffer. Try hitting Esc at the splash screen during boot and then type linux mem=247M It can do no harm and may help. Derek Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I have a problem that I cannot resolve yet In my mandrake 8.1 box I haven't experienced any problem with burning Data cd's from my HD yet...Moreover, the results of this are great!!! The time for the cd burning is very average!!! However, the problem is the following: I have a HP cd-wr 9300 and a Creative Infra 52X cd-reader. All the front-ends of cd burning do not recognize my Creative cd-reader so I can´t make on-the-fly burnings Although I tried I can't get the cd-reader detected by those front-ends (Gnomecombust, Eroaster, Gtoaster, etc, etc) Any suggestions will be very helpful to me!! Thanks in advance Nicolas Gomez Montevideo, URUGUAY ICQ# 45144976 Well Nicolas, this issue comes up every now end then here on the list, so try - (no offence ;-)) - to search the mail-archive for i.e. CD-burning or something similar. Now, the short answer is as follows : Suppose your CD-reader (Creative Infra) is the master on your second IDE-bus and your CD-burner (HP 9300) is the slave on the same IDE-bus (just examples !), then they are listed by linux as hdc and hdd respectively. That means, that so far the kernel accepts them as IDE-drives (in windows-speak something like D: and E:). Now, to use them for burning-purposes, they have to behave like SCSI-drives. Most linux-front-ends for burning does that automatically, but only for dedicated burners. That's why your front-end doesn't see your CD-reader. To correct this you have to make the kernel think that your IDE-CD-drives are SCSI-ones. This is easily accomplished : 1. open a terminal and become root (type su and, when prompted, type your root-password) 2. open a text-editor of your choice (I prefer Midnight Commander - type : mc) 3. go to /etc/lilo.conf and hit F4 to edit that file. 4. here you must make an append-statement (a boot-parameter to linux), like this : image=/boot/vmlinuz label=Linux root=/dev/hda2 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append= hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi devfs=mount vga=791 read-only where hdc is my CD-reader and hdd is my CD-burner (eventually, put in your own configuration). 5. hit F2 to save this file. 6. hit F10 to exit Midnight Commander 7. still in your terminal-window as root, type : lilo (and watch the messages). 8. type exit twice. 9. reboot, and you are done ! - (Eventually, you can now check the file /etc/fstab) Enjoy !

RE: [newbie] Blank screen instead of login screen.. possible Radeon video card problem
Sorry, I should have been a bit more descriptive.. I tried hitting the escape key when the lilo screen came up, and entering linux mem=247M but that did not work. You mean it did not boot, or it did not fix your problem? I typed in linux mem=247M at the prompt which said boot: however it did not fix my problem. I have managed to save the ddebug.log install.log and report.bug files and am wondering if there is somewhere/someone to contact in order to find out any pertinent info in any of those logs in order to debug my install? How are you seeing these files if you only get a blank screen? Are you logging in on COM1 or something? I was able to use the failsafe boot mode and eventually get to a login screen using runlevel 3, then I saved those logs to /mnt/win_c I am still guessing wildly here, but if your onboard video cannot be disabled, then there is probably an entry for that device in your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file, and Mandrake may be directing output to that device instead of your Radeon. Have you tried attaching a monitor to the onboard video socket? I am contemplating doing just that if I can find the room to have a second monitor. Now here is the weird part, after using XFdrake and 1. letting Mandrake configure both heads (video cards) and 2. choosing XFree86 4.1.0 without acceleration and 16 colors I was able to get X up and running and can use Gnome, KDE or other desktops. However I found that it is directing the output thru the onboard video adapter, but this monitor is connected to the Radeon card NOT the onboard video socket (which makes me think it was working before and so I was just not seeing the display... it was being sent to the monitor which wasn't there ;-) ) I would still like to be able to use the Radeon card even if it is without 3D acceleration - can I change which video card it is using somehow? Does anything happen when you do Ctl+Alt+F1 through to F10 ? Not before using XFdrake and was attempting to use X, I did try that also to see if I could bring up a terminal window to at least do a shutdown -r now. Instead I had to do a power down and reboot - which bites when it has to check the drive each time. At least X is up and running. Mandrake looks great compared to RH! When I get home tonite I will look into switching which video card it uses and/or bring in a second monitor and see what's happening on it.

I've got 8.0 on a 200mhz with 128 megs of ram and it runs o.k. (no speed demon, but very useable). It's pretty good with xfce and the xfce file manager, but konquerer and some of the other kde apps are slow loading. Opera is nice, but Netscape takes quite a while to load, so my recommendation with a slower machine and the 8.x distros is go toward minimalistic and it will o.k. Eye candy has a price. Remember it's not the distro as such that sets the speed of the system, it's the kernel and, more importantly, what you're trying to get the kernel to handle. Newer versions of software packages may run faster or slower, depending what the developers are up to: generally developers try to get their programs to work faster, but on the other hand, they also put in new features, which frequently slow them down, and sometimes assume that users have fast processors and tons of RAM. If speed is an issue, as Erylon said, cut down on the eye candy: use IceWM or Blackbox as your window manager rather than KDE or GNOME, use Mozilla instead of Netscape and only use Star Office if you have time on your hands. It's also worth checking what services you're using, as it's very easy during installation to install and run daemons you don't really need, or don't need to have running all the time. If you prefer an older distribution, RH 6.0 and Mandrake 7.2 are both good (use RedHat if your CPU is older than a Pentium I), but unless your machine is a real antique, I'd wait for Mandrake 8.2.

This driver is already on your Mandrake 8.1 installation.
Look in /lib/modules/2.4.8-xx.mdk/pcmcia
and /lib/modules/2.4.80xx.mdk/kernel/drivers/net/8380.o.gz
You do not need to compile anything.
Are you sure it is not already being autodetected? Mandrake is quite good at
installing these things at boot time.
Type dmesg in a terminal to see the boot sequence messages. Look for messages

[newbie] Another Wine Question
I have Wine (CodeWeaver's) set up and it runs most of my Windows apps OK, the one problem is Quicken 99. The application opens OK and I can open any of my Quicken files, however, if I select anything from the account list the program crashes with an error message from Dr. Watson: Fatal error. Could not attach to the application. WinNT error code = 5. Also, WinNT 4.0 does not appear in the Wine configuration list; is there a reason for this? I'm running Mandrake 8.1. Any help in solving this problem would be appreciated. Rich -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Easiest is to just change it to Aspell. HTH -- Dennis M. registered linux user # 180842 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Re: [newbie] LILO
A very rough (and probably poor translation) but this seems to be the gist what he is asking: I use Mandrake 7.2 and made one small partition for windows, and because of installing windows, I can't reconfigure my lilo because of the errors that are written from the windows partition. It seems that to say that the partition does not have a valid entry or boot sector. And if if Linux /dev/hda1 and of windows (or it seems to be) /dev/hda5 (or does linux mount the partition from the end of the program. I can access it normally) Or if it's lilo entry not configured correctly at boot? Please help me recover from this mess.

[newbie] DHCP client
Hi, From a brand new newbie to Mandrake. Previously used Caldera. Have a Microsoft network neighborhood at home with half dozen computers and an old Pentium 233 box running win98 and Sygate Home Network as a gateway with a cable modem. Goal to replace that gateway with a linux box eventually. But for now I am in a Linux network class and I am trying get a Mandrake Linux box to work as a client on the existing network. Configured the network card with draknet in Xwindows. Set it up with no IP or mask and the DHCP box checked. Gave it the gateway address of 192.168.0.1 where the Sygate resides. Sygate provides a DHCP server at that address. It all ends up with eth0 running but it never gets an IP address assigned to it. However, when the dhcpcd starts up it gets valid information from Sygate which appears in /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info Some how something is missing because this info never shows up in the Linux routing tableor in the info provided by ifconfig -a for eth0 and thus there in no network access. If I configurewith astatic IP address such as 192.168.0.33 I haveInternet access and can browse the web. What is missing?? Regards Paul

RE: [newbie] DHCP client
Paul, Try not giving it a gateway address. If you give it a gateway, it will assume that all the other ethernet configuration is supplied, such as the IP and subnet. But if nothing is filled in, it will take the user supplied information (nothing) over the server supplied information (correct IP, subnet, dns, etc). If you choose DHCP, do not give it any other information. The box will send out a general DHCP get request and if the Sygate server is the only server that is listening to those requests, then it will send a reply with the supplied information (IP, Subnet, Gateway, DNS, etc.).

[newbie] gateway setup - help!
Hi, I am having a really hard time setting up my network. Please help! I cannot setup my server or laptop with Mandrake Control Center (MCC) so I need to find other tools. First of all: I have a box with two NICs that I would like to use as my gateway/firewall. Both NICs work (i can connect to the internet with each of them seperately, just changing eth0 or eth1 in MCC) But how do I set up my network? I'm a complete newbie when it comes to this. I would like to set up a dhcp server for ease, but don't know what is most secure way of connecting (the network will eventually be wireless as well.) So what do I do now? I configured the gateway box in MCC to have an IP, told it that the gateway's IP was the same, and told it how to connect to the internet. I also gave it a name. But I can not use the connection sharing wizard in MCC because even though my network cards work fine, HardDrake doesn't recognize them as network cards (but as other devices). So the wizard complains that there are no network cards setup. Do I even need to use this wizard to setup my gateway? OK, step number two that I need help on: My laptop: I cannot use MCC on my laptop for internet setup because again, my Xircom cardbus modem is not detected properly in it (although agian, it works great). So how do I get it connected to my network? I can connect the adsl modem to it directly and connect. OK, quick rundown of questions for clarity: 1. Should I use DHCP or something more secure if I eventually plan to go wireless (this week). 2. Now that I have both NICs in my gateway box and they can connect to my ADSL modem, how do I set up my network? 3. How do I connect my laptop to my network? Thanks you sooo, so much for helping me out with this. It's pretty frustrating, because once i start working on it, it is hard to be on the internet at the same time. Thanks! -paul r _ Do You Yahoo!?

E também pode ver todas as partições, o Windows só pode olhar seus partições. - Paul Rodríguez On Fri, 2002-01-18 at 09:23, Anuerin G.Diaz wrote: ahh, can any fluent spanish speakers be able to translate this for the rest of the list (and translate the answer back if needed be.) i suggest that in posts like this it would be the default action. i know somebody already did that a few months back but the poster was capable of posting and understanding in english. *grin*. just a thought...

A do Linux é /dev/hda1 e a do windows é (ou deveria ser) /dev/hda5 (pois o linux monta a partição dos neste end. e eu acesso ela normalmente). Pq então o lilo não configura corretamente o boot?
