Quando tu installi il SO alla fine della configurazione ti chiede se vuoi installare una stampante, la quale di solito sulla macchina a cui e' collegata fisicamente viene gestita tramite CUPS!!!

Con bsd penso che faccia una ridirezione della richiesta di stampa da parte di un utente non linux che non puo' interagire direttamente con i CUPS!! Infatti se ci fai caso avviando i client linux invece non devi settare niente perche' usado tutti e due questi demoni le stampanti vengono condivise automaticamente senza settaggi Magari ho detto una cosa atrocemente blasfema ma come tutti i patacchini alle prime armi come si dice: ".nessuno nasce imparato!!!

[newbie-it] ?!? TRattasi di SOPRAVVIVENZA!!! - Nikon 775
Ciao a tutti! Eccovi i problemi della settimana... Visto che in fase di avvio Linux mi dava due errori nel montaggio del dispositivo USB (non trovava nulla nel percorso /proc/bus/usb, e infatti non c'era nulla, ma vorrei tanto sapere chi ha ripulito il contenuto di quella cartella!) ho reistallato tutto. Adesso mi trovo con i seguenti problemi: 1) per montare la macchina fotografica ho bisogno dei seguenti moduli (che prima avevo ed adesso non ho piu', ohibo'! :-( ) usbcore.o uhci.o usb-storage.o scsi_mod.o sd_mod.o fat.o vfat.o Dove li trovo? In lib/modules non ci sono, se li devo installare, in che pacchetto sono? Il pacchetto e' un rpm, vero? 2) per montere la macchina fotografica ho bisogno di un device SCSI tipo sda1, ma nella directory \dev non c'e'. Come lo creo? Oppure se lo creano i moduli di cui sopra una volta installati? (visto ceh prima, quando avevo i moduli, c'era anche il device) 3) quando installo alcuni programmi, mettiamo da un semplice rpm, essi si creano una cartella e dei file eseguibili. Ora, per lanciare il programma, lancio l'eseguibile... ma non succede nulla. Questo e' un po' lo stesso discorso che vi avevo chiesto la settimana scorsa, e che avevo risolto solo in parte digitando ./nome del programma, pero' cosi' mi parte la versione da terminale del programma in questione, e non quella grafica... 4) ho un disco fisso con partizione nascosta, come la rendo visibile? -- A presto, Arwan mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

It certainly looks like you are on the right track. Do you have an entry for a swap partition in your /etc/fstab? It should look something like this /dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 You can use diskdrake to create a swap partition without having to reinstall BTW: Unless you like getting disc corruptions avoid switching off the machine.

RE: [newbie] domain registration
Title: RE: [newbie] domain registration You will have to register a domain name.

Re: [newbie] Can´t install on Dell XPS 180n
I have been using Linux for about 6 months, so I have some knowledge about how things work. Although I do not consider myself as an expert user. The answer is yes, I did the floppy using rawrite.exe. I know that both the CD:s (1 and 2) and the floppy work because I did an install last week on an Athlon box that I have, without any problems. Ok, some info about this machine: -Dell XPS 180n, a Pentium Pro machine at 180Mhz with 98 MB RAM. -Matrox Mystique 220 4 MB RAMDAC -Creative SB32 -HD(1) IDE IBM-DAQA-33240 (Master) -HD (2) IDE WDC-AC31600H That makes a total diskspace of about 4.5 GB. Both harddrives are clean, nothing on them. I had win98 working great, but decided to remove it, making space for Mandrake. The filesystem on both are FAT32 right now after format. I flashed the motherboard with the latest driver, while I had win98 and it worked great. No problems there. My idea is to make this a Linux box only, so all the space is going to Linux. I have been removing hardware to see if the install would kick in, but no result there. I got no clue about what is wrong.

[newbie] two MDK 8.0 systems on the same disc
Friday 01 March 2002 -- 09:54 hrs CST the question of the day, If I install two instances of MDK 8.0, which contain identical kernels, passwords and user names...when I mount the portions of the other, to the one running, will I encounter an adverse interaction? The reason for this project: This nine bay tower and LCD monitor is mounted in a truck, I use it for navigation and communication E-mail...sometimes I am on the road without my bag of trics/discs I have an extra 2G Dos partition that I have never realized a requirement for as once planned.I thought if I stripped down a MDK 8.0 system, reformatted to fs2, and installed it there, in one root partition,...I would have a self contained ,bootable repair system , to use in case I botched something on my main system, and rendered it unworkable? I am using Reiser so I need to use the same kernel, my concern is...Would the repair system read the config files etc. from mounted sections of the main system and become confused? I know the operative system reads every partition mounted when you run trics like df -m ...it will give the specifics of the other dormant system on the disc. so it has acess to them all. I also wanted to use the same passwords and user names so the permissions would match on both systems, and avoid confusion on my keyboard inputsbut I cannot determine if these identical genetics would create an atmosphere conductive of a system destroying incestuous relationship. I am not trying to back up my main system...I am trying to make a back up system. ...that is bootable, can send mail, has VI and MC etc , one that I can use both to repair my main MDK 8.0 and to operate ..on those occasions when my crash axe sys admin procedures render the main system defunct... or..does this qualify as just another olly harebrained idea? -- Olly P.

[newbie] Mandrake wish: multi-media keyboard keys
Hi, is there an easy way to get the keys on multi-media keyboards to work For example sleep buttons, volume dials, application launch buttons, and cd controls The programs that I have seen for this have been very poor and difficult to set up Linux would be particularly well suited for taking advantage of these buttons I remember when I first installed Mandrake on my old Hewlett Packard I was so excited to get real customizable functionality out of those buttons, only to find that they didn't work at all This is an official request/wish: It would be wonderful Mandrake could figure out an *easy* way to set up these buttons and customize them Perhaps similarly to the way that mousedrake let's you test your mouse buttons Press one button, give it an arbitary name and it let's you customize it Would you like to customize another key? Press which key/button you would like to customize and assign a value to it It's almost impossible to find keyboards without these buttons anyway nowadays I was looking at a pretty black IBM (since they are supposedly Linux friendly) keyboard, the Rapid Access keyboard, the only black one they have in stores in my area And to get buttons working on even that one would mean downloading a kernel patch some user wrote and recompiling the kernel Ok, i know whaat I'm asking is probably not as easy as it sounds, but it's those sorts of touches that really go a long way Thank you - Paul Rodriguez _ Do You Yahoo!?

[newbie] Kernel Decision - Which one?
Thanks to everyone that pointed me towards the list archive search page. That proved very helpful and I am sure it will be of more help in the future. I notice that there are already newer kernels than the one I was going to update to (2.4.8.34). I am mainly looking for one with security updates to the one that came with my 8.1 powerpack. That appears to be 2.4.8.34, but I am reading that newer kernels may fix problems that I may not be aware of (virtual memory, faster, supermount(?), etc.). Are any kernels newer than 2.4.8.34 just as stable as it is? Differences? With the search page I was not able to find a message that compared the various versions starting with (Mandrake-recommended?) 2.4.8.34. Also where can I download this kernel version, and is it safer (iow which way is my file going to arrive without corruption?) to download with browser (konq, or ???), ftp program (???) or with gnome transfer manager? I would like to bring my system in line with the various updates available through software manager/mandrake update believe I am ready to take the first step (which seems the most daunting but should truly be the first step?): installing a newer kernel alongside my current one. Then I can install the nVidia kernel/glx. It seems there is already a version made for 2.4.8.34 which gives a point to that kernel but I believe I know how to do the make thing on the raw files if need arises.

[newbie] HDD Upgrade Question
Hi I want to upgrade my old 1.2gig HDD to a new 20gig HDD. I will be doing a fresh install of mandrake on the new HDD. The new HDD will have a / and /home mount points. The question is: If I have my old HDD as a slave to copy file onto the new HDD which also has a / and /home will this work. Im thinking that linux will probably complain having two /home mount points? Im asking because I want to copy files from my old /home into my new /home on my new disk. I have no means of backing up my old HDD onto different media. The old 1.2gig once the files have been copied will be put into another PC. Also another quick question, what percentage of 20gig would be a good idea to allocate / and /home? Thanks Mark Evans Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Proxy Server
I have been reading a lot about setting up Linux to be a proxy server for broadband service to a network of computers I am trying to set up an home network system What I am wondering is: what is the minimum hardware requirement to run a Linux proxy server?

Re: [newbie] Kernel Decision - Which one?
There is some lack of understanding on my part about whether or not I am downloading the correct kernel I understand that the enterprise is for multiple cpu's (I only have one 650mHz Athlon) so I don't want that one There is also a _third_ kernel there, it is smp What is that one for, do I need it also along with the file I am downloading? Lastly (for now GRIN) there is a headers file which seemed to small to be the kernel (12 meg) but is it also something I might need? This is more confusing than I thought I'm honestly not sure what the enterprise kernel is all about, but it's safe to say that's not the one you're looking for The smp (Symmetric MultiProcessor) kernel is for motherboards with two processors It's really not too tough, though, just scary at first Read through the link I sent you ( http://wwwmandrakesecurenet/en/docs/magicphp ) once before going through with anything The files you are going to want are the kernel, kernel-source, kernel-headers, and kernel-doc Also lm_utils and lm_utils-devel You should be fine, don't worry about it - Paul Rodriguez _ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [newbie] Kernel Decision - Which one?
I notice that there are already newer kernels than the one I was going to update to (24834) I am mainly looking for one with security updates to the one that came with my 81 powerpack That appears to be 24834, but I am reading that newer kernels may fix problems that I may not be aware of (virtual memory, faster, supermount(?), etc) The current cooker kernel 2417-19 seems pretty stable I am running it on my test machine now Supermount works fine, and the VM manager makes it noticeably faster However with 82 seemingly only weeks away Maybe you might like to wait until it all gets finalised In the meantime 248-34 is perfectly functional, and has the security fixes Also where can I download this kernel version, and is it safer (iow which way is my file going to arrive without corruption?) to download with browser (konq, or ???), ftp program (???) or with gnome transfer manager? Use wwwrpmfindnet to locate any cooker package or standard package For downloading individual RPM's I find konqueror perfectly adequate For downloading complete ISO's you really need a proper download application with a resume facility gFTP works best for me I would like to bring my system in line with the various updates available through software manager/mandrake update believe I am ready to take the first step (which seems the most daunting but should truly be the first step?): installing a newer kernel alongside my current one Just follow the instructions on the Mandrake upgrade site and you will be fine Then I can install the nVidia kernel/glx It seems there is already a version made for 24834 which gives a point to that kernel but I believe I know how to do the make thing on the raw files if need arises You do not need to upgrade the NVIDIA-GLX rpm since that is not release dependent Just get the NVIDIA-kernel file from wwwmandrakeuserorg download section HTH derek Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] mandrake 7.0
I've run the 7.0 486 optimized version on a P90 (packard hell) and it worked just fine. The only item built in was a 1M CL video card. So, the answer is probably, depending on what hardware you have plugged into your Olivetti. If your hardware is pretty standard stuff I'd say give it a try, if you have non-ide drives you might want to use another distro for easier setup. If you have the 486 optimized version I think you should use that one instead of the Pentium version--in my experience it works better with the sloow Pentiums. It'll be a learning experience because you're going to have to do a lot of work setting up your hardware. BTW, I have a working P75 with the 486-7.0 sitting in my garage, so it works on even slower machines. e.

Re: [newbie] resizing partitions
Yes, you can resize the SWAP partition using DiskDrake, ofcourse you must be root to do that. Just load the DiskDrake, click on the (green) swap partition and then on the left-hand side of the DiskDrake the option 'resize' (or similar) will appear. click on it and it will give you a 'drag bar' (or you can enter the number) that will allow you to choose how much space you need to have allocated for your swap partition. It doesn't damage your system since you have plenty of RAM memory. I have reduced mine to 100mb swap (from 200) with 128 MB RAM. Works perfect. However, the free space will probably be left in between your new swap and your (i am assuming you have it setup like this) /home partition. You might wanna mount that free space in between to a new /directory. Hope that helps, Zlatko Savic --- Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. - Antoine de Saint Exupery Dennis Myers [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Friday 01 March 2002 21:00, you wrote: On Friday 01 March 2002 01:53 pm, you wrote: How do I resize partitions on an existing install?

[newbie] Upgrading Mandrake 8.1 to XFree86-4.2.0 on a Dell i8100
Hi, I have Mandrake 81 on a Dell i8100 with an ATI Radeon video card It is currently running XFree86-410 and only has very generic support for the card Apparently there is a better driver in XFree86-420 Am I on the right track? I have been fining quite a few of the files that are needed however each time I find one there are more dependencies I am happy to keep finding more eg: libtinfoso5 - but what about the programs such as libXvso1 that are needed by other programs on the system? Has anyone upgraded Mandrake 81 to XFree86-420? Can it be done? Should I upgrade to a whole new Mandrake beta? Am I using the right commands here? (See output below) Looking forward to some feedback!
