Ciao Ferdinando alle 17:48, domenica 26 maggio 2002, hai scritto: cut Cerca di fare lo stesso test anche sotto win e controlla se non vede le stesse locazioni. Ci sto' provando. Sempre per quanto riguarda win, c'è da considerare che è lo stesso sistema che si incarica di gestire tutta la memoria, e quindi, probabilmente, è il sistema che è in grado di riconoscere e saltare le parti difettose. Uhm, un punticino a favore di win? ;-) Se vuoi fare una prova più drastica, leva un banco alla volta (suppongo che tu abbia due banchi da 128 M) e vedi come si comporta il sistema. Nel fine settimana lo faccio, mi serve un amico + esperto.

The generally accepted rule-of-thumb is to have a swap size of twice your RAM. In your case, you would be better off with a swap of 256MB. In general practice, there is little to gain from having a swap of over 512MB on a standard desktop system (though it may be useful for servers and workstations). Not sure where the subject line came from, is this a piggyback thread? Certainly got my attention. Sounds like the hard drive is already partitioned and you have no qualms about wiping one, or more, of the partitions to install Linux on. Mandrakes Linux is real user freindly in this respect. The install has a GUI that lets you delete existng partitions without molesting others. If you are able to make the deletable area contiguous --- big word for the day, WOOHOO! and you allow 4Gig or more. then the install will suggest sizes for the various partitions. As a first timer, i recommend you accept the suggestions as they stand. You can always reinstall later. Leaving a Fat32 partition even if you have NTFS is also good advise as Linux reads and writes well to Fat32. NTFS can become troublesome. Ext2 WAS the main Linux partitioning filesystem of the past. But it is well dated and now is superceded by several good modern journaling filesystems. Mandrake's 'tester' has recommended on this list that he has few probs with any of them (ext3 has some iffy's) but that in his experience XFS is as close to bulletproof as it gets. This is selectable as part of the install during the partitioning phase as well. No flame war on that recommend plz. I recommend you also go for a browse through ZDNet for hardware compatability.

Now I get to try it again with somethingthat's actually USEFUL. I can't wait 'till I can build my dream system! Iceburgh69 If the dosemu package is installed, you can boot into dosemu with the command xdos from any term prompt. Assuming you have made no modifications to the /etc/dosemu.conf file, this will put you into the default freedos disk image, and you will then have access to a dos filesystem and prompt. The file dosemu.conf can be altered to give you access to your winblows 9x partition. You can do this by giving dosemu.conf the correct device name of your winblows partition. i.e.: (dosemu.conf excerpt) $_hdimage = /dev/hda1 # list of hdimages under /var/lib/dosemu # assigned in this order such as # hdimage_c hdimage_d hdimage_e # If the name begins with '/dev/', then partion # access is done instead of virtual hdimage such # as /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda1:ro for readonly # Currently mounted devices and swap are # refused. # Hdimages and devices may be mixed such as # hdimage_c /dev/hda1 /dev/hda3:ro # Note: 'wholedisk' is _not_ supported. __ You will not be able to access your winblows partition if it is mounted. However you can mount it from inside Linux AFTER you boot dosemu. I don't recommend that you do this until you gain some familiarity. Dosemu is not in and of itself a dos version. What it does is provide a compatible interface for any version of dos to run. What this means is that if you have a 98r2 installation, you will be booting dos version 7.10, if you tell dosemu where that 98 partition is. Linux ships a freedos version for you to play with, but this should not be confused with what dosemu actually is; it's only providing the mechanisms for freedos to function. Or M$ dos 7.10. One more item; if you boot into 98, you need to deactivate the GUI. You do this by editing the msdos.sys file. This is what mine looks like, yours is probably much shorter. Your BootGUI directive will be set to 1, you want it to be set to 0, like below: [Paths] WinDir=C:\USR\98R2 WinBootDir=C:\USR\98R2 HostWinBootDrv=C [Options] AutoScan=0 BootDelay=0 BootWarn=0 BootGUI=0 BootKeys=1 BootMenu=1 BootMenuDelay=2 BootMulti=1 DoubleBuffer=1 DblSpace=1 DrvSpace=0 LoadTop=1 Logo=0 ; ;The following lines are required for compatibility with other programs. ;Do not remove them (MSDOS.SYS needs to be 1024 bytes). ;xa ;xb ;xc ;xd ;xe ;xf ;xg ;xh ;xi ;xj ;xk ;xl ;xm ;xn ;xo ;xp ;xq ;xr ;xs DisableLog=0 WinVer=4.10. Your windir and winbootdir will say Windows instead of c:\usr\98r2. Don't worry about the other directives not being in your msdos.sys file; it's not unusual. Some of them are semi-undocumented; I've added many of them as I've gone along. They are supported, they just are not included in the default msdos.sys files. You should also set Logo to 0 as well.

Re: [newbie] SNF 7.2 problems.
boy I don't know if stuff has changed or what, but used to be SINGLE Network firewall mean only one lan and one external interface no wonder you have a problem with SINGLE NETWORK on MULTIpul eth interfaces... have you ever considered useing only eth0 for the inside lan as the gateway (192.168.0.1) and eth1 as the (dhcp?) outside lan? and maybe consder a complete distro custom setup as a firewall machine to get all these other ETH2, ETH3, ppp0,ppp1,ppp2, running at the same time? On Tuesday 28 May 2002 04:02 pm, you wrote: Yes. The ETH interfaces are the gateways for the respected LAN segments. I do have RIPv2 running on the network and all of the routers see the other subnets. Like I said, I can SSH into the firewall from the IP Address 192.168.150.1, do what I need to do on the firewall, but I cannot get outside the firewall. Is there a script or config file you would like me to paste so you can look at it to see if there is a config problem? I haven't made any changes to any of the script files, except the init.rc (or the rc.local, which ever is the very last script to run during bootup) which I has to add the static routes to the other networks. Now, before anyone else jumps, I did add the static routes manually BEFORE I modified the init.rc script, and I was able to access the firewall via HTTPS and SSH, but I was still not able to get out to the Internet.

[newbie] Bad floppy filecopy under KDE?
Just wondering - seems like I read this somewhere before...is there a bug in the drag 'n drop filecopy to an open floppy window under KDE with v8.2? The reason I'm asking is - I did it, from an window on /home/darklord to an open window on /mnt/floppy and I got a complete and total system wide lockup. None of the usual control alt's would work, had to power down and backup. Of course, then I went thru the time-honored I'm fsck'ed shuck 'n jive...

since i had no reply from my post yesterday about relaying mail to a

cant figure out some things. here is the scenario
[SCENARIO]
we have a Exchange server here at the office named exchange.msi.net.ph
which handles all of our mailing needs (except that it has no
reverse-lookup capabilities).
i am setting up a local mailing list on a RedHat 7.2 server (named here
as gateway) with sendmail-8.11.6-3. i have set-up Mailman with relative
success. i can send mail to the employees using the exchange server
by using the commandline mail utility. Mailman could also send
notifications even to outside accounts. what i cannot do is to have the
redhat server receive mails for [user]@gateway.msi.net.ph. i tried
sending a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with testuser set in the
/etc/aliases file as
testuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
but the mail bounces back with exchange saying that the user is not
recognized.

I haven't seen 8.0 for a few years, so if I get this wrong, please someone correct me. at any rate Spyros, you can do this one of two ways. (1) open a terinal window and use the setuptools utility. when you activate this utility it will either initialize the X gui or will run in the terminal itself. on the menu you're presented with there will be a menu item that will allow you to configure your sound card. it's a small wizard that is simple and straight forward. (2) open Mandrake Control Center, and go to the Hardware item shown on the left of the main panel, click on Hardware, then expand the sound card item in the list; you will see a sound card in the right pane as long as Mandrake picked up the card upon installation. you should also see the card listed as a sub-item in the left pane. click on the sound card in the left pane and hit the configure button in the right pane. a list of drivers will be presented to you with it defaulting to what yours should be. hit the OK button and listen for the audio clip to be played. if you here it click the yes button and you're done. if you didn't hear it and you're sure that you chose the correct driver for your card turn up the volume on your speakers and repeat the last procedure.

I've tried both with the aRts server on and off. XMMS works thru either aRts or OSS emulation, but not the 3d stuff. Lighter weight games such as tuxpuck work fine (with sound). Any ideas?

[newbie] plz help - 8.2 and wine install problem
When I try installing wine from an rpm, I get the following error: installing binary packages file /usr/bin/expand from install of wine-cvs-unstripped-052802-1 conflicts with file from package textutils-2.0.17-7mdk. As a result, wine will not install. I am running Mandrake 8.2 download edition and the rpm that I downloaded was the right one for Mandrake. Any help with this problem would be appreciated.

Re: [newbie] accesss shareing
I quess this is what it should do but most everthing else ask for root but konsole,choose root console and does nothing ,logout and login as root screen turn,s red then warning about this is a bad ideal.I stop and got out there to unsure. - Original Message - From: Brian Parish [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: newbie [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 8:08 PM Subject: Re: [newbie] accesss shareing On Wed, 2002-05-29 at 15:02, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank,s Brain,I made the changes still no contection I haven,t got much time in with linux GREEN-GREEN and you lost me on checking with the /ect/resolv.config didn,t understand were to do it. From a console, type: cat /etc/resolv.conf This will show you what's in there (maybe not much). If you need to add the nameservers manually, try: su password for root kwrite /etc/resolv.conf or use another editor of your choice. Come back if it's still not clear.

Re: [newbie] Mandrake PPC question
From a reliable source: On Tue, 2002-05-28 at 15:15, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all, I'm considering either Mandrake 8.2 or YDL 2.2, and am hoping someone here can help with some questions. On YDL's web site, they suggest placing Linux and Mac OS 9 on separate disks, and making the drive with YDL the master on the IDE bus. Is this also recommended for Mandrake? This is no longer a requirement for either Yellow Dog or Mandrake. Also, although I can access the Mac drives from Linux, is the reverse true? If I'm booted in OS 9, can I access the Linux partition(s)? I don't believe mac os can see GNU/Linux partitions, and GNU/Linux can view HFS partitions and HFS+ partition support I believe is still experimental.
