   I've seen numion recommended on other lists. Here's why I
 don't use it. In a test there just now it ended with 23,961 kbps
 for my 1,500 kbps connection. Which is nearly 16 times faster
 than my DSL is theoretically capable of. An impossibility!  Good
 for braggin rights tho ;)

I agree completely. There are much better tests available. That one has the 
advantage of being extremely graphical. g Accurate? Well not so much.

  It is correct, an I apologize for not mentioning that
 dslreports requires a java enabled browser.  At least it gives
 realistic results tho ;)

   Your cable results are exceptional. Cable users around here
 (RoadRunner, $39/mo.) report 600 to 900kbps.  Or about 1/2 to
 2/3's the speed I get with DSL.  They also report that's it's
 slower at night or on weekends. DSL remains constant no matter
 how many users are on line.

I do believe you are correct Tom, in all respects. I'm uncertain why the 
situation is different here than every other city I've heard about but it is.

Exceptional usability and decent customer service is why I haven't bothered to 
switch from my cable provider to anything else. Here in Edmonton the opposite 
conditions in re. the speed, reliability, and consistency of DSL vs cable 
obtains. A lot of my friends have switched from the phone company (DSL) to 
cable. This would be one example of why:

2004-07-29 12:01:40 EST: 2449 / 455

[newbie] Manual kernel upgrade - the result

2004-07-28 Thread Fajar Priyanto
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi guys,
Since I'm using dialup connection, I can't make use of urpmi to upgrade my 
kernel (or in fact, any other package :(). So, I have to do it manually.
I upgraded my mdk9.2 from 2.4.22 to 2.4.26 using Con Kolivas' patches.

After upgraded, everything seems okay. Supermount is supported, etc... But, 
ini dmesg I noticed this:
RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
invalid compressed format (err=2)6Freeing initrd memory: 343k freed
EXT2-fs warning (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_read_super: mounting ext3 filesystem 
as ext2

What is causing that? Is that normal? Does it mean that my ext3 becomes 
non-journaling FS ext2? In 2.4.22 kernel, I noticed in dmesg that linux loads 
ext3.o, which is not occurs in 2.4.26.

What do you think guys?
Thanks.

I think something is wrong.  When I was on dialup I had no problem using 
urpmi. IMHO urpmi on dialup is manually.

Hi Hoyt,
No, there's nothing wrong with urpmi. The only problem is that using dialup 
connection, it takes forever to use urpmi, in other words... I have to pay a 
huge amount of internet and phone bills at the end of the month because of 
the online time I use for urpmi to the net. :((

  The part y'all leave out is speed, so price quotes are 
sort'a useless.  256k (down)/56k (up) aDSL is available here for 
$21/month.  1.5Mb/256k aDSL is $49.  8Mb DSL (not asynchronous, 
dedicated line, no phone) is near $180/mo, but only available to 
businesses.  Several other options. Only with accounts more than 
$49/mo. is the equipment free (ie, modem and NIC).

To check your actual speed
 http://www.dslreports.com/stest

  My 1.5Mb (1500kbps) DSL  gets about 1278 kbps down, 214 kbps up 
on a good day.

Just like with dialup (56kbps), you'll never get the full 
theoretical speed.   IOW's 1278 is about right for my 1500 
connection.  And you can't divide by 8 (bits per byte) to get the 
actual KiloBytes per second.  'urpmi' displays KB's/sec and I 
generally get 155 to 160 K/s from mirrors.  I've got a newsgroup 
feed that sometimes gets me near 170KB/s, but more often in the 
165K/s range.  So a lot depens on the server to connect to, and 
the hops in between.

To put this in perspective, a good 56k dialup will yield about 
4.7 K/s. So my DSL is about 35 times faster than the best dialup, 
but for 4 times the cost.  On the plus side, aDSL has POTS (voice 
phone line) piggybacked on and I can download at 160KB/s and 
still talk on the phone.  Tho phone service is a separate charge, 
just as it is with dialup.

I get about twice those values on average. Shaw High Speed XTreme cable.

For those that don't have, haven't been able to get java working, or don't

Andre, did you download in linux? And if you did, did you hold down the shift key when you clicked on the files to download? If you didn't hold the key down you would only get the .htm or .html file and not the actual package. I would try the download again but hold down the shift key when you click on the file URL. Sorry if I am stating the already known or obvious, but on occasion I have not held the key down long enough and the .htm is all I got. Good Luck, Dennis M.

Re: [newbie] Manual

2000-09-19 Thread Anthony

If someone hasn't already sent it to you, I've put it up on my website for you
to try to download. I figure that'll be better than to email you it since most
emailers only allow up to 2 MB attachments. But if you still want it emailed, I
can do that too.

http://binaryfusion.net/power_base.ps.gz

 Does anyone have power_base-en-A4.ps.gz off  the page:
 http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/fdoc.php3
 that can email it to me?
 Whenever I try to download it, the connection drops
 down to 0 Kb/s and sits for hours.
 
 Thanks,
 Theborian

Where would you like it mailing to?  I see that you are using a yahoo

[newbie] manual install.

1999-11-27 Thread touco


i am trying xf86config to circumvent the problem i am having with the
auto
monitor install of 6.5. since 6.0 worked fine at install, i assume my
monitor is compatible. 
i perform the auto install, bypass the monitor section, go into root
with
xf86config. my question is: what path do i use to enter the new config
file? /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 or /etc/X11 do not seem to work.

ps- i have posed this question to macmillan with unsatisfactory replies.
