You won't likely find a 19" LCD panel that has a refresh rate of less
than 20ms that's affordable.  For some reason panel manufacturers
haven't gotten their sh** together with the 19" panels yet, so shoot
for a 17" panel (can be had for $200-$300) or go all out for the Dell
FP2001 which can be had for under $700 if you catch a deal.  The Dell
20.1" panel is THE panel for gamers.

I play many games on my Dell Inspiron 5150 with its 1600x1200 LCD and I 
must say I've been very impressed with the display.

The resonse times of modem LCD's has improved dramatically in the last 
year or so and there are many displays with response times under or 
around the 20ms mark..   the lower the time, the less likely you are to 
get ghosting.

Having said that, a real gaming zealot would probably still prefer a 
19-21inch CRT because they still have the edge for games.

[newbie] Ping Derek Jennings

2004-08-03 Thread Teilhard Knight
Derek, I am sure you can help me configure my wireless card under 10.0
Official. I haven't had much luck with feedback from the list, but here it
goes my original post:

&&

Hello:

I just erased Mandrake 9.2 because I could never configure access to
Internet, and installed 10.0 official trying to take advantage of its
wireless support. The machine has a SMC2402W wireless PCI card which works
fine under Windows.

To my disappointment, mandrake 10 does not recognize my card. When I try to
configure it, I am left with the manual choice. Fine, I can try to make it
work. According to my research, the right driver is the Prism54, but when I
try to select it from the list in the Mandrake Control Centre, I am asked if
I want to specify additional parameters. I do not have the slightest idea of
what the parameters mean or what to enter, so, I say: "no". then I am taken
to the beginning to choose a driver.

The end result is that I cannot install the driver, and cannot go further
than that. Your help will be appreciated.

Cordially,

Teilhard.

Charles, is your repository setup for rsync by any chance.  I was hoping to 
figure out a way to save you bandwidth, I have several machines and I am 
pretty much installing your packages on all of them.  I just used wget to 
mirror the directory down but I am not sure that will handle deletions as 
well, rsync would be pretty convenient.  Thought I would ask.

BTW, I installed Community and started having issues with Tightvnc and KDE, 
several SIGSEGV's everytime ksplash tried to come up, when I closed windows, 
etc.  I installed your Xorg packages and the problem is now gone.  If anyone 
else is having similar problems, you might want to give it a try.

It's nice actually to have a distro that is lean and mean targeted for
older computers. Can u imagine if we run it on newer computers ? but
it is optimized for newer CPUs. That's where Mandrake excels .

Yeah, I have installed MDK on older computers without any problem--I
just use the text mode install and skip KDE and Gnome; I wish there
were more options besides IceWM for a low-spec machine on install in
Mdk, like one of the boxes (flux|black|open...), or better yet pekwm
(that was just to see if Joe is paying attention ;)). Course when
Gnome 2.6 comes out in Mdk 10.1, I might install it. So far, though,
I'm lovin'  Slackware, but I have a lot more to learn.

And I say these good things about Gnome coming from a long history of
despising it; however, it's really come together nicely.

If it helps you to look for differences, I'll check back and tell you 
which ones reported a problem.

I have been having problems with receiving from the list, and with searching
for another addy.

If you posted a reply of my last post, I would appreciate if you could post
it again. It seems I am receiving now. If you would click in "reply all" I
would have a copy as a personal email, which would be cool.

Cordially,

Bingo.  Yup - now I can use it for icq and forget msn until I actually

Gaim 0.71 works well and is a lot less bug prone IMHO. Don't have any trouble 
connecting to MSN or anything else.

The GUI I feel is nowhere near as nice and user friendly is the only observation I 
make after moving from Kopete.

Hi, Lanman.  Yes, I understand that.  I would have liked to keep my 
icq going on kopete, though, but I can't get into it.  I suppose my 
choices are to uninstall, then reinstall, putting in just the icq 
part again, or to use gaim or licq until it's sorted.  Personally I 
wouldn't bother with msn anyway, but it's the only way to get a word 
in edgewise when I need to get a message to the grandchildren

But I cannot quite understand how you do it your way, with the flag -d
do I add it something like renamer.sh -n hol -d 08042003
   

You do not have to add anything after the "-d" as it calls exif to read
the date imprint left by the camera (exif header). IOW, when you take a
picture the camera includes metadata about it (date and time taken,
speed, exposure etc.) which can then be read.
You can just include the date like "-n holiday08042003" if you want, but
if you've got old pictures you might not remember when they were taken.

I see what you mean. One further question though , you see my camera 
doesn't work in mandrake, so I use a multicard smartcard reader to load 
the image files to a system directory, will it still work ?,  the bit 
about the date that is.

You do not have to add anything after the "-d" as it calls exif to read
the date imprint left by the camera (exif header). IOW, when you take a
picture the camera includes metadata about it (date and time taken,
speed, exposure etc.) which can then be read.

You can just include the date like "-n holiday08042003" if you want, but
if you've got old pictures you might not remember when they were taken.

Very many thanks Todd for your renamer script.

First let me appologise for the late reply to your message, this has 
been entirely due to other commitments that have unexpectedly diverted 
my attention and as bash scripting is a rank novice status for me I 
cannot learn these things quickly and need to give it my undivided time 
and attention.Anyway, this is as far as I have got so far,
==
Renamer Readme
==
Install renamer.sh in a directory where it can be found, eg /usr/local/bin

1) cd directory .jpg (in a terminal).

2) renamer.sh -n 

3) All image files renamed with new prefix name in place of disc

Thanks Todd,

In Europe we numerise dates in the fashion DDMMYY, or DDMM, but for 
obvious reasons we prefer to keep it short in this case. So todays date 
is 010903

Can I switch things around in your script ?
   

You sure can. Look for the lines where the pictures are renamed (they
start with "mv $image . . ." and just change the order of date variables
to $day$month$year.
Normally in the US we would write MMDD. I prefer MMDD for easily
finding and listing pictures on the computer, but of course you have the
choice of format.

Good I will do that, I'm tied up currently , wife bought new 80gig

Maybe. There were a large number of different, seemingly random, hosts
all trying port 4156. Portsentry seems to be the way to get rid of these,
and all the hosts it reported are now blocked. I just had to do a little
reading and edit the config file. 

I'm back to normal, at least for now :).

I'd download gShield and portsentry...

gShield has some excellent features, for example its really easy to
blacklist IP's on the fly...

other good stuff like that..

portsentry is good in that it does realtime blacklisting automatically.

Dfox,

Why don't you try installing Portsentry?  It modifies the netfilter
tables on the fly so you don't have to be an instant brainiac.  You can
also specify specific ip addresses for it to drop via iptables.

I would try posting this to the expert list too, there are some peeps
there who might have some more comments and suggestions.

There's no doubt that you are under attack.  I'd try portsentry first,
and then get someone to recommend an rc.firewall script for you.  I've
seen some, but the landscape is changing so very fast that it's hard to
stay up on the latest custom iptables scripts.

The experts would be a good place to ask. ;)

If your machine is reasonably current (300Mhz or faster, 128MB+ RAM),
then I would have to suspect a distributed attack via a virus or worm.
Due to the volume, I'd bet windows.  I suggest you look up a subset of

[newbie] ping flood?

2002-09-21 Thread dfox

Gretts *

I came home today to my box noticing that a large number of httpd
processes being spawned (this isn't a server, at least not really),
and for the last hours or so my box is real slow when it comes to
using the net.

I'm on a DSL line and am getting some errors connecting to sites
and such. I installed tcpdump and am getting lines like:

17:57:50.710986 210.95.36.130.4156 > m206-157.dsl.tsoft.com.4156:  udp 41 (DF)
17:57:50.711030 m206-157.dsl.tsoft.com > 210.95.36.130: icmp: m206-157.dsl.tsoft.com 
udp port 4156 unreachable [tos 0xc0] 
17:57:50.737316 158.182.6.120.4156 > m206-157.dsl.tsoft.com.4156:  udp 41 (DF)
17:57:50.737361 m206-157.dsl.tsoft.com > 158.182.6.120: icmp: m206-157.dsl.tsoft.com 
udp port 4156 unreachable [tos 0xc0] 
17:57:50.742490 

How can I fix this? If it's a "ping storm" how do I stop it? I figure
it has something to do with iptables but I'm a real newbie where this
type of thing is concerned. After looking at tcpdump for a few minutes
it is not apparent that a single site is trying to connect, but 
a large number of different sites. They all have one thing in common,
though, this port 4156.

I also noticed when looking in /var/log a couple of lines that look
specifically like breakin attempts within the last week...

Sep 16 19:17:04 m206-157 rpc.statd[1008]: gethostbyname error for ^X÷ÿ¿^X÷ÿ¿^Y÷ÿ
¿^Y÷ÿ¿^Z÷ÿ¿^Z÷ÿ¿^[÷ÿ¿^[÷ÿ¿%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%236x%n%137x%n%10x%n%192x%n

etc... that is very suspicious - that looks like an exploit.

Between 9/16 and today nothing suspicious; there is always the lone
ftp or nntp attempt but they fail and it doesn't impact performance.
But today, it's like someone is flood pinging my device - the net
lights are constantly on.

I also saw this today:

Sep 21 10:03:59 m206-157 kernel: Neighbour table overflow.

Dear Brian,

Thank you for your answer. I will gather the info you asked for within the 
next few days and send in. I know Samba cannot work right if I cannot even 
Ping. Of course the networking works fine on the vmware Win95 side.  Thank 
you for your attention on this matter.

[newbie] Ping and vmware

2002-03-12 Thread Marcia

Dear All,

I have LM8.1 with vmware2.04 running win95 as guest. I have the vmware-samba 
setup with host-only networking so that I can share the Linux files and 
directories in Network Neighborhood. That is working however I am having a 
time getting things to work on the Linux side so that I may access Windows 
files in LM8.1. I would like to use a gui such as komba2 or LinNeighborhood 
for this if possible. I do wonder if I have a firewall problem because I 
cannot successfully ping my Win95 IPaddress from Linux but I can ping from 
Win95 to Linux.  I have read all that I can but I still cannot get it to 
work. I would like to use the Vmware-smb if possible. Thanks for the help.

Re: [newbie] ping port 7?

2001-08-09 Thread Tim Holmes

I think this would block pings, but I'm sure there are other ways, much
better, to block ping request.  A firewall should handle that for you.

As far as it preventing you from pinging other machines, it won't affect
you.  If you block the port, it will not accept packets at that level,
it has nothing to do with you being able to us /bin/ping.  The only way
to really prevent that, would be to do a chmod  /bin/ping.

RE: [newbie] ping (MySQL)

2001-08-09 Thread Michael F. Aube

Hello Edmund,

I have a fresh installation of LM 8.0 running on my laptop.  I poked
around a bit to see if I could use MySQL, as it was installed with the OS.
 You should be able to see the two default databases with the following
command:

[me@mySystem /]$ mysqlshow

This should produce output that looks like:
+---+
| Databases |
+---+
| mysql |
| test  |
+---+

You can use the mysqladmin command to create new databases, and do all
kinds of other things.  I have some really good notes from a friend; let
me see if I can find them, and I will email them to you a little later... 
They may be in MS Powerpoint format, but you should be able to open that
using StarOffice on LM 8.0.

Hope this helps,

Mike

Hello all

I'm trying to take my first steps with either MySQL or PostgreSQL, and the
documentation at those websites, while great, is hard to follow from a
Mandrake perspective (it seems the files are in different places from what
those websites say is customary, and there must be some small setup
involved, because things like 'initdb' are producing error messages implying

Can someone point me to some LM-specific docs, or tell me the first few

Re: [newbie] Ping

2001-07-28 Thread Tim Holmes

Sounds like a firewall issue.  Do you have something like Norton's
Internet Security running?  It will not all echo requests so you won't
get a response from the host whe pinging that machine.

Try to telnet to the Linux box.  If you can get through, then it's most
likely an issue like that.  Allow that sort of protocol, or lower the
level of security.  Your choice there.

But if you can ping the Linux box from the Windows machine, then they
can talk, just the ICMP echo request is denied.

Your firewall is preventing access to the Ping command to get to the
internet. I don't know allot about PMFirewall so, you will have to wait for
others to respond for that info.

check your logs, do you have any firewalls or filtering running?  I can't

do some pings, then go into /var/log/messages, and see if it tells you whats

do you mean you CAN ping your win95 box from your linux box using the IP
address of the win95 box, but you *CAN'T* ping your win95 box from your
linux box using the name of the win95 box?

If this is what you mean, the problem is probably because you don't have a

the names to the ip addresses in your /etc/hosts file (linux) and your
c:/win95/system32/drives/hosts (win95) file.

2001-01-17 Thread Dan Belkie


Hey Guys!
ok I have set up a Mandrake corp 7.1 and all seems to be fine.

I have 2 network cards in the box and they booth were found.
I have one set to my DSL line. Internet works fine.. the other one I have
set to 192.168.0.100.
I can ping 192.168.0.100 from the local box.
I cant ping from another (windows) box on the same network.
Netmasks are the same.

Any ideas?

Sincerely,

Dan Belkie

You'd better try explaining it better if you expect any help that might
help.  Let's dissect it:

Subject: [newbie] Ping Error


Something is seriously wrong with our network.

A station with Win9x still believes another workstation exists, even though
the other workstation is disconnected.

BobC: What other workstation?  What was it running?  How was it configured?
Are they all configured that way?  Why are you asking this on a Linux list?

When it was connected, I was able to use the other workstation to view the
files of the workstation in question.

BobC: Which was this?  Do they each have a name and IP address?

Next, I tried to ping the workstation in question from the server,
but it wouldn't work.

BobC: Which was this one?  What does the server run?  Does it have a name
and IP address?

I tried pinging from the workstation to the server and it wouldn't work.
What's wrong?

BobC: Many possibilities.  Maybe the workstation has no IP address.

No ipchains are running. The cables are tightly connected.  Could it be the
NIC?

BobC: Sure, thats poissible... Are all the stations on the segment down?

BobC: No offense, but maybe you need to start by trying simpler things until
you learn more.  You didn't even say what the error was.  The odds are very
high this is just a troll post from the looks of it.
People at work will pay me to fix that kind of stuff, so I'd better get
going...
