[newbie-it] Rete tra Linux e Windows XP?

2002-04-08 Per discussione [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ciao a tutti,

ho installato una scheda di rete in entrambi i miei pc. Se uso Windows
tutto è ok, ma se parto con uno in Linux, riesco solo a fare il ping ma
non riesco a vedere l'altro pc.
Premettendo che sono molto alle prime armi con Linux, vi chiedo: cosa
dimentico? Ho messo l'ip che uso anche in windows, ho messo lo stesso
gruppo di lavoro... Occorre installare un protocollo o servizio di rete
per rendere compatibile Windows e Linux in rete? Se si come?
Grazie di nuovo, amici miei...
Roberto

[newbie-it] Problemi con kde 3.0

2002-04-08 Per discussione [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ciao a tutti,

ho installato da shell KDE 3.0. A parte il fatto che 2 o 3 pacchetti
(mi pare relativi all'ODBC) non me li installa mi dice che mancano le
dipendenze e sinceramente non so dove prendere i files mancanti
(aiuto)...
A parte questo...
Arriva la schermata con lo splash screen e subito dopo  che mio
appaiono le icone mi appare una finestra che mi dice che lo splash
screen ha causato un errore... Proseguo e noto che nel menu di avvio
non ho nessun programma di quelli che erano installati precedentemente,
inoltre mancano ad esempio Koffice (che da shell non mi aveva dato
errori di installazione) e tutto il resto. ho disponibile Xkill e le
shell. Ho sbagliato qualcosa?
help me please

Re: [newbie-it] Epson Stylus Scan 2000

2002-04-08 Per discussione giamgax

Anch'io non ne venivo a capo. Dopo aver provato 1 000 000 di
configurazioni della stampante ho risolto entrando nel BIOS del PC e
cambiando la configurazione della porta parallela da EPC a EPP (o
viceversa???). ora funziona sia MDK che WIN.
Ciao.

 Su quale posrta hai collegato la stampante?
 Se non erro,se le porte parallele sono riconoscite dovresti trovare uno o più file 
nella directory
 /dev del tipo lpx dove x è il numero della porta.
 Per provare se le porte funzionano scrivi in una console cat nomefile /dev/lpx, 
dove nomefile
 è un file di testo da provare a stampare. Al posto di x metti il numero della porta 
dove è
 collegata la stampante!

 Windows me le vede come LPT1 (interrupt 7 0378-037F) e LPT2 (0278-027A) e la

 Come posso verificare che le porte siano state installate bene e siano perfettamente

ho bestemmiato per 2 mesi per la stampante per il tuo stesso problema,

la soluzione:
al boot entra nel bios e modifica lo stato della porta parallela da ECP a

 non esiste la cartella /usr/etc/linux!!!
 Ho trovato qualche sorgente nella directory /usr/include/linux tuttavia sembra che

 Non mi consigliate di scaricare il kernel dal web perchè x 20 Mb dovrei restare

Re: [newbie-it] scheda audio yanaha opl3-sax sound MDK8.2

2002-04-08 Per discussione LukenShiro

Nell'Evo medio, all'ora 00:49, lunedì 8 aprile 2002, Voi, Notabile tom, 
avete dipinto:
 come faccio a far rimanere le modifiche in maniera permanente?

Credo che basti inserire quanto sta dopo modprobe nel file 
'/etc/modules' uno per riga [a sua volta questo file e' richiamato da 
/etc/rc.d/rc.modules in fase d'avvio].

 #modprobe mpu401[invio]

e' un driver di basso livello per schede midi Roland MPU-401 compatibili

 # modprobe ad1848[Invio]

driver principale per la scheda 

 # modprobe opl3sa2 io=0x370 mss_io=0x530 mpu_io=0x330 irq=5 dma=0 
 dma2=1[Invio]
 # modprobe opl3 io=0x388[Invio]

Questi caricano gli altri 2 driver specificando i precisi parametri di 
rilevazione/individuazione della scheda senza i quali la scheda non 
funziona correttamente (e' sempre necessario indicarli in caso di 
mancato auto-riconoscimento in stile Plug and Pray :P).
I parametri suddetti sono, nel tuo caso, l'indirizzo I/O principale 
della scheda, l'indirizzo I/O MSS (microsoft Sound System, mi pare ..) 
per la parte audio, l'indirizzo I/O della porta midi, l'interrupt line 
request, il primo e il secondo canale direct memory access.
Per l'irq, dai uno sguardo qua: 
http://www.computerecomputer.it/assistenza/faqpc.htm (punto 1) [anche 
se la pagina e' dedicata a winfindus da' una breve infarinatura].
Purtroppo spiegazioni tecniche su questi parametri non sono in grado di 
darle e in piu' la documentazione relativa acclusa al kernel non e' che 
sia il massimo della chiarezza. Prova casomai a fare una ricerca con 
google.

Re: [newbie-it]Kernel panic per mike

Il 28 marzo in merito a Kernel panic mike mi ha
consigliato:
se non gira
riavvia da cd
al prompt blocca la schermata (credo con [tab], ma
non uso mandrake da un pò, chi è più fresco di
installazione potrà consigliarti meglio)

potrai passare delle opzioni al boot

digita 

'rescue'

(probabilmente esisterà un'opzione safe o rescue da
passare direttamente con la pressione di un tasto
funzione F3 F4 ecc. in questo caso ti apparirà tutto
sul menù o comunque potrai sempre richiamare l'help
premendo F1 prima di ogni azione)

l'avvio in modalità rescue consiste in una
'installazione' in un disco virtuale (un ramdisk, che
risiede interamente in RAM, che non scrive nulla sul
tuo hard disk e che serve proprio per gestire alcune
situazioni particolari)

se tutto dovesse funzionare..
:)
ti apparirà una shell (minimale ma usabile)

ora dovrai impartire alcuni comandi

digita :

#fdisk /dev/hda

ti appare un prompt molto scarno, con l'indicazione
di premere m per vedere il menù delle opzioni

digita:
p

verrà stampata a video la tua tabella delle
partizioni
questo ti consente di capire dove è la tua partizione
root
(dovrebbe essere hda6..)

se così fosse,
esci da fdisk premendo il tasto 
q

ora potrai 'montare' il filesystem ...
.


Ho seguito fin qui e la mia tabella delle partizioni
si presenta così:

Un modo abbastanza automatico ci sarebbe:
devi usare il programma di mandrake per l'installazione dei pacchetti.
Qui devi aggiungere una nuova fonte specificando il percorso dove hai i
pacchetti di kde3.
Dopo fai una ricerca con kde e seleziona per installarli solo i
pacchetti dalla versione 3.0. Così dovrebbe fare l'aggiornamento
automatico e l'installazione dei pacchetti per soddisfare le dipendenze.

Re: [newbie-it] Aggiornamento KDE da 2.2.2 a 3.0

2002-04-08 Per discussione Daniele

gli SRPMS sono (se la memoria non mi inganna) gli rpm con i sorgenti, quindi
se non vuoi modificare i programmi utilizzando il codice, puoi ignorare i
srpms

 Un modo abbastanza automatico ci sarebbe:
 devi usare il programma di mandrake per l'installazione dei pacchetti.
 Qui devi aggiungere una nuova fonte specificando il percorso dove hai i
 pacchetti di kde3.
 Dopo fai una ricerca con kde e seleziona per installarli solo i
 pacchetti dalla versione 3.0. Così dovrebbe fare l'aggiornamento
 automatico e l'installazione dei pacchetti per soddisfare le dipendenze.

Re: [newbie] Problems loading modules

I upgraded from Mandrake 8.0 to 8.2, which might explain some problems
I've been having (since I didn't do a clean install). First of all, I
recently got a NIC that is supposed to be able to run under Linux. It
can use the 8139too module or the rtl8139 module which I downloaded and
compiled (after some hassles with the version.h include file). However,
neither of these modules will load with insmod because of unresolved
symbol errors.

I also have onboard sound, which works under the OSS drivers but not
very well, so I wanted to install the ALSA driver for it
(snd-card-via686a). Even though I used the ALSA drivers source provided
with Mandrake 8.2, I get unresolved symbol errors on that as well.

From google groups searches and some advice from a friend, I thought
turning off version checking in the kernel and recompiling would fix
this. However, I get errors during make modules! I don't understand why
I get errors compiling the source code that Mandrake provided.

Any thoughts?

8139too is compiled into the kernel as a module--you should not have 
needed it at all...  

I would say save your data and do a fresh install, then

chkconfig --del alsa

and edit /etc/modules.conf

to plug in the OSS driver for your sound card.  (Look in 
/lib/modules/(kernelnumber)/kernel/drivers/sound)  

and

alias sound (modulename without the .o)

is usually sufficient.

 I think this is probably true for most users who work exclusively in one
 European language. But for those of us whose work requires dealing with
 multi-language texts, unfortunately, OpenOffice (along with the Linux
 platform as a whole, along with its apps) is still in the Dark Ages
 compared to the international language support MS began to offer with
 Win/Office2000. Trying to run Mandrake with either Gnome or KDE and do
 Asian language input and display an array of international fonts in any
 kind of application (except for Mozilla) is still a hopeless enterprise,
 and I never see improvements in version upgrades.

Probably we don't use the same Mandrake 8.2 ???

As for my experience, I do see improvements in every version.
Ex: 8.0: install in Japanese didn't work without setting a memory parameter
at boot time - I gave up.
8.1: installed fine, but the menus were all garbage characters, and kinput
was not installed by the japanese installer and had to be added afterwards.
- I managed to get it work well, thanks to Pablo and a few other persons.
8.2: Apparently works out of the box. The menus are well displayed.
I didn't try to write Japanese yet, but as I reported the kinput issue in 8.1,
I guess it should be fixed.
Since I am at it, there is a bug at logout. The small window asking
reboot / shutdown / ???  displays garbage.

I have been able to use Mandrake in Japanese since 8.1, and I write most
of my mail in Japanese with kmail.

By the way, I don't do any special settings to do that. Every time, I save my
data on a CDROM, and I perform a clean install, just to verify that it works
out of the box. Basically, I don't even follow the installer instructions.
I press enter everywhere except for installation language selection and
area / network setup. In 8.1. there were further settings to get menus
working, but for 8.2, Pablo  co made a great job. No extra settings.

RE: [newbie] KDE3.0 a BIG disappointment.

Thanks guys,

I got the fix's from the Texstar site and am now a happy little vegemite.

Now,

assuming it runs OK for a while and I'm game (or silly), given that I don't
have much disk space, how do I get rid of KDE 2 (or is this not a good idea
yet)?

The only problem I had was that I couldn't install the KDevelop rpm because
of a conflict with /opt/kde3/bin/extractrc conflicting with a file from
kdesdk3-3.0-1mdk?

Any ideas on this one.

If I can fix this, and get the laptop to suspend properly every time I close
the lid (instead of every second time) I'd be wrapped.

Thanks again.

Here is a quick fix to stop kwizard/kpersonalizer from running each time

/opt/kde3/bin/startkde

Comment out lines :117 -131.

Option #2: Open up with a text editor the kpersonalizerrc file in your
home .kde3 or .kde /share/config directory and put the following two
lines in:

[General]
FirstLogin=false

On my system Option #1 worked best. It seems each time I would log out
with option #2, the information gets removed.

Alternately, you can go to this page where Tex has detailed the fixes he
applied to several KDE packages that he recompiled and has made
available:

http://pclinuxonline.com/modules.php?name=Newsfile=articlesid=1801mode=o

He has packages here that fix both the KWizard and Arts sound issues.

It installs and runs separately.  It is KDE3 on the kdm selection and

on Xtart from console.

You need about 90 Mb space in / or /opt and if you do not have a
separate /opt and / doesn't have that much room, then do this:

1. Open a terminal
2. su to root
3.

mkdir -p /usr/opt
ln -s /usr/opt /opt
exit

before you install.

It seems to run well as security level 2 and to have problems at 3 or
higher.  Some of the new open sockets do not appear to get the right

2002-04-08 Per discussione Jose M. Sanchez


Well it's neither a problem with 8.2 or PAN.

I've upgraded one box and did a clean install on another and both work
fine.

You might want to try removing the respective PAN configuration files
from the .gnome directory and then set things up again.

Also try deleting the contents of the PAN data directories where it
saves the indexes and downloaded headers.

I assume you are downloading Binaries with complete icons right?

[newbie] PCI-SCSI (dtc) Card for scanner install.

2002-04-08 Per discussione Malcolm Candlish

Sirs,

After an otherwise successful installation of Mandrake 8.2, on a Cerleron 500 
with 96 meg RAM, I tried to install my (DTC) Domex Technology Corporation 
scsi card to drive my Trust Connect 19200 scanner. The initial installation 
failed with the following message:-

PCI: device 134a 0001 is DTC Technology Corp. | Domex536 (dtc)
have to insmod dtc
needs dtc
init_module: dtc: No such device
failed
Warning, insmod failed (dtc(nul)) (1)
unsetting automatic 

I have tryed under Hard Drake to install without success. When I try xsane  I 
get the message :-

No devices available.

Previously I have used this scanner plus scsi card with Red Hat 7.1 
implimenting insmod with a driver dmx3191d.o and it worked well.

Do I insmod  dmx3191d.o in Mandrake 8.2 or will this mess up the operating 
system. Alternatively, are there other ways of getting it to work.

Thank you for reading.
Malcolm Candlish.

Actually, the site has a valid point.  Dial-Up Lists or DULs are used by 
a lot of servers to _reject_ email.  This means that if you are on a 
dial-up or more improtantly, your IP is on their record as belonging to 
a dial-up block, your mail is kicked and neither received nor relayed. 
 DUL as the acronym is also a good description of the mentality to think 
of such an action.  Most spammers are rapacious businessmen, or con men 
or attorneys (don't forget attorneys _invented_ spam), and they are 
unlikely to set up a dial-up with postfix running so they can transmit 
spam traceably from their own computers...  Instead they will use AOL 
free trial hours or freemail services.  So the DUL is a blot on email 
and little more, value as anti-spam is infinitesimal.

And in the same was that anti-virus people hype their products to sell 
to gullible users of linux as well as windows, anti-spam people hype 
second-rate products that work more like a blackboard eraser, nuking 
your email rather than surgically striking at it.

And it is on-topic for this and every other mailing list.  Most 
anti-spam is trash.

 src  means it's not compiled. it's the source. if you install
a src RPM, then you have to cd into it's directory and compile it.
anyway, if this is the case, i suggest downloading a tar.gz for source.
i think it's less confising that way.

i remember compiling cdrtools a while ago.. you probably won't find any

Try configuring the interface by hand using iwconfig in a root terminal. Use 
man iwconfig to find the parameters. As a minimum you should need to set the 
wireless mode, and the encryption key. You will know if it works when you 
will see signal strength displayed by iwconfig. You can then put that command 
at the end of your /etc/rc.local file to be executed on boot.

So for example my wireless card is configured by the command

iwconfig eth0  essid any  mode Managed  key s:my_key

Naturally the parameters you choose (especially the encryption key) need to 
be compatible with the rest of your wireless network.

 I hope that makes sense.

 It seems not to work, where in Netscape mail it does?

 Start with a formatted floppy and CD1 in their respective drives and a

 dd if=/mnt/cdrom/images/memtest-x86.bin  of=/dev/fd0

 Remove the CD, leave in the floppy, and reboot

Hola, Civileme. Instead of memtest, I have installed memtest86, and (after a 
supasslilo) it's addded to lilo's menu, and I don't need to bother with 
diskettes failures and all that stuff.

So, my question is: are memtest and memtest86 differents solutions to the 
same problem, or, give both the same results?

Gracias

[newbie] Planning server build

2002-04-08 Per discussione Wally

Hi Folks.

Firstly, thanks to those who advised on using NetBEUI. I wasn't looking to
share the CM, just see the desktop's hard disk. Anyway, the goalposts have
shifted and my server build has commenced. I'm at the stage of putting the
hardware together and would appreciate comments on my game plan as it stands
thus far.

Partitions: The disk is 40gig and the motherboard can take 2gig of ram in
total (starting at 256meg). Is a partition split of 8/2/30
(system/swap/data) about right as a fairly future-proof proposition
(Mandrake 8.1)? Although my intention is still to work mostly at the command
line (and via webmin), this box will be fast enough to do gui and I'll
probably want to try the gui options at some point.

The main features of the eventual system are something like...

File server to windows and linux clients on LAN.
Internet gateway via cable modem.
Firewall.
Print server.
Web server.
Remote login and access to user data.

Some questions...

File service to Win clients by Samba, yes? How about to the laptop when it's
running linux? Do I mount a network drive or something?

The cable modem will be accommodated using a second LAN card in the server.
How do I get it to sort out an IP/lease with the CM company? Tell it to use
DHCP in the network/NIC setup in linuxconf? How do I set up the gateway for
the LAN? (Is it a config thing, or do I need to install a prog?)

Is there a built in firewall? If not, what's on the MD CDs that I should I
use? Can I install/config the firewall before moving the CM to the server?
Will the firewall prompt for approval when a Win prog wants to access the
net for the first time, or do I have to config each thing manually?

What's the scoop with setting up a print server? What do I have to install?

Web server is, I assume, Apache. Is the CGI back-endy stuff part of the
standard install? What do I need to be able to generate and send forms-based
email?

What ways are there to handle remote access? I'd like the data partition to
appear in Network Wossname in Windows Explorer - the more draggy-droppy, the
better. It has to be based on a user account on the server - I'm not into,
say, an FTP server that requires separate account setup. Will Samba do this
over the CM? How about doing this over a direct dial-up to my server, rather
than via the internet?

TIA!

Wally

Re: [newbie] Problems loading modules

 8139too is compiled into the kernel as a module--you should not have 
 needed it at all...  

OK, Mandrake 8.2 does not recognise my NIC, which is a Surecom
EP-320X-R. It lists it as an unkown PCI device in the control centre. A
driver (fealnx.c) was included with it on a floppy, but it seems really
old and doesn't compile at all for me. I've read that this card doesn't
work particularly well with 8139too, so I would have preferred to be
able to use the rtl8139 driver because I've read that has better
results. I just have no idea how to do this, really, because I've been
using Linux since RedHat 5.2 but I've never tried networking with
another computer before, and being in Australia I have a dialup
connection, as most people here still do (stupid 3GB/month download
caps, etc. whine whine).

Any tips about setting this up?

 
 I would say save your data and do a fresh install, then

Is this problem really likely to be from doing an upgrade? Most things
seem to be running fine, and I'm pretty much out of disk space on my
other partitions, and I don't have my cd burner working under linux
yet It's not impossible for me to back up my data but I'd rather not
have to if I can avoid it.

 
 chkconfig --del alsa
 
 and edit /etc/modules.conf
 
 to plug in the OSS driver for your sound card.  (Look in 
 /lib/modules/(kernelnumber)/kernel/drivers/sound)  
 
 and
 
 alias sound (modulename without the .o)
 

I wanted to replace the OSS driver with the ALSA driver, not the other
way around. I've done this before, and the ALSA howto is very nice... my
only problem is the unresolved symbols errors when I try to insmod the
driver module. Is there a simple way of fixing this?

Thanks for your help so far :)

 chalk it up to a bad day with a 3 year old...

 what i mean is, if i wanted to reinstall 2.2.2 or install 3 on another

Shane, on another list I found that someone advised comment out the
export PATH= BLAH BLAHfrom  /etc/profile.d/kde3.sh  This stops the KDE3 
bin from being the default.   That was a paraphrase sorta.  Anyway I 
commented the line as told and then rebooted and when lilo came up I hit the 
drop down for the list of WMs and sure enough there was KDE and KDE3.  Seems 
to have worked. Both KDEs are available. HTH

Re: [newbie] New silly Question. ;) Recommend good file manager?

2002-04-08 Per discussione Ralph Slooten

I use XWC , although it's seems to have stopped development, I still think 
it's great! It should be on cd 3 if I remember correctly.

Nautilus looks good, but if far to heavy in my opinion. That actually 
countsfor Gnome too. That's why I switched to Fluxbox. Actually, the whole 
fluxbox uses as much memory as just the panel in Gnome :-)

Re: [newbie] KDE 3.0

2002-04-08 Per discussione James Thomas

Mine works fine, I did the same thing. I am writing this in fact using 
Konqueror for KDE 3.0. If you download all your RPMs to the same directory 
(and no other rpms are in there - not sure if that part matters but it's how 
I did it), then you can just do: urpmi ./* and it will ask for Disk 1 to 
install a few RPMs when it needs it (I don't remember the exact RPM names).

KDE3.0 is pretty neat, faster than 2.2 so I've switched from Gnome to it for 
now (gotta wait for Gnome 2.0 to see if it stays better).

in 8.2 there is sfm on the install CDs--it is simple and fast..

The default one supplied with xfce also works in other environments and 
is again pretty fast.
