 Thanks for your reply Florian,

  Hi i got a smartmedia reader and its emulated to be a scsi device
  (actually that is on a debian machine but the difference should
  not be too big)
 
  do an lsmod as root and check if you got scsi-mod and
  usb-storage loaded if not you gotta probably add it to your
  /etc/modules (i hope for you that thats enough)

-snip-

Hi sorry for late reply.
To add a module into a kernel either type modprobe usb-storage
Or just add the module to the file /etc/modules in a new line only the name 
of the module so it will be loaded at bootup
here is my /etc/modules file it might look different than mandrakes but it 
should be ok to just add the correct line .

-snip-

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are
# to be loaded at boot time, one per line.  Comments begin with
# a #, and everything on the line after them are ignored.
ne2k-pci
bttv
#NVdriver
i2c-isa
it87
es1371
apm power_off=1
i2c-viapro
#lm78
#eeprom
usb-storage   


Actually there seems to be difference inbetween debian and mandrake here 
cause for me the module loads automatically at bootup even without having it 
in /etc/modules.
The device should be build afaik automatically if you load the module at 
bootup.
Tell me if you have no luck so ill search the docs that i used to get it to 
work. On google you find every infos you need i just dont remember with what 
search pattern i looked for it.

 read
 on Nvidia's site that I should edit the X86Config-4 file, chaning the

 from nv to nvidia, then add glx to the modules secition. I tried
  both ways and still did not see the NVidia splash screen.
 
 I'm sorta' lost now. The driver installed without error. I've tried both

 of telling X about the new driver, and now have no idea what I should do
 next.
 
 I appreciate the help and so does my wife. Any additional help is

I need to use dcc/irc and the realplayer doesnt work either

Mandrake 8.1 using kernel 2.4.13 (running great!) and kde2.2.2 on an internal 
workstation (realplay doesnt work, either because of the missing masq. 
modules or because of kde2.2.2 you tell me=))

Re: [newbie] Mandrake 8.1 and webcam

2001-12-04 Per discussione Florian Struck

Well i recently bought a Quickcam 3000 PRO from logitech without knowing 
there support behaviour =/ it is supported starting at kernel 2.4.13 .
Since it has Phillips ingredients. Phillips webcams are supported (allmost 
all AFAIK ) they use the kernel module pwc (so does my logitech ) but dont 
buy the logitech its a good cam but you will have to wait or hack better 
support for it . Example: i get the camera working fine with a small picture 
(nokia-display-size on a 1280x1024 screen res) that is because you need to 
uncompress the signal to get the resolution higher (it SHOULD support 480x600)
but to uncompress you need to compile your own kernel with the module pwcx
wich you get at  http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/ (a recommendable site )
Recommendable is to use a analog camera and a tv grabbercard (bttv) but 
ofcourse those are more expensive.
Cheers

 I just upgraded from kde 2.2.1 to 2.2.2. The install went very smoothly. I
 downloaded the mandrake i586 rpms from kde's ftp site. I only had two
 failed dependencies which I fixed, and then did rpm -Uvh *.rpm from the
 directory they were in (kde was not running at the time) and away it went.

 When I returned to kde I found it to be really slow. Kmail isn't so bad,
 and non webbrowsing konqueror is ok, but kdevelop and web browsing
 konqueror are incredibly slow. Kdevelop takes a good 5 minutes to shut
 down, and about a minute to do anything (say switch to a different
 document). Generally speaking any k apps are slower than they used to be.

 I'll be reinstalling Mandrake 8.1 tonight, as that's the only way I know of
 to go back to 2.2.1 and be sure of no problems. But if anyone has any
 ideas, I'm all ears.

 Fortunately I backed up everything before attempting 2.2.2.

[newbie] pwcx module kernel = wow strong tobacco (atleast for me =))

2001-11-29 Per discussione Florian Struck

Howdy i have a little (maybe stupid question) =)
Have a look at this :

Installation of this module is very simple; copy the pwcx-i386.o module to 
/lib/modules/usb/pwcx.o, and run 'depmod -a' once. After this, it should be 
possible to load the module on ANY kernel where the pwc.o module has been 
built or loaded (well, provided it's running in an Intel processor, of 
course). 

(got that from http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam )

Those are instructions to add a module for better webcam (quickcam 3000 PRO) 
support im using kernel 2.4.13.xx and the module pwc is loaded nicely but i 
cant change the size of the picture i have to unkompress it with this new 
module anway thts not so important .
My problem is that i dont know much about kernels =)
Fact is that the is not such a dir ( /lib/modules/usb ) so where do i copy 
this mod?
The modules in my kernel (in the dir called 
/lib/modules/2.4.13-11mdk/kernel/drivers/usb ) are all .o.gz files and 
copying it there didnt work.

PLEASE ILLUMINATE ME!!!

[newbie] sounddevice

2001-11-25 Per discussione Florian Struck

Hi i have just succesfully installed a usb webcam (qiuckcam 3000)
using the new 2.4.13 kernel anyhow this camera has an inbuild micro wich is 
loaded as module audio .
Now my original soundcard (es1371) and the webcam (audio) both use the module 
soundcore with xmms i can configure the oss output plugin and choose to use 
either the usb-audio-device (wich ofcourse doesnt work since its only a mic) 
and the es1371 device but many more apps (tuxracer ... etc.) dont work with 
sound anymore .
Now how can i find out what device (/dev/xxx ) is assigned to which driver 
(es1371 or usb-audio) .
reason : I want to use with ALL audio apps the soundcard (es1371) and i want 
to use the usb module (audio) only as mic.
any suggestions ? 
thx

file from .kde/share/config otherwise it will try for a while but not start. 
Also ever since i installed mdk 8.1 (actually it was same with 8.0 too) my 
mousewheel stops working in konqueror after about 10 minutes surfing.

might have something to do with nsplugins .
Ill attach xsessionerrors cause there are a few entrys that i dont quite 
understand ... sorry for the big post
Florian

ps: i didnt do any significant changes to the konqueror setup

Re: [newbie] IRQ`s

2001-11-01 Per discussione Florian Struck

Thanx for the reply. 
I was now trying to do a few things :

First my original setup :

AGP = nvidia
PCI1 = empty
PCI2 = firewire
PCI3 = soundblaster128
PCI4 = ethernet
PCI5 = WinTV
ISA = empty

First i changed the tvcard wich was in the last pci slot (sharing with 
nvidia) to PCI slot1 below the AGP slot restarted my box and it was still 
sharing with nvidia damn .
Then i took out the firewire card and put the tvcard into its slot (PCI2)
After restarting the system it was not sharing anymore tvcard had irq9 and 
nvidia was alone on irq11 ... but it kept crashing the whole system so its 
not about the irq .
So i have two questons :
first how can it be that the agpslot shares with 2 different PCI slots and 
how can it be that i have 5 slots but i can only use 3 of them if i avoid 
sharing the agp`s irq? ( i need atleast 4 of them )
Second question is do you know anything about wintv cards and xawtv why could 
it be crashing my entire system it seems to be not nice at all.
Thanx in advance
Florian

 FS Hello i have a little problem with my irq`s .
 FS Since i have quite a lot of hardware in my box there is some sharing.
 Now the FS problem is that my wintv card shares an irq with my GeForce and
 since it FS crashes my complete system after running xawtv or zapping as
 well as any FS other tv prog its obviously not wise that they share the
 irq with the grafix FS device =).

  Most probably the irq conflict is causing this, you are right.
  Especially the graphics card should stay alone, even though there are
  lots of irq management systems (mean the ones in your board and OS).

 FS Now i dont know much at all about irq management if someone could tell
 me the FS comand to change an irq and which irq is free and available in
 my pc FS here is a cat /proc/interrupts :

  Unfortunately there is no command that can change irqs, as long as
  they asre not pnp etc. But even if they are, I never could get success
  in this. Why ? Because IRQ's are managed by boards more strictly in
  later systems.

 FS # cat /proc/interrupts
 FSCPU0
 FS   0: 567487  XT-PIC  timer
 FS   1:   3092  XT-PIC  keyboard
 FS   2:  0  XT-PIC  cascade

   IRQ 3 and 4 seems to be not used. These are the serial ports. If
   you dont use any of them,or both, shut them off from your bios.

 FS   5:  0  XT-PIC  es1371
   You are very lucky your sound card uses irq 5 (I could not
   manage that) Keep it like this.

 FS   7:  1  XT-PIC  parport0
 FS   8:  1  XT-PIC  rtc
 FS  10:   4323  XT-PIC  usb-uhci, usb-uhci, eth0

  If you are not using any usb devices, shut your usb controllers
  from your bios. They dont screw things but it would be better.

 FS  11: 238652  XT-PIC  bttv, nvidia

  I guess your tv card is in slot 1 of your board. Usually in
  boards the pci slot 1 and the agp slot share the same irq, so
  change the place of it.

 FS  12:  90182  XT-PIC  PS/2 Mouse
 FS  14:  54881  XT-PIC  ide0
 FS  15:   7586  XT-PIC  ide1

  These are all fine. I guess 13 is also being used by something
  related to CPU, so dont try to use 13. (most probably cant
  either)

 FS NMI:  0
 FS ERR:  0

 FS All devices are listed exept my firewire card which i didnt load yet
 but if i FS remember right it would, if loaded, use irq 9 but i might be
 wrong about that.

 Actually irq 9 is not as fine as irq 5,10,11 etc. but I did not
 have any troubles using that.

 Usually boards assign irqs to pci slots, that is like pci slot 3
 can only use irq 9 and the irq of the pci slot 6 (something like
 that). You can find info about this in your mobo's manual, though
 you dont need to waste your time.

 Simply, shut down the systms that you dont use, serial port,
 parallel port, usb etc. After all that, try different combinations
 of pci slots on your board, after a few tries you will realize how
 to solve your trouble.

  Good Luck

[newbie] ISDN

2001-10-21 Per discussione Florian Struck

Hi i have a weird problem after installing 8.1 as firewall and server i 
connect using draknet from a console to my isdn isp and it works well, just 
then when i disconnect it does that well too but after checking draknet once 
more it tells me tat im still connected (ifconfig doesnt!) and its definetly 
disconnected . It wouldn`t disturb me but i`m ofcourse not able to reconnect 
using draknet since it will ask me again and again do disconnect . 
Does someone have an idea what this could be?
If not what other prog could i use to open and close the isdn connection?
Thanx for help.

  Thanks for that. There is no longer support for OptOut.
 
  I am really looking for something that can try and hack me, and give me
  an unbiased result, as opposed to a commercial setup who, if they are
  unsuccessfull, may be trying to sell me a firewall when mine is perfectly
  secure.
 
  I'm not saying that using Bastille Firewall won't make my PC secure, just
  I'd like to play with something that can assure me its as secure as
  possible. My wife's PC running ME regularly has 40 to 50 'hits' an hour.
  This is detected and reported by Zone Alarm.
 
  However when I can convince myself that my Linux machine is hack
  resistant I will move at using it as the gateway, firewall and router.
 
  Thanks again.
