Hello Everyone, I have been talking with several people about starting up a Linux user group in Hiram, GA. This is my plan so far. 1. Teach people to use Linux. 2.

I am guessing that you have at least one bad memory stick in the computer. I would run memtest or equivalent on the system and see what you get as a report. Bad ram can cause funny problems. If one stick shows up as bad you could try the pencil eraser as a cleaner on the contacts and stick it back in. I had some bad ram once and windows reported all of it there but memtest said the stick in the second slot was bad, I cleaned it and then it reported back as good, well mostly.

[newbie] Windows CE and Linux
Hello, I can across this has any one tried this? if so does it work. IntroductionThis will tell you how to set up a masqueraded PPP connection via. IrDA from a Windows CE PC Companion to a Linux based notebook computer. Once you are IP connected, the rest is up to you. We put this together as a guide for Sony notebook users with Casio I-100/105 PDA's, though the procedure should work for any Windows CE 2.11 device with infrared capabilities talking to any notebook. Do all the Linux side testing signed on as root, standard warnings apply. Step by Step 1. Configure a network connection for your Windows CE device. Go into "Connections" and create a "Direct Connection" Name it something meaningful, for device select "Infrared Port". Go into settings and change the baud rate to 115200, this is the max for Windows CE. Go to TCP/IP settings and check "Use server-assigned IP address," and "Use software compression," and "Use IP header compression" Make sure "Use Slip," is unchecked. For Name Servers, make sure "Use server-assigned addresses" is checked. Go to Start, Settings, Communications, Identification and enter something for the Device Name. (I used "cetoy") You most likely already have these values set if you have synced with a Win9x desktop using ActiveSync.2. Set up IrDA support on your notebook (described elsewhere) and get to the point where your notebook will discover an IrDA compliant device. A good sign is the irda0 device will show up when you execute "ifconfig". It will not have an IP address, this is ok.3. Test the discovery by setting an IrDA device in range of your IR port, wait 5 seconds, and;" cat /proc/net/irda/discovery"For example, the Ericsson I888 World Phone with IR port enabled should immediately show something like this:"name:I 888 WORLD ,hint:0x9104,saddr:0x838470e5,daddr:0x152dceaa"Your Windows CE machine will not be discovered unless it's actively looking for a connection. So, if you want to test with Windows CE position your device and double tap on the network icon you created in step 2, you should see something like this:"name:mytoy,hint:0x8204,saddr:0x838470e5,daddr:0x0b72"The name displayed will be whatever value you have entered into the Start Settings Communications Identification as the Device Name. At this point, with basic IrDA functioning- we can move on to establishing a PPP connection for Windows CE. These scripts can also be used for serial cable connects. Create the following files and copy them into the directory indicated.[/usr/sbin/cebox.sh - make it executable]#!/bin/shpppd call ceboxBecause Microsoft likes to break standards, you need the following chat script. This will feed Windows CE the proper ASCII keywords it wants before allowing a PPP connection.[/etc/ppp/cebox.chat]TIMEOUT 3600"CLIENT" "CLIENT\c""" "SERVER\c"The following file will allow you to specify the IP addresses, IR (or serial port if using a cable) device, DNS and so forth. I do not recommend you change the 192.IP addresses below. Windows CE really has an affection for 192.168.55.100 because all the MS synch tools seem to have it hardcoded. DNS can be whatever you normally use.[/etc/ppp/peers/cebox]/dev/irnine 115200 crtsctsconnect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/cebox.chat'noauthlocal192.168.55.101:192.168.55.100ms-dns 10.2.0.1Testing the connectionOk, now you can test the connection to make sure it all works. Reboot your Linux machine, run "irmanager -d 1", it should automatically run "irattach /dev/ttyS2" (/dev/ttyS2 being the serial port your BIOS sees the IR device as, if irattach is not running, start it) Align the IR ports, at the Linux command prompt type "/usr/sbin/cebox.sh", and simultaneously press return to start cebox and double tap your connection icon in Windows CE. You should get a happy message from Windows CEreporting Connecting to Host, Device Connected, Authenticating User, User Authenticated and finally Connected. You should see something like this when you are connected;irda0 Link encap:IrLAP HWaddr 06:89:d0:58UP RUNNING NOARP MTU:2048 Metric:1RX packets:246 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0TX packets:251 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0collisions:0 txqueuelen:8ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocolinet addr:192.168.55.101 P-t-P:192.168.55.100 Mask:255.255.255.255UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1RX packets:10 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0TX packets:10 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0collisions:0 txqueuelen:10The following script sets up IrDA, establishes a PPP connection with Windows CE, and then sets up IP masquerading. It is provided as an example of how you can tie this all together. This is more or less a manual approach. You can get creative, start irmanager at boot and stick a line in inittab to constantly look for a Windows CE connection on the IRport. This will however, run down your batteries and limit your ability to access other IR
