Hi, I am not able to configure my vga card in Red Hat Linux 6.2. It is SiS 630 which is present in the database of linux which i configure with the help of xf86config utility, but after configuring it, my STARTX doesn't work properly.. I am getting problem as i had upgraged my system from P1 to PIII with onboard agp card of SiS 630,previously i had SiS 6215 which was already configured on my system properly. Can i any one help me in configuring my VGA card or can send me the driver or necessary files if any needed for the same.

Re: rawhide: compat-glibc-6.2-2.1.3.2.src.rpm fails to compile
compat packages have to be built in the environment that they prodive compatibility for. In this case, compat-glibc-6.2 has to be built on a 6.2 system. As for the other stuff, you have some strange mix of a pinstripe and a rawhide, it seems. Pick one or the other, install Everything. All packages except kernel (actually, kernel should work now), anonftp, and MAKEDEV are built as non-root here at Red Hat. We do massive system rebuilds all the time for toolchain regression tests. It doesn't make sense that you see problems. We can't reproduce it here, and as our package rebuilds work fine here we don't care much that your --rebuild doesn't work. If you have some foo package that doesn't rebuilt, figure out why. If you think it's a significant problem in the package, make a patch and submit it to bugzilla. We don't have time to go through each report and say, "update your kudzu" and so on.

Re: chmod problem..
How do I recursively SGID a directory tree, but only hitting the dirs, not the files? In other words, I want: chmod -R g+s dir/ But no files SGID, just the subdirectories? Can I use the "X" permission somehow? I never understood it..

Re: Driver disk creation - where do I find the .config file that was used to create the driver disk vmlinuz file?
Hi Dan, - compile the .h and .c from dandelion.com in the linux src tree. (make modules) - take the resulting DAC960.o file and gzip it. copy the DAC960.o.gz to /mnt/floppy and rename it modules.cgz. That procedure is not correct. cgz stands for .cpio.gz, so it is a gzipped cpio archive. What you want to do is decompress the existing modules.cgz, add your new module to it and make it into an gzipped archive again, something like: a)cp /work/modules.cgz /work/modules.cpio.gz b) gzip -d /work/modules.cpio.gz c) cpio -i -F /work/modules.cpio --list mod-list d) cpio -i -F /work/modules.cpio -d This creates the file mod-list and the directory containing the modules. This directory contains the driver files. e) copy your module to this directory f) You must add the added drivers to mod-list Reconstruct the archive: g) cpio -o mod-list modules.cpio h) gzip -9 modules.cpio You now have a usable modules.cgz. - create a modinfo file like the following: Version 0 DAC960 scsi "Mylex AcceleRaid 352 DAC960" But then what do I put in the pcitable file? In the pcitable file you make an entry with the module name, a descriptor, and both manufacturer and device ID. These ID's are shown at boot by the bios. Concerning the end of your subject line "Driver disk creation - where do I find the .config file that was used to create the driver disk vmlinuz file?", I think the kernel image is probably the same image as in the package kernel- BOOT-##. You can find the standard config files in the source tree (/usr/src/linux/configs). You most probaly need the kernel-BOOT config when compiling modules for a driver disk. For your installed system you need the "full" driver though. I don't know how RedHat usually handles this, but you might have to post install the full driver by hand. You can also check the kernel-BOOT package to see if there is a precompiled module you can use. Bye, Leonard. P.S. I wrote a kind of rough mini howto on how to edit a (net)boot floppy, which is rather appropriate to this situation (if you know how to fill in the differences).

Re: Network problems
I know this sounds obvious - but is the physical network working? Do you have link lights on your network cards on? Then - the hosts file in Windows is in C:\WINDOWS\hosts - no extension, just hosts. Probably not one there already. You can't ping either box from either box? Using ping ipaddress or ping hostname? hosts.deny is in /etc/hosts.deny; hosts.allow is in /etc/hosts.allow on your linux box. As far as internet connection sharing on the Windows box, I've used the Internet Connection Sharing built in to my version of Win 98 - but it might be just the second edition. I really didn't have any trouble setting it up - the windows box was 192.168.0.1 and the linux box was 192.168.0.2 just like yours. When the modem was dialed in, and the linux gateway set to 192.168.0.1, everything was available via the linux box. (Although I did have to set nameservers on the linux box). Also, I do remember that I had to restart Windows several times after installing this stuff to get Windows to work with its ip address. dunno if any of this will help... -Dusty.

Samba Newbie alert!
Ok. I'm running Samba and have used swat (samba gui tool) to configure my smb.conf file. After I startup the daemons I can see the server from my NT client however I am prompted for a user account and password when I try to attach to a samba share. I've tried administrator (from the NT domain) and root (from the unix box). I'm simply unable to get in. If I setup "map to guest" and select "Bad User" then I can get in.

What I would like to do is basically have my NT users (4.0 and 2000) map to my samba share and authenticate through my NT domain controller (PDC) without creating an account on the unix side. Is this possible? I'm getting the impression samba requires a unix account which would defeat what I'm trying to build. A NT/UNIX single login solution. We tried NIS but that is going with two login databases. I'm really interested in maintaining one if possible. Any ideas on what I've missed? Here is my smb.conf file. It's pretty basic.

Re: Network problems
Um - yeah. Your problem is that you can't see 192.168.0.1 from .2, and/or vice-versa; not gateway problems. Sorry for misleading you! And the resolv.conf file - "man resolver" says that a line starting with "nameserver" should give the ip address immediately after it - so if the nameserver you want to use is x.x.x.x, put "nameserver x.x.x.x" on that line, or enter x.x.x.x in linuxconf. But - that probably still isn't what's keeping you from seeing the other machine. Since you are seeing both eth0 and lo in ifconfig, the driver for your card must be loaded OK (did it display ip addresses with both eth0 and lo?). You can ping 127.0.0.1 from the linux box?

The uid and gids mean different things on the remote Irix box, so I am getting the group "games" listed when I list all the files in the mounted directory, but when viewed locally on the Irix box, the group is "users." On the Linux system, I have chmod'd 2775 all the directories used by a group called "product" so that each user, when creating a file under this subdirectory structure, will create a file with a user named "product" so everyone else in that group can read and write it. I have been looking at the man page for mount and am trying to figure out if I am going in the right direction in looking and setuid and setgid, for example. Is there a way to fool my Linux box into reading users and groups off the mounted Irix box to comply with the "products" group under Linux? Is this making any sense? I want everyone in "products" to be able to read and write files and for the world to be able to read them. I confess to being confused about all this and would appreciate any guidance.

Re: how to look at files in *.img files
Thanks. Interestingly enough it would not mount as ext2 which is what I have /mnt/floppy set to in fstab. I also had a /mnt/fatfloppy that was set to msdos file system that works. Why would this be an msdos type? Is there a compatability issue somewhere that makes redhat need. Eh.. I dunno. I love images tho.. they're perdy ;) Thanks again, I thought I had tried the msdos thing but I guess not correctly.

Many thanks Eduardo First thing have you installed the upgrades from the redhat errata site? seems like there were some issues with lpd being broken on one of the distributions. There is also a file /etc/hosts.lpd that needs to have access for the remote box enabled. I just put + in mine.

Gary Gary I have been struggling with this too. Wat I have come to find out mainly from this list but from reading aand rereading the docs, is that NFS sends the userid groupid in all requests. That is the numeric value and NOT the username and groupname. I was told that this is just the way it works and that I need to set up NIS to keep the passwd files in sync. I have done som prelimiary reading but have not had the chance to actually install NIS yet. Hope this helps.

Re: Network problems
Okay, I can't even begin to tell you how stupid I feel right now. I almost want to make up some fix that I had to apply to get this to work. Turns out, I mistyped the IP address for my Windows box. I had it set to 192.160.0.1. Doh! Feel free to call me whatever names you can come up with... :) Your message lead me to discover this - the windows box couldn't ping itself. Thought that was odd and explored further. Man, I feel dumb... :) Granted, I didn't have the default route setup previously, so this wasn't all for naught... Thanks to all who helped. :) As for the nameserver, I don't have an IP for the one I use. I have DNS disabled in my TCP/IP settings. Can I use my windows box as the DNS by chance? Also, any thoughts on how I can share the net connection? As mentioned previously, Win98 std. doesn't have net sharing included. Jason At 04:20 PM 8/24/00 -0500, you wrote: Um - yeah. Your problem is that you can't see 192.168.0.1 from .2, and/or vice-versa; not gateway problems. Sorry for misleading you! And the resolv.conf file - "man resolver" says that a line starting with "nameserver" should give the ip address immediately after it - so if the nameserver you want to use is x.x.x.x, put "nameserver x.x.x.x" on that line, or enter x.x.x.x in linuxconf. But - that probably still isn't what's keeping you from seeing the other machine. Since you are seeing both eth0 and lo in ifconfig, the driver for your card must be loaded OK (did it display ip addresses with both eth0 and lo?). You can ping 127.0.0.1 from the linux box? You can ping 127.0.0.1 from the windows box? You can ping 192.168.0.1 from the windows box? You can ping 192.168.0.2 from the linux box? -Dusty [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/24/00 01:37PM I guess I hadn't saved the default gateway setting in linuxconf. Regardless, that wasn't the problem. I changed it and it didn't help... :( Here's my route output: Destination Gateway GenmaskFlMet Ref Use Iface 192.168.0.2# 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0 92.168.0.0# 255.255.255.0U 0 0 0eth0 127.0.0.0 # 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default Shag0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0eth0 Shag is mapped to 192.168.0.1 in /etc/hosts.

Jason At 11:54 AM 8/24/00 -0500, you wrote: You might see what /sbin/route gives you ... although I tried this on a box at work and the command doesn't exist. So I must have something on my home machine that I don't have at work. If the route command works, you can check your gateway that way - your gateway should show up as a line labeled "default", mask 0.0.0.0 at the bottom of the list, interface eth0 in your situation. Also, is the ip address that's bound to eth0 192.168.0.2 ? -Dusty. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/24/00 11:44AM Yes, I am sure the eth0 interface is up and running. When I do a 'ifconfig' it shows up with the proper IP, etc. I will attempt to ping the loopback when I get home. As for the webpage, I don't have Apache installed on the linux box yet, I was waiting to get the networking up first. Unless Apache is installed by default (std. Workstation install), I can't check that. I have tried pinging using both IP and name with no luck either way. The 2 boxes are connected via a switch and 2 10/100 NICs. The linux box has a triple boot (Win98/Win2k/RH6.0) and the LAN works fine in both other OS's. So, I don't think it's a hardware issue. Someone earlier asked me if I had the routes setup properly. I haven't a clue. Any thoughts?

IDE installation moving to a root RAID (hardware RAID) - bootup problem: Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init = option to kernel.
I'm trying to load RedHat 6.2 on a server with a Mylex 352 card. I've been unable to create a drivers diskette because the driver requires 2.2.16 (rh62 is 2.2.14). So I gave up and just decided to install to IDE, load the new kernel+drivers, then move /root and /boot over to the raid device. After making the kernel and doing all the right mtab and fstab things and doing a "# cp -R -x / /mnt/slash", and a "# cp -R /boot /mnt/boot". Then changing lilo.conf to have the new root device of /dev/rd/c0d0p1, it comes up with the following during bootup: Warning: Unable to open an initial console Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init = option to kernel. What is the init = option, and how do I use it? Plus, how do I create a initial ram disk (initrd)? And do I need one even though I compiled the raid card drivers into the 2.2.16 kernel (not as modules)?

I can offer an answer on the initial ram disk at least. mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.2.16.img 2.2.16-3 should do it. Substitute whatever kernel version/name you are using of course.

Can you please help me with this, and tell me do i have to install Staroffice under Gnome to have it or i can just transfer somehow my installation from KDE. I've done this in 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2. Run the install as root (so.whatever.bin /net) and put it in a central location (I use /opt/staroffice). Then when a user starts the program (/path/install_dir/program/soffice) it will run the install script if necessary. The user should do a workstation install, which requires less than 5MB diskspace. I usually do two other things as root: 1. Create a script in /usr/local/bin that has a single command: /opt/staroffice/program/soffice "$1" That way the 'soffice' command is in a normal user's path. 2.
