Re: Direct Rendering
If you're in runlevel 5 (X login), then you'll have to edit everything and then reboot or something.. well.. not really but the easiest solution is to be in runlevel 3 (if you're not in runlevel 3, do init 3 as root. hopefully that should work). It's easier this way because you'll have to keep testing things until it's right. startx is the command to get X running from a VT. I have a GeForce2 GTS. I'll send you my config file off the list (if possible). You'll need to edit it to match your system though. DON'T just plop mine in place over your's.

Re: Gzip not compiled for large file size?

I am going to try and upgrade it to 7.3 from 7.2 but first I guess I will have to undo the ximian stuff. Any tips on it? The only thing that worked for me was to remove all the ximian rpms, using a KDE Konsole. Presulably a regualr console would work as well. Hm.

(I wanted to verify this procedure again before commenting on it in the other message about removing rpms in this thread). All I usually did was upgrade using the CDs (booting off them, choosing upgrade) as usual, where I had to tell RH that it's ok with me that it does what it sees fit with overlapping 3rd party packages. After upgrading RH I simply reinstalled ximian using the following procedure: - System-wide X server turned off (telinit 3 or edited initdefault) - On text console 1 log in as root, start X (using just X so it will sit there without any applications - especially no gnome ones) - On text console 2 log in as root, start the ximian installer DISPLAY=:0 ./installer-rpm-glibc2.2-i386 - Switching to the X screen (usually console 7) shows the ximian installer sort of stuck in the upper left corner without any decoration (because no window manager is running); but it is fully useable nonetheless. Finish installation as usual. + Sometimes the installer complains about requireing specific versions of some packages (but that is no longer related to the RH upgrade - would happen with a full reinstall as well, I guess). When you have the machine being installed connected to the internet just removing the offending packages is usually sufficient; if it is in the way a different version would be installed by ximian anyway ;-) - After installation has completed, exit X server (for example using Ctrl-Alt-Backspace in the now empty graphics screen); go back to runlevel 5 (telinit 5) and exit the text consoles.

RE: RedHat Scripts
Hello Hugh and others on the list.
Well I tried the script and it DOES work. At least the application is
brought up just fine and there are no errors that I can see.
Same things when things are shutting down. There are no errors.
I may be premature in saying I see success here, but at least for the
moment I do. I will have to try a few more of my applications yet and than
I will really know.
Also Hugh, I tried to write you privately yesterday and your email address
failed. Maybe I don't have it correctly.. I wanted you to have a quick
look at a script I have here that no longer seems to work. I am guessing
that maybe the change to newer versions of RedHat may be the problem?? I
wonder eh?
Anyways - thanks very much for your input. I also read the backgroup you
spoke of which basically was supporting what you were doing or were after.
All this has been very informative and will no doubt help me continue on to
extensions of these scripts.
I wish there was a more automatic way to do these scripts, but I guess not.
Or at least not at this moment. A simple 'fill-in-the-blanks'
process. Something where you would enter (on a form) what the name of the
application is. Where it was located. And what is the purpose of this
application (description). And than maybe something like the various
levels that you might be interested in. Than when you saved it, it would
be stored in the /etc/init.d directory and you would only than have to run
'chkconfig --add XXX' and finally chkconfig --level 2345 name on'.
Sound simple??

Hi Ted:
I just went through some of this and there are a couple of things
to watch out for. See the init/rc scripts thread in the maillist
archives for details:
https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/private/redhat-list/2002-April/137519.htm
l
Basically you will need to:
1. Write a script to start/stop your process. This script will
need a minimum of two comment lines (chkconfig: and
description:) to supply info to chkconfig. It will need
to handle a parameter with a minimum of 2 values (start and
stop). It will also need to create/delete a marker file in
/var/lock/subsys/.
2. Copy the script to /etc/init.d/.
3. Use the chkconfig --add name command to populate the
/etc/rc*.d/ directories.
For example, say we have a script (xxxsrv) that contains:
:
# chkconfig: 235 99 01
# description:Sample XXX server
#
CMD=`basename $0`
PRG=`echo ${CMD} | sed -e 's/[KS][0-9][0-9]//'`
case $1 in
start)
/usr/bin/XXXstart
touch /var/lock/subsys/${PRG}
;;
stop)
/usr/bin/XXXstop
rm /var/lock/subsys/${PRG} ;;
*)
echo Usage: ${PRG} {start|stop}
;;
esac
The 235 in the chkconfig: comment will tell chkconfig to
install the script into rc2.d, rc3.d and rc5.d. The 99 and
01 will tell chkconfig the level number to use in the S
and K filenames. So after coping our xxxsrv script to
/etc/init.d and then running chkconfig --add xxxsrv we will
have the the following links to the /etc/init.d/xxxsrv script:
/etc/rc0.d/K01xxxsrv
/etc/rc1.d/K01xxxsrv
/etc/rc2.d/S99xxxsrv
/etc/rc3.d/S99xxxsrv
/etc/rc4.d/K01xxxsrv
/etc/rc5.d/S99xxxsrv
/etc/rc6.d/K01xxxsrv
Not that I have not tested the script above but it is a hack
of my working script so I would not anticipate a problem with
it.
That should get you started but check out the references that I
was given in the archived messages for more info.

course I sometimes also call some of these applications from the

I want to do it the right way, at least for once. Is there a

process I can follow to get at least one of these applications
starting up
right and closing down properly? I don't want to learn the process *

When I try to run SDL/OpenGL games like Chromium, Space Tripper or Vega Strike the game runs really slowly as if it weren't accessing the 3D Acceleration at all. I've run Xconfigurator several times, putting in the correct settings for my graphics card (16 MB RAM, no default clockchip, etc) and this doesn't appear to resolve the issue. I'm at a loss what to do: has anyone had similar problems or can anyone help me?

RH 7.3 installation
I had a box running RH 7.2 fine. The only quirk that the box had was that I had to add mem=88M in order to get it to see all the memory in the box. I had to use the mem=88M parameter even during installation of RH 7.2 because otherwise it would say something to the effect that there was not enough memory to perform the installation and quit. However, with mem=88M, the box installed RH 7.2 and ran great. Now I am trying to install RH 7.3 on the same box. If I try to perform a simple installation without the mem=88M parameter, I get a message saying not enough memory to install RH. If I use mem=88M (I tried this with 64M and 32 M also), then, when the box tries to load the kernel from the boot floppy, I get the floppy message and a kernel panic: EXT2-FS: unable to read super block Cramfs: wrong magic FAT: Unable to read boot sector Isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev=09:00 iso blknum=16,block=32 Kernel panic: VFS unable to mount root fs on 09:00 Any ideas why RH 7.2 installs fine on the box but not 7.3?

Incorrect, Brother Burger. Deeply, profoundly incorrect. SMTP AUTH is a standard, defined via RFC as standards are. It therefore meets your existing criterion. It is also extremely easy to implement (meeting your second criterion). Any user with enough skill (loosely defined) to modify sendmail.mc and allow their mailserver to receive connections from the network can also uncomment the following three lines (straight from the stock sendmail.mc): define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl Then restart sendmail; that's all there is to it. On the other hand, POP-before-SMTP is not a standard or anything close to it. It is a kludge (albeit a useful kludge) which was implemented during the interval _after_ SMTP AUTH was defined but _before_ most mailers supported it. Note that LookOut, LookOut Express, Eudora, Evolution, KMail, and even pine support SMTP AUTH. Whichever mailers don't support it, are simply broken. I also don't find it easier to implement.

I'm trying to dd a CDROM to produce an ISO image using the following: # dd if=/dev/hdc of=cdrom.iso This works, and I can mount the resulting ISO using the loop device, but there's an I/O error at the end: # dd if=/dev/hdc of=cdrom.iso dd: reading `/dev/hdc': Input/output error 1000480+0 records in 1000480+0 records out It's apparently missing a byte or two because the MD5 sums don't match what they're supposed to be. What is the best way to get an image from a CDROM? Should I be using 512k blocks and the specific number of blocks with the count= argument? My reason for doing all of this is to verify the CDROM was burned to correctly match that of the original ISO. Is there a better way? thanks. __ Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!

Making boot.img floppy
Hello all: I need to make a boot floppy to install RH 7.3 on my machine as I can not boot from CD. I am finding the boot.img to large to fit on a standard 1.44 floppy. Is there a way around this? Do I need a larger floppy disk? When I have installed 6.2 in the past I never had a problem with floppy size but I guess that boot.img is getting larger. I was using rawrite.exe from the redhat cd on an old Windoze 98 machine via dos emulation. If I were to use dd what is the format of that command to place that file on a floppy. I still wonder of using dd would allow the boot.img to fit on a 1.44 floppy.

SMTP AUTH is a standard, defined via RFC as standards are. It therefore meets your existing criterion. It is also extremely easy to implement (meeting your second criterion). Any user with enough skill (loosely defined) to modify sendmail.mc and allow their mailserver to receive connections from the network can also uncomment the following three lines (straight from the stock sendmail.mc): define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')dnl TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl Then restart sendmail; that's all there is to it. On the other hand, POP-before-SMTP is not a standard or anything close to it. It is a kludge (albeit a useful kludge) which was implemented during the interval _after_ SMTP AUTH was defined but _before_ most mailers supported it. Note that LookOut, LookOut Express, Eudora, Evolution, KMail, and even pine support SMTP AUTH. Whichever mailers don't support it, are simply broken. I also don't find it easier to implement. Additional packages, additional databases, also having to modify sendmail.mc, and the fact that all my users scream about their mail not leaving their computer, the grief about having to constantly check mail twice, etc... all these things tell me that POP-before-SMTP is not my friend. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Well, you can make yourself a .xsession file. That will usurp the _entire_ session, so you will need to start at least the window manager and maybe some clients if you want them there at startupo.

All I usually did was upgrade using the CDs (booting off them, choosing upgrade) as usual, where I had to tell RH that it's ok with me that it does what it sees fit with overlapping 3rd party packages. After upgrading RH I simply reinstalled ximian using the following procedure: - System-wide X server turned off (telinit 3 or edited initdefault) - On text console 1 log in as root, start X (using just X so it will sit there without any applications - especially no gnome ones) - On text console 2 log in as root, start the ximian installer DISPLAY=:0 ./installer-rpm-glibc2.2-i386 - Switching to the X screen (usually console 7) shows the ximian installer sort of stuck in the upper left corner without any decoration (because no window manager is running); but it is fully useable nonetheless. Finish installation as usual. + Sometimes the installer complains about requireing specific versions of some packages (but that is no longer related to the RH upgrade - would happen with a full reinstall as well, I guess). When you have the machine being installed connected to the internet just removing the offending packages is usually sufficient; if it is in the way a different version would be installed by ximian anyway ;-) - After installation has completed, exit X server (for example using Ctrl-Alt-Backspace in the now empty graphics screen); go back to runlevel 5 (telinit 5) and exit the text consoles. Worked for me everytime; yesterday even between upgrading RH and reinstalling Ximian the gnome desktop was in a useable state (as my girlfriend accidentally found out :-) What exactly are the upgrade problems you're experiencing? Joe, I commend you on your acumen in carrying out the upgrade/ximianisation, as you've described. You are at a different level than I, for sure. When I attempted the upgrade of my ximianised 7.1 machine, I followed the Red Hat release notes, which are, as I recall, identical to the release notes for 7.3. After upgrade, I went (whilst logged in to a Ximian Gnome desktop) to the Ximian site to perform a reinstall. It simply bombed. The machine was unusable as a gnome machine. KDE worked, however. So, faced with an unusable gnome environment, I went through the rpm -e route, as noted earlier in the thread.

Re: Making boot.img floppy
rawrite and dd do the same thing in this application. The image will fit on a 1.44MB floppy. All the floppy images are the exact size of a standard floppy. dd if=boot.img of=/dev/fd0 or dd if=boot.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k count=1 The second command will write the first 1.44MB out, but since the image is supposed to be 1.44MB anyway, the last 2 options are redundant.

When I have installed 6.2 in the past I never had a problem with floppy size but I guess that boot.img is getting larger. I was using rawrite.exe from the redhat cd on an old Windoze 98 machine via dos emulation. If I were to use dd what is the format of that command to place that file on a floppy.

SSH and dialout
I've got a RH 6.2 server with a modem running pppd. The pppd is set to dial out when an internet connection is needed by someone on the LAN. I can connect to the server via SSH from a machine on the LAN, but when I do, it dials out, which I don't want it to do. Hopefully, this isn't a quirk of SSH. I imagine this has something to do with the way the name recognition and such is set up. I'm not running DHCP or DNS on this machine. It has a hosts file that identifies all the machines on the LAN. Its resolv.conf specifies the internet nameservers of my ISP, as in nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. Can someone with more knowledge of this area than I have assist in helping me set up this machine so that SSH doesn't cause a dialout, but the machine can still be used as I described above?

I would think you could change the username in the password and shadow files or just add a user with the same userid. As I understand it the file ownership is determined by the userid number not the username so associating a new name to the same number should work. Now if you are trying to change the files for a web domain...this is a different animal and is has nothing to do with Redhat, but rather the linux filesystem. You'll have to change the ownership recursively for each domain. As for your comments to the others on this list, many of whom have been a great benefit to the community, you have the right to unsubscribe! They were trying to better understand your question so they could give you a more sufficient or appropriate answer. Saying Redhat sucks because you can't figure out how to change the ownership of files on a LINUX filesystem makes no since to me. The fundamentals are all the same despite the distribution. Please take a moment to breath and let people help rather than blowing up at them after all romper room was an educational show for preschoolers not a community support system where understanding the problem in detail is important. using RH 7.2 how can I change JUST the ownerships globally, using chown, for all domains (have 100)... and have each domain endup having the ownerships of all their files/dirs using THEIR specific user/group ownerships? (need to do this all at once) i.e. say i have a domain called komp.com the user (when ftping) is: com and the group is : com but I can't have com used for the other domains. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
RH vs. LILO
Hi all, Can someone help me figure out how to get my RH 7.2 back? I've used a LILO boot diskette since installing RH on my dual boot RH 7.2 / Win 98 system. I recently used Partition Magic to increase the size of my RH / partition and now the boot diskette won't work. I guess it knew the partition layout. My RH partitions are all Ext2, not Ext3 type. Now I need to figure out how to boot something that will allow me to get back into RH and I haven't a clue as to what. I might install PM's boot loader to give me a permanent solution. Is this a viablesolution? I have PM 5.0. I've not been successful with GRUB -- it got an exception during the RH 7.2install.I backed off to LILO, But it would not install on the hdd -- cylinder no 1024. System is an Athlon 850, 256 MB RAM, 13 GB IBM HDD (ATA66) using an Via-based MB. TIA, Eric
