Ok,

Can we agree to differ and quit with the topic, which whilst having
merits, seems blatently unresolvable.

At the moment this thread has turned into an annoyance at best and is
clogging up my reading of the actual real reasons for this mailing list

There isn't any kind of software that will do that.  It is a physical limitaion
of the CD-ROM drive.  The lasers are different.  You want to read DVDs, you

  It could be that sound is running as a service, and you have no
card; I believe the kernel will try all the configured sound modules
(and dependencies) until something succeeds. To check do:

 chkconfig --list

or
setup -> System Services 

If sound is running, you can turn it off for the runlevels you use: 

chkconfig --level 35 sound off

would turn off sound for runlevels 3 and 5. See 'man chkconfig.'

If sound isn't running as a service, you might try:

alias sound-slot-0 null
alias sound-service-0-0 null

in /etc/modules.conf rather than 'off'. Maybe if modprobe succeeds, it
will quit. See 'man modules.conf.
   Short of a compile with N for the  whole sound section, one of
the above might work.

  Best,

  Tom

IIRC,  this kernel had this problem with smp systems.  The resolution was

Installation Probs on 8.0

[Barry Willett]

Hello - I've been having one problem every time I've tried installing RH
8.0.  The install process actually goes fine.  I install onto hdb,
install the bootloader onto hdb1, and then create a bootdisk.  After the
install is done, I attempt to boot into RH using the boot disk and every
time, it hangs at a process: INIT: Version 2.84 loading.

I'm not sure what the problem is here.  I'm unable to even get into RH
to be able to configure anything.  My config is as follows:

AMD Athlon 600
384 MB memory
NVidia GeForce 4 MX420
SoundBlaster Audigy
2 40GB hard drives
12x/8x/32x CDRW
DVD-ROM
...

Any suggestions or comments?  Thanks...

Barry

Re: 2nd Post - Problem Making the Joystick driver -

[Joe Giles]

OK, I think I have fixed the original driver that comes with Linux... The
Sound Blaster Live card uses the emu10k1-gp mod and not the ns558 like the
instructions state. So that problem is solved...

I am, however, still having the original problem with compiling a new
driver. I would still like to do this as I wish to modify the code to
allow the ANT knob on the TQS to be a rudder. So, I'm still faced with the
compile issue.

Any Thoughts?

   The general form for smbclient is:

  smbclient //server-name/service

For example, to specify the "myfiles" shared directory on the server
whose NETBIOS name was "win.nt.com":

  smbclient //win.nt.com/myfiles

Note: the NETBIOS name is not always the same as the IP name.

  smbclient -L "server-name" (without the "") 

will give you a listing of the "services" available on that server.

The -D option is used for changing to a specified directory on your
machine before starting.
The -n option would be used to if you had to pass your NETBIOS name to
the server.
The -U is is your username that the server knows.

Most of the time
smbclient /// is
enough. You will be prompted for a password.

  Tom

Ericsson PipeRider USB Cable Modem?

[Max Cavalera]

I'm using RH7.3 with a Ericsson PipeRider USB Cable Modem and I 
can't seem to get the modem configured nor detected correctly. I 
read somewhere that it was necessary to recompile the kernel with 
the USB Communication Class Ethernet device support (EXPERIMENTAL)
support. So I did, but with the new recompiled kernel the system 
can't even detect the device. Can't someone help me? It would be 
much easier if the modem was connected to an ethernet card..

I've never used smbclient, but have your tried mounting a share with
smbmount?

"smbmount //server/shared /mnt/smb"

Asks for user name and password if required.

smbclient IIRC, is an ftp-like program. Is that what your really want?

Re: redundant ethernet cards

[Edwin Fung]

Hi Nathalie,

It is OK to use the same ethernet address on both cards.  However, you 
don't want them (i.e. the 2 ethernet cards) to be up (or active) at the 
same time, since that would confuse whoever on your machine is using the 
network about which network interface (should one use eth0 or eth1?).  Make 
sure that you only have one ethernet card to be in the "up" state.  You can 
use the ifconfig command to set a network interface to be either "up" or 
"down".  You can accomplish the same by setting the interface "active" or 
"inactive" by using the GUI "Network Configuration" (Gnome -> Programs-> 
System -> Network Configuration).

Suppose you have eth0 "up" but eth1 "down".  If eth0 does indeed fail, you 
simply bring eth0 down, and then bring eth1 up, again using the ifconfig 
command or the "Network Configuration" GUI.  This is not "automatic", but I 
think it should work well enough in most cases.  If you're worry about the 
network card going down during the off-hours (evenings, weekends) then 
write a cron job to periodically check the active network interface (e.g. 
if you can ping some known computer in your network), and if the network is 
not responding, then use ifconfig to switch network cards.

  Red Hat is using a different version of the ide driver than most other 
distros.  It will refuse to turn on dma on certain chipsets.  For 
example RH 7.3-8.0 refuses to turn on dma on any Serverworks OSB4 
chipset.  I'd advise using either 2.4.19, or 2.4.20pre8-ac3  if you want 
to use dma.

couple of the basic questions should probably be answered.

what does cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward show?

needs to be 1

what are the firewall rules doing?  anything getting logged?  

My guess is that one of these is ging to be the issue.

BTW I don't see how this machine can see the default gateway since it is
not on any of the subnets your machine is connected to.

connecting to NT server

[dbrett]

I am trying to connect to an NT server from my linux workstation.

I run the following command

snmbclient //"ntdomain"/server/ "password" -U dbrett -n dbrett -D "public
directory"

I get the following error
Connection to "ntdomain" failed

It does try and connect to the right server.

Squirrelmail is a server side application.  It's intended to help get multiple 
users online with web based email--not to get one user to multiple spools. 
I've not yet run across a package to do that...

Portmap is required on the client for rpc.statd and rpc.lockd.

routed

[Matt Sales]

Hello,
I'm using RH7.2 with route...  I'm having a problem forwarding traffic from
two separate lans.  I know my kernel is configured correctly, because I had
it working before I swapped out the lan cards (bad move).

My router has two interfaces, eth0:10.0.0.164 and eth1:10.0.0.177.

my routing table looks like this:
10.0.0.1760.0.0.0255.255.255.240U000eth1
10.0.0.1600.0.0.0255.255.255.240U000eth0
127.0.0.00.0.0.0255.0.0.0U000lo
0.0.0.066.83.159.161000eth0

I can hit the router from each individual lan, but I cannot pass through.
Looking at tcpdump, attempts to ping one lan from the other stop at the
interface for that network, i.e., a ping from 10.0.0.168 to 10.0.0.179 gets
as far as 10.0.0.164 and then is not passed to eth1 for delivery.  I can't
figure it out.  I have iptables running on top of it (unsuccessfully) to
forward the packets, but there's got to be a better way.

I know this is probably not enough info, but any suggestions would help.  If
you need more info I'd be more than happy to send it along.

Thanks,
Matt

2nd Post - Problem Makeing the Joystick driver -

[Joe Giles]

List,
I have been using Linux for 3 or 4 years and the one thing that I have
always had problems with is making the Joystick driver. I got the latest
driver and unpack it. then when I type make, I get all kinds of errors.
If you need to see them, let me know and I will paste it to the next
message.

I am running RedHat 7.3 with the latest kernel. I have made several
other packages without problems. The kernel is set up to use a joystick
module. I will paste the last few lines of the make if this will help.

Oh, Im trying to get BASIC functionality from an F-22 Pro and TQS F-16
from Thrustmaster. All I really need for now is the axis and the first 3
or 4 buttons and the hats. Any help would be appreciated...

Here is some of the code from the make:

joystick.c: At top level:

Re: mysql and glibc-2.2.5-40 bug

[Davide Giunchi]

for rh7.3 and others with latest glibc update:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=75128

the solution is to downgrade to previous glibc version.

for rh8.0 default installation:

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=74943

I've solved the problem erasing the default redhat rpms and installing those 
from mysql.com .
You can find the same problem reported on lwn.net .

It seems that redhat has done a very bad job in the glibc update and new 
redhat8.0 version.

DVD and DMA

[Keith Winston]

I have an IDE DVD drive (/dev/hdc) and I would like to turn on DMA to
speed up playback of movies in ogle.

In SuSE 8.0, I am able to use:
hdparm -d1 -X34 /dev/hdc
to turn on DMA and it makes a huge difference in playback frame rates.

When I use this command (as root) in Red Hat 8.0, I get an error...
/dev/hdc:
Setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)

I verified that the device was owned by root and rw for root.  Does
anyone know why this doesn't work?

Best Regards,
Keith

Right...

I used to be a POP kinda guy, so I used popper_mod. Then I installed

RE: mysql and glibc-2.2.5-40 and glibc-2.2.5-30 bug

[Julio Gruskin]

The bug also affects glibc-2.2.5-30 in RH7.2 when updating your system with
up2date
Solution: Just roll back to the previous version of glibc (2.2.5-29)

Asunto: mysql and glibc-2.2.5-40 bug


Just for our own sanity we tested this out on a clean 7.3 box.
We started with a clean RH7.3 install, installed mysql via up2date.
In mysql we reset the admin password and set the user table to allow
connections from everywhere.
At this point we can make a connection to the box on 3306 and everything
works as expected.

We ran an up2date which included the new glibc update (2.2.5-40) and then
restarted the mysql daemon.
At this point we are unable to make a remote connection to the server on
3306 and the mysql process is very unstable.  The mysql process will seg
fault under even low load.  If a large query is thrown at it, it will die
almost instantly.  These are the entries that show up in the mysql log:

Number of processes running now: 3
mysqld process hanging, pid 7626 - killed
mysqld process hanging, pid 7626 - killed
mysqld process hanging, pid 7626 - killed
021005 09:58:41  mysqld restarted
021005  9:58:41  Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in
use
021005  9:58:41  Do you already have another mysqld server running on port:
3306 ?
021005  9:58:41  Aborting
021005  9:58:41  /usr/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
021005 09:58:41  mysqld ended

If we roll back to the previous version of glibc (2.2.5-39) everything
starts working properly again.
We have also seen this same behavior on a fresh 8.0 install, which must
include the same changes to glibc.

Has anyone else seen these same problems and come up with a different
workaround or solution.  We tried this with a fresh system just to make sure
that this had nothing to do with our data.

Jon

Has anyone checked bugzilla?  It is not a bug unless it is in bugzilla
according to several of the RH emps . that have lurked this list in the

Re: mysql and glibc-2.2.5-40 bug

[Joe Giles]

I know others have had problems with this, so I tested on my servers after
an upgrade (last week) and I don't notice any problems. One of my PHP
portals go hosed and cant connect to it from a web browser, but the other
3 and a webmail app that uses MySQL seem to work fine. I can even connect
to it and run queries from a Windows MySQL ODBC driver.

Here are my versions if this helps...

MySQL:
mysql-devel-3.23.49-3
mysql-server-3.23.49-3
php-mysql-4.1.2-7.3.4
mysql-3.23.49-3
mysqlclient9-3.23.22-6
mod_auth_mysql-1.11-1

Apache:
apacheconf-0.8.2-2
apache-devel-1.3.23-14
apache-manual-1.3.23-14
apache-1.3.23-14

PHP:
asp2php-0.76.2-1
php-ldap-4.1.2-7.3.4
php-manual-4.1.2-7.3.4
php-4.1.2-7.3.4
php-devel-4.1.2-7.3.4
php-mysql-4.1.2-7.3.4
asp2php-gtk-0.76.2-1
php-imap-4.1.2-7.3.4

GLibc
glibc-2.2.5-40
glibc-devel-2.2.5-40
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-7.16
glibc-common-2.2.5-40

If you need any further info for research, let me know. Again, mine works
fine and has since I upgraded glibc about a week or so ago...

Turns out it was some kind of weirdness with portmap on the *client* side. 
Portmap shouldn't be required on the client, but starting portmapper there 
solved the problem.

You probably want to mount the NFS shares with "hard,intr" as options. 
This will allow the connection to be killed if needed.

RedHat8 and NIS login

[Vincent . Fortier1]

Hi there,

I've installed redhat 8 from scratch on my test workstation and reconfigured
it using NIS like I usually did with redhat 7.x...

When logged has root I can do an "su - MyNISAccount" in a shell and I'll be
able to access to my usual /home/MyNISAccount (automounted from my
fileserver) with the right UID and GID from my NIS passwd/group files.

The problem is that I just can't login directly from the graphical login
interface?

NIS seems to work well on the system since I can do a "ypcat passwd" without
any problems.

Any clues? Nibody?

thnx

If you want a quick and easy solution, try http://www.squirrelmail.org.

If you want to write your own :-), here are the steps I'd follow:

   1. Install an IMAP server.
   2. Study the JavaMail API at http://java.sun.com
   3. Study WebStart, the new application launch protocol in JDK 1.4.
   Use this to write a downloadable app.

  OR
  Load a JSP host like TomCat at http://www.apache.org, then write
  JSP pages using the JavaMail API.
   4. Release the code to public domain.

mysql and glibc-2.2.5-40 bug

[Jon Cooper]

Just for our own sanity we tested this out on a clean 7.3 box.
We started with a clean RH7.3 install, installed mysql via up2date.
In mysql we reset the admin password and set the user table to allow
connections from everywhere.
At this point we can make a connection to the box on 3306 and everything
works as expected.

We ran an up2date which included the new glibc update (2.2.5-40) and then
restarted the mysql daemon.
At this point we are unable to make a remote connection to the server on
3306 and the mysql process is very unstable.  The mysql process will seg
fault under even low load.  If a large query is thrown at it, it will die
almost instantly.  These are the entries that show up in the mysql log:

Number of processes running now: 3
mysqld process hanging, pid 7626 - killed
mysqld process hanging, pid 7626 - killed
mysqld process hanging, pid 7626 - killed
021005 09:58:41  mysqld restarted
021005  9:58:41  Can't start server: Bind on TCP/IP port: Address already in
use
021005  9:58:41  Do you already have another mysqld server running on port:
3306 ?
021005  9:58:41  Aborting
021005  9:58:41  /usr/libexec/mysqld: Shutdown Complete
021005 09:58:41  mysqld ended

If we roll back to the previous version of glibc (2.2.5-39) everything
starts working properly again.
We have also seen this same behavior on a fresh 8.0 install, which must
include the same changes to glibc.

Has anyone else seen these same problems and come up with a different
workaround or solution.  We tried this with a fresh system just to make sure
that this had nothing to do with our data.  

Jon

Red Hat Sounds problems

[Mike Khzar]

I recently installed Red Hat Linux 8.0 and it works superbly, aside from a 
single bug which is more or less annoying me. Every time I attempt to play 
music, be it mp3 or from an Audio CD, something goes wrong. If I am trying 
to open an mp3 or audio file using Konqueror, the browser shuts down and 
tells me that the program had to be closed because of a bug. Should I try to 
play the said files using the Audio Player, it will act as if I had given it 
no command. Lastly, when trying to use the CD Player, the program would 
severely lag without any progress.

Would anyone have any suggestions out there as to my fixing the problem? 
Please note that my sound cards (one inbuilt and one attached by a PCI slot) 
both work and both play Linux sounds. Thanks in advance.

Since the technology in MPEG 2 Layer 3 audio is patented, and not
compatible with the GPL, leaving no valid license on most of the players
in question, it's reasonable that they also had to be removed.

Sawfish isn't gone;  it's just not in the default install.  Given the
spartan nature of Metacity, I wouldn't expect Sawfish to ever simply
disappear.  Long-time users of Unix wouldn't like that much.

Sawfish is still on the CD's, though it's sort of a pain to actually get
running in place of metacity.

Re: kickstart install using nfs

[Jeff Bearer]

Your second thought is the way you will want to go, the README file on
each cd tells you the specifics.  You can also put the ISO files in a
NFS directory and that is supposed to work also, I read that somewhere.

I use the directory method over the ISO method because it's easier to
get to the individual RPM files if I need them when I'm not installing.

And obviously you will need to use the bootnet.img with your kickstart
file.

Install a newer version of "mount" on the client?  Get the one from 7.3
and see if that corrects the problem.  I'd thought that was required,
but I don't see an errata package for mount on RH's site.

Not exactly. The web part will have a "www" in from of the domain, while the 
mail domains will be plain.
So Edwards' answer was correct.

kickstart install using nfs

I'm planning on trying to do some kickstart installs using an nfs mounted CD

and that html was bad I would have gladdly found the switch to turn it off.
Hopefully this email is in text and will offend on one.

pps.  As annoying to me as bad formatting are the political stances and
statements at the end of an email.  This isn't a political forum.

Good day and thank you again for your time.

Reliable NFS?

[Ashley M. Kirchner]

I want to NFS mount two servers onto a third on and have them work in
tandem.  How reliable is?  Basically what I want to do is have one server which
will host all the websites for my users, another server which will be the mail
spool for everyone, and the third machine will be their actual shell server
where they log in at.  I need to have a stable platform for all my users, and
not have NFS timeouts, and or dropouts.  Unmounting a dead NFS mount seems to
be a problem to where one has to reboot a server to fix that - has this been
resolved in some way or another?  What do people recommend using?

All servers are running RH 7.3 + updates.

RE: no mysql connections after up2date

ext3 journal options

[Paul Raines]

I can't seem to get RH 7.3 running 2.4.18-10 to take the journal data
options for the ext3 filesystem:

[root@smithers root]# head -1 /etc/mtab
/dev/hda2 / ext3 rw 0 0
[root@smithers root]# mount -o remount,data=journal /
mount: / not mounted already, or bad option

Same problem if I put data=journal in the /etc/fstab.

You have two options that I know of:

1. If you are re-building from the Red Hat supplied config files, you
will more than likely need to do the mkinitrd. What happens is that
there are pieces of the kernel necessary for booting (device drivers)
that are compiled as modules. You will notice, however, that your
loadable modules are not in the /boot partition. I don't know the exact
constraints on what can and can't be done during boot, but any other
partition will be unavailable. The mkinitrd makes certain modules
available during the boot process. When you use mkinitrd, you must give
it the name of the image to produce, and the version of the kernel to
use as its source. The name you specify as the image must match what you
use in your lilo.conf or menu.lst, and the initrd file must be in your
boot partition. Check your existing lilo or grub config files for
examples of how to specify it. Read the man page for mkbootdisk and you
will see that it takes care of the initrd for you as well.

2. Build a kernel that includes all of the necessary drivers not as
modules but compiled-in to the kernel. If you build a custom kernel that
does not include the many modules that support hardware you don't have
and selectively includes drivers necessary for booting, you will get a
faster kernel build, a smaller /lib/modules directory, and not have to
deal with the initrd.

Well here over in Germany not all folks have DSL or ISDN. Some of us 
still use plain old analog modems and downloading HTML-content via 
eMail takes a lot of time.

There is no significant reason for me to write HTML in eMails (or 
Newsgroup-Postings). As well as there is no significant reason for me 
to write my comment on top of a message leaving the rest of the email 
intact (fullquote).

I am too long to eMail and News to know that the users are increasing 
too fast for me to teach them proper use of eMail.

HTML in eMail for me is a security risk (ok that's for the 
Windows-Folks ;-) ) but imho it should be forbidden.

But well its my freedom just to block text/html on my PC mounting 
those stuff to /dev/null :-D

Folks sending eMails in HTML _and_ Plain Text have nothing to say to 
me. They do not work with their programs and they do not read anything 
about the risks a.s.o.

Just my 0,02 ¤

I haven't tried it yet in 8.0 but in 7.x you had to comment out all the

I did exactly the steps you listed except that I copied the plugin to
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins instead of linking it.  If I do "about:plugins"
in mozilla, it shows the java plugin as installed and ready.  However,
java doesn't work.  I'll try again with the symlink.

Another posted said he was also having problems with 1.4.1, but that
java 1.3.0 from Sun worked.  I'll post my results back after some more
testing.

This will happen if you *copy* the plugin to the mozilla plugins directory. You
have to make a symbolic link in the mozilla plugins for everything to work
properly.

Hi Keith,
I am in agreement with you on this. I also am on a half dozen or so
lists, and I find that the incident rate of html mail on redhat
lists is significantly higher. In fact, it has become so irritating
that I flag it as spam and bin it. The only other thing that is as
irritating as html mail are the people who erase the subject line and
type in a new subject and mess up threading.
I have to say that I have reached the point where I believe these people
deserve the mailer that they use.

Kind Regards,
Dallam

Installation Probs on 8.0

[Barry Willett]

Title: Message



Hello - I've been 
having one problem every time I've tried installing RH 8.0.  The install 
process actually goes fine.  I install onto hdb, install the bootloader 
onto hdb1, and then create a bootdisk.  After the install is done, I 
attempt to boot into RH using the boot disk and every time, it hangs at a 
process: INIT: Version 2.84 loading.
 
I'm not sure what 
the problem is here.  I'm unable to even get into RH to be able to 
configure anything.  My config is as follows:
 
AMD Athlon 
600
384 MB 
memory
NVidia GeForce 4 
MX420
SoundBlaster 
Audigy
2 40GB hard 
drives
12x/8x/32x 
CDRW
DVD-ROM
...
 
Any suggestions or 
comments?  Thanks...
 
Barry

RH8, NIS and X login window?

[Vincent . Fortier1]

Hi there,

I just reinstalled from scratch my workstation and reconfigured my station
with NIS like I usually did on my 7.x system.. The wierd thing is that I can
do an "su - NIS-user" but can't login directly from the login screen...

When I do a manual "su" my /home/NIS-user drive gets automounted correctly
and I can work like usual.. but I just can't login directly from the X login
window??

Having any clues? anybody?

thnx

- vin

Re: Alternate window manager in Gnome?

[Todd A. Jacobs]

Well, I still can't figure out how to make metacity behave like a decent
window manager, but I finally figured out how to replace it. (What was Red
Hat thinking when they took away the nice little window manager
configuration applet?)

Anyway, the trick is to define the WINDOW_MANAGER environment variable in 
your .bash_profile so that gnome-session will use that program instead of 
the (evil, evil!) default.

Of course, you'll have to log out and back in again for that to take 
effect. Alas, I'm not sure how to switch wm's within the current session, 
but this is most definitely still progress.

Alternate window manager in Gnome?

[Todd A. Jacobs]

I've been unable to find a capplet for changing the default window manager 
in Gnome under 8.0. The window-minimizing animation is driving me batty, 
but I can't seem to find a place to edit that, either. 

Metacity seems to have zero documentation: no man pages, no info 
pages, and no FAQ on ye olde home page. Anyone figured this horrible thing 
out yet--especially the part of how one gets rid of it without having to 
dump gnome, too?

if you have RH8.0 specific questions, you should seriously
consider joining that list: [EMAIL PROTECTED]  there's
already been an extensive discussion of nvidia there, and the
consensus is that everything seems to work fine.

Nvidia Support in RH8?

[linuxusr]

How is support in RH8 for Nvidia MX400 (GeForce 2) cards?
 Do I still have to junp through hoops to get this card's
acceleration to work?

up2date vs. apt

[juaid]

Hi

I've seen that Debian's apt tool has been ported to rpm

Which advantages or disadvantages do you see to each of them?
I use apt in some Debian boxes here at work, and up2date in Red Hat boxes..

I see that with apt I could build my own repository, and make local upgrades
easily from that repository, so that's an advantage...

any comments?

thanks in advance,

juaid

Re: RED HAT 7.3 installation

[Teodor Georgiev]

Go to ftp.redhat.com and make the RH installation boot disks (2), 1.44 FDD.
boot from them, they will load the CD drivers, and then put the RH CD.
it will be detected and the installation will go from this source.
