Hi all,
I was going to buy NEC SuperScript 860 printer. So I looked at the
printer drivers and did not see one that match this. Can this printer be
used in Linux? If so, how/what should I use in terms of driver? Here is
spec for this printer:

Hi.
I've been using Slackware for a wgile and decided it's now time to switch
over to Debian.
I've booted off the boot disk w/ "linux aha152x=0x340,11,7,1" - similar to
what I needed for Slackware to recognize my CDROM.
I installed the cdrom module and the sr_mod module. When it comes time to

Hi,
I have noticed that xconsolo stops logging any kernel messages when the daily
cron scripts get run and the current /var/log/messages file gets renamed to
/var/log/messages.0 and a new one gets created. Is this something normal or
is there anything I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
Luis.

Unmount the disk with problems, and run "/sbin/e2fsck -f /dev/hd??".
Fill in the device name as appropriate. Check for bad memory (I know,
that's shotgunning the problem, but it turns up a lot) and other
hardware problems.
Indeterminate behavior is generally an indication of a hardware problem.

Hi
Recently I upgraded my PC hardware, from a VL BUS to
a PCI board. After this change and with an on board IDE, I have
received some error messages about ext2.
In order to check the file system, I ran e2fsck even with
the -c flag and some problems were reported as corrected.

In libwww-perl there is a command GET that makes the trick.
If you have a squid proxy, you can read it next time directly from

There are generally two possible errors:

that are opening a few files each)
or a single process (like apache) can open 256 files (this is the de
