Hi,
Lately, netscape has been crashing on my linux machine: p166mmx, 64 mb
ram, mandrake 5.3, kernel 2.2.6, netscape communicator 4.08 (the one
that comes with mandrake 5.3). It dies with a "bus error" message in
the xterm from which it was launched. What is this bus error? Thanks,
Hidong

Many thanks, will check this out this evening or afternoon hopefully

I upgraded from 2.2.3 to 2.2.5 without upgrading initscript and modutils, but
you need to upgrade these packages when upgrading from 2.0x.

I also get this message from kppp, but I get it as root. When I try a second
time it connects without problems. this was since I upgraded to kernel 2.2.5.

Well, apart from doubling the phone bill it works. I never had this problem in
Win95 though.

To find info on your motherboard look for screen printed ID numbers on the
board. It may say430 TX ver. 2.3 or some other such string of
characters. Write this down, then look at the chips (black and square) on
the motherboard. One of them should have the SiS 55xx identifier. Write

Hi all,
Had my Linux Mandrake up and running on my Pii but for family reasons
need to switch to a box that is using what appears to be a TXProII
Motherboard. This has built in Video Card SiS 5597/5598 (according to
Windows) and sound card. I dont think that the sound card will be a
problem tho. It
go back to linux mandrake site, where you signed up for it, and
see if that helps.

Same reason I needed to use bzImage--I don't know where the size limit
comes in, or why. However, the size of t

I guess its time to tackle my first problem. I have to boot from a floppy.
I used a separate, spare HDD to load with Linux Mandrake 5.3. I created
the boot floppy at install time. I think I am running into the 1024
Cylinder problem. On this 540+MB HD I made one big partition, about 490

Yes, I'm afraid it's quit
Yeah, I would say that within a month or two there will be something more
substantial for USB. Kernels are coming out once a week. This will give
you time to poke around and figure out how everything else works.

HI Pat,
Sounds like good advice , to me.
BTW, I just installed PQ Boot magic, over riding the MBR, and LiLO.
I did this purposely as I am more familiar with it rather than lilo.
Now I can get it to boot the LInux for me.
Win98 as default is fine.
Since I overwrote the MBR, I am assuming the linus

I've never used the format /mbr, but I can vouch for fdisk /mbr. :)

Hi,
I'm affraid Mandrake doesn't have any USB support 'right out of the
box'. In fact, Linux doesn't have USB support at all for the moment
unless you compile your own kernel (at least version 2.2.7 (stable) or
2.3.3 (development).
Keep in mind that USB support in Linux is still very BETA and th

In this case, you have to compile the kernel yourself; you'll also need to
