[SOLVED] insmod rio500.o fails

2000-10-05 Thread Alan Mead
A search for rio500.o found a page listing dependencies suggested that I needed to load usbcore.o first, which solved the problem. So anyone have the rio 500 working? I only had a moment but rio_stat couldn't connect. Also, is there a way I should have loaded the module that would have

Do you have the USB code backport? Doesn't look like it since you're running a RH version of 2.2.16. The unresolved symbols mean that you don't have something else installed.. in this case: USB support. The message from sourceforge tells you everything you need to know. On Thu, 5 Oct 2000, Alan

After upgradeing my RPM package to a newer version I can't install any RPMs. How would I go back to the old version of RPM without losing RPM altogether. Seems to me that it'd be kinda hard to install a new version of RPM from an .rpm file if RPM isn't installed or working. Can you get RPM in

Yes, apache needs be able to see those pages to serve them. And apache runs as nobody which has no special power to read files. You could run apache as root but that's a significantly risky solution; not the kind of thing one does on a tight ship. You might be able to add nobody to each group
