      It's been great to see the release of new Linux versions over the =
past few weeks. Whether you use their products or not, the commitment of =
Suse, Mandrake, and RedHat to continued inprovements in Linux. The OS =
that Linus created for fun continues to improve in many ways, providing =
powerful tools, solving complex problems, and bringing general computer =
fun to more and more users each day.

      However, with that growth comes some problems. All three major new =
distros have also released a slew of security and bugfixes. In Mandrake, =
these errata include updates to:


        a.. tcpdump=20
        b.. rm=20
        c.. iptables=20
        d.. libsafe=20
        e.. imlib=20
        f.. sudol=20
        g.. squid=20
      RedHat has produced the following patches since the release of =
Valhalla:


        a.. Updated Mozilla packages=20
        b.. Perl-digest fixes=20
        c.. Netfilter fix=20
        d.. Updated mod_python packages=20
      Suse has released quite a list of patches. You can find it here. =
They have a longer window since their most recent release, so the fact =
that this is a pretty sizeable patch list in comparison to the other is =
to be expected.

      All in all, though, these releases appear to be stable =
well-planned improvements on the previous versions from all three. You =
might think a bit differently if you've subscribed to any of the distro =
specific mailing lists - there's a lot of bickering and bantering about =
one problem or the other. But, the truth is, it all seems to be a matter =
of not seeing the proverbial forest for the trees. Overall, Linux =
continues to grow in a very impressive way. There are considerably fewer =
post-release problems than even just a year or two ago. I mean, need I =
really mention RedHat 7.0?

      It is, indeed, a good time to be a Penguin.

      XF86Config - Part XII

      Today, we're continuing our look at the Device section of =
XF86Config. Bear in mind when reading today's installment that many of =
the subsections described are special-use cases, rarely needed for the =
common user or common hardware. But, I promised you a thorough look at =
the XF86Config file, so we'll mention these subsections with the above =
caveat.

      BIOSBase subsection:
      This is a necessary section of XF86Config if your video card =
requires a starting I/O address. This should be in hex form (0x...) and =
is most often used for onboard cards.

      MemBase subsection:
      The MemBase subsection defines the base address for the linear =
frame buffer device within your video card. The most common server that =
may require this subsection is the Mach64 X server, used for many ATI =
cards. This is irrelevant to all cards not utilizing linear frame =
buffering.

      IOBase subsection:
      The IOBase subsection can be used to define the base address of =
the video card. Again, this is a rarely-required parameter, but may be =
useful in the event that you encounter card-related problems. The base =
address for a PCI add-on card can be found in the results of the more =
/proc/pci command.

      Much thought and care has gone into the development of XF86Config. =
But then again, you can see why with all the elements an X server must =
know and keep track of to build a pretty GUI.

      Dumps

      As you spend more time in Linux, you're invariably going to =
encounter a core dump. It happens for any number of reasons, of which =
the most common is a poorly-written program. If you're a programmer, you =
probably already run into more than you care to count. Dumps, regardless =
of the reasons they occur, are a part of Linux.

      Core dumps will be found in the directory from which the dumping =
program was running. These are files called core that contain the state =
of the program at the time it failed. To prgrammers, core dumps can be =
very useful in debugging an in-development program. A key diagnostic =
tool for assessing the cause of a program failure via core dumps is gdb. =
By executing the command

          gdb name of program core

      you'll be able to examine the state of the program at the time of =
the dump. This can point you precisely in the direction of a solution to =
the program's failure.

      For most users, however, core dumps are more of a nusiance than a =
tool. Given that the core file contains every element of the program's =
state at the time of failure, these files can be huge. If you find a =
core file in a directory on your system, you can safely delete it =
without concern.

      Unless, that is, you just like the little bright yellow bomb icon =
with the x'ed out eyes.

      Dynamic DNS Alternatives
      Scribbled by Cesar Mendoza

      "I used to have problems with my DSL connection with QWest, so =
what I did was create a little perl script to monitor the external ip =
address on the modem and when the ip address changed It would reset the =
nat rules and send me an email with the new address.

      Linux Center

      The Linux Center is a portal site with hundreds of links to other =
Linux-related sites and information. It's very well-organized, breaking =
out the main index into such categories as Applications, System, =
Politics, and Distributions. I found the Politics category especially =
interesting, with subcategories for Anti-Monopolies site, People and The =
Open Source Model. The Linux center is definitely a good source of =

      <P><B>Dumps</B>
      <P>As you spend more time in Linux, you're invariably going to =
encounter a=20
      core dump. It happens for any number of reasons, of which the most =
common=20
      is a poorly-written program. If you're a programmer, you probably =
already=20
      run into more than you care to count. Dumps, regardless of the =
reasons=20
      they occur, are a part of Linux.
      <P>Core dumps will be found in the directory from which the =
dumping=20
      program was running. These are files called <B>core</B> that =
contain the=20
      state of the program at the time it failed. To prgrammers, core =
dumps can=20
      be very useful in debugging an in-development program. A key =
diagnostic=20
      tool for assessing the cause of a program failure via core dumps =
is=20
      <B>gdb</B>. By executing the command
      <P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;gdb <I>name of program</I> core
      <P>you'll be able to examine the state of the program at the time =
of the=20
      dump. This can point you precisely in the direction of a solution =
to the=20
      program's failure.
      <P>For most users, however, core dumps are more of a nusiance than =
a tool.=20
      Given that the core file contains every element of the program's =
state at=20
      the time of failure, these files can be huge. If you find a core =
file in a=20
      directory on your system, you can safely delete it without =
concern.
      <P>Unless, that is, you just like the little bright yellow bomb =
icon with=20
      the x'ed out eyes.
