You have to install make, gcc and gcc+ package (rpm).

I've got an older HP 837 system that I would like to experiment with
putting Linux (Caldera 1.3) on. It only has a couple gig hard drive and
about 65M memory, but I just want to try it out and get a feel for linux
and apache. Does anyone know if Linux will run on a 800 model and since
I am new at this can you point me to any good resources/cook books etc.
Appreciate it,
Please copy my email address with your reply

Hello gentleman,
I just want to add, that NS-series tape drives have
one more difference from TR drives - Read-While-Write
capability (like DAT and 8mm do), i.e. secondary
tape pass for verifying isn't required; the head
contains read channel for immediate error detection.

Does the computer have any IDE hard drives? If it does have IDE drives,
have you told the BIOS to boot the SCSI drive? If you have done this,
you need to create entries in your lilo.conf file to swap the drives --
disk = /dev/sda <--- or whatever your SCSI hard drive is
bios = 0x80
disk = /dev/hda <--- or whatever your IDE hard drive is
bios = 0x81
I think this should go in the global section (I did it just last week,
but it was my computer at home and I'm not there right now...)

Hi folks, I'm trying to find a Linux driver for a Vivitar MPP2 camera. Does a
such thing exists ? is the MPP2 compatible with something else (quickcam ?)
If no, where can I get the protocol specification in order to write a driver
?
Thanks in advance for your help !

The problem is your LS-120. Have you been able to read floppy disks
from it? If no. It'll involve recompiling your kernel with IDE/FLOPPY
support (I think). This will allow Linux to see your LS-120 and use
it. You'll need to download the kernel source from
ftp://ftp.xx.kernel.org (where xx is the country code US=us
Germany=de). The latest stable kernel version is 2.0.36
Your /usr/doc/HOWTO directory cotains howtos on a lot of
things. One of the is the Kernel howto. Please read it for
instructions on how to compile your kernel.
If you do have your LS-120 working. Your BOIS needs to check the
floppy as a boot device ie. If a disk is in there boot from the disk
rather then the harddrive. Next you'll need to install a kernel onto
it. Maybe even lilo.

This is not a great reason for choosing a resolution. If the fonts

Subject: 3c905B running DHCP in Red Hat 5.1
Date: Mon, 04 Jan 1999 09:36:56 -0600
Hi,
I am trying to bring my 3com 3c905B ethernet card up to run
with DHCP in Red Hat 5.1. However, in /var/log/messages, I
am seeing an entry by the dhcp client daemon saying "no
DHCPOFFER messages".
I then turned on the debugging option on the driver,
the following fhowed up after I typed dmesg.
Can anyone help me debug this? It seems like the driver
is trying to send packets, but after a number of tries,
it sets the card to promiscuous mode and then it seems
like the driver just went down w/ all the packets still
in its transmit queue.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Winston

Yup. I already did that. Tried resetting jumpers and stuff (for some
reason, my hda was jumpered as single, not master, though the cdrom is
on hdb, but it worked fine all along). Changing this had no
effect. As i wrote, I also tried switching off the second ide channel
via bios setup, but this made no difference either. At one moment I
also had a second HDD on the second channel as master, I tried
reconnecting the cdrom as second slave, and then the HDD's as master
and slave on channel one, and cdrom on channel two -- no dice. As you
see, I tried basically all ide options.

The dmesg is identical every time (well, up to fsck after when I'm
forced to reboot hard). No SCSI devices. fd works fine. Partition
check is OK. All partitions mount successfully.

Not too many devices to check. All IRQ settings are absolutely
standard. I will double check, but the only other thing I have is a
soundcard with standard SB settings that doesn't get initialized until
rc.local runs isapnp (sound is in module). The kbd gets hosed long
before that.
