I recently installed Caldera 2.4 on a system with Windows. My USB Microsoft
optical mouse works in Windows but not in LINUX. Can anyone tell me where
to look for help in this matter?
Thank you in advance for any help.
Sincerely,

First of all, please trim down the list of newsgroups. Note the F'Up.
Second, are there any log-messages that might indicate WHY some drives
failed?

Dial-Up Networking Errors
Here are some of the more common Dial-Up Networking Errors:
Error 629
After you install Windows 98 Second Edition, the 128-bit data
encryption won't work, and you will get this error message when you
attempt to create a Dial-Up Networking (DUN) connection that uses 128-
bit data encryption:
Error 629: You have been disconnected from the computer you dialed.
Double-click the connection to try again.
If you try to (re)install the 128-bit version of the Windows 98 Dial-Up
Networking Security Upgrade (Msnt128.exe) file, you are unable to do
so. When you double-click the Msnt128.exe file, you receive the 128 bit
encryption for Dial-Up Networking (Not for Export) dialog box. When you
click OK, you quit the Msnt128.exe program.
This is caused because Windows 98 Second Edition includes a newer
version of the 40-bit DUN files that replace the 128-bit DUN files.
You can get a new 128-bit DUN Security Upgrade for Windows 98 Second
Edition when Microsoft makes it available. To see if the 128-bit DUN
Security Upgrade for Windows 98 Second Edition is available, view the
following Microsoft Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/Support/NTServer/128Eula.asp
Note that after accepting the License Agreement, the list of 128-bit
software is available.
Error 630
When you try to start Dial-Up Networking, you receive the following
error message:
Error 630: The computer is not receiving a responsefrom the modem.
Check that the modem is plugged in,and if necessary, turn the modem
off,and then turn it back on.
Communication port is invalid or busy.
This error message can occur if the modem is using a newly detected
serial port installed by Windows 98 hardware detection. If this is the
case, change the properties of the Dial-Up Networking connection to use
the new modem settings.
Programs run at StartUp from the StartUp folder can also cause this
error message.
To temporarily disable programs in the StartUp folder, follow these
steps:
Click Start > Run and in the Open: box, type msconfig, then press OK
In Msconfig click the Startup tab. For programs that may control your
modem, click the program's check box to clear it. If you are not sure
whether or not a specific program should be disabled, click to clear
all of the check boxes except for the following check boxes:
ScanRegistry
TaskMonitor
SystemTray
LoadPowerProfile (is loaded twice normally)
This behavior can also occur if you have the Support SerialKey devices
Accessibility option configured to use the COM port to which your modem
is connected. To resolve this:
Click Start > Settings > Control Panel, and then double-click
Accessibility Options
On the General tab, either:
Click to clear the Support SerialKey devices check box
or
Click Settings, click a different COM port in the Serial port box, and
then click OK
Click OK
When you try to use a 3Com (3C562) EtherLink III LAN + 33.6 Modem PC
Card, you may receive the following error message:
Error 630 modem not responding
This behavior can occur if the registry entry for the PC Card device is
incorrect or damaged. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
Remove the PC Card from the computer
Use Registry Editor to export the following registry key:
HKEY_Local_Machine \ Enum \ PCMCIA
Delete the following registry key:
HKEY_Local_Machine \ Enum \ PCMCIA \ LAN \ Modem
If there is no LAN \ Modem key, delete the PCMCIA key
Shut down Windows 98, and then turn off the computer
Restart the computer
After Windows 98 starts, insert the PC Card and allow Windows 98 to
detect the card
If you receive this error on Windows 98 Second Edition, and you have an
3Com (USR) USB modem, you have 2 options and 1 workaround, until 3Com
releases new drivers:
Option 1: Revert back to Windows 98 (Gold) (uninstall Windows 98 Second
Edition)
Option 2: Install the modem as a serial device
Work-around:
Select Start > Settings > Control Panel
Double-click Modems, and then verify that your modem is listed on the
General tab
Click Diagnostics, select the COM port to which your modem is attached,
and then click More Info
Your modem should now be accessible to other Windows applications for
the remainder of your Windows session.
Note: This will need to be done each time windows has been restarted.
Check the 3Com Web site for further information
Error 633
When you try to start Dial-Up Networking, you receive the following
error message:
Error 633: The modem is not installedor configured for Dial-Up
Networking.To check your modem configuration, double click the
Modemsicon in Control Panel.
This error message can occur if the Telephon.ini file is missing or
damaged. To resolve this issue, please see the following Microsoft
Knowledge Base Articles:
Q191444 (Error Message: The Modem Is Not Installed or Configured
for...)
Q120221 (How to Rebuild the TELEPHON.INI File
Error 645
When you try to connect with Dial-Up Networking (DUN), you may receive
the following error message:
Error 645 - Dial-Up Networking could not complete the connection to the
server.
This is usually caused if the Require encrypted password option is
enabled on the Server Types tab in the connection's properties. Here's
how to fix this:
Select Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > Dial-Up
Networking
Right-click your connection, and choose Properties
Select the Server Types tab, click to clear the Require encrypted
password check box
Click OK
Error 650
When you try to connect, you receive the following error message:
Modem not responding (Error 650). For troubleshooting information,click
Help.
One workaround suggests enabling a post terminal window. Here's how:
Select Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications > Dial-Up
Networking
Right-click your connection, and choose Properties
On the General tab, click the Configure button
Select the Options tab
Place a check-mark in bring up terminal window after dialing
Just press continue when the post terminal window pops up after you
connect.
Another 650 error:
(650) The computer you have dialed does not respond to a network request
You can get this occasionally when your ISP is busy, and they don't
have a free I.P. address to assign to you.
If you are still having problems:
Although it says that it applies to The Microsoft Network version 2.52,
try the solution from Microsofts Knowledge Base Article Q192420.
Error 745
When you try to start Dial-Up Networking, you receive the following
error message:
Error 745: An essential file is missing.Re-install Dial-Up Networking.
This error message can occur when a Dial-Up Networking dynamic-link
library (DLL) file is missing or damaged. To resolve this issue, please
see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article Q174579.
More information on troubleshooting modem problems in Windows 98 can be
found in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article Q190554.

You can mount file systems, but not physical devices. A tape drive
doesn't have a file system on it, therefore you can't mount it. You have
to access it using "tar" or a similar program.

Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2001 10:37:44 +0100
A few month ago I exchanged the mainboard Shuttle HOT591P with an
identical one and now the kernel 2.4-test11 doesn't boot anymore.
Allways I get the following:
ide0: BM-DMA at 0xf000-0xf007, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio
ide0: VIA Bus-Master (U)DMA timing Config Success
ide1: BM-DMA at 0xf008-0xf00f, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio
ide1: VIA Bus-Master (U)DMA timing Config Success
spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7.
and anything is blocked. Where do I have to look for the defective
hardware?
I have an harddisk IMB-DTTA-31351680 on ide0(master) and a CDRom
MATSHITA CR-587 on ide1(slave). The BIOS detects them right, so I can't
think what's wrong.

a tape drive is a sequential access device, hence you cannot mount it.

use mt-st util ar 'amanda' backup software..
the devices for scsi tape are /dev/stx and /dev/nstx where x is the
device number
also be sure to enable tape support in kernel with modules or in kernel
config..

IIRC the Xon/Xoff serial (RS232) lines we used to use (25pin plug!) were
wired:
2 -> 3, 3 -> 2, 7 -> 7
and at each end we shorted pins 4 & 5 and 6, 8 & 20.

Ok. So your having problems getting into your box eh? If you can see
the hard drives via the boot messages that pop up via linux rescue, then
you can mount your hard drives. I.e:
mount -t ext2 <some device> <some mount point>
That'll get your file system mounted. From there, you can try to install
glibc from your CD (you'll probably need to do a force and nodeps in
the options) so that you can boot your machine again. One way (although
this is very hackish) is to copy everything from /lib (which is on the
cd) to the /lib in your mount point and see if you can boot back in.
After your done, unmount it of course.... before you give it the reboot.

you don't mount tape drives but read/write to /dev/st0 or /dev/nst0 (st0
rewinds the tape after access, nst0 does not). To tar a file to tape you
would do a tar cf /dev/st0 filename. Also, read the man page for mt, which
allows you to do things like forward space and backspace the tape.
