Subject: A Howto: CDR audio (CDB: 5B etc... error)
This post was originaly intended for LG and Goldstar drives, however, it
should be attempted by everyone who has been having problems writing audio
cds with cdrecord.......
To everyone who has been asking on this forum, it is possible to write
audio CDs from wav files on the LG and Goldstar CED-8081B drives using
cdrdao, not cdrecord, here's how...
1. You must be using .cdr or .wav files, for those writing from MP3
(ahem) this script will work for you...
============================
#!/bin/sh
for i in "$@"
do
mpg123 --cdr - "$i" > "$i".cdr
done
============================
2. Get hold of the wav2dao perl script from
http://www.daszler.de/linux/wav2dao.
2.1 Make it executable
3. Get cdrdao from
http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/
3.1 Compile cdrdao
4. ./wav2dao.pl -n -o mycd.toc *.cdr
5. cdrdao write --device 0,1,0 --driver generic-mmc --speed 8 --buffers
256 my
cd.toc
Obviously the devices need to be changed to reflect your system.
Hope that this helps everyone ;)
Regards
Dan

Had about the same problem with the chip on my Epox board. One day I

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I just got one of the MS Explorer Trackballs and have most of the stuff
working on it and have been digging around a bit. The trackball has two
button and a wheel on the left side, a ball in the middle, and two buttons
on the right.
I would like to remap the mousepress on the second button to one of the
outer buttons for a little easier way to bring up the menu items in my
windowmanager (wmaker 0.65). I have modified my /etc/X11/XFConfig-4 file
appropriately to use the mouse and have imwheel working.
How can I remap keypress events to the outer buttons? Is this a xmodmap
function? Can I have two buttons on the explorer do the same thing? Can
button 2 or 3 be mapped to an outside button and call up context menus?
Thanks.

I bought a machine from thelinuxstore.com about a year ago
(Element-L Hadron: Celeron/500) and I recently (accidentally) nuked my
kernel modules configuration. For the life of me, I can't remember
nor figure out what module I should be using for the built-in 10/100
ethernet card. In desperation, I tried loading, in order, all the
modules in /lib/modules/.../net/, and the e2100 driver loaded and gave
me an eth0 device that I can bring up with 'ifconfig eth0 up', but it
give me a funny error (SIGIOACCDR, I think) when I try to add the
default route through it.
Does anyone have one of these systems? Could you help, please?
Sorry for the kind of lame, vague request. If I could find the manual
I'd use it :(. I'm running a slightly-updated Debian 2.2, in case
anyone cares.

I noticed from your hardware discription that it is a gateway
computer. Is the SBLive! the digital one that comes with the gateway?
or a standalone pci card? The reason I ask is 'cause if it's the
SBLive! digital that comes onboard with the gateway it probably won't
work ;-( If it's not, and it's a SBLive! that you bought seperatly
then it will work. The reason is there is something flaky about the
gateway card, I read this on the opensource.creative.developers
mailing list. I strongly suggest that you goto
http://opensource.creative.com and follow the links on subscribing to
the email list for this card. I personally have the SBLive!, bought
from compusa, and it is a very very good card, so all this won't be a

Piece of cake, assuming you're running Win98, WinMe or Win2K, which
include Internet Connection Sharing.
You'll need two NICs in your windoz machine. Bring the raw internet
connection into the Windoz machine via the first NIC, and let it
manage the internet connection. Attach your LAN (in this case, your
Linux machine) to the second NIC. Under Windoz, Setup Internet
Connection Sharing on the Internet connected NIC.
ICS will act as a DHCP server, a gateway, and a DNS server for all
your machines on the other NIC (your LAN.)

Hi.
I'm building a server. After doing some research, I've decided
(for now) on the server hardware. I'd like to know if the hardware is
adequate
and if Linux will support it reasonably well. Below, I list what I've
chosen
for now, what we'll run on server, then some questions.
Hardware:
- ASUS A7M266 motherboard.
- AMD Athlon 1.3GHz 384kb cache, socket A, T-BIRD 266MHz.
- Adaptec 3200S RAID controller PCI to U160 w/32MB SDRAM 80MIPS 64bit.
Adaptec 64MB ECC SO-DIMM for the RAID controller.
Adaptec battery backup for 3200S RAID.
- Two Seagate Cheetah hard drives: 18.4GB, Ultra 160 SCSI, 10K RPM,
3.5LP.
- Toshiba 40X SCSI CD-ROM (XM-6401B).
- EtherPower II 10/100 PCI network card.
- Viewsonic Q71-5 Optiquest monitor: 17in/16.0v, 27mm, 1280X1024, 87Hz.
- MATROX Millenium G200 AGP 8 MB video card.
- Two 256 MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM ECC.
- Seagate Scorpion DAT drive (DDS-3).
- UPS- Probably Tripp Lite Smart Online 1000 (SU1000RT2U) with battery
pack.
(or Invensys Fortress or possibly Patriot II)
What we'll run:
- Debian GNU/Linux 2.2r3.
- RAID 1.
- Our ssl server will be running a modperl application with
reads and writes to db. We're most concerned about stability and
reliablity of hardware (and software!)-- especially during peak periods.
Of course, we'd like it to run reasonably fast as well.
Questions:
- Will the hardware I've chosen run well under Debian Linux?
- Does linux (and Debian) support Tripp Lite UPS? What packages--
genpower? upsd? powstatd? Or is Fortress of Patriot II better supported
under linux (and debian)?
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

I just installed a K6-2 500. There are two numbers on the CPU. The
first one is 2.2v, and that refers to the "Core Voltage", which is what
the MB needs to be set at. I had to scratch my head as well since there
were two markings, and my MB (FIC 503+) supports the CPU, but no 3.3v.

why not use one card and use an ip alias. I have 2 machines mandrake 8
and a RH7.1. the mandrake has one nic with 2 ip's. one ip is dhcp for the dsl
connection the other one is static for the proxy server for the redhat machine
to use as a gateway to the internet. Linuxconf is easy to use to set up ip alias.
The nic in the Mandrake machine uses the tulip driver. can't remember the

IIRC, the Internet Connection Sharing feature was not in the original Win98.
It was in Win98SE, but it was not available through microsoft automatic update
