Subject: staroffice install problem?
Date: 30 Mar 1999 23:18:29 GMT
hi. i'm in an attempt to use linux more and more as a deskop machine and
windows less and less. unfortunately, it's been hard as i keep running
into problems. today i'm trying to install staroffice. i installed
glibc2 by using gldrinst force. then started x windows and ran ./setup
/net. it starts running, but then i get:
libsvt506li.so : Bad CRC d6e99574 (should be 07422e34)
./setup: Could not unpack file '/tmp/sv002.tmp/setup.zip'
i'm not too sure how to resolve this. the first line obviously sounds
like a corrupted file, although i don't know what that file. . i'm not
too sure about the second line...hopefully related to the first so when i
get that fixed the 'setup.zip' error will disappear, too.
anyway, i'm running slackware 3.6 on a machine w/ 24 megs of ram, an 800
meg hard drive (about 500 megs on the / partition with 100 megs free,
300 megs on the /home partition w/ about 200 free and about 64M on the
swap partition). i'll probably need more HD space for staroffice, but i
don't think this is causing the problem as there's a still 83Megs free
after installation crashes. anyway...does anyone have any suggestions on
getting this to install? thanks.

I am running a dual boot with Windows 98 and Linux on the same drive. I
have 3 separate partitions - one for DOS, one for Linux, and an empty
one. In DOS, drive C: is for DOS, but how can I figure out which DOS
drive Linux is on -- either drive D: or drive E: ?
Thanks!

Hi Erik,
you can see this by cat /proc/interrupts, and it is also useful to
try setserial -g /dev/ttyS*
Some interrupts are not reported if corresponding devices are
not in use... I do not know the details.

A MUCH lower error rate.
Try replacing the cables.
(And, yes, you can see assymetric failures with bad twisted pair cables,
since one pair is Tx and one is Rx, the system with the icky Rx pair
will have problems receiving, though less problems sending.)
You may also want to see why you're running in promiscuous mode: that
will generate a LOT of extra interrupts (though not too bad on a
two-machine LAN).

I'd have to agree with you there, though some early word processors
and today's better text editors are very alike. I'd still rather use
the copy of WordStar I was using back in the mid-eighties than vi.

Hi all,
I am wondering if there is a documentation somewhere about using C++ under
Linux. I have found documentation about using gcc/g++, but it is about
compiler features and not language features. A simple example (not the only
question) is the alternative of Borland's "clrscr" command. Where can I find
specific features like these? I am sure a lot of people know otherwise we
wouldn't have all these wonderful Linux programs :)
Please feel free to suggest a good book.

Hi,
I installed a second ethernet card on a linux microserver. When I type
dmesg, I see that the Kernel is aware of and loaded the driver for that
ethernet card. When I type ifconfig, there is nothing about eth1, that is
the second ethernet card I have installed!
Any ideas what I should do?

Ben...
You obviously know your stuff, so I hoped you might be able to help with a
nohup issue I'm having. Under RedHat Linux, I've tried lots of tests to get
nohup working for me to run a task after I logoff, but with no success. For
example...
nohup ping www.yahoo.com &
...runs in the background and creates nohup.out as it should, but when I
disconnect -- either by hanging up or exiting -- the task is stopped as if
I weren't using nohup. Do you have ideas as to what's going wrong?
Thanks very much...

But I use mc's text editor and am perfectly happy with it.
Out of interest, as you sound like you use emacs a lot, what do you

I don't think it's a case of there's one born every minute. Until
very recently the typical business didn't have a choice. Linux only
recently came on the scene as an OS ready for business use (though
not yet, in my opinion, for all forms of business computing) and NT
is way cheaper than commercial brands of Unix.
Yes, hard as it is to believe, for some years NT was the low-cost
option!

I had the same problem with my LAN a while back. I trashed all the windows

like that. I don't have any window clients to verify the exact settings at the
moment, but just fiddle with the proxy/firewall settings. it was PASSV or
passive, or something similar to that. Good luck, and remember, if you were to

There are a series (Generic series) of precompiled kernel/server pairs put
together by a group of individuals that build upon DR3. They have gotten
IP Masquerading to work in the more recent versions. They also include
numerous bug fixes and more hardware support. Go to:
http://globegate.utm.edu/MkLinux/
They've got their source tree available via CVS if you're interested in
compiling your own kernels.
They also have a new web site up specifically geared towards MkLinux.
This sight is still under development, but it does have useful info.
http://www.mklinux.org/
For example, they have info on just what you're interested in at:

Well, when I use kmail to retrieve mail directly from the POP3 server,
