so I take it from this post that standard XFree86 cannot handle this
situation?
I've just ran into that problem my self. I'm dual booting NT4 and
Linux(redhat 5.2, 2.2.1 kernel, 3.1.2(shipped w/ redhat))
I added a second matrox millennium card, under NT4 this works dandy,
didn't think that X would screw up the way it did...
I'm currently looking into a commercial server however I would like to
find some sort of work around for this(get both cards to work, or at
least get X to work), both cards are PCI...

Read the kernel source for the driver. It scans a number of I/O ports
in a certain order while trying to find your card.
If this driver runs into anything on an IO port before it finds the
card it can get confused.
I had this problem and I set the card up in NON-PNP mode, then
modified the source for the driver to only search for the hard
configured
settings of the card.
It worked then.
Good Luck.

OK, after reading stuff all day and looking all over the web, I'll say it:
I have no freakin' idea what I'm doing!
Could someone out there outline the steps I need to do in order to get my
network card to work? I downloaded the via-rhine.c file from the Internet
(using my Win98 box :-( ), but no clue as to what happens next. Do I have
to compile a new kernel, compile the driver (.c file), or what?
Thanks, I'll be waiting for an answer.

Hey, I have about 100+ Linux CD's laying around my home and office.
I'll send them out to anyone who wants to start playing around with
linux. Most of these are old Linux CD's .. but very good to get
started if you just want to play. I have the various Distributions:
- OpenLinux Base 1.1
- InfoMagic's Developers Resource (6-CD Set) (very old, 1996
copyright)
- Winter 97 Linux Internet Archives (8 CD Set)
And many, many other individual distributions all on CD. I also have
a big portion of Slackware 3.1 on Diskette for anyone with a really
old, CD-ROM-less computer.
First Come, First Serve. So e-mail me, [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you are
interested.
Thanks,

rm ~/.netscape/lock
try an "nslookup www.yahoo.com"
from the command line. If it doesn't work your
DNS isn't configured right.
Look at "netstat -nr" for your routes.
Look at "/etc/resolv.conf" and try
pinging your nameserver.

And do you have Linux installed or do you have this problem with Windows?
What distribution and version of Linux did you install? Did the installation
program prompt you about your network card during the
installation? And how do you know you have problems with installation
of the network card and not just the network setup?

Just get RedHat 5.2 and install it. I did so, I am a newbie, and my network
works. I did not have to recompile anything. I don't know anything about the
.c file you mention. It seems to me you make it more complicated then
it really is.

Calle,
I experienced a similar problem with the 3c509b. I posted my problem
to some of the Linux newsgroups, and was advised that there might be a
IRQ/IO address conflict between the 3c509 and another device on my
computer. They were right. My problem was that another device was
using the same IRQ as the 3c509. This was NOT noted in
/proc/interrupts. But, when I booted the machine in Windows 98(the
system is dual boot Linux/Win 98), I noticed that another device was
using the same IRQ. I eventually ended up disabling PNP on the card and
specifying an IRQ and IO address, using the MS-DOS utility included with
the card. Donald Becker (the author of the Linux 3c509 driver) has a
page at http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/3c509.html about the
3c5x9 cards. I believe there is a Linux program somewhere around this
site that will allow you to disable PNP, and specify the IRQ/IO address
if doing it from MS-DOS is impractical.
Once I adjusted the settings on the 3c509 and specified the appropriate
options (e.g. irq=3 io=0x300, in my case) for the kernel daemon. The
card worked fine.
Hope this helps.

Hello!
I wonder if anyone can help me? I've just got this nice new machine with an
ATI 3D Rage IIc graphics card (Mach64GT, Internal DAC Type) and can I get it
to run XFree under RedHat 5.2 (apollo)?
Can I heck.
Whatever options I try, I get a lovely screen which is fine vertically-wise,
but there are 4 repeated images horizontally.
All I ask is for 1024x768 in 8bpp on my ADI Microscan 5P. My previous card
(Expercolor DSV) worked fine so I know that it isn't monitor settings that are
screwy, just the card ones.
If anyone has sucessfully got one of these cards running then please could
you let me know because I'm dammed if I know how. If possible I'd appreciate
it if you could email me at:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (remove the Z's)
since I don't check these newgroups as often as I do my mail.

The problem with this scenario is that you put someone (most likely the
gov't) into the role of trying to keep tabs on whether Microsoft
violated the "walls" for as long as Microsoft is in business. How do
you publish a hallway meeting or lunchtime talk?
> In this senario, IE should be an application, not part of the OS, IMHO.
But that is your opinion and, for everyone like you that view IE as an
application, there is probably an equal number that would say that
Microsoft has demonstrated in Windows-98 that putting browser
functionality into the OS makes sense. Its a religious war in the
making and the only way to avoid it is to not get pulled into the
question of which came first -- the OS or the application?

It means, /dev/hdc2 has insecure permissions. 0660 = owner can
read/write group can read/write. 0600 = owner can read/write. do a
'chmod 0600 /dev/hdc2'. 0660 isnt really *too* insecure, as group root
usually only has user root in it anyway, but.. if /dev/hdc2 is owned by
group users.. well, yikes..

Uh, I thought Rock Ridge extensions were for long filenames, and
Joliet was for unicode, or multiple code pages, or some kind of
foreign character thing.

How are the libraries installed, as the primary ones in /lib
or in /usr/local/lib ? If the latter you loose as soon as there
is something running that needs them during shutdown, like the
shell, mount, umount, init.
NLS support, if you enable it for root for instance it is possible
ummount is the one since it opened a message catalog.
You might really try this, telinit 1 or S or switch into single
user mode, then you can see what's still up (not much anymore)
and either use fuser or lsof to see what is going on. lsof might
not be installed on your system but fuser should be.
Cheers,
Juergen

Subject: linux to sgi remote access
Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 00:50:21 GMT
Hi I'm using redhat linux 5.2. I want to remote access to my machine at work.
My work place machine is a sgi workstation with irix 6.5. I'm able to
successfully dial-in from win 98. But I don't know how to do it from linux.
(I'm a newbee and have installed linux just last week on my home pc)
This is what I have tried so far on linux (doesn't work!)
===========================================
1)use netcfg (or the networking icon from the control panel)
2)click on interface tab and fill out my login, passwd and phone no
3) click on the first tab and fill out the domain
4) come back to interface tab and click on activate
5) use ifconfig to find out if the connection takes place
6) use ping <machine name>. It says unknown host error
Could you please help me out. Where should I type in XXXX.com and XXXX1 in
the above settings? (I have substitued XXXX for my company name. XXXX.com and
XXXX1 is explained below. )
the steps I follow to connect from win98 are as follows(works!)
======================================================== Installing
Microsoft's TCP/IP Protocol: Click the Start Button on the task bar, slide up
to Settings and select Control Panel. Double click on the Network icon. The
Network dialog box will appear. Click the Add button, double click on
Protocol in the Select Network Component Type dialog box. Next click the
Identification tab and enter your last name. Enter <XXXX1> in the Domain Name
Workgroup Field. Double click Microsoft in the Select Network Protocol dialog
box, then select TCP/IP and click OK.
Configuring TCP/IP:
Select TCP/IP in the Network dialog box and click Properties.
In the TCP/IP Properties dialog box, select DNS configuration. Set DNS
configuration to:
Enable DNS
Domain name to <XXXX.com>
You must enter a Host name in the Host box. If you do not know what your Host
name is type in your last name.
In the IP address dialog box choose Obtain an IP address automatically.
Under the WINS Configuration tab select: Use DHCP for WINS resolution.
Creating a Dial-Up Networking Connection: From the Desktop, double click on
the My Computer icon. Double click the Dial-Up Networking folder in the My
Computer window. In the Dial-Up Networking window, double click the Make New
Connection icon. The Make New Connection wizard will ask you for the
necessary information to define a connection. When the wizard is finished
defining the connection, a new icon will appear in the Dial-Up Networking
window.
Could you PLEASE help me out.
Thanks
Jatin
