Here's a thing: I was trying to connect to Demon with kppp, and every
time it'd get to password authentication, then quit with the error
message in the subject line.
I've re-entered the password twice, so I'm a little confused.
Funny thing is Eznet still works just fine. Go figure.

Just reconfigure the kernel and then the sound section, select OSS/Drivers
and then select the CS4232 chip, fill out the IO-address (0x534) IRQ 5, DMA
1, DMA2 0, Midi 0x330, IRQ 9 and all should work fine. Recompile the kernel
and the soundcard should be initializing (try dmesg for confirmation). May be
you need other settings.

What happens in gv or ghostview with this file? If there's some sort
of nonfatal postscript problem I suppose you might get this from an
error message of some sort.
What version of ghostscript are you running? 5.10 or 5.50 are the
latest gnu and aladdin versions; minor bugfixes creap into most
drivers over time, so you might benefit from an update. The bj-10ex
is certainly supposed to work fine with gs's bj10e driver.

I have no idea was this thread is about, I stumbled on it by accident. I
love linux, I think it's the greatest thing in the world (maybe it's because
it's free, I don't know), but I've never contributed much to it so I have no
business butting into this argument but I just wonna say one thing: I was a
little surprised to see Linus get personally involved in this exchange and I
wish he would spend as much time as possible applying his genius to
developing the system rather than participating in these arguments...

Actually, I think the silly DVD encryption thing will some day become
public knowledge anyway: as far as I know it's just a trade secret, and
thus if it ever gets leaked it's a free-for-all. I could be wrong, I
haven't looked into the issue all that much.
But in the meantime I actually do hope that we'll have a DVD player some
day. Yes, it will probably be commercial, but I don't actually dislike
commercial software per se. I just strongly prefer to have software
with source code (whether GPL or BSD or Artistic license doesn't actuall
ymatter to me: it's just that I myself prefer _writing_ GPL'd code, I
have no problem with whatever other authors choose to use).
I also think that sources are more important for fundamental stuff that
I really depend on (like a compiler, for example - just in case it
breaks). A DVD player is still just "nice", and if it breaks I could
just short derisively and then go on to other things ..

A good starting point is the INSTALL file of any GNU source archive.
Basically, all that's required to install most GNU packages are:
1. Unpack the archive.
2. In the top-level directory, do "./configure" w/o quotes, of course.
3. Do "make" and "make install".
Or better yet <g>, type on one (bash) command line:
# ./configure && make && make install
Once you've done that a few times, you should have some idea of how
GCC, make, and the ld linker interact, and be sure to look at the Texinfo
documentation for each of them (it's part of the source distribution, and
some of the more important ones are archived on their own, too).

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'd like to announce the release of tpconfig version 2.2, the Synaptics
Touchpad Driver for Linux. Version 2.2 contains support for the
recently released 2.2.X kernels. Version 2.2 also now gracefully
times-out if it is run while gpm is active or if tpconfig is run on
top of X.
The Synaptics touchpad is used on a variety of laptop computer
including Acer, Dell, Gateway, Olivetti, TI, Winbook and others as a
pointing device.
tpconfig is available at www.compass.com/synaptics.
tpconfig is available as a gzip'd file and is also available in binary
and source rpms on this site.
This software is made available under the GPL license.
Much thanks to John Bell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for his help in identifying
a problem under the kernel 2.2.1 and his assistance in debugging
this version of tpconfig.
tpconfig was originally written (version 0.1.1) by C. Scott Ananian
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and is now being by myself at this site.
Send comments, suggestions and bug reports to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Revision History:
2/16/99 Version 2.2:</b> - Bruce Kall ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Modified to work with 2.2.x kernel as well as 2.0.x
kernels. This version now also gracefully times out if
being run on top of gpm or X.
7/8/98 Version 2.0:</b> - Bruce Kall ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Changed to work with modern Synaptic touchpads which contain
newer firmware (that have a single mode byte). Also added
detection of newer touchpad info ('Super' 'Ultrathin',
'Widepad','Stamppad','Submini','Multiswich').

U need to update your symnlink to pppd-2.3 from pppd-2.2
here is waht i did
go to /usr/sbin
rm pppd
ln -s pppd-2.3 pppd
this sets up the symnlomg to the latest pppd which 2.2.1 needs to

failing
Date: Fri, 19 Feb 1999 10:42:36 -0500
OK, I now have a boot disk that successfully boots a rescue disk, but I
can't see how to mount that original boot floppy so I can pico edit the
lilo.conf. Chicken|egg syndrome..
Or, the problem would possibly be solved if I could somehow override that
append mem=20M statement I foolishly put in the lilo choices on the
bootdisk.

I don't quit understand why you need a driver for a modem just use minicom and connect
to the modem
and issue commands like:
atz
atdt{phonenumber}
etc...
when you have that figured out use pppd and chat.

The 1440x720 mode is supported using the uniprint driver with the
stc800il.upp parameter file. See

If viewing with gv or derivatives does more harm than good, try
TeXing the input again and looking at the .DVI with xdvi.
That should sort out any dvips-related problems.
