You can pass the module a parameter, telling it that the ethercard is
using a particular irq, other than IRQ3. Look in the Ethernet and Modules
HOWTOs, under your model ethercard. But first you have to set up the
ethercard to use that irq, using jumpers or software. Software usually
comes from the ethercard manufacturer, and usually runs under DOS.

Hi
When I record from /dev/dsp using sox like this:
sox -t ossdsp /dev/dsp -r 44100 -s -w -c 2 foo.wav
The kernel complains
kernel: Sound: Recording overrun
and foo.wav is screwed.
Is this is a scheduling-/buffering problem ?
Any suggestions how to approach this problem ?

Umm, compiling the kernel doesn't require X. It requires a C
compiler, an assembler, a 16-bit assembler (as86) on x86 platforms,
make, and a handful of other tools, but not X.
Perhaps you're trying to run 'make xconfig', and that's failing? Do
you have appropriate bits to use the (remote) display? (See the
Remote-X-Apps mini-HOWTO for more information on this.) Also try
'make config', 'make oldconfig', and 'make menuconfig' instead of
xconfig; all are probably more reliable, in the general case.
menuconfig offers the UI closest to what xconfig gives you.

Hi
Thanks ahead for considering this message
I can run xfconfig and sax on SUSE 6.0 with XF86 3.3.3.1, However when I

"The file XF86_xxxx (binary of X-Server) doesn't seem to be a binary

Please check it or / and install a new X-Server-binary.

I don't understand what the message is telling me. Also, please tell me

Well, why install all the extra crap if you don't want to use it?
Besides, both RedHat and Debian use that idiotic SysV style (or

A small idea; why not use modems? Does your friend have a modem on her
laptop? She could use PPP and log in to your machine; that would work,
and even if the file transfer wasn't exactly quick, it wouldn't take
that long on a dedicated connection.

Woohoo!! :)
Thanks in part to you guys' help, I now have a LAN! I'm
so elated! :)
First part of the problem was not knowing which IP address to
use, and you told me that. However,
pppd -detach crtscts lock 10.0.0.1:10.0.0.2 /dev/ttyS1 38400 &
didn't work.. I entered this on one machine, then entered the
equivalent (w/o IP address) on the other, and that would kill
the pppd on the 1st machine... Before smashing my monitor, I
happened to remember that /dev/cua? used to be the call-in
(or call-out, I forget) device. So, considering that I have
Slack '96, I tried /dev/cua1, and it worked! Now my synapses
are firing away like mad. I can telnet (no need for ssh!),
ftp, run X across machines... Man, this is gonna be fun!
Thanks again for the help,
Scott

You will need Windows to run that. Or you could use equivalent (or

I run a small network at home with a couple linux boxes and a couple
Suns. They all work and share data fine. One of the Linux boxes has
the modem that gives them all net access.
If I had a Windows machine, it could share the same modem, read files
remotely on the Linux machines, and print on the Linux machine that has
a printer... but someone else would have to install it to do that, since
I'd shoot myself if I had a Windows machine. :)

Along with the other suggestions given to you by this group, you may
want to couple into your scheme the X SECURITY extension. I have been
using it for a few months (thru a ssh connection) and it is not too bad.
It help to restrict a person who has stolen your .Xauthority to do much
with it.
Another option in this spirit is to use VNC or XMX as a "helper server".
I.e. redirect ssh X to that server, not your base one. Not perfect, but
can be used to limit certain activities.

Karl

2. continue install the linux 5.2 from DVD into Linux Native
everything went through ok, at the end of installation, I choose boot from
Master Boot Area,
and setup Linux as default (tried both Linux and Win98) boot up.
then I try to reboot the system, it get through the routine (keyboard,
mouse, floppy drive and DVD)
then I got blank screen with only one letter 'L' on upper left corner, then
the system halt..

/etc/issue and /etc/issue.net. Warning: distributions are known to reset
this after every reboot, so you may have to check your startup scripts to
make sure they don't reset to what you DON'T want.
If you want to print nifty stuff (like date, time, tty, users, etc...),
check out the getty(8) manpage under the section ``ISSUE ESCAPES''.

If you're using al larger hard drive (ie more than 1024 sectors) your
problem is probably that your linux boot partition located after sector
1024. This won't work. Your linux boot partition needs to be somewhere on
sects 0-1024.

Linux is not Windows, and it will not run Windows software. There is a
project called Wine (http://www.winehq.org) which is working on getting
Windows software to work under Linux, but it is still in alpha.
There's a lot of software for Linux, but usually not the software titles
you're used to seeing in Windows. To get some idea, check here:

Linux is essentially a flavor of Unix, for all practical purposes, and
as such is very good at networking.

First of all, executables are indicated using file attributes in Linux,
not with an .exe extension. :-)
I don't know where WordPerfect installs its files, but you can use the
rpm utility itself to find them. This command will list all of the rpm
packages you have installed (sorted and piped to more to allow for easy
reading of the long listing):
rpm -qa | sort | more
Use that command to find the system-recognized name of the WordPerfect
package. Then, do the following command using that package name:
rpm -qc packagename | more
to obtain a list of all of the files in that package.
Chances are very good that the executable you seek is living in a "bin"
directory of some kind (bin stands for binary, and generally refers to
things that you execute), probably /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, or some
directory under /opt.
