Been here, done this, got the three hours it took me to figure this out.
Get into the Adaptec utility (on boot up) and take the target for the
Yamaha down to 20 bps.
It cannot handle the Ultra, wide, etc SCSI calls that the SCSI
controller can.
Write me if you have further questions on this or if this makes no
sense. I'll try to write a cleaner step-by-step version.

If this wasn't so badly written and so full of stupid mistakes, I'd never
have noticed the trolling.
At least the length of the post (a lot more than the usual "Linux suxx
bigtime, why don't you leave Mr Gates alone.") shows that somewhere,
someone is getting more and more worried about Linux - which is good.

Subject: Anyone know "Workstation 2000" people?
On comp.os.linux.announce I read about an offer (through Linux Mall) of
a "Workstation 2000 Developer Station" for $1289.
Questions:
-Anyone know this company, bought a system from them, whatever? They're
located in Fallbrook, CA 92028 USA. Are they reliable, do they use, make
good stuff?
-What's being offered
(from: http://www.w2000.com/linuxSystems.html)
W2000-LNX-DSK-128-01:
400MHz Pentium II Processor
64MB RAM -> goes to 128K if you refer to Linux Mall, buy before 6/30
4GB EIDE Disk -> goes to 8GB if " " " "
40X CD-ROM
10/100 Networking
8MB AGP Video
3 Button PS-2 Mouse
Keyboard
MidTower Desktop Chassis
RedHat 6.0
Any comments or suggestions greatly appreciated.
TIA, Bob L.
P.S. Previously I've seen posting here from LinuxMall haters. If you're
one, but don't know anything in direct answer to my question, maybe you
should direct your comments to /dev/null?

I have no /var/catman directory. There's /var/man/cat1..catn, but
they're empty. The files are completely destroyed, there's only 20

Let me repeat your recommendation.
ALWAYS BUY LOGITECH!!!

No, I'm not associated with Logitech. I have just thrown

good synopsis of SuSE vs. RedHat deleted.
I too am a SuSE fan. I went to SuSE when I had trouble installing RedHat.
I wrote to RedHat to ask them if my purchase of the Sam's Linux book (which
included RedHat) qualified for technical support. I go no response. Then I
bought SuSE 5.2. I struggled with it for months and learned a great deal
about Linux. Then, I went out and bought the famed Caldera 2.2. The
technical support guy was a moron. Nothing installed properly except
my video card and the technical support person couldn't muster up more
than a partial sentence in response to my two page detailed description of
my problems. Repeated attempts only garnered more of the same, useless
one liners. The manual was totally worhless as it didn't have anything in
it outside of what buttons to push during install. If the button didn't work,
tough cookies. Finally, I went and bought SuSE 6.1. Only a couple peripherals
didn't install straight out of the box but it was a piece of cake to follow the
instructions in the manualto set these up. I now have a completely working
system.
Slackware - OK
RedHat - yawn
Caldera - BITE ME!
SuSE - Great!

Well don't expect too much bang from a 40 MHz RISC CPU. I have
worked on a Sparc 1 with 12 M running SunOS 4.1.3 and MIT X11R6
and found it tolerable. But I second the recommendation to max

It is slow even on an Ultra 1/300 with 256 MB.

I don't think so. Admittedly you can't install it "point&click"
but I have never had problems. You should work out your disk
partitioning scheme in advance, however.

Not really. I have a 500 MB system disk and it is big enough
to hold pre-formatted man pages and about half a dozen kernel
build directories and still has ample space in /var/tmp etc.
Nevertheless, I recommend that you should have at least four
gig available, since you'll want a few hundred megs each for
/usr/local and /usr/X11R6, and at least one gig for GNU and
X11R6 sources.
One thing to keep in mind is that SunOS 4.1.x does not support
local file systems larger than two gig, though it can NFS mount
almost any size.

Subject: Logitech FirstMouse+ (wheel)
Date: Tue, 1 Jun 1999 11:08:21 GMT
Hi!
I have a Logitech FirstMouse+, the two button kind with
the wheel in the middle that works as a third button.
As a three button mouse, it works great! I would like
to use the wheel too, if I can. From what I've read,
this should be easily accomplished. However, it's yet
to work for me, so I'd like some advice as to how to
debug my setup.
This is all I have in the Pointer section of XF86Config:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "MouseManPlusPS/2"
Device "/dev/mouse"
ZAxisMapping 4 5
EndSection
As you can see, the ZAxisMapping 4 5 is there.
I also downloaded imwheel-0.9.6.tar.gz and followed
the instructions for "[ METHOD #1 : XGrabButton ]"
After restarting X, I ran "imwheel -k".
I put in .Xdefaults for netscape:
!## NETSCAPE
Netscape*drawingArea.translations: #replace \
<Btn1Down>: ArmLink() \n\
<Btn2Down>: ArmLink() \n\
~Shift<Btn1Up>: ActivateLink() \n\

Alt<Btn4Down>: xfeDoCommand(forward)\n\
Alt<Btn5Down>: xfeDoCommand(back)\n
This setup didn't work. The wheel didn't do anything in netscape.
Okay, here's one thing that may screw me up, my Logitech FirstMouse+
is an OEM model M-S48 without the Logitech logo on top and white
in color. I read one webpage that said this OEM model *might* work.
So, I need confirmation from you guys with this mouse or a nice
test thing I can do to see if the wheel responds as button 4 and 5.
Thanks!

Change /etc/ppp/ppp-on, read add ...
