Has anyone successfully setup Connectix QuickCam VC (parallel port) on
Linux? If yes, then can you give me few pointers on how to setup the
parallel port, and what program you used? Even though it works okey
on Win95, I'm trying to run it (or any cam) on Linux.
I tried 'gqcam-0.4' which needs 'videodev.o' and 'bw-qcam.o' modules.
But, after killing 'lpd' and removing 'lp.o' module,
modprobe -a videodev
modprobe -a bw-qcam
gives
/lib/modules/2.2.6/misc/bw-qcam.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
I also tried 'cqcam-0.90pre7', but it fails to find the camera.

In 1991 when Linus created Linux, ANSI C++ was in the works. Remember, before
the ANSI standard there were tons of different versions of C, and C++. ALso, if
you program in a language for so long, and write something good, why change to
a language you just used? I doubt Linus knows C++ or has the time (he compiled
himself without SMP :P). The last reason is that C is way more popular than
C++, so the # of developers who contribute to Linux may not know C++. Heh, even
C++ was writtin in C :P

Hello,
I'm not looking for the specific answer, however, I'm curious about
what's broken here and then i'll hunt it down how to fix it. :) I'm
trying to learn!
Okay, I've got RH 6.0 on my box. I telnet into a bsdi box (4.0.1) and
then try to open an xterm from there and i get this error:
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for foo.bar.com
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: foo.bar.com:0.0
So i thought maybe it was the xhost stuff, so I completely disabled
anyform of authentication:
xhost +
However, I still get the same error. Can someone lend me an explanation
of what is broken here? Also, here's another whacky one. After I have
telneted intot he bsdi box and try to vi a file on that box, everything
looks good. however, when I try a vim filename, I get crap like this:
^[[35m#include ^[[31m<sys/param.h>
^[[35m#include ^[[31m<sys/types.h>

Actually, no. The proprietary code executes on the client machine
(Which MUST be MS-Windows), but the front-page server can "dish out"
the proprietary code.

Microsoft only made a small portion of DCOM (the portion that is
similar to CORBA) available to the IETF. The critical pieces
needed for a server were almost implemented by Software AG. The
client side requires the OLE/COM paradigm.
As for SAMBA, the UNIX version still doesn't have the necessary hooks
for Access Control Lists. Even dynamic group generation would be an
improvement. Of course, in the Linux/UNIX environment, the servers can
be more intelligent and the SAMBA facility is only needed by those who
update the file (readers can access documents via HTTP, which does have
ACLs).
> Even if DCOM can't be coopted, it's good to have it running on Linux.
Remember, the key strategic value of DCOM was to derail the CORBA
effort. By coming up with DCOM and putting it into IE 4.0, such that
it became an operating system "extension", the more standardized CORBA
required either a substantial download (Navigator 4.x) or a siginificant
purchase.
Blocking CORBA was intended to prevent the proliferation of CORBA
clients which could easily be implemented in either Windows or Linux.
Microsoft has been attempting to do the same with XML. XML provides
structured mark-up capabilities for a number of different object types,
but Microsoft has repeatedly tried to force in-line inclusion of
proprietary OLE/COM objects into the XML datastream. Furthermore,
Microsoft has tried to have document formats such as MS-WORD, Excel,
MS-Word-Drawings, and VBGraph objects recognised as "official" standard
object formats. Essentially, Microsoft was trying to hard-wire ActiveX
directly into XML. Under the proposed Microsoft standard, a user would
be forced to accept the ActiveX control without taking any action.

This would be true if what was being offered was a fully implemented
client (GUI interface). Unfortunately, all that is really being offered
is a minimally functional server.

Right now, Linux has a great deal of momentum and is gaining even more.
Linux is doing with CORBA (GNOME, KDE) what Microsoft does with DCOM.
Linux is also creating a market for dual-platform applications such
as WordPerfect.

Actually, Microsoft is the frustrated trapper confronted with a smart
fox (the Linux community) that seems to have figured out how to
spring the trap without getting caught and then walk off with the
bait.
What Microsoft is beginning to realize is that the Linux community
isn't like so many of their previous victims, who can be sucked in
by greed and then forced to comply under threat of bankruptcy or
institutionalization.
> Divide and conquer.
There are some areas where Microsoft is making some inroads. Applix,
WordPerfect, and StarOffice have mutual agreements that give them access
to Microsoft Office file formats. Microsoft is adopting XML, which may
open the Office Suite and information publishing even more.
I don't see Microsoft trying to survive exclusively by it's control
of the Operating System. Microsoft now owns principle interests in
satellite systems, cable-tv, web-tv, numerous web sites, and numerous
service functions. Greyhound doesn't drive busses anymore (they sold
the lines to Trailways). Goodyear doesn't make rubber tires anymore
(they use polyester). The carriage company that makes the bodies
for several automobiles was once a famous coach and horse-drawn
carriage maker.
Microsoft may get out of the Operating System business altogether,
they may compete and cooperate in a competitive market, or they may
let SCO do the operating systems and then write the software for them.
Microsoft CAN'T come up with anything like UNIX (a violation of it's
agreements with SCO), and it would be foolish to assume that it will
continue to hold it's monopoly over Linux and the UNIX variants.
Microsoft will have to cooperate, augment, and support Linux, UNIX,
and the related OS family. Windows 2000 will not be as profitable
as it's predecessors because the OEMs won't be willing to pay as much
and will expect even better quality. If Microsoft attempts to
resort to it's traditional strong-arm techniques, it's likely that
the big guns, like IBM, DELL, Compaq, HP, and Gateway will simply
throw their weight behind Linux. It's very likely that Apple will
be putting OS/X (with it's BSD kernel) into the iMacs.
UNIX was a key factor in the success of the Internet. Linux on the
desktop will have a similar impact.

Subject: midi for ES1868 (SB driver)
Date: Mon, 30 Aug 1999 17:55:42 -0400
Hi!
I am trying to install the sound driver of 2.2.11 on a Thinkpad 760EL,
which has a ES1868 sound chip. Therefore, I set up the SB drivers (as
module), but my documentation (delivered with RD 6.0) is not in sync
with the software and I can't get the midi driver to work.
It should be uart401.o (found in /lib/modules/2.2.11/misc), but the OS
can't find it at boot time.
Therefore, when I run sndconfig, the second part of testing doesn't work
and I get annoyed by the "FAILED" label at boot time ("can't find midi
module").
Any idea?
Guilhem.

The purpose of overloading the << and >> operators was certainly not to
compete
with the printf and scanf family. If you're only using them to throw things
to cout or cin,
than you're certainly in no position to critique C++. The actual purpose of
those
operators is to allow any class the ability to define its own methods of
streaming itself
out. The fact that stdout(cout) and stdin(cin) are streams, and that int,
long, char* and
what not all have these operators defined was an afterthought that fit
nicely into the paradigm.
If you're not familiar with the concept of streams, well, then this
conversation is moot.

You can have a thousand constructors, each with arguments, that are not the
copy constructor. The difference is that the copy constructor takes a
reference to
a pre-constructed object. It's an object oriented language... at runtime,
you decide
how to construct yourself. Thats not a tough concept to grasp, is it?
> Whats wrong with constructor() , destructor() and copy() for chrissake??
So, you would rather have this, then:
MyClass* myInst = new constructor();
constructor? what constructor? who's constructor? This is where a
compiler tells
you that you're nuts... in any language.

The plain fact that C++ is an ANSI language should tell you that many many

Lets not compare C++'s readibility with that of assembler. The only point
to be made,
and it is a valid point, is that, the deeper you go, or rather, the closer
you get to writing
true machine code, the more powerful your application will be. With that
said, it's almost
impossible to write an app in assembler that is worth a damn, considering
that it'll take you
so long to write/debug/test, that you could never even dream of meeting any
real-world
business deadlines, which is certainly not the case with C++.
Bottom line is this: C++ isn't a toy, its a tool, and sometimes tools are
complex and hard to
operate. If you have issues with the syntax, stick with Torbo Pascal. I
personally am glad
that C++ is the way it is.. if it were easy, everyone would be doing it, and
that makes for a
bloated marketplace for techies. We all know what that mean.

Darin, I agree with much you say, although I think, in general,
128M is excessive for single-user systems. I'd recommend
32M or 64M. It's easy to add a swap-space; it's a PITA to reduce
the size of one, (and you could end up with a chunk of space in the
middle of other partitions, not really usable.)
I tried once to fill up swap space to see what the Linux kernel would
do; (on AIX, it will start killing processes). I loaded everything
I could think of: X, WP, netscape, gimp, xv, image-magic, acroread,
ghostview, big graphics files and .pdf's, etc. I never did get swap
space full... (64MB of real memory, 72MB of swap). Multiple instances
of programs often don't increase memory use very much.

This program dereferences a NULL pointer where I've noted above. It is
legal by the standard for the compiler to pass the address from p through
to create the reference parameter c because p cannot be NULL in a
strictly conforming program - dereferencing a NULL pointer is undefined
behavior and illegal in a strictly conforming program.

Hi,
I'm having trouble getting my ethernet pcmcia card to work under linux. I
wonder if any one can help me diagnose the problem.
The card is a 3com 3CCFE575B-DT Fast Etherlink XL
Linux Kernel: 2.2.5-15
pcmci-cs version 3.0.14
The system reports no problems but the card does not work. Card works on
other systems and under win98 in the same system. I set up the IRQ to 9,
which is the same value I used under win98.
All drivers are loading, the network.opts is properly configured and the
network script is properly executing. The machines gives two high beeps as
if everything was ok.
ifconfig command shows all configuration is OK, but it shows some rather
high numbers in the overruns and carrier fields. For example:
overruns: 130, carrier:30
Thanks for any help

This is not possible. The << and >> operators take a stream object on the left.
This means that they must be the members of a stream class, or non-members. We
are talking about C++ right?
A non-brain-damaged design for C++ streams would put the stream objects
on the right, so that one could design object methods that accept the
stream, not the stream accepting the objects.
Of course, you can still do this, if you want, so the syntax becomes
my_object >> cout;
which is preferrable.
Then again, the ability itself is of little utility. I can't think of any use
for this other than debugging. If you want to know the state of object x,
just grab a lock, do cout << object, then unlock.
There is a use for object serialization (a.k.a. marshalling) but there
are interface compilers for that. You wouldn't want to implement RPC's
over streams. Or use flat text files as an object store.
>and stdin(cin) are streams, and that int, long, char* and what not all have

The afterthought was the overloading for arbitrary objects. That is why it's
awkward to do, with anti-object-oriented crap like non-member friend functions.
The original thought was to overload the stream for basic types,
since overloading the basic types isn't possible.

crashes. Do I need to need any patch(either RH6.0 or JVM) ?
Thanks,

Subject: NFS Daemon Failed to load: nfssvc not Implemented

When upgrading my RedHat 6.0 to kernels 2.2.10 and 2.2.12, the
NFS Daemon does not load properly.
At boot, I get FAILED, and when trying to run /usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd
manually, I get;
nfssvc: Function not implemented
NFS runs properly under the default RH6.0 kernel 2.2.5-15 kernel.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
This problem exists on 2 seperate machines. A PII 400, 512MB RAM w/
RAID 5 (AMI MegaRAID), and a Dual PII 333, 256MB RAM, IDE.
Thanx in advance!

Where can I download Realplayer G2 for RH6.0.
I found a shareware that required me to run it under X.
I usually run Gnome(with KDE enabled) as my desktop environment.
Thanks,
