Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2000 14:23:09 -0500
Hello,
I'm looking for a PCMCIA DAQ Card with the following specs,
but I couldn't found any yet. The OS I'm using is Linux,
Kernel 2.2. Does anyone know any card matching these specs?
Sampling rate : at least 500kHz
Input : at least 1 differential analog (0-5V)
Output : at least 1 TTL digital
Input res. : 12 bits or higher
You can write me directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Any help is greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance.
Ihsan Ecemis.

Boot from your install CD. Most of them will then let you switch to
a regular console (alt-f2, etc) and mount the Linux partition:
mount -n -t ext2 /dev/hda? /mnt
Then run "/mnt/sbin/lilo -r /mnt"

On the GNOME Bug Tracker at http://bugs.gnome.org/db/42/4290.html is
another report of this problem; it appears to be a glibc-2.1.2 related bug
for SuSE 6.3. I have posted an additional message there, but otherwise
until someone figures it out, we're stuck with it.

Subject: getting online in Linux
Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2000 19:30:34 GMT
I've just installed Linux Redhat 6.1. My modem is an HSP56 audiomodem
Riser which is built into the motherboard. I have a modem driver on the
motherboard support disc which creates a module associated with ttyS15. I
couldn't persuade the modem software to recognise this port, however, so I
changed the 'minor number' to create a module associated with ttyS3.[The
com-port used by DOS is no.4 for this modem] This produces an operable
driver although I have to use 'insmod' to load the module each time I boot
up. The modem dials OK and says that it has logged in to my ISP. But
Netscape can't access the internet at all. It comes up 'Host unknown...'
instantly I try to access a URL. I don't know if the problem is the modem
configuration, the PPP dialing device or my Netscape configuration. My ISP
has pretty typical settings - no nasty firewalls or anything. Can anyone
help? Thanks, Howie.

Hello,
I set up a Linux box as an IP masq to share Internet access between
several Win boxes. Now, I use a private IP within the local net.
When I try to telnet into the Linux box, I get several minutes delay

Actually, a good arrangement for mounts might look like:

/home
That will help limit potential problems.

You may not have a default route defined. Type the command:
netstat -r
you'll see the kernel routing table, and when dialed up, you should
see a route to 0.0.0.0 (it may say "default" instead).
To have your pppd add a default route, just make sure to specify the
defaultroute option (can be done in /etc/ppp/options).
Also, make sure you have your nameservers defined in /etc/resolv.conf

james.

Heyza - Had the same problem also. It's fairly easy to fix though. Find
out what directory your QT is installed (base directory with the lib &
include subdirectories). There is some environment variable you can set,
but for a quick fix (and since I can't recall what it's name is), do this:
./configure --with-qt-dir=QTDIR
Where QTDIR is the base dir QT is in.

Hey all:
I just compiled dev kernel 2.3.47. I used this process.
make menuconfig
make dep
make bzImage
and
make bzdisk
I copied the bzImage to my boot directory and added it to lilo.conf. I
ran lilo.conf and all was ok.
Upon reboot from either the diskette or using hda, I get a problem that
has to do with VFS
Something like,
Kernel Panic: Unable to mount root filesystem 03:03
I know that my boot partition is /dev/hda3 and it works for other
kernels (2.2.12).
Does anyone have any suggestions? I have tried compiling the kernel
with RAM disk and without RAM disk thinking that might help.

I don't know if your RH CD is bootable, but try this: when your computer
is powering up, but before it starts reading the hard disk, hit <DEL>,
or <ALT><DEL>, or whatever it says to do to enter setup. Change your
boot sequence from "A,C" or whatever it is now to "CDROM, <others>".
Insert the CDROM, and hit <CTRL><ALT><DELETE> or reset. This should
start the Linux installation if the CD is bootable. Your mileage may
vary, but this is what would work on my system. One the installation
program is started, your on your own.
Next time Norton asks whether to "repair", choose "inoculate" instead.
When LILO and Norton interact, "repair?" actually means "f*ck up the
boot sector?". Norton tries to delete LILO when you say yes, but it does
a ham-fisted job of it. Instead of leaving you with a Windows-only boot
record, you get garbage, as you learned the hard way. When you choose
"inoculate", you're telling Norton that everything is okay, remember the
current configuration and don't sweat it.
G�d Luk!

Well, I went and looked. Of the 23 vulnerabilities reported for February,
Windows is susceptible to at least 16 of them. Some of those are cross-
platform applications like perl, but more of them are gems like the
Windows-specific "crash Explorer by giving it a malformed link" or,
even better "Outlook Express 5 allows remote attackers to read your
email."
There's not a single Linux-specific exploit on there. Of the 22 listed,
the only ones that even apply to Linux are two perl exploits. Did you
even bother to look at your own link?
