You have to upgrade. The 3.3.5 server I have supports my G200 "out of
the box" without a problem. IIRC, I had problems at the 3.2.X level as
well.

I use the G200 and had no troubles with XFree86 3.3.5 though it may run

Thank you fellas for your immediate response.
I have configured my system in strict accordance with the ISP's written
instructions. i.e.
- DNS updates in etc/resolv.conf
- /etc/host/conf updated
- /etc/ppp/options file for configuration/connection options:
this file calls CHAT and another script I've set up in the /etc/ppp
directory which does the dialin and login.
ISP does not use PAP or CHAP.
I type "pppd" which uses the options script.
I have liaised twice with the ISP but they've been tardy in their
response.
Its a shame cos it costs me the price of a telephone call each time I
make a connection and immediately get kicked off when the login process
hangs.

Subject: Can't recover a damaged disk (SuSE 6.1)
From: Drew Linsalata <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2000 14:02:25 GMT
I have a development system running SuSE 6.1 with two IDE drives. The
system crapped out on me (would not boot - "kernel panic: could not mount
root..."), so I newfs'ed my second drive and re-installed the system on it.
Now the trick is to recover the data from the first drive, which, when
mounted, shows only
system.map
boot.b
map
vmlinux
etc...
Looks like LILO stuff to me.
When I try e2fsck on the drive, I get the "bad superblock - could not find
alternate superblock" error. Even e2fsck -b x (using all the standard
superblock numbers) is not working.
Any ideas as to how I can recover the data on this drive? It would save us
a very long weekend of work to re-build what we had from backup.

Hya,
My Linux box gave up on me. Because of some hardware problem (Linux was
frozen) I was forced to shutdown RedHat 6.1 without the 'shutdown'
command.
Now, when I tried rebooting, it tells me to press: CTRL+D for a normal
start up or to give the root password for maintenance. Anyways I type
the password and type 'fsck' and it responds with "Parallelizing fsck
version 1.15 (18-Jul-1999). I also tried 'mke2fs /dev/hda1' but tells
me that 'hda1' is in use. Can someone tell me what I must do to get it
back up and running?
Thanx...

Some people have had trouble with Norton Utilities. If you can't
fix it with Partition Magic, you might give it a shot with NU,
but you may end up having to reinistall Windows. However, Dell
has a program called something zztop which can restore
the Windows partition from the hard disk. The Dell tech people
are not too clear about it, but I think it is in a hidden
partition at the end of the disk. But it won't work in some
circumstances. The Dell Tech told us it wouldn't work if
we had used partition magic or installed Linux, but I'm not sure
he knew what he was talking about. But if you can find out
how to use it, you might give it a try. It worked quite well
for us. Then you can use PM from a floppy to resize the
Windows partition.
If you have to reinstall Windows from scratch, you will have some
trouble reinstalling their drivers from the CD they give you.
Windows 98 is very stupid about being able to find what it
needs. But after some persistence you will probably be able
to do it.

The other responses to your questions covered most everything about
the basic system and installation. The distribution will contain
an awful lot of software although not all of it will be installed
by default. You can install additional packages as needed from
the CD. In addition there is a lot of software available over
the web. For rpm packages try www.rpmfind.org. You can
also get lots of software in the form of "tarballs" which are
a bit more complicated to install. You can get staroffice
free from Sun. After you become familiar with the Linux world,
you will find that you can get software to do virtually anything
for free.

I don't know much about it, but it is mentioned somewhere in
one of the HOWTOs I think. Try the Linux Documentation Project.
I think you can use the card as an ATA33 with recent kernels.

Subject: Re: question re hp lserjet 1100
Date: 12 Apr 2000 15:02:54 GMT
The better question is whether it works with Ghostscript, which contains
all the printer drivers for Unix.
Then the answer is yes - I bought an 1100 a few weeks ago, and it works
flawlessly on my FreeBSD system. I haven't tested it under Linux,
but I don't feel a need to, since both OS's use Ghostscript to drive
the printer anyway.
In general, any *good* PCL printer is a good choice under Unix-like OS's.
(A postscript printer is even better, since it eliminates the need to
use Ghostscript as a driver. Check out the Optra Color 40 at buy.com
if inkjet is OK, otherwise go to adobe.com for a list of Postscript
printer manufacturers.)
One warning: Watch out for off-brands that claim PCL emulation, and also
Windows printers where the PCL support is in the Windows driver instead
of the printer firmware. ( e.g. HP 3150 all-in-one )
I originally bought a Brother all-in-one (printer, fax, copier) with
PCL. It worked, but at about 1 page every two minutes, vs. 6
pages per minute advertised. ( Raw text went fine, but it took a long
time to chew on any PCL output )
I took it back, bought an HP 1100, and lived happily ever after.
