Subject: XFree86 4.0 - Pointer protocol error???
Date: Wed, 07 Jun 2000 16:25:02 GMT
Hi,
I recently installed Xfree86 v4.0. I am running RedHat 6.1 on 2.2.12 kernel.
Video is Diamond Viper V770 and Monitor is Viewsonic E790. Mouse is either
Logitech MouseMan + PS2.
Whenever i try to envoke x i get an pointer protocol error, module not
specified. My input section of the XF86Config file is...
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
EndSection
specific error from log...

When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
the full server output, not just the last messages.
This can be found in the log file "/var/log/XFree86.0.log".
Does anyone have any ideas?
TIA

Subject: Disk Mirroring without Software RAID?
Date: Wed, 07 Jun 2000 16:30:15 GMT
Hi all:
We have a web server with 2 identical SCSI drives in it. We want the 2nd
drive to act as a backup drive should the first one fail. We would like to
simply disconnet the first one, replace it with the second and reboot. We
don't really want to run software RAID. It doesn't really matter if the
*mirrored drive* is super up-to-date so we were thinking of a daily cron
job. Can someone help us out here on how we could do this and make the 2nd
drive bootable also on how to *incrementally* copy to the second drive so
that we are not constantly waisting resources copying data that already
exists on the drive.
Many, many thanks
jbeckers

What makes you think that encrypted passwords are stored in /etc/passwd?
(Hint: Look in /etc/shadow. Why things are split up like this is left as
an exercise, and my /etc/passwd has nothing but x in the second field of
all the entries.)

Subject: Boot Probs - HELP! (grub)
Date: Wed, 07 Jun 2000 16:27:34 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I have a dual boot system, Windblows 98 and Mandrake 7.1.
It boot or rather used to boot using GRUB. I had it booting
with the MBR of /dev/hda containing grub. /dev/hda1 is the
windoze 98 disk and /dev/sdb1 (SCSI) is the root Linux partition.
The system has 2 IDE drives and 2 SCSI drives, all for Linux
except /dev/hda. Last night I added a 1gig IDE Sparq drive.
With this drive plugged in, I can not boot anything. It seems
that Grub can't find the stage1 file (/boot/grub/stage1).
I tried the use the DrakConfig boot manager which says to setup
grub/lilo boot. Now it tries to boot using LILO :^( and it
still won't boot. I get a LI then it locks up. Still can't
find /dev/sdb1. I booted linux using the boot floppy and
checked the /etc/lilo.conf file then ran /sbin/lilo. Same
thing! I can't boot my system with the damn sparq in because
it can't find /dev/sdb1. I finally gave up and booted my
windows98 startup floppy and fdisk /mbr the thing. Now it
boots windoze but I need the boot floppy for linux.
QUESTION: How do I fix the ting short of re-install Linux?

I wish to have a routine pause and wait for IRQ 7 (parport) to generate
interupt, instead of polling the port with inb system calls. I believe I
will have to work in the Interrupt Vector table, but could use some
assistance. If someone would be gracious to help, I can give more info.
