You have to check for eof _before_ you're trying to read, an only if
[eof] returns false, you should call [gets]. Your example reads
regardless of the end of file state of your stream.

Hi all,
I have a question concerning suspend on my laptop, a Fujitsu Lifebook
C352. I"m running Caldera linux
Untill a couple of days ago, suspend worked just fine, then it quit. If
I hit suspend nothing happens till I shut down, then after
"uhci_control_thread" exits, it goes into suspend mode.
Suspend, still works ok with Windoze, it's a dual boot machine.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this before I resort to reloading
linux.

their /var/spool/mail/ file. They knew they had been sent it and didn't
want to download it over a slow link. The file also contained other

Thanks, but I'm still lost. If netzero encrypts the password, how do I get
hold of the encrypted version so that I can send that to netzero when I
log in? I'm not aware of any linux ppp config utility; for my other ppp
connections (e.g. to my university's sysem) I simply use chat, and so far
as I know, all that chat does is look for prompts from the server and
respond appropriately, i.e. automate what I can also do via minicom. Am I
missing something?

I went a similar way as you did.
However, I also found www.resellerratings.com and found out that
my original choice for mailorder had a real bad reputation.
So I changed my sources and my parts were all perfectly fine, on time
and I was happy with it. They even adjusted my order to fix
incompatibilities.
Actually, before I placed my order I took a trip through the local
office and electronics stores and even found an on-sale HD and a
cheap ethernet card.
Now, I have a nice Athlon system that even runs Linux and FreeBSD.

Hello,
I just noticed that my home computer will give an error when I try to
run an app that is somehow linked to "libglade.so.0".
The error is:
"gfloppy: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libglade.so.0:
undefined symbol: xmlSAXUserParseFile."
I get this exact same error also with memprof, gedit, etc. ( anything
that has to do with glade).
I removed "libglade-0.13-0_helix_1.i386.rpm" and then installed it and
ran "/sbin/ldconfig", but that did not work.
Can someone please help. Maybe even explain as to why this might have
happened.

I highly recommend that people use the latest kernel, with the latest ide
patches, sync their disc before switching to dma and be prepared for the
system freezing.
If you're not running anything else and don't mess about switching on DMA
for the first time shouldn't be too painful. Generally if it doesn't lock up
tight after few seconds it should be ok.
And it greatly increases disc throughput and cpu usage. Other stuff like
setting -u1 to enable interrupts also helps to reduce skipping.
As always, do it on a quiet machine and be prepared for the worse but
there's nothing against at least trying.

Hi. Its been awhile since I put together my TR/ethernet router, but I
believe that I had to build the TR card into the kernel (rather than
using modules). I probably would have tried modules first (it was only
the 2nd linux machine I got going). Also, make sure that you know what
your interrupts & shared RAM & addresses & all the other funky stuff
that TR cards have on 'em are - I'm sure I had to do that through DOS.

Congratulations!! You've taken a hard step, as most systems are not built to be
altered by the consumer (at all, let alone in this way), and you've accomplished
a major alteration.

As the tools evolve and manufacturers stop hiding the information, this task
will become easier. Working with the hardware is the most difficult task of all,
so congratulations to your success.

Not surprising. Most manufacturers of low-cost equipment build to the "common
denominator" (i.e. the largest market). This happens to be the MSWindows crowd,
so a lot of hardware (of this nature) is built specifically for MSWindows.
Informed consumers don't normally purchase components that they cant use.
>My printer won't work either.
Hmmm, then either you didn't look, and bought a device that you cant use, or you
didn't read the instructions.
>I installed linux to learn the system but have spent all my time just
>trying to get all components to work (which don't).
Strange. In my experience, the fastest way to learn is to do the job, and you
certainly would do a lot of things to configure a system. This makes the task of
"getting it to work" the ideal learning experience. For example: to get the
printer to work, you get to know and use:
- root authority
- shell commands
- shell scripts
- process management
- daemon management
- text editors
- networking support
- LPD configuration
- parallel port configuration
- kernel configuration, sysgen
- init and inittab management
- runstates
- kernel module support
- postscript
- package management
and so on
Perhaps you didn't mean that you wanted to learn the system. Perhaps you meant
that you wanted to learn how to use a few high-level tools on an already working
system. There is a difference: You seem to want to "be a power user" rather than
to "learn the system".
>Even if Win 98 is
>unfair monopoly, it works with comparatively little fuss.
After taking a decade of fuss and countless man-centuries of development to get
there. And, most of the fuss is with you, not with Linux. I've built three Linux
systems, taking about an hour apiece, with full X, networked and local printer
support, NETBIOS server and client support, NetWare client support, webserver
support, NFS support, etc. It can be done, but (obviously) not by you. Take
heart, you probably don't know high-energy physics or high finance either
(neither do I). There _are_ limits to what each person can do, and you have run
into your limit.
>I'm disillusioned with Linux.
If I were you, I'd be disillusioned with _myself_, not with Linux. Linux didn't
fail you, you failed it. Think of it as a test, and you didn't pass. It's not a
difficult test (not like getting your MBA or PHD), but it is more difficult than
learning to tie your shoes or crossing the street. I'd say that it's about on
par with repairing your car or installing MSWindowsNT from scratch.

You can always configure your system to run X at bootup automatically.
Remember that one of the reasons that X is so bloated is that it
has significantly more capability than Windoze. It's networkable
(you can run your app on one machine and have it display on another),
and you can plug in any window manager you like -- even write your
own if you're so inclined.
>Using Linux in text mode is very nice. I like it. Its Kernel is compact,
Same here. I don't load X on any of my Linux systems.
In the book "The Unix-Haters Handbook" (which I keep at my desk for
inspiration) the section entitled "The X-Windows Disaster" begins
with the quote:
"If the designers of X Windows built cars, there would be
no fewer than five steering wheels hidden about the cockpit,
none of which folloed the same principles -- but you'd be
able to shift gears with your car stereo. Useful feature,
that."
To truly appreciate this you have to have done some X programming.
It's even uglier from the inside. :-)

Subject: Large HD + Linux + Win98
Hello!
I have got the following problem:
I want to install both Linux (SuSE6.4) and Windows 98 on a new system
with a 20.5 GB Western-Digital IDE HD. I have already spent some time
trying, but nothing seems to work.
Obviously Windows and Linux cannot agree on the partitioning of the
harddisk. I have tried both LBA and NORMAL as BIOS modes for the disk.
Every time the result was that one of the OSes only recognized 500MB or
8GB of the disk, or the partitions overlapped.
Thus my questions are:
- which mode is the right one (LBA, NORMAL or LARGE)
- which software should be used for the partitioning (DOS fdisk,
Linux fdisk, cfdisk, yast or WD Data Lifeguard)
- are there special parameters for the kernel or for fdisk that have to
be specified
So far I think I have found out that Windows only works with LBA, Linux
only with NORMAL.
If you know a solution: Please answer by E-Mail.

You need "vacation" - look for it on freshmeat.

/proc/kcore is not a core dump. /proc/kcore represents the contents of
system RAM, and is not supposed to be accessed by anyone but root. In
general, the files in /proc are not *supposed* to have a size. They're
generated on the fly by the kernel when they're opened and read. /proc
is not a "real" filesystem; it's a virtual one meant to give info about
the system and to allow system tuning on the fly. Try doing a "cat
/proc/interrupts /proc/pci | more" to see information on the number of
interrupts generated and the PCI bus, for example.
It is a bit confusing, but the behavior you're seeing is completely
normal.
