You can of course restrict Linux to use only 64 MB by saying "linux 
mem=64M" at the lilo prompt, or add the following line to all kernel-
stanzas in lilo.conf: "append="mem=64M"". However, you will likely notice a 
decrease in performance, as the remaining 32Megs can be used even if it can 
not be  cached. My Ali chipset can only cache up to 128M, but adding 
another 64 still made my system a bit faster.

Not afaik.

Well, I guess the first question is.. if you are on a 10.10.0.0/16
network why are you trying to browse a 192.21.5.0/24 network?

I manage to mount my win partition with the command

mount /dev/hda1 /mnt (on SuSE 6.2)

and then change to /mnt to get to the partition - windows has
the 'first' partition on my hdd.

What advantage does this scheme have over using tar's --label
feature?  At least prepending a separate label allows one to
read it before extracting the tar by just moving to the next
file on the tape, no backward movement.  Of course partitioning
a tape and reserving the first physical one for a catalog might
be a better solutions.  Then you can use Weule's dds2tar (dds2index),
create an index-file, and store it in the catalog; which is even
better.  I believe one of KDE's application uses just such a scheme.

In the first hard drive instance i got the drive back up and running with a
boot disk of a different kernel and i lost some of the data, i now routinely
create a boot disk and put tools on it from whatever distribution i used so
hopefully i'll be able to rescue future disks without data loss, as for how
and why the disk fails i'm still perplexed it was working here on a machine
then it was working there on a different machine then a couple of weeks
later with normal use (no naughty shudowns or anything) it ceased to
function.

I wonder what the unsupported option is and how it got added as an option in
the first place.

You do need a sound-daemon, such as WMSound. Search on freshmeat for it.

Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 08:41:59 -0500

I have system with a AMD Duron, FIC AZ 11 motherboard, TNT2 video, 128mb
PC133 ram, and 7.5gb hd. I have no problems installing Red Hat 6.1 & 6.2.
When I reboot the kernel panics every time when it is turning off the CPUID.
Any ideas how to work around this or is this motherboard problem?

Just for people's interest the "file" utility will also tell you which binary
generated a core dump.  Very cool little utility that file command.

Subject: cu problems RH 6.2
Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 13:52:09 GMT

I have RH 6.2.  I have a modem installed as ttyS0.  I need to use cu to
dial out to connect to a customer's unix box.  I use cu -h -lttys0 and
get the CONNECTED prompt.  The TR light on the modem lights.  If I type
AT, when I press enter, I get ^M (like below)

Connected.
at^M^M^M^M

I can use ~. to disconnect.  But when I type it I get ~~.. (but I do
get the disconnect message).  This is the output of the stty -a.  I
know from reading the man pages there are settings in here that control
certain characters, etc.  but i cannot tell if I need to change a
setting or not.

speed 9600 baud; rows 25; columns 80; line = 0;
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^H; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase =
^W;
lnext = ^V; flush = ^O; min = 1; time = 0;

I have tried using minicom and can use the enter key within minicom,
but none of the control keys work.  I can't get out of minicom without
logging in on another screen and killing it.  I have read man minicom
and have tried experimenting with keyboard settings in minicom -s but
nothing allows me to use the ctrl commands.

I have to have command line modem access - won't be using the GUI
much.  Don't think I can use PPP because the number dialed will be
different every time.  Any advice will be appreciated.  Thanks.

Myra
