(  I) don't use 2.95.2 or newer for the kernel, it's not yet ready
( II) 2.96.whatever is a snapshot but AFAIK RH ships a kgcc
(III) 2.2.17 does compile with gcc-2.7.2.3

As a minor note, you may get some warning from as depending on
the binutils version but as handles the `slight imperfections
in the asm code' by itself.

Try to change the Makefile, run make mrproper first to be safe,
and then try again and good luck with RH 7.0.

Cheers,

Take out the map-drive= and to= lines.  Read
/usr/doc/packages/lilo/README to figure out what they do, and why you
don't need them if Lose9x is on the first hard drive.

This seems to be happening a lot lately.  I've answered this question
several times over the last few weeks; please go to
http://deja.com/home_ps.shtml and search comp.os.linux.misc for author
"Dances with Crows" and keyword "kppp" for details.  There's an option
in kppp that you should turn off--it's "Auto-configure hostname from
this IP addr" and within Setup->Accounts->Edit Account->IP.  Or you
could just do "xhost +localhost" after you make the PPP connection.
HTH,

I have the same problem when I moved my hd from a secondary in a 686
dual (with w98) system to the primary of a linux only system. I deleted
all partitions and did a fresh install of linux but got the same Li and
then a freeze. I currently boot with a floppy but would like to fix it.

fdisk/mbr gets rid of the MBR ok booting gices a missing operating sytem
error. How can I get Lilo re-installed. I've tried using linuxconf but
it just puts back the Li freezing problem!

I'm using the Suse 6.4 dist. This is a portion of the /etc/ppp/options file.

Another way to send SIGHUP is;

kill -HUP `/var/run/syslogd.pid`

either way it forces syslogd to reread it's config file.

I did try the auto_irq option with no luck. I didn't get anywhere until I used
the setserial command above.

Using irq 4 on ttyS1, I was able to get the modem to dial, the remote end
probably was sending reasonable LCP frames, but I think I had interrupt
problems that prevented correct interpretation of them.

With that serserial command and no changes to my dialin script, I'm logged in
with no problems.

Thanks for your help.

I'm updating my previous post.  Some nice person told me
about alogin. 

This instructs you to modify the /etc/inittab as follows:
change
1;2345 respawn:/sbin/mingetty ttty1
to 
1;2345 respawn:/sbin/mingetty ttty1  /bin/alogin

When I do, I get an error on login which says that the
system
is respawning too fast and shutting it down for 5 minutes.

Any clue?  The docs for alogin only talk about agetty, or
mgetty, but
not mingetty.

Actually, Johan, here I was being rather flippant -- my definition of
trust
and the gentleman asking the question are different.  Still There is a
thing
called DNS cache poisoning.  For example suppose there is a server up
stream
that is set up to give you a bad IP address for a name you query or vice
versa.

Since your system trusts the DNS server that gave it the name -- or IF
YOUR DNS server TRUSTS the server that it got the name from, when that
server is not authoritative for the domain. --  It becomes possible
for someone to maliciously feed you a bad name or IP and redirect
your traffic to a site which is not what it seems to be.

Your host will store that information in it's arp table.  From there
on out, your system will talk directly to the wrong IP address, until
that address times out in the arp cache.  That usually takes about
120 seconds of no packets exchanged.

For example, I once saw this used to redirect people at an ISP to a site
that LOOKED like it was Yahoo but when you (they) went to check their
mail
the site only took their username and password...  then left them
hanging.

The problem is a very complex problem involving authentication.  How
does
a DNS server KNOW the DNS server it is querying IS who it thinks it is?

This is done with authentication... either based upon RSA or some other
means of encryption.  To date these 'specilized' DNS servers are usually
DES based.  I hope in the future we see a standard that requires DNS to
authenticate using RSA and to maintain encrypted data streams to any
DNS server willing to use the protocol.  This would go a very long way
towards bringing accountability back to the internet.  The vast majority
of name servers on the internet do not use any form of authentication
except to trust an IP address.

Hello,

I'm a java developer new to linux (or any unix for that matter).  I'm
wondering what java compilers/tools most linux developers favor.  I know
Sun's JDK is available on linux but am wondering what alternatives there
are.  Does GNU have a Java offering?  I'm looking for something with a
good command line debugger.  The debugger that comes with the JDK is
really, really poor.  Anyone have any suggestions or thoughts on the

I did 'lilo -v' while '/boot/message' was all empty.  So it didn't work.
I pop 'vi /boot/message' and insert a space, did again the 'lilo -v' then

I had some good luck with ftp.lame.org. I work nights and I was able
to download the iso's at work.

I never could get W2K as a client under VMWare running. After upgrading the
Hardware to an AMD Duron-700 and an ASUS A7V motherborad NT4 will no more
run either (Blue Screens after the dots appear). I re-installed all software to make 
sure
it detects the new Hardware.
I think VMWare is not compatible with the VIA Chipset and the AMD Processors.

Subject: Geting X to work on HP Laptop
Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2000 19:43:25 -0400


I've got a Trident Cyberblade video card.  In the BIOS of my Laptop you can
setup how much memory you want the video card to have. I have set it to 4 MB
and when I configured X I told it I had a 4 MB video card.  However when X
starts up it sees a 64k video card, meaning I can only do mode 13h.

I have double checked ALL my settings including Monitor, Video card, and
Resolutions.

I'm pretty sure that there must be a way to get X to see all 4 MB of ram
but I just don't understand how.

Please help me if you could.  I have read all the manuals I could think of
but just cannot find a solution.


Thanks

I downloaded from sunsite.auc.dk, about 40 kb/sec throughput (took
overnight to download). Since then I've checked twice and I've always
been able to log in.
