Subject: problems compiling 2.4.0 kernel
Date: Mon, 08 Jan 2001 13:57:12 GMT
I've compilied the 2.4.0 kernel, but I can't get it to recognize my
ethernet adapters. I tried compiling them (it's an Etherlink III and a
Linksys DEC Tulip) as modules and direclty into the kernel, but whenever
the system boots up I get a failed on initializing ETH0 and EHT1, and
when I try to ifconfig them, it says unknown device.
i'm running linux mandrake 7.1
does anyone have any suggestions?
thanks.

Netscape is not part of GNOME, it's a product from AOL with no
connection to GNOME whatsoever.

Subject: ip masq problems on 2.2.15 kernel
Date: Mon, 08 Jan 2001 14:16:21 GMT
Hi.
I'm having problems getting IP MASQ to work (acutally I can't even get
the two comptuers to talk to each other).
In the linux machine I have a two ethernet cards. One is a Linksys
running the DEC Tulip driver and is connected to a cable modem
(everything is a-ok on that connection).
The other is a 3com etherlink iii. I have it's ip address set to
192.162.0.3.
This is connected to a hub, to which a Win98 machine running the same
exact 3com card is connected. The connection lights on both ehternet
cards as well as on the hub are all lit, yet I can't ping either machine
with the other machine. When I run route I get the following output:
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 eth1
Both machines can ping themselves fine.
Is there something I'm overlooking?
Thanks.

if I remember right, PHP comes as a module in Apache - edit the
http.conf file and enable the module
MySQL is another matter - you need to download it, unzip it, and read
the README _carefully_ - it's kind of tricky to install.

Compile the kernel. Then `chmod +r /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h'.
If you don't want to mess with compiling the kernel, I expect you can
get away with sticking this text in version.h by hand:
#define UTS_RELEASE "2.2.17"
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 131601
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))
It's just the text from my current one. You can change the 17 to 18 if
you want :-) (hmm, I must remember to upgrade...), but I think dosemu
should be happy with it as-is. Don't forget the chmod though.

Actually, GNOME has a port of KDE's old and unmaintained HTML library.
Integrating it into a web browser would provide something not much
better than KFM. Serviceable and lightweight, but inadequate for
some uses.

Certain userspace programs--e.g., ps(1), klogd(8)--use it to learn how to
translate kernel addresses into function names. See their man pages to see
where they look to find it.
The kernel itself does _not_ use it. The message often seen during bootup
is issued by klogd(8).
It is _not_ the map file used by LILO.

.Xclients is executed when you login via XDM,GDM,KDM.
.xinitrc is executed when you run startx.
You could make either one a symbolic link to the other.

Yup in particular you need to add these lines:
For PHP 3: AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3
For PHP 4: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
But did you configure apache with the proper php library
(for PHP 3: ./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a
for PHP 4: ./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a)
For the exact direction of installation follow this:

The floppy made with mkbootdisk boots very slowly on many PCs.
Surprisingly, this is less of a problem with really old PCs. It
may have something to do with the BIOS routines for reading the
floppy. It can take ten minutes or longer to start booting. It
takes forever to get the first dot and then they come painfully
slowly.
But there are a couple of ways around this.
First, you can put the lilo boot loader on a floppy by creating
a lilo.conf file with first line
boot=/dev/fd0
and everything else the same. It is best to give this a separate
name and run /sbin/lilo with the -C option to specify that name.
Then the initial lilo boot sequence will load quickly from the
floppy and the rest will come from the hard drive.
Second, you can use
dd if=your_kernel of=/dev/fd0 bs=1440k
to write your kernel directly to a floppy and
rdev /dev/fd0 your_boot_partition
to tell the kernel on your floppy where to find the boot partition.
This floppy will load relatively quickly. It may also be used
if there is some problem with the kernel on the hard disk.

I find this very strange. I seem to have just the opposite problem.
I have a machine running RH7.0 and the same version of sawfish.
I have the mouse focus set so it moves with the mouse and stays
in a given window until a move into another window. But if I want
to bring a Window to the top without clicking the title bar, I
have to use Alt-click, which is fine with me, but it doesn't always
work. It seems a timing matter and depends on just when I press
the Alt key and click and for how long a depress the buttons.

That's a good one! Except I just noticed that the "date string" must
be of the form "dd Month yyyy". If you type in "Month dd yyyy" you
get a phony result.
This particular "feature" of the date command is a Gnu enhancement,
not found on (some?) other unixes.

sounds like X is starting without a window manager. I have minimal
experience with Slackware, so I don't know what window managers ship
with it. Try "startx fvwm", and see if that does anything. Or, try
creating ~/.xinit, and place the line "exec fvwm" in it.

hmmmm well Dances, I too am crazy enough to use pine...
Which since you like pine, you must know it also serves as a newsreader...
And if configured to access Harry's mail & news servers will do both of
those in something like the way I think Harry used to use Agent...
Harry, pine will do you for both mail and news... It can access your ISP
servers providing your on-line when you try. if you set it up to access
your mailbox it will want you to type your mail password when it first
starts up.
if you later decide to use an MTA to retrieve your mail, or even set up
your own local news spool, pine will work that way to, (with a slight
adjustment or two in the config file, which can be done from pines set-up
menu...) So if you get used to pine, and then beef up your linux you won't
have to get used to another reader...
I use pine at work to access my company provided imap mailbox from their
SunOs unix... (but I let that unix's sendmail do my sending)
And at home I do it the other way around... their I download my mail via
fetchmail to my local mail spool which pine can access even when ppp is
down. But if I use my local sendmail to send mail it often fails to get
through to my employers mail systems spamfilters, which never happens when
pine directly accesses my isp's smtp server directly...
One thing about pine, is it's interface is textual <which suits me>...
Because it uses plain old text, it doesn't require X to work...

Sinced '/temp' isn't likely to be in you default path for executables
you'll need to do: (include full path-name of executable)
/temp/trans
or you could just do: (if temp is your current directory, i.e. pwd)
./trans

It is the permissions. Try "man chmod"; for now just do it.
