: Backup isn't just 'tar'. Backup also contains a strategy,
: like tower of hanoi,
: incremental backup and such. And I would like to use something
: 'out of the box'
: with some NT client users can operate themselves.
That's *exactly*, why I am suggesting smbtar!
With smbtar you *can* do incremental backups, differential
backups and more.
Even an "NT client user" could very well start a script.
Anyway:
A good backup solution does not need to be *operated*.
With a good backup solution, you exchange the tapes once a day,
and have the computer(s) take care of the rest.
And a final thought: Because everybody's backup requirements
are different, there is not such a thing, as an "Out of the
Box Backup Solution".
If you want to backup just one PC, then there are a few ready
made solutions, which you might get away with. But if you
talking about backing up a whole network, then they are too
inflexible and way too expensive.
Honestly, by using the tools, which already come with Linux,
not only you get the cheapest solution, you also get the best
working one you can think of.

Subject: 2.4.0 install problem; AMD Athlon K7
From: John Hunter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: 23 Jan 2001 21:45:27 -0600
I just had a go at installing the latest kernel, 2.4.0, on my RHL6.2
system. I found that the kernel would not compile when 'Processor
type and features/Processor family' from xconfig was set to 'Athlon
K7' (which is what I've got). Lots of undeclared 'current' errors.
Following a hint I got off of DejaNews, I changed this to K6 and the
kernel compiled fine.
Should I submit this as a bug report? If so, to where? Will this
affect my system's performance? Is there a workaround?
Thanks,
John Hunter

Subject: kernel 2.4.0 ate my eth0; att@home cable modem
From: John Hunter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: 23 Jan 2001 21:57:23 -0600
When I installed
I recently installed the 2.4.0 kernel and found I had lost my network
connection (ATT@home cable modem w/ ethernet card).
According to 'dmesg', when run on the kernel that it is working under
2.2.14 (RHL 6.2), that card is:
eth0: SMC1211TX EZCard 10/100 (RealTek RTL8139) at 0xda00, IRQ 10, 00:e0:29:6e:81:d7.
A couple of curious things here. When I first installed the cable
modem, I was running kernel 2.2.14. I did not need to recompile the
kernel: the card worked with the existant kernel configs. This is
funny because when I looked at my 2.2.14 kernel config, the 'RealTek
RTl-8139' under 'Network Devices' was 'N'. And even if I choose 'y' for
this card under xconfig for 2.4.0, recompile and install the new
kernel, no dice on eth0.
Hmmm.... is there some other chipset that this card uses which I need
to enable under 2.4.0 to support this card? Any other suggestions?
There's no crisis because I just rebooted the 2.2.14 kernel, but I'd
like to upgrade if I can get the card working. Everything else
appears to be working fine under 2.4.0.
Thanks,
John Hunter

This message would lead me to believe that your version of vim was not

Hi to all,
I have a Mitsumi ATAPI CR-4802TE witch worked well on a P/133 with kernel

But since I have upgraded my machine to a K6-2/400 with kernel 2.2.18 I
always have a SCSI error while it is fixating the new disk. The device is

I have tried multiple thing ( running without X, without autofs, flashing
the device, older version of cdrecord ) but always the same error.
Does any cdrecord guru knows what thoses errors means ??? What are the
difference in SCSI command between a writing a disk and fixating a disk.
Thank you for your time.

Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2001 04:56:35 GMT
I am using an 8139 with the 2.4 kernel. It works for me, but I think
something has changed. There seems to be an '1329too' driver.
I now get the boot messages:
8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.13 loaded
eth0: RealTek RTL8139 Fast Ethernet at 0xc8800000, 00:00:xx:xx:xx:xx, IRQ 10
eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8139 rev K'
(except with a MAC address instead of x's)
I built the 8139 driver into the kernel (haven't tried it as a module)
Do you get the same result from this command?
> grep 8139 /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_8139TOO=y
Also are you sure it's the driver at fault? (Does ifconfig -a show eth0?)

I have to guess that either your sound card or CS46xx driver
is defective. /dev/audio is the mic when used as source, and
speakers when used as the target. If sound card output works
but input gives a device error, I can't think of anything else it
could be.
(I can unplug my mic from sound card, and still get the "input"
to write to a file.)

Another question is whether Woody will ever have kernel 2.4.0
and XFree86 4.0.2 (as I needed for NVidia's accelerated drivers);
they might wait to go in the release after Woody (but I don't know
that).
Downloading, compiling, and installing XFree86 4.0.2 went pretty
smoothly (but I was upgrading from 4.0; more work would be necessary
from a pre 4.0 version).
The kernel upgrade does require some other stuff to be updated
(to versions which likely don't have .deb packages) so that's
heading off into the woods. I did that on my desktop machine but not my
home server (which is clean potato).

Actually I don't know the detail but the problem I face now is I can't run su

I can find the file libxalflaunch.so.0 at /usr/lib/ so I think that the
problem is libxalflaunch.so.0 can't load some other library, any idea?
Besides, as I want to install the rpm of mozilla, I need to install glibc
2.2.1, but when I install the rpm of glibc 2.2.1, it have confilct with glibc
2.1.3 which many package depend on it. Thus I use rpm -i --force to install
glibc 2.2.1, will this cause problem?

I've been using Linux for some time now, but I've never understood why
on some installs, an xterm will produce utmp/wtmp entries, while on
others, none. This applies specifically to two RedHat 6.1 installs, but
I've seen it happen with RH5.x & RH4.x too; I can't remember if
Slackware did it... too long ago. It seems to be independent of whether

I've searched far and wide, but no avail.
No one has created a web page with detailed, step-by-step instructions
on upgrading the kernel to 2.4. There are a few tips here and there on
upgrading the kernel in general, but nothing specific for 2.4. I'm
talking about the proverbial "Idiot's Guide to Linux Kernel 2.4
Upgrade." If you have a decent background in Linux and computer
programming, then it's easy for you, but what about for the rest of us?
Wait for a distribution to feed us the Kernel?! I would like to see
the prevalence of Linux extend into the mass public; non-computer
professionals. I'm sure the Linux community would much appreciate your
efforts if you donated time to create a web page with
easy-to-understand, detailed, step-by-step, guide in upgrading to Kernel
2.4.

I figured out how to display the day of the week; e.g., Mon, Tue, Wed,
etc. I still have not figured out how to display the time in AM/PM
format, which is absurdly bizarre. The default should be AM/PM format,
and the 24-hr format should be an option. Not only is the default the
24-hr format, the change to AM/PM format is no where to be found. Could
KDE have screwed up *this* badly?! What does "user-friendly" mean to
