I just upgraded my dual boot box (Windows 98 / RedHat 6.2) box to RedHat 
7.1...  Everything went pretty good, but when booting up and trying to 
start X, I get the following error...


Cannot open device /dev/mouse
...
Device or resource busy


I tried running Xconfigurator, mouseconfig, etc, and all -seem- to be 
okay with the Microsoft Intellimouse PS/2 mouse selection, but it always 
fails on the load of X...

cat /dev/mouse gives a Device or resource busy also...  X does work, as 
long as I configure the mouse to com1, but then there -is- no mouse, so 
that has limited use...  :)  also tried redoing the symlink from 
/dev/mouse to /dev/psaux again... no go...

I have also tried setting the X config file to /dev/psaux by hand, but no 
go...  Everything worked fine previously, and I know that the mouse is 
functioning properly on the PS/2 port (I'm typing this from Windows right 
now...)  

Does anyone have any ideas what could be tying up the device ???  I shut 
down everything that I could and nothing gave it up...  gpm gives the 
same device busy error...

I'm out of ideas...  ?!?


Thanks in advance...

Welcome to Linux-land!
Judging by the question, you are a tourist, learning your way around.
Not knowing what will be the usage of the system, there is NO definitive
answer.
For about three years mine installs included only two partitions swap and
root, till I knew enough where I need more and what is not used.
And the usual mistakes on the way.
But it IS part of the fun.

Subject: heeeeeelp  bind 9.1.0
Date: Mon, 07 May 2001 20:38:58 -0400

I am a bit stumped.  Here are a few questions that I
have perhaps you can assist me with them.

I am running bind 9.1.0-10 from a fresh Red Hat 7.1 install.  When I
issue the command /etc/rc.d.init.d/named start apparently named is
starting because if I do a ps aux | grep named I see five instances of
named running.  Now if I do an nslookup using either localhost or
127.0.0.1 as an argument I get a reply that tells me that the name
server is 192.168.1.1 which is the IP of my box on the LAN.  However, if

I do an nslookup with a name or IP outside of localhost I get the
following result "connection timed out, no servers could be reached".  I

have gone back and changed the owner and group of the named.conf file
and all of the zone files to named.  However, I am still getting the
same result.  I am not seeing any distinguishable errors in
/var/log/message.  The only thing regarding named listed there is that
named is running.

My DNS zone needs are very simple at this point.  I have one domain that

I have to be a master for.  Basically that is it.  I have four other
hosts on the LAN and I need to receive mail for the LAN.  So actually
since I want to run a primary server the only zone files that I think I
need is .  localhost   my domain  and the reverse zones for localhost
and my domain.  I think where I am most hung up at this point is the dos

and don'ts regarding syntax in version 9.1.0 as a matter of fact I am
not familiar with the syntax at all of version 9.1.0.

Is there anyway you could possible direct me where to find documentation

on the syntax for version 9.1.0 and if at all possible forward me a
barebones sample zone file that I could edit and the reverse file for
that same zone.

This is really driving me up a wall.  Any and all assistance is greatly
appreciated.

It does! if you have sufficient disk space you can take 'snapshots' of your disk at
specified intervals so if you delete something by accident you can go to the snapshot 
and copy that thing back to where it belongs.

Is the above version number a typo? The reason I ask is that I am using
a pcmpc100 version 2.0 on my laptop without any problems what-so-ever.
In fact I grabbed a copy of the pcmcia-cs versionn 3.1.23 and compiled
it to run with the 2.4.4 kernel... No problem there either. What's
really nice about this card... it'll do 100baseT in duplex mode with a
similarily capable hub/swithc box... In other words... quite fast.

Running a base install of Caldera Open Linux 2.40 and the card was
auto-detected during the install... since that time, I've heavily
upgraded my laptop without a bit of problems from the PCMPC100...

The OP should check his /etc/ppp/options file and make sure that the
line which says "noauth" is not commented out.  If you don't have
"noauth" somewhere in that file, then pppd will require the peer to
authenticate itself.  This is not what you want if you are just dialing
in to your ISP.

Subject: Problem with mouse on laptop with RedHat 7.1
Date: Mon, 07 May 2001 21:35:04 -0500

I have a Winbook Xl laptop.  I originally installed RedHat5.1
on it, and I've upgraded to every new version of RedHat
including RedHat 7.0,  all without any significant problems.
I just tried to upgrade to RH7.1.  The upgrade appeared to
be successful, but after rebooting at runlevel 5 the
mouse did not respond.  Worse, I couldn't get out with Ctrl-Alt F1
or even Ctrl-Alt Backspace.  Turning it off and rebooting,
I found that even in run level 3, without X running, the screen
froze.  This was apprently fixed by stopping gpm.   

But startx left me back where I had been earlier.

I found in the RedHat errata that there were problems with
Xconfigurator and mouseconfig.  I installed the updated
rpms and tried to run Xconfigurator.  With appropriate
settings it gave me a reasoable screen, but the mouse
didn't respond.  Fortunately this was in the test phase
which times out after about 10 seconds, so at least it
didn't hang.

I tried various settings in mouseconfig both with a generic
3 button mouse plugged into the PS/2 plug and just using
the touch pad.  Nothing worked.

I have given up on upgrading and I am now trying to install
RH7.1 instead.  Perhaps that will work, but I am not too
hopeful.   If it doesn't work, I will try going back to Rh7.0.

Has anyone had a similar experience?   Does anyone know how
to fix this?

If you look at other postings, you will see that I have a similar
problem on a Winbook XL laptop.  I don't know what is causing
your problem, but I did discover that there are some problems
with mouseconfig and Xconfigurator involving the mouse.  See
the Redhat errata page.

If you download the rpm files---they are not very large---you should
be able to boot in run level 3 and upgrade the rpms.  It is
possible that may fix your problem, but I doubt it.

I suspect we will be hearing from others about this and related
problems.

Eh?  There's a configuration file called "LINUX.BAT" that LOADLIN.EXE
reads.  It should contain a line like so:

LOADLIN C:\VMLINUZ root=/dev/hda6 ro

Everything after the DOS path to the kernel image is a parameter that is
passed to the kernel.  You could, f'rexample, put "hdc=ide-scsi" at the
end of the line there.  Is that what you were looking for?

Historical reasons.  Unix was a multi-user system from the very
beginning, and storage space was very expensive back in the early 70s.
So initially, when you rm'ed a file, its disk blocks were marked as
available immediately, and the file or parts of it got overwritten
whenever another user needed space.  The DOS way of doing things
(replace the first character of the filename with ASCII 206, marking the
file as "deleted") wouldn't have worked--storage space was too tight.
Ditto for the MacOS way of moving files to a "Trash" directory.

(Desktop environments like KDE and GNOME have implemented the MacOS
concept of a ~/Trash directory, so you *can* undelete things, sort of.
There is also the -i option to rm.)

The idea here is that the system does exactly what you tell it to do.
There's no bollocks about "The contents of this folder are not shown
because they are essential to the operation of the computer", you can
bloody well rm -rf / if you want to.  Unix, in general, assumes that its
users know what they are doing.  Read Neal Stephenson's "In The
Beginning Was The Command Line", and pay close attention to the bit
about the Hole Hawg... he explains this far better than I could.

ext2 is a 64-bit filesystem; the size limit for a single file is in the
terabyte range.  (I have created files > 16G on ext2 filesystems on the
Alpha platform.)  There was a problem with the 2.2 kernel series, the
x86 architecture, and older glibc that limited file sizes to 2G.  These
problems have since been fixed, although you essentially have to
"recompile the world" to get all the utilities to play nicely with files
 > 2G on the x86.  64-bit architectures like Alpha and Sparc never had
this problem.

Recent distros like RedHat 7.1 should have large file support in
place for all the utilities.  Are you sure you didn't run out of disk
space, or encounter a bad sector, or run out of inodes?  5.9G is a very
strange place for creation of a large file to fail; I'd expect the
failure point to come at 2G or 2T.

Because there needs to be a way to _really_ remove a file.  Your mission
