IE5 - when u save a webpage to local disk.
Later versions of some M$ utilities (Excel 2K, not sure about IE) can
be told to save all content within one file (instead of saving
additional content to such convoluted subdrs/file names), but I'd
really rather explore the options of mkisofs (or other such tools)
first.
Thanks, sTu.

I had ALL kinds of NFS problems with all of the 2.4.x kernels except
2.4.4. Once I moved up to that kernel version... it all just sprang to
life. NFS under 2.4.4 is a lot better, performance wise, than what's
available on the 2.2.x version kernels.
So... when you get the time, try the newer kernel... you may be surprised.

>Any recommendations on hardware RAID controllers for Linux?
Using SCSI disks: ICP Vortex, AMI MegaRAID, Perc2 or 3 RAID.
Using IDE disks: 3Ware Escalade
We've got a Perc3 RAID controller managing 480G of disks in RAID5 under
a slightly modified RedHat 7.0 install. I/O is fast enough that the
main bottleneck is the dedicated gigabit Ethernet link between the file
server and the compute server. If you need cheap RAID, the 3Ware are
supposed to be very good. More info can be had by searching for
"hardware RAID" on http://groups.google.com/ under group
comp.os.linux.hardware.

You might try booting into run level 2 (text console only/no networking) or
3 (text console but with networking) and uninstalling Mozilla. If you
installed using an RPM package, type "man rpm" and find the uninstall
option (sorry I forget it and I'm on a Solaris box now). Maybe Mozilla
installed some incompatible libs or something... also, I think in ~/.gome
there might be a gnome error log somewhere.
Good luck!

Oh yeah, too boot into a given run level, when booting the computer and
presented with the RH 7.1 boot screen, type CTRL-X immediately. At the
"boot: " prompt, type "linux X" where X is the run level you want (eg.
"linux 3").

Now you can enter the file directory and run command: make;make install.

Nope, Wasn't there, I did all the commands and the only thing it found was
the untar'd directory I was using for the installation.
I went out and downloaded 2.95.2 and will try it, who knows?
If you got any other suggestions, please post and pass along.

Me too! I just went through a minor exercises tuning up several ide hard
disks which by default get a very low and conservative use ratio. By
booting to single user mode one can play with various hdparm settings and
include them in a script to run at boot time. INitially, I had such slow
io access on a speedy athlon 1g thunderbird, I thought this ain't gonna cut
it. I then tuned teh disks a bit and things are pretty nice now. Man
hdparm is okay; but if you search google on hdparm, you will see a link to
an oreilly article which gives some pretty good use-case scenarios.
Helped me a lot!

To uninstall a rpm package:
# rpm -qa | grep <package name>
then
# rpm -e <package name>
for the second command enter the exact packae found with the first command.
If you need more information on how the uninstall, drop me a line off the
list.

Subject: The Linux Library Issue
Date: Tue, 22 May 2001 03:52:46 GMT
While attempting to install xmms-1.2.4 on my RedHat v7.0 box, I
encountered the following:
"libXxf86dga.so.1 is needed by xmms-1.2.4-15"
rpmfind.net showed that the library was part of XFree86 (installed) and
a quick check verified that libXxf86dga.so exists in /usr/X11R6/lib and
that the directory was listed in /etc/ld.so.conf for ldconfig. The
problem is obviously that libXxf86dga.so.1 isn't present.
As I've seen this problem occur during other package installations /
compilations, could someone please tell me WHY this happens and HOW the
Linux run-time library system works? I could manually create a symlink
to point to the needed file name, but this seems to be something that
occurs frequently enough that there should be an automatic method of
resolving these dependencies.
If anyone wants to point me at an FAQ or other on-line documentation
(it's amazing what's hiding in /usr/share/doc sometimes), that would be
fine as well. Thanks!

The FTP's seem to work fine for small and big files.

I installed Ximian Gnome 1.4 on a Red Hat 6.2 system when
it first came out. I have since upgraded to Red Hat 7.1 and
reinstalled Gnome on that. I have found in both cases that
Gnome 1.4 is so overflowing with bugs and problems that
it's almost unusable. I have to admit I'm a bit shocked that
software of such poor quality would be released as anything
more than experimental.
Is it just me, or is everyone else having the same experience?
Thanks

That's a rather fundamental deficit! You have a problem. Put the
library back where it should be.

I suppose you deleted the file or didn't install it. There are no other
explanations for its absence, apart from FS corruption.

No you couldn't, since according to you you don't have it.
You have something mixed up in your own mind?
BTW, my own installation of Xfree86, which is version 3.3.6, has no
.so for libXxf86dga. It's a .a (a static library):
nbd:/usr/oboe/ptb% locate Xxf86dg
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86dga.a
nbd:/usr/oboe/ptb%
There's nothing wrong with that. Compiling against it is fine! But
of course I can't link binaries that expect a .so.1. I'd have to
recompile them with static linkage to that library.
