Hallo an alle!
Wieder einmal wende ich mich mit einer etwas groesseren Sache an diese
Newsgroup (wobei es diesmal nicht einmal ein Problem ist).
Es geht um folgendes. Ich habe alleine ein kleines Online-Projekt
aufgezogen, in dem ich taeglich ein paar aktuelle News rund um den PC
niederschreibe.
Nun ist es so, das ich auch gerne ein paar andere Artikel als nur pure News
auf der Site haben moechte. Da ich aber nicht soviel Zeit dazu habe, wollte
ich nun fragen ob ihr da draussen nicht Lust haettet den ein oder anderen
Artikel zu schreiben. Das Thema ist relativ egal, es sollte nur mit dem
Computer zusammenhaengen.
Das kann ein selbstdurchgefuehrter Hardwarevergleich sein (hierbei waere es
wichtig, dass er neutral geschrieben ist), aber auch eine Dokumentation
ueber die eigenen Erfahrungen beim Umstieg von Windows auf Linux.
Warum ich diese Bitte in einer Linux Newsgroup poste, hat den Grund, das
ich denke das Linuxuser in manchen Faellen einen voellig anderen
Blickwinkel haben, als vielleicht ein Windowsuser. Was natuerlich keine
Beleidigung sein soll.
Das wars auch schon ;)
Wenn jetzt also jemand Lust bekommen hat, melde er sich doch bitte per
E-Mail bei mir.
Dort werden dann auch Fragen und Details geklaert.
Ach ja, wer sich die Seite schon einmal anschauen moechte:
http://www.pc-news-aktuell.de
Sie ist sehr browserfreundlich gestaltet, wie es sich gehoert ;)
CU, Dennis.

We are pleased to announce our new location and our June speaker.
We are thankful to IBM for generously offering us the use of a room in
their 590 Madison Avenue building (the meeting place for LXNY and NYLUG)
for our regular meetings the second Wednesday of each month.
Our first speaker in this new space, on June 13th, will be
Christopher Molnar who has been highly and repeatedly recommended to us as
an ideal speaker for our group by various people from Mandrake. He will be
speaking on "The GNU/Linux Desktop" -- details and bio follow.
Christopher Molnar has been involved in open source and the free computing
environment for close to 10 years. His first major involvment in Linux came
when he started packaging KDE 2.0 alpha while he was still employeed by
Aetna, Inc. This caught the attention of Paris based MandrakeSoft - who
eventually convinced him to leave Aetna and work for them. In the last few
years he has worked for MandrakeSoft as a software developer/packager and
then as North American Training Coordinator. As the company began to
re-eveluate the potential for training programs in the U.S. Christopher
left Mandrake and is currently self-employeed as a Linux trainer and
consultant. Christopher is familiar with all areas of open software but his
love for Linux and the KDE desktop make him an expert in those areas. One
of the things he loves about speaking at user groups is the wide variety of
questions and problems he has the oppurtunity to help with. 'It is very
educational seeing what newbies are struggling with. I may not always know
the answers but if I don't I will try and get back to them with a correct
answer'. If there are any specific things you would like to hear about at
the meeting please drop an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and he will make
sure it is addressed.
As usual the meeting is free and open to the public and will start with
Q & A followed by the presentation as follows:
Wednesday June 13, 2001
6:30 Q&A
7:00 Christopher Molnar on The GNU/Linux Desktop
at the IBM building, 590 Madison Ave. (57th Street and Madison Avenue)
Please follow the link
http://www.eskimo.com/~lo/linux/JUNEmolnarattend.html
on our web page
(once) if you plan on attending.
We look forward to seeing you at the meeting.

A single parentheses '(' initiates a subshell and tries to execute
the progran INT1. Double parentheses initiate a let statement:
if ((INT1 > INT2)); then
...
If file1 and file2 are not large, you may find the following faster:
: $(<file1.txt)
integer INT1=$_
Backticks are obsolescent and are only included in kash for backward
compatibility. They have been replaced by the superior $(list)
syntax. Since the start and end sequences are different, it is
easier for the parser to evaluate the sequence, so you don't need
to escape sequences. The following would be extremely difficult
using backticks:
print "$(print "hel$(print "lo ")") world"

I've been very happy with an Okidata Okipage 10e. I've had it
for a year now, attached to a Red Hat 6.0 machine that serves as
a file a print server for my little home network. Linux treats
it as an HP LJ 4/5/6. Cost was around $300 from buy.com.
I think the current model is the 14e, though, which prints a bit
faster, but the price is about the same. The Oki came standard
with 4 MB of ram, upgradable to 36 MB. The other popular
choice, though I don't know why, is the Brother HL-1240, which
has only 2 MB of ram and is not expandable. Probably a cost
issue, as I think the Brother is a bit cheaper than the Oki. We
have one of these at work, and it seems okay, but I think we
occasionally over run the 2 MB memory with graphic-intensive
pages.
Nevertheless, both offer an honest-to-god paper tray instead of
a top feed slot, which seems to be more reliable.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Timers in threads
Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2001 15:44:55 GMT
Does anyone know how to set/reset multiple interval timers
in threads?
The man page says there can be one setitimer for
each process, however when setting one in each of two
different threads, they interfere with each other.
The separate process ids show up for each thread, but
apparently they are not considered separate processes for
setitimer purposes.
Need to be able to time IO waits at the tens of microsecond
level.
Also, when a read() function hangs due to no data, killing
the thread doesn't seem to clear the device handler. Only
killing the main program seems to do it.
Any ideas??

In theory, you should set the busmaster bit with "setpci 01:0.0 4.w=7",
however it doesn't work on my Via KT-133 chip.

hi... how can I get the right Alt key to work as a Meta key in the
Linux console when using Emacs?
I suspect this involves editing us.kbd.gz, but I'm not sure how to
do that.

There is a book:
Richard A Burgess, Developing Your Own 32-bit Operating System, Sams, ISBN
0-672-30655-7.
It is a couple of years old. With luck you can catch it.

Yes, I've tried Xconfigurator and xf86config, plus also editing my
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file manually. I've tried turning off
acceleration - I don't think any of the other options are applicable
(it's a basic card using system memory).
Looking through the XFree86 mailing list archives, I'm not the only
one having this problem.

Subject: ARKEIA backup: 'bad ticket' received
Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2001 18:58:31 +0200
Hello,
I have a strange problem with Arkeia backup software (trial and free
version).
Server machine is running RH linux 7.1 with HP surestore 24 SCSI DAT
tapedrive, client machines are win2k & linux.
Backup works if backing up data from server machine.
When trying to backup from a client machine I get an error that looks
like this:
[green] 18:35 [1] Trying to connect to "olympus"
[red] 18:35 [1] Can't connect to "olympus": Bad ticket received
[red] 18:35 [1] Backup of "olympus" not OK......
I have been trying to find any relevant information about this on
google, deja, altavista and arkeia-userlist without any success.
Has anyone experienced similar problems?
Any help is apreciated.
thanks,
greetings,
Gasper Lakota

Subject: win4lin CDROM conflict

Hi,
I am having trouble with windows 98 and win4lin 3.0 and hoping someone can help.
To start, win4lin installed fine under Mandrake 8.0. Windows 98 SE also installed
without any problems from a CDROM drive. However, when using windows 98, I am unable
to see my cdrom drive. I receive a device conflict from the "merge block device"
CDROM driver (code 10) when inspecting the driver properties. The means I can't see
my cdrom drive. Has anyone seen this and been able to resolve this conflict? I
contacted win4lin without much help yet.
The CDROM drive works fine under linux. It also can be seen under native windows
98 (without linux or win4lin). I am also the only user. I am stuck. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bruce Einfalt
