Then modify the /etc/securetty file to allow root login, or use normal login and
use su command.

Alias string in conf.modules? Try loading modules with no io and irq arguments?
Did you compile as modules or in the kernel for the card? If you compiled as
module try loading it by hand using the full pathname, that should narrow the
problem down.

Just write a shell script called 'safe_rm' or something similar
that moves $1 $2... to a trash directory and deletes $1 $2... in
the original location. If you are really motivated you can write
an undelete script too...using 'find' would give you a ton of
options that may be useful (undeleting by time, size, inode, etc.).

I had a similar (I believe) problem. As root, run minicom -s, go to screen
and keyboard, and change the command key. A little window will open up and
you can enter whatever command key you want (to replace Ctl-A). I reccomend
that you just hit escape at this prompt; this should let you call commands
with a simple press of the Alt key.

Subject: Why won't my modem hang up?
Date: Sun, 11 Jul 1999 03:53:34 -0500
Thanks for reading...
I just installed Linux-Mandrake 6.0 and am having problems with my modem.
For some reason, the modem seems to think that it is "online" even though it
clearly is not. This results in "device busy" messages whenever I try to
use kppp and the inability to dialout from minicom (as I'm already
"connected").
When I instruct minicom to hangup the modem, the online/offline indicator in
the lower right temporarialy changes to Offline, but reverts back to Online
within a few seconds. While "online," if I press any of the keyboard keys
the indicator changes to offline and then immediately back to online (it
also resets the time spent online value).
I've looked around the internet for help, and the two possibilities seem to
be that A) DCD is incorrectly set (currently set to no DCD) or B) I'm having
an IRQ problem (possibly a conflict with another device).
On a similar topic, I used to have problems of this same nature under
windows (I'd love to invest in a new external modem, but I'm leaving for
college within a month and don't have a computer to take with me). My modem
has 2 ports for a phone line, and I would constantly have to pull the line
out of one and move it to the other because the modem would, upon
disconnect, keep the line open. Only by switching ports would the modem
hang up.
Can someone please tell me what is happening with my modem and what I can do
to correct the problem? Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Subject: fetchmail/qmail no longer talking to each other
A while ago, I had a perfectly running fetchmail/qmail system.
Fetchmail
delivered all my mails to X@localhost where X was either my name or my
wife's
(our email addresses ar [EMAIL PROTECTED]), and qmail delivered to x, which is
the
account name on the linux box (see home.tvd.be/ws35056/linux/mail.htm
Now it has all gone wrong, and I want to recover the good old days.
My .fetchmailrc reads:
poll mail.tvd.be with proto POP3
user "userName" with password "password" to * here
options forcecr
and qmail is listening on port 25. Below is an extract from fetchmail

/var/maillog simply confirms that fetchmail was sending the mail to
postmaster,
and this is what is happening for all mails
If I put tvd.be in rcpthosts or locals I fear i will either create relay
possibilities in the former case, and not be able to email other TVD
subscribers in the latter.
How can I once more get fetchmail to pass mails to X@localhost

Su http://www.apache-ssl.org/ si trova tutto. E` un server che da`

Subject: Keyboard/mouse interface
Date: Sat, 10 Jul 1999 12:49:30 -0400
This is probably a long shot but I'll give it a try anyway.
I have a 4 soon to be 6 machine network. I'm the only user for this
network. On the network are 5 OS's. NT 4.0 Server and Workstation, Win 98,
95, and soon to be Linux + X-Windows.
My problem is that the number of input devices is cumbersome to say the
least. 6 monitors I can handle but 6 mice and keyboards can be a real pain.
I have several multibutton mice (Logitech Mouseman). My fantasy interface
to this network would be a single mouse and keyboard. Maybe switching focus
between the systems with a mouse click. I have tried switch boxes but first
they're awkward, and second, they have a tendency to hang the machines.
I don't have the time and probably insufficient experience to try writing my
own drivers but if anyone knows where I might find source code to get me
started or ultimately a ready made solution I'd certainly be interested in
hearing about it. Thanks.
