I want to use IPCHAINS rules for my ISP connection. The rules script will be
started at boot time using rules like: IPCHAINS -i ppp0. the -i option
depend on the interface name. I think the kernel will be confused when the
ISP connection will be estblished sometime with ppp0 and sometime with ppp1
when ppp0 will be used by an incoming call.
I don't know how to proceed.
Thank for your help

Subject: SB 16 ISA PnP: Alsa ok, Kernel not???
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2000 11:20:16 +0200
Hi,
I've a strange problem with a Sounblaster 16 ISA PnP on SuSE 6.4.
The card is detected by alsaconf, and everything works fine with
the alsa drivers. But the kernel drivers (sb.o) refuses to detect
the card (unfortunately, I need the kernel drivers for Quake I).
In /proc/isapnp there are the following information:
Card 1 'CTL00f0:Creative ViBRA16X PnP' PnP version 1.0 Product version 1.=
0
Logical device 0 'CTL0043:Audio'
Device is not active
Active port 0x220,0x330,0x388
Active IRQ 5 [0x2]
Active DMA 1,3
Resources 0
Priority preferred
Port 0x220-0x220, align 0x0, size 0x10, 16-bit address decoding
Port 0x330-0x330, align 0x0, size 0x2, 16-bit address decoding
Port 0x388-0x3f8, align 0x0, size 0x4, 16-bit address decoding
IRQ 5 High-Edge
DMA 1 8-bit byte-count compatible
DMA 3 8-bit byte-count compatible
Alternate resources 0:1
...
etc.
Ok, so I tried the following lines on the modules.conf file:
alias char-major-14 sb
post-install sb /sbin/modprobe "-k" "adlib_card"
options sb io=3D0x220 irq=3D5 dma=3D1 dma16=3D3 mpu_io=3D0x330
options adlib_card io=3D0x388
After doing a depmod, I tried "modprobe sb" (after unloading
the alsa driver of course), but got the following:
/lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/sb.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
/lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/sb.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/sb.o faile=
d
/lib/modules/2.2.16/misc/sb.o: insmod sb failed
The same when I try to specify irq etc. directly as parameter to modprobe=
=2E
With "fuser" I've checked that no one is using the sound devices...
When alsa is loaded, it shows the following information in /proc/asound:
=
Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA v0.5.5 emulation code)
Kernel: Linux linux 2.2.14 #1 Sat Mar 25 00:45:35 GMT 2000 i686
Config options: 0
Installed drivers:
Type 10: ALSA emulation
Card config:
Sound Blaster 16 at 0x220, irq 5, dma 1
Audio devices:
0: DSP v4.16 (DUPLEX)
Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
Midi devices:
0: MPU-401 (UART)
Timers:
7: system timer
Mixers:
0: CTL1745
That all looks very fine to me, but why is the kernel driver
refusing to detect the card???
Has anyone an idea? I would really appreciate any help!!!
Best regards,
Frank

Greetings,
So far I've used printtool and drakconf's printer setup. (Also made
sure I have the latest versions)
Both were pretty straightforward. But each time I try to print or test
print.
All that comes out is garbled. I few lines of junk and then nothing,.
This is not a stair-steeping problem I've seen what that looks like when
installing a different printer.
Any help on how to diagnose this would be appreciated.
This machine is a pure linux machine. There is no Win on this to see if
it works under Windows.
It does self test properly though.
Thanks.

Thanks Anita. You were right about the 3.6.1 typo, but wrong about
the docs. I'd already used that - that's what convinced me to bag my
generic setup. The only thing the link says is to not specify the
VideoRam, which as I noted, doesn't work. Also xvidtune doesn't really
have enough play to fix the problem.
I'd be happy to go back to the generic driver, if I could (I stupidly
wrote over the install XF86config). Xconfigurator gives me something
that won't fire up - any ideas about how to get the RedHat installation
XF86config?

how? I stupidly wrote over the XF86Config I had, and Xconfigurator
can't seem to make anything using "Generic" that will run - unless
I twiddle it, in which case I get the same problem as described. Some
switch needs specifying, I suppose, but have no idea which.

Hi Roald,
Did you compile the source from the Creative Labs' site directly, or try to
integrate it into the /usr/src/linux source tree? I compiled it
independently and it gave even more errors than the source that shipped with
RH 6.2! Did you do anything special? Did you download the latest CVS

I installed a win98,Linux and a win2000 server on the same computer on 3
HD's
I can't see why it should not work with 3 partitions.
first I installed win98 on the first HD
win2000 I then installed on the 3. HD
Linux must be on the 2. HD because / can't be mounted to the 3. HD (?)
(don't think that is the case when you use partitions)
LILO must be placed on the HD/ partition where Linux is installed.
I was not able to mount the FAT32 partitions in Linux but I was able to
mount the FAT16 partitions I had created on HD 1 and 3.
win2000 creates a boot manager where you can select to boot win98 and
win2000 and it can be modified so that you can boot Linux also.
A boot disk can also be used.

Answer from myself:
It works, when you first load CD-ROM modules from modules-disk and choose
a parallel-port CD-ROM-drive (e.g. Freecom IQ). Before you can load that
module for the CD-ROM, the parport-modules will be load (look at console
3 with keys alt+F3) and that is it, what you need for the ZIP+ drive,
which you can than load from the SCSI-modules. You don't need to load the
CD-ROM module completely before.

I set the chunk-size to 32 and mkraid still drops me back out with the

Subject: fs type swap not supported by kernel
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2000 11:25:47 GMT
The swap partition won't load at boot ("invalid argument"), and returns
the msg above when I try to mount it manually. cat /proc/filesystems
confirms that there is no swap fs supported. This problem seems to date
from a hard drive crash (which is now ok), but I have done nothing to
the kernel to cause a change. Because of this, I am reluctant to
re-compile, at least until I get some feedback on other possible reasons
why this is happening.
I have deleted and recreated the swap partition, just in case.
My fstab entry looks ok to me:
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 1 1
The distribution is RH 6.0
My best guesses so far are that:
?the swap fs support needs to be loaded as a module and the module is
either not loading or is missing
?this distribution uses a different name for the swap filesystem
and/or needs a different fstab entry
Any help is appreciated, since the system definitely needs a swap file.
It is acting like Windows, hanging and crashing when I have
memory-intensive apps running! e-mail replies are fine with me, as my

Set MOZILLA_HOME to you directory that Netscape is located in. In my
case, the netscape files are in /opt/netscape so what I did was put
MOZILLE_HOME=/opt/netscape
export MOZILLA_HOME
into my .bashprofile. I'm sure there are other places to put it too,
but that was convienent and it worked. Be aware - if you are running
multiple users, you'll need to add that to ALL of their .bashprofile(s)

Subject: Re: How to force incoming call mgetty/AutoPPP to always use ppp1 interface
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2000 11:52:22 GMT
I use the dial-on-demand option with pppd for the connection to the
internet. I use my linux machine as a gateway to the internet for the rest
of the LAN (IP Masq. with IPCHAINS). When the pppd command is issued it sets
up a ppp0 interface and whenever there is some traffic for the internet the
connection is established. So pppd creates an inteface, also if there is no
link to an ISP. Perhaps after starting the ppp0 link for the internet, you
can start the dial-in services( I don't know how to configure dialin). I;m
using Redhat 6.2. I hope it helps.

Below is a snippet of my /etc/modules.conf. Amend to
suit your /etc/conf.modules or /etc/modules.conf. This
is from an RH6.2 machine.
# alias sound sb
# pre-install sound /sbin/insmod sound dmabuf=1
# alias midi opl3
# options opl3 io=0x388
# options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 mpu_io=0x330

Frankly, Scarlett, I don't have a fix.

Anything with Kernel 2.2.14 or later will support the parallel Zip.
insmod parport
insmod imm
substitute ppa for imm if you have one of the older zip drives. I just
made a kdelnk on my desktop in KDE that works just like the link for the
floppy disk so I can mount and unmount the zip disk with the click of the
mouse.

The is an inconsistency here. If you have already downloaded
the pkgs, then the installer should not be promting to download
again. Are you sure you told it to install from disk. As a side
note, I have seen msgs stating that you also need to download
the xml files from Helix as well. Make sure you do this.
