your best bet is download souce and compile them each. you still will
experience a lot fo problems this way. try getting another distro that
will work is a better path. try slackware.

Have a look at firestarter.sourceforge.net.  It's a little gui firewall
that's very easy to configure.  There's versions for gnome 1.0 and 1.2

Subject: No sound on Compaq workstation
Date: Sat, 25 Nov 2000 15:22:29 -0500

Hello,

I have a Compaq Professional Workstation AP550 with an integrated sound
system called "SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio".  When booting up,
I hear a "pop" and it shows that RH Linux 7.0 successfully initializes
an "i810_audio" device. But no sound works within Linux.

Red Hat Linux 7.0 finds it as "Intel Corp 82801AA AC'97 Audio" when
I run sndconfig. But when I try to do the test sound, the embedded
speaker again just "pops" once.

Can anyone give me some tips on this....I am new to Linux.....

Thanks

I have to agree.  Unless there's something in 7 you really need, don't
bother.  6.x with all the redhat security and bugfix rpms (and the
helix-code desktop) is about as good as it gets for redhat.

I say this from experience, as one of my boxes has a rage128 that needs
XFree86 4.x to run properly.  It still amazes me that it won't compile
a stock kernel out of the box :-\.

I looked into xmodmap, and it does look like a cool piece of code. I'm sure
I can put it to some good use, but it is not what I was looking for. All I'd
like to do is tell my X server I want lo load a US keymap. You know,

Date: Sat, 25 Nov 2000 20:55:47 GMT

Hi ,

 I ran into sound card installation problem that I can not get out of, i
tried everything
 I can but without success.

After some trouble to get everything working under 2.4test10 kernel that
I
am using (on RH7 base) only sound card is left unconfigured from all
other
devices. I have SB 128 PCI card and Asus A7V board.


Here is my proc/pci entry for the card:
Bus  0, device  13, function  0:
    Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 7).
      IRQ 12.
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.  Min Gnt=12.Max Lat=128.
      I/O at 0x9000 [0x903f].

I compiled sound support and driver for this card as modulues for my 2.4

kernel. Then ran sndconfig which picked it up , played linus' .au file ,

but sndconfig then DID NOT proceed to midi sample as it usually does.
To make the long story short, now I can not play midi files nor mp3's
etc
only .au and .vaw


cat sndstat gives no such device:

[root@localhost vlad]# cat /dev/sndstat
cat: /dev/sndstat: No such device

So I am somehow stuck in the middle can play some files some not and
unable
to find any reference on this problem anywhere :(

Any ideas?


Thanks a lot,
Vladimir

Well, that is a pain, isn't it.  Debian is only install that loads a driver for
my PCMCIA ext CDROM.  Can't download from ISP, since I can't get pppd to work. 
I downloaded source for rpm-3, gunzipped it, renamed it *.tar, tarred it with
tar -Uvh, and it looked like it extracted files, and put a file name rpm under
a bin subdirectory in the folder where I started.  But I can't get /bin/rpm to
execute.  Locate fails to find other copies.  This Linux stuff is *hard* for
newbies.

Subject: Re: Lilo boot sector after Windows 98 installation
Date: 25 Nov 2000 21:39:56 GMT

I have installed several versions of DOS/Windows (3.11, 95, 98) 
and Linux (Redhat 3.0, 5.1, Caldera 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, SuSe 6.1,
6.2, 6.4) and have decided that for ease of reinstallation
of Windows it's best to put Lilo on a partition rather than
on the MBR.

Every version of DOS/Windows I've installed (see above) insists
on taking over the MBR. Consequently, if you put Lilo on the
MBR and reinstall DOS or Windows, you lose Lilo. 

When I first set up a drive, I create a DOS/Windows partition 
just small enough to leave one-cylinder for a small 
partition below the 1024 cylinder limit.  For example, 
I usually create a DOS partition of 1022 cylinders. 
Then I install DOS/Windows there.

Then, I install Linux so that there is a one-cylinder partition for 
the directory "/boot".  That insures that I have enough room
for the kernel and all its paraphenalia, as well as the Lilo
boot loader on the "/boot" partition. 

The rest of the drive can be partitioned as desired. I usually
use Linux fdisk, or the equivalent of the installation program
to create any additional DOS partition I might want. Then I use
the rest of the drive for an extended partition. Inside the
extended partition, I put the swap partition(s) and whatever
Linux partitions I feel like having (including the "/" a.k.a.
the "root" partition.)

The advantage of this is that either the DOS "fdisk" or the 
Linux (or OS2, NT, etc.) fdisk can activate any primary partition,
including the DOS partition, the Linux partition, or whatever.
No matter what OS "owns" the MBR, I can use the fdisk program
of any OS to activate the primary partition "/boot" and get
Linux back up and running in just a few seconds.

Facil, eh?

Hi, Philo.

So far I've been using versions of Lilo that have the 
1024 cylinder limit. Found that the limit only applies
to the "/boot" partition.

To overcome the problem, I make a Windows partition
up to cylinder 1022. Then a one-cylinder partition for
"/boot", then it doesn't matter what you do with the
rest of the partitions. So long as "/boot" is entirely
within the first 1024 (1023?) cylinders, everything
else with Linux can be anywhere.

To overcome the problem that reinstalling Windows 
trashes the MBR, I don't put Lilo on the MBR.  Instead,
I put it on the "/boot" partition.  That way, when
the inevitable Windows reinstall comes around, it will
trash the MBR as usual, but then I can use DOS/Windows
"fdisk" to activate the "/boot" partition, and consequently,
Lilo works again.

I fiddled around with Grub on Caldera 2.4, but eventually
decided I like Lilo better, so went and bought a SuSE 6.4
box. Really like it. Have been avoiding the two SuSE 7.0
distros. Maybe some day, but in no hurry to change a highly
functional system into one that will take a few days to 
tune to my needs.

If X is installed on your system simply type "startx".
Linux will start X with the default window manager.
If you want to start a particular window manager type
"startx ???" where ??? has to be replaces by the wm
of your choice, e.g. "startx kde" to start X with KDE.

Hope this helps

You need a utility to change the settings for the card. 

For dos setup utility try 
http://support.3com.com/infodeli/tools/nic/3c509/3c5096.1.htm
and you want disk 2 (dos drivers etc.) After extracting the files
(either use "lha" or "unzip" on the .exe file - forget which) 
the program you want is called 3c5x9cfg.exe and you'll want the 
help file for it too. 

There is a Linux setup utility for the 3c509 but I don't have the URL
handy. If you don't have a dos boot disk email me and I can send
you a disk image of the disk that I use to setup my 3c509 card.

This doesn't answer the question you
asked further down your posting, but have
you checked the Debian web site for their
own mail server groups? They don't go
through Usenet but have their own groups
operated on their own servers. Maybe
someone there can give you guidance.

my old set-up  did use lilo and i had no trouble installing it...
but for various reasons i did not want to divvy up my harddrive...
i had some problems with windows being on non-contiguous partitions...
it's a long story...
and it's not a big deal for me to use the floppy...it's just that i'm a bit

Yea, but only if you have the "right" kind of BIOS.  It is explained in the
newer LILO's Documentation.  Otherwise you'll have to do the separate boot
partition withing the first 1k cylinders.  You may also have to use the
"linear" mode switch in your lilo.conf because who knows what your BIOS is
reporting to lilo since a 30 gig drive far exceeds the 8 gig size limit that
the old cyl/hd/sec type addressing has.
