What you are seeing is not normal output (on stdout), rather it is on
stderr (you just can't tell, since they are both to screen). You can
remove it by sending stderr to /dev/null (or somewhere else)

Wherever "grep -rl 'PATH=' *" says it is (will need altering for "PATH

Hi,
I've just installed RH7 with a Diamond StealthIII S540 card. Looks like RH
supports this card, but my XWindows doesn't refresh properly. When dragging

How are you editing the crontab entries? With "crontab -e", I hope. If
not, try either sending -HUP to crond, or restart it. (It may well be
that crond is not seeing any changes, because it doesn't know too look.)
Also, what kind of file is webalizer (binary, script), if script, what
kind of script language (tell us what the very first (everything up to
the 1st newline) line in /usr/local/bin/webalizer contains.

./configure --help will list all the options you
can pass to configure. You will see three of these for qt.
One for qt-dir, anotha for qt-include and the last for
qt-libs. Make sure you set all of these and run configure
again. Delete the config.cache before running configure.
A make distclean will also help.

hi,
Just want to report a problem i have encountered lately.
When i compile my kernel with lets say:
CONFIG_MK7=3Dy
I cannot load my bttv modules as the loader complains about a missing=20
symbol : mmx_memcpy
(btw defined in arch/i386/lib/mmx.c)
If i change my kernel config back to
CONFIG_M586=3Dy
the problem disappears.
Apparently there is a missing dependancy, or maybe i have missed=20
something :-(
Has anyone experienced such a problem ?

Sorry, excuse my dump questioning, but how do I change the variables for
qt-lib,qt-include and qt-dir. After just adding
--with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt1.45/bin at the ./configure command I just get the
same result?
Or do I have to set these Variables extra? But if, where?
Has anybody got an answer for me please?

Sometimes this is harmless.
If it's a problem, though, try a recent 2.2.19-pre* kernel
(from ftp.kr.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/alan/2.2.19pre).

I would have to disagree with Len on this one. In my experience (veeery
limited, take it with a grain of salt) Debian is much easier than Redhat or
Mandrake (the three distros I've ever tried to use). It was easier to get a
very basic setup under the Redhat/Mandrake type distros - if you want to
start using this box for something right now, maybe they are better. But I
found that it took me too long to get anything really working right - the
defaults almost never are.
I am just now learning Debian - its not as easy initially because it doesn't
have much by the way of a default configuration, but everything I have
working so far works the way I think it should. I have not tried Slackware,
Solaris or any of the BSD's, so I can't comment there, but considering you
have Unix experience, I would say Debian might be the best choice.
Just my personal opinion - J

Then you're set.

Tell correspondents to address mail to you @mydomain.dns2go.com.
Configure your mail server (sendmail, Postfix, qmail, Exim, whatever)
to accept mail addressed to mydomain.dns2go.com, and be sure your
computer and mail server are running at all times, and that you use
whatever update procedures dns2go offers to keep its entries up to
date. Also, don't forget security -- both on the mail server program
(keep it up to date, make sure it's not configured to relay) and on the
computer as a whole (set up ipchains or iptables firewall rules,
disable unused servers, etc.). Note that many ISPs that assign dynamic
IP addresses don't want their customers to run servers. If this is the
case and you're found out, you could lose your network connection.

I have a Caldera OpenLinux installation with a 2.2.14 kernal

using a SBLive! value card. I can play standard MIDI files using
the default MIDI player. But the Karaoke player complains that
"/dev/sequencer" is not available, and Jazz, the sequencer app,
claims that "/dev/sequencer2" is not available. Yet, when I
do a search of the "/dev" directory, I have the following
devices shown. (I do have a second Yamaha ymf724f sound card
which might account for the four midi devices being detected.)

You did it at the right place. It would look something like
./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt1.45 \
--with-qt-libs=/usr/lib/qt1.45/lib \
--with-qt-includes=/usr/lib/qt1.45/include
And do not forget to do a make distclean before
running the configure command.
