The original versions of both UNIX and MS-DOS/Windows did not automatically
detect all hardware and were often a pain in the arse to get working
right...
They are both still here aren't they?
Anyway, how do you know things like your harddrive and sound and such are
working if your video card is not working?
Why did you buy a "gaming" video card specifically for a unix-based system?
I mean its not that they won't work, just a bit overkill I think...Try
buying a cheap $20 card with an S3 or Trident chipset and you'll not have
anymore problems, plus you can use your voodoo card for your Nintentdo on
Steroids, uh I mean Windows.
I can't help you with your modem, I haven't used a modem is so damn long
that I forget how they are set up. But isn't a Winmodem designed to be used
nearly exclusively by windows? I don't know, just asking...Its like the
e-machines PCs which won't boot if you try to upgrade the hard drive because
the hard drive contains some bios level code and the PC won't even start let
alone boot unless its there.

I have some experience in using NTFS in Linux.
Yes, you can mount NTFS partitions, BUT:
- NTFS 4 (NT 4) is mountable in R/W mode, but this is VERY experimental
- NTFS 5 (Windows 2000 = NT 5) is mountable only in readonly mode.
For this, you have to recompile your kernel with NTFS-support or you have
to build the modules.
As you are using Windows 2000 you cannot mount the partition in R/W-mode
and for all other users who run NT 4, I suggest you only use the writing
option for experimentation!
Good luck!

I have not seen OSPF implimented in Linux as of yet (if anyone knows of a
source of info please let me know--I am just curious). I think you may be
able to do some load balancing using ip route 2--I'm not certain, I haven't
tried it. The thing is it would seem to be easy to balance outgoing traffic
since you can just send it out whatever interface you want without changing
the source address. To balance the incoming traffic you would have to
change the source IP address of the packets going out. I don't know how to
do this with masquerading. In NAT we can define pools, but I think Linux
masquerading is limited to one IP (I could be wrong). If you could somehow
specify pools in masquerading then that should be all you have to do I
think--it should try to balance out by IP, and then the incoming would be
sort of balanced. The only thing is that to be real intelligent you would
have to monitor what is going on to guess what is going to come in based on
the packet that is going out. To do this completely I would think it would
be very complicated.

We have one DSL connection and will be adding another one, for the extra
bandwidth and redundancy.
My question is..
I want to use both DSLs at the same time, as to increase our bandwidth
And, if one DSL goes down, the other DSL still continues running...
I assume this is LoadBalancing..but Im not sure...
Now the $64,000 question is....how do implement this?
I know you guys will provide a 'Linux solution' but I'll take any solution
at this point..
I was thinking of making a Linux RH7 server with 3 NICs...
NIC1-connects to DSL1
NIC2-connects to DSL2
NIC3-connects to Internal LAN via IPMASQerading
I have setup LinuxRH7 servers to 1 DSL and IPMASQeraded it...
So I can do 95% of this project...Its just that second DSL line...
What in the Linux RH7 server is going to "bond" the two DSL lines together
and make them operate as virtually as 1 DSL line? Is it going to be OSPF?
Some program I have no seen yet?? If one DSL line goes down, will it keep
running??
If the Linux RH7 server crashes..doesn't that kill both DSL connections??
Help appreciated guys!

Yes, I do.
You forgot to recompile Apache with MySQL-support.

Subject: Ack! Newbie linux sound troubles
Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2001 08:21:44 -0700
Hi everybody,
Sorry about the last posting, now I REALLY feel like an idiot (just
kidding of course). Anyway, this is the message I tried sending to
everybody regarding some mandrake linux installation woes:
Thanks for being patient.
I tried lurking and finding a solution to my problem this way, but that
didn't seem to do the trick. So, here I am, with a newbie question
regarding the installation of my sound card in mandrake linux.
What basically happens is as follows:
In KDE, after I first installed linux on my machine, I used DrakConf to set
up my Vibra Soundblaster 16. I used the same irq and dma values that I have
in windows and it worked just fine. However, upon rebooting the computer,
the sound no longer worked. W hen I tried using DrakConf to install the
card again in KDE I got the following error:
sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': Device or resource busy
Finally, even stranger, I do not get this error when I attempt to install
the sound card in gnome, windowmaker, or any of the other environments.
However, even if I use these other environments to configure the sound
card, the sound never continues workin g after I reboot the machine.
So far I've attempted the following to solve my problem (based mainly on
reading this newsgroup and others):
1. Run sndconfig as root and in console mode. While the installation, once
again, went without problems, this did not solve my problem.
2. I also followed the how-to guide and ran pdpdump which I later
configured. Once again, this didn't solve the problem.
3. Finally, I tried to change the permissions of /dev/dsp in case the
problem had to do with how they were set. Once again, this didn't help, but
it did lead me to another problem which I think may be related to why I
cannot get sound.
It seems that after I shutdown or close from the windows, the file
permissions I set did not stay set in their new configuration. Hence, I set
the permission to 660 (read and write for user and group) and the next
thing I knew, it was back to only read a nd write for user.
I used dmesg to see whether there were any warnings and found that there
was something wrong with my partition table (I am appending the output of
dmesg to the end of this message).
I suspect that the problem is that the things I've been saving with respect
to the soundcard are either saved and overwritten or not saved at all. This
is just a guess mind you, I would appreciate any help in fixing this
problem since it is distressing.
I'm running Mandrake 7.2 (2.2.17-21) on the following machine: A Pentium
166 with 64 megs of RAM @ BIOS 13.5 gig harddrive in which windows 95 is
running on the first partition (around 8 gigs worth) and linux is riding on
the remainder 5-6 gigs. A matrox mystique graphics card. The computer is
acting as a personal workstation (I'll probably have questions for you
folks later when I try to get this thing connected to the school's slirp!).
The soundcard is a Vibra SB16 set for IRQ 5, DMAS 0 and 1, and an I/O range
of 220,330, and 338. The install programs tell me that there are no
conflicts with these addresses.
Anyway, as promised, here is the output of dmesg.
Thanks in advance,
Alex

I'm creating a network appliance that has roughly 20GB of disk space. At each
system boot, I want to recreate the filesystem on the 20GB of read writable
partition. The facts are below:
1. The space is big
2. It will only store trival logs that are needed
3. It does not need to be saved at reboot
4. I do not need supreblocks all over the place.
Questions
1. Can I use jsut 2 superblocks
2. Can I create a loopback image, format it, and dd just wat is needed so
at bootup I can use dd instead of mke2fs?
3. Can I get this to happen at bootup in under 10 seconds?

As the other message suggested, took a look at filesystem properties as
permissions, file ownership and groups. A reasonable resource would be
http://www.hermanbruijn.com/Docs/ADMIN/ch04.htm
system commands are enclosed in " "
My solution would be to create a group testing "addgroup testing"
make users UserA and UserB members of that group, by editing the
/etc/group file with "vigr" (as long as you don't mind ending up in vi)
the line with testing should become
testing:x:some_number:UserA,UserB
then make UserB the owner of the directory and files, with read-write
permisions, make testing the group with read-only permissions, and
limit access to only the owner and group.
"chown -R userB.testing /testing"
"chmod 750 /testing"
To change the permssions to 640 (-rw-r-----) of all files in the
/testing directory and its subdiretcories:
"for file in $(find /testing -type f) ; do chmod 640 $file ; done;"
To change the permssions to 750 (drwxr-x---) of all directories in the
/testing directory and all subdiretcories:
"for dir in $(find /testing -type d) ; do chmod 750 $dir ; done;"

Note the lead designation like " 00:0a.0 ".
Next look for the information block beginning with 00:0a.0 ,
when querying again with:
# lspci -nv

The modems known to be supported by the ltmodem.o driver have
ID number pairs shown in the following Table. Ignore the leading 0x.
The id pair 11c1:0440
is within the range: 11c1:0440-045c
and hence should be supported by ltmodem.o.
