Since I installed Kppp in its lates version 1.6.24, every user needs the

Date: 20 Mar 2001 10:56:45 -0500
I am trying to get software RAID0 (no level will work) started under kernel 2.2.18.
Every time I have done this before, it has been a snap, this time it's being a pain.
When I try to do a mkraid /dev/md0, I get the following error:
mkraid: aborted, see the syslog and /proc/mdstat for potential clues
Of course, neither of these logs say anything about the error.
Can someone help??
Thanks!

Add the names of all the machines to it. Add the machines to /etc/hosts
too as some authentifications rely on that (rpc.nfsd and rpc.mountd
spring to mind) under many circumstances.
It should be a simple list, one name per line.

One would have to read some code to find out. The version I have used
for years was authored in 1993 ... well, I'll be. That's the same authors
note as in the slackware 7.0 template of hosts.lpd.
You might try the IP addresses.
OK then .. I never ever got anything but plain hostnames to work over
the years in that file, but then I never tried hard.
The only references to the file that i can see are in lpd(8).
If you really want to avoid writing all those hostnames down, I seem to
recall some sort of readymade lpd proxy exists. And of course you can
get people to use rlpr instead of lpr (it does the obvious). And
you can use firewall forwarding to make requests from any machien on
your net look like they originated on the machine itself, which should
do the trick.
Mind you, a straightforward
ssh printerhost lpr < file might be best nowadays!

Your drive "D:" is in the extended partition. It could not possibly

I knew that, but I didn't feel like digging in the archive for this
group whithout an approximation of what to look for. Searching for
"DMA CDROM harddisk" will probably end up with more useless posts than

Uhm, yes. It's an Intel Pentium at 166Mhz.

Let's have a look at this one. /proc/pci says:
PCI devices found:
Bus 0, device 0, function 0:

Does this ring bells to anyone? It did to me, but I was confusing

In /lib/modules theres a file that has all module dependencies listed (its a text
file). Perhaps in this file there are modules being referred to that dont exist on
your system or havent been loaded (arent't listed in modules.conf). So you could
either adjust that file with depecdencies so thats in sync with your system or you
could build any modules required and add them to your modules.conf file.

A newbie question.
Is there an easy way to install a printer when X windows is not installed so
printtool is unavailable.
Struggling with RH 7 and a Hp Pavillion N5290 laptop.
Everything works great in the text mode - but no Gnome, hence no printtool.
Have hopes of getting Gnome up and running some day, but for now need my
printer working.
Any help is appreciated.

Well, you will have to strace the mkraid. It should be obvious.
Last time I had this kind of problem it was due to
1) malformed raidtab ("raid1" instead of "1")
2) devfs-ization
3) wrong tools .. 0.9 instead of 0.4 and vice versa, leading to wrong
ioctls
4) wrong raid patches, wrong kernel, etc. etc. etc.

One other thing, (sorry i am not on my home system so i cant give the specific help i
would like) use grep and pass it a character pattern matching the unresolved symbols.
Open the file thats returned and comment the symbols that arent required.

Half an hour if you're lucky. If your device isn't one of the ones
ordained by Redmond, you might be lucky to get it working at all.
Or if you do get it working, half of its features don't work.
Then, to the hours you spent trying to get it to work, you get to
add the time you have to spend going out shopping for an Officially
Sanctioned device (which for some reason doesn't work nearly as
well as the one you already have, which takes you even more time
to find out and work around), plus the time you have to spend
earning the money to pay for your new toy.
Yes, toy. Look at computer ads nowadays - they portray the whole
thing as some wonderful game. You're not spending a lot of time
working on your machine - you're wrapped up in play. That's how
the whole scam is disguised.
And next year you get to do it all over again, because by then your
new device will be declared obsolete. So you get to buy an even
newer device, but then you have to buy a new version of Windows to
support it, and you have to buy a new computer because the old one
doesn't have enough CPU power or disk space to keep up with Windows'
ever-increasing demand for resources.
That's what happens when you step onto the path of continuous
forced upgrades that Microsoft has prepared for you. And it
all takes time - and money - whether you realize it or not.
>Isn't that a great waste of personal life as well as social
>resources?
As opposed to the time people spend re-booting after Blue Screens
of Death (and re-doing whatever work vanished when it happened)?
Or re-installing Windows, which seems to be the standard solution
to any little thing that goes wrong? Or re-formatting hard drives
and starting all over from scratch? I know some professionals who
reformat all hard drives every six months on their Windows machines,
simply because Windows is so poor at garbage collection that after a
while everything bogs down. Is that not also a great waste of time?
Microsoft's greatest crime against humanity is getting people to
accept frequent crashes and re-installations as normal. Believe
me, this leads to a lot of lost time - but people have been
brainwashed into not noticing it, so they complain about how much
time it takes to set up Linux instead. This, of course, is exactly
what Microsoft wants.
The advantage of Linux over Windows is that once you get it set up,
it tends to stay that way. Linux is not controlled by some central
organization that has a vested interested in it breaking. Yes,
breaking. Microsoft wants you to be happy with their products
only until a new one comes along. Then you'll see their own ads
slamming previous versions of their own products, the very ones
that last year they held up as the solutions to all of mankind's
problems. What can you say about a product like Windows 98 when
the proudest claim Microsoft can make in their own ads is that it
doesn't crash as often as Windows 95 did? If this happened in any
other industry, the company that tried it would be either laughed
out of business or smothered in lawsuits.
Those of us who use Linux do so because we're tired of all that.
At least Linux gives us a choice, something which Microsoft simply
can't stand. They've done their best to destroy all competition
and silence all opposition, because if people have an alternative
it would deny Microsoft what they consider to be their rightful
100% share of the marketplace. Oh, they throw a dollar or two
at companies like Apple, but only to keep the federal antitrust
lawyers off their backs. Remember, too, that all of their charitable
donations are a drop in the bucket compared to their immense financial
resources. If you look at it as a percentage of your total worth,
Bill Gates giving $100,000 to a charitable organization is the
equivalent of you or I tossing a dollar into the Salvation Army
pot. Besides, those donations always seem to have a hook attached,
even if it's nothing more than providing Windows boxes for the
purpose of indoctrinating new computer users.
I did get going there, didn't I? If you're a troll, you're very
good. I guess that's another example of how Windows wastes our
time - it gets people like me ranting at questions like yours. :-)

Then I tried to print with Netscape using the "lpr" command and it prints fine, it
also prints colour. But when I try to print from the consol (lpr <filename> or lpr
-Pascii <filename>), it doesn't print. The printer automaticaly turns on but iy doesn'
t print. When I write something at the "Advanced Editor" I choose print, and it gives
me some choices (ascii, auto-colour, etc.) and only one works, i think the auto-colour.
If I do the same with "Text Editor" and choose to print with lpr it doesn't print,
although at Netscape it works. I give "lpq" at the consol and it doesn't give me a
print job. At /var/spool/mail/ I take new mail which says "printer fault during job
..." or "apsfilter:unable to print job ..." but I have problems only with the command
line and these two programs, Netscape, as I said, works fine.
Why is it happening? Should I configure my printer again? My Linux distro is SuSE 7.0

Can you elaborate on the solutions to problem #2?
What is devfs-isation?
My raidtab is good, and I am using raidtools 0.9; isnt' that the most current version?
My kernel (d/l 2.2.18 from kernel.org) already has raid support in it).
Thanks!
