However, DDR memory provides the future potential now, that SDR is losing.
DDR is no longer 4x SDR prices. Typical 256Mb PC133 CAS2 SDRAM is about
�70. Typical 256Mb PC2100A (CL2) is about �165.

Beware of Crucial's 'bargain' PC2100 DDR RAM. It is 'B' type and also
(reportedly) uses compressed chips that many mobos will have trouble
addressing without BIOS upgrades. B type could require the whole system to
run at a slower bus speed to get proper CAS2 performance levels from it. It
certainly has little overclocking potential. It is strange that Micron's
distributors in the memory channel are only being provided with A type DDR
RAM at prices comparable to the rest of the market.

Hello all,
I want to install linux via NFS but my Ethernet card does not appear on
the list proposed. I have been told I need a drivers disk with a file
names drives.img on it. But I cant find it anywhere.
I have looked on the CD of my distribution but nothing there.
I have looked on the RH ftp site but but nothing there.
Does anyone know where I can find this ?

I've got a server/firewall running RH7.0 (yes, I know, know...)
About once a day or so for the last couple of days, I've come down to
find it with a blank screen in X (nothing but a cross cursor, and no
way to do anything else). I switch to terminal F1, which I hadn't
even logged into, and see the following message:
*ap++ == 0x55
Stopping myself...According to /var/run/gdm.pid, gdm was already
running (pid#) but seems to have been murdered mysteriously.
I hit return, and get a login prompt. It starts repeating the above,
without the *ap line and the "Stopping myself...
It just repeats the messages that the pid number has been murdered
mysteriously, with a different pid number each time.
The first time it happened, the screen itself went unstable, and I was
unable to do anything to get out except a hardware reboot. The second
time (this morning, I was able to reboot from a terminal.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem is, or what diagnostics I
can run to find out?

If you're trying to do this over a local network, look into the Samba

If you want to access DOS partitions on a machine from within Linux, try
looking at the "mount" man page...

Fire up KDE. Open a konsole... whatever mixer you are trying to run, execute

Do an lsmod command and see what modules are loaded. If lsmod lists your
specific audio driver... then perhaps there's other audio support missing.
On my laptop, with an ess audio chip... I have to have these drivers loaded
in order to have audio: sb, sound, soundcore and soundlow. My ess hardware
appears as a 100% soundblaster chip and no other sound chip driver is needed.
Your's needs a specific driver.
Since you're compiling kernels... perhaps you left out a sound resource that
you need. Like sound, soundlow or soundcore... maybe even sb.
Here's my .config for a 2.4.3 kernel... the sound section. As you can see...
most all of the sound drivers are remmed out. I only need the basic sound
modules including OSS support and the sound blaster driver. With that, my
ESS1878 works fab...

Hello! I'm trying to install SuSE and am very excited but have run
into trouble.. YaST gives me an error "Found no usable partition. Your
data will NOT be saved to disk!"
I know this has to do with fdisk, so I aborted installation and ran
fdisk and made partitions:
/dev/hda1 Linux(83) - 10 megs BOOT
/dev/hda2 Linux swap(82) - 100 megs
/dev/hda3 Linux(83) - the rest of the space... ~1.8gigs
Even still, when I boot from CD, SuSE installs to a virtual RAM drive
or something.. how can I get it to install onto the hard disk? If I
need to copy the files to the hard disk, how does one do that after
aborting installation and getting to a command line?
many thanks in advance!

Lilo works fine for multiple boots. That's what it's designed
for. It doesn't have the graphic pointy-clicky interface like
Boot Magic, but then again, lilo doesn't need 3MB of space on a
FAT partition, either...

What a load of crap!
Crucial uses Micron's chips that are of the highest quality. Some people have
got PC2100 from Crucial to operate at 2-2-2 at over 160MHz DDR FSB! The PC1600
was fine at 2-2-2 upto 150MHz as well, and even outperformed Samsung and
Hyundai's own proper PC2100 chips in compatability and performance/overclocking.
Crucial's PC2100 operates at CL2.5, but every person I have heard who uses it
says it does well over its spec at CL2.
Goto www.lostcircuits.com and look at some reviews of Micron RAM. It is far more
compatible with other motherboards, and can tolerate much stricter timings. It
also offers about a 2-5MBytes/sec performance advantage over other much more
expensive PC2100 RAM.

Gene Heskett sends Greetings to Ralf Wahner;
Ralf, the main reason youaren't getting any replies is the the group is
tired of continually downloading your 65k snapshots of your artwork.
Most of the mailers I've used go directly to displaying the picture with
the result being that we skip to the next message without ever seeing
the text.
A half a kilobyte of ascii artwork is sufficient. I've been sucking at
least 3 of these a day from my newsserver for about a week now, and
that totals up to well over a megabyte of data the rest of the world had
to pay money to download.
Also, I think, given the clues in your message, one should be able to
deduce what is needed to fix it. But I'm not the guru to do that. And
rather than echoing this message again, I'll clip it.
