I spoke too soon. After I did this, it did boot into 2.2.19, but I
couldn't get RP pppoe to run properly (i.e., it would connect, and
show up as a ppp0 connection in ifconfig, but I couldn't ping
anything, even with firewall disabled).
When I tried rebooting it, it wouldn't do it again. I went back in
with the floppy, and reran lilo, but no joy. I still cannot boot into
any of the images on my hard drive.
Any suggestions now?

I currently use Red Hat 7.0, but I heard Red Hat 7.1 finally supports 3D
acceleration ... as the reviews say, at least. Does anybody have
experience with RH 7.1 to confirm that it can use 3D accelerators
(specifically, an ATI Radeon), AND also, most importantly, does it support
OpenGL for hardware accelerated games such as Unreal Tournament from Loki
Games? Thank you so much. I'm really hoping that upgrading to RH 7.1 will
not only add Radeon support, but add OpenGL support so I can finally play
Unreal Tournament! Thanks guys! :-)

As a case in point, the 2.4.5 kernel contains patches for the VIA chipset
which work very well here. As pointed out earlier, with this included, one
does not need hdparm whatsoever on a 2.4 kernel. I still backup my systems
but I believe that the 2.4.5 kernel provides some manageable fixes for the
VIA issues overall.
Check out the first few lines of the driver file as it mentions in the help
item for the VIA drivers.

Also one could not go very wrong by looking at the VIa ide drivers contained
in the 2.4.5 kernel. The driver file mentions the versions of the VIA
chipset/southbridge that the driver now works with. I have been running
this driver on my systems with the KT133 southbridge stuff for awhile now
and have had quite good results.
>From sources I have read the VIA driver is evolving and support for several
of the chipsets was enhanced in the release that is in the 2.4.5 kernel.
One can definitely read a lot of posts on the kernel list and in different
places. A few things I have learned are that hdparm is not necessary in
tuning or running a system with the VIA chipset supported by the VIA
drivers. They take care of setting UDMA and also tell you how to change it.
The information at the top of the driver file is quite interesting.
I do think that one drive I have, a Western Digital 30g drive has some
problems and I noted early on several drives which were definitely not
recommended. I have twin Maxtor drives which work well and I ordered some
IBM drives to replace the WD.
All in all, the advice above is sage, and doing further research allows one
to find the issues and take the appropriate corrective action. Note that
the VIA driver has been modified and updated to include new VIA chipsets
with the 2.4.5 kernel release.

So get SCSI 8x2x2 and you won't regret it.

Welcome to Linux-land!
I read the other postings and here are my 2c.
Hardware - no problem.
Booting diskettes, if needed, go in Windows to DOS prompt and format diskettes
noting that there are NO bad tracks on them. Formatting in Windows spells
trouble later.
Distribution, as you are unfamiliar with any of them, you will have to learn.
So invest the time and go Debian, it will drive you crazy (coming from
MS-Glassware) for some time, but in the end it is worth it.
And get some reference book on Unix/Linux system administration, something that
you think only gurus use, in no time you will be reading it freely.
Have fun.

Tommy,
In Apache 1.3.14, you can disable directory browsing on a specific
directory by adding a <Directory "/dir"> entry in httpd.conf that does
not contain the control setting "Indexes".
Users will not be able to see the contents of the directory unless there
is a valid index file, such as index.html or index.htm. If there is an
index file and you want to still hide the directory, change the
permissions of the file so that they cannot be read by the apache user.
Example httpd.conf configuration.
<Directory "/home/richard/public_html/test/">
Options Includes
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
Files in test are not browseable, however if the user knows the exact name
of a file in the directory, they will be able to read it unless it has
permissions set to not allow the apache user to read.
Hope this helps.

Subject: Mandrake 8.0 keeps freezing and rpmDrake problem, please help!
Date: 14 Jun 2001 18:07:13 -0700
Hi, I have installed Mandrake 8.0 on my machine (PII350, 288M memory).
And ever since I began to install, I have been encountering innumerous
system freezes, and I could hardly use rpmDrake to install anything.
It took me about 12-15 attempts before I actually installed the
system. In other attempts, either the installation halts during the
copying of package, or the system freezes when I tried to log in.
After I finally got it installed, I tried to install some packages. I
copied the packages on my zip disk, and started rpmDrake, tried to add
a source (selected options: "removable", "zip", "/mnt/zip"). After I
clicked "ok" on the "define sources" dialog, it parsed the sources,
and didn't find any RPM on my zip disk! And, when I started the define
source dialog again, it does not have the zip disk source in it!
Then I copied the RPM's to my local disk, and tried to define a
"local" source. I clicked on "ok" again, and the rpmDrake freezed! I
tried to log out of X and come in again, but the system freezed right
away!
I cold booted the system, re-tried to open rpmDrake, and the system at
once freezed again!
Finally I re-booted and tried to install some packages from the
CD-ROMs. But for most of the packages (1 or 2 worked), the system
tries to open rpminst, and soon after it says that "an installation
has occurred" or "software already installed", although I am pretty
sure that none of them has been installed.
So what is the problem over here? I am about to give up and try
another distribution (I do not dare to re-install with the CDs
anymore, as I don't know how many attempts it will take me this time
to get it successfully installed).
Any suggestion is welcome, thanks!

Subject: New files date is UTC hours ahead of RTC and system time
From: William Paul Vrotney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2001 01:48:06 GMT
This is a RH 6.0 system with dual boot to Win98.
I have the problem that both system time (date) and RTC (hwclock) are
correct and both print the same times. But when a new file is created it's
creation time is 7 hours ahead of these (this would be exactly UTC since I
am in California where UTC is is 7 hours ahead). For example:
# date
Wed Jun 13 04:49:53 PDT 2001
# /sbin/hwclock --test
Wed Jun 13 04:50:07 2001 -0.762426 seconds
# touch temp
ls -l
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 bv bv 0 Jun 13 11:50 temp
So file temp's time 11:50 is 7 hours ahead of date's time 4:50. My
/etc/sysconfig/clock file is
UTC=false
ARC=false
Rarely do I boot to the Win98 partition but I needed to the other day and
then when I rebooted to Linux I started noticing this problem. When I
booted to the Win98 partition it popped up that the clock did not adjust for
daylight savings time and asked me if I wanted to have the clock adjusted.
So I accepted the clock adjust. Now, I don't know if this is what caused
the problem I am having. It is my understanding is that the only thing that
Win98 could do is set the RTC and nothing else should carry over to the
Linux partition. However, I just added this fact in case it has anything to
do with the problem.
I checked some of the Linux clock sites and nowhere could I find a remedy
for this symptom. So, does anyone have any idea what is happening here
and/or how to fix it?
Thanks.

I tried to install Mandrake 8.0 three times. Everytime, I was able to log
in, and get the KDE desktop, but it was ugly. Drop down menus were leaving
pixel trails on the open windows. The distro was not even installed 30
minutes before it was totally screwed up. It locked up once and I had to
turn the power off. I turned the power on and it booted ok, and checked the
filesystem and was able to boot. Again it locked up and I had to do the
same, but this time it found major errors in the filesystem and wouldn't
finish booting and said I needed to start fdisk and fix the errors manually.
Thinking this must have been some fluke, I busted out the CD's once again
and did another clean install. Within 20 minutes of the completed
installation I was getting out the trusty Mandrake 7.2 CD's. I have had no
problems with 7.2 other than mounting my USB Zip drive, and that has to do a
little with my inexperience in mounting and umounting filesystems. Maybe
KDE is the bad guy here and not the distro. I am going to try installing
the system without KDE and see if that helps at all.

RedHat 7.1 does not include DRI support for the Radeon; you need to
install XFree86 4.1 on top of it for that to work. I'd expect RedHat
to release packages for it RSN.
