loadkey problem after upgrade
Hi, I decided to give libc6 (without the dev) a try and upgraded a couple of progs (including the ones newly compiled with libc6). Now I don't get my german keybindings anymore (at startup). When I try loadkeys /etc/kbd/default.map at the console I get: /etc/kbd/default.map:1:parse error syntax error in map file default.map is a link to de-latin1-nodeadkey.map I have kbd_0.94-1 BTW: the keymaps are now gz as their name should imply. This wouldn't make any sense (for de-latin1-nodeadkey.map at least). .map == 2243 Bytes .map.gz == 2323 Bytes X is unaffected by this, but anyway I want to fix it...

Re: Metrolink Motif
Gernot, I also got Motif 2.0.1 from Metrolink and I actually have different question to you. What moitf archive you decided to install: rpm or tar? In any case, cpuuld you please check the user/group ownerships of the files from this motif archives. (like ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/Motif.* ) I myself got some strange numbers instead of some real users (like root) and groups (like bin). It happend with both rpm and tar archives. After I upgraded tar from 1.11.8-11 to 1.12-1 I managed to get reasonable ownerships (bin/bin) but only with tar archive. rpm still gives strange numbers. I used alien_3.3 to convert rpm to .deb, but since ownerships were still bad, I just made a simple slackware .tgz package, it is not hard at all, you just have to modify motif.install file to look like slackware's doinst.sh and repack everything in a single motif-2.0.1.tgz file. After that I again used alien_3.3 to convert that to .deb. Suprisingly, alien_5 didn't work for this purpors. It does not convert .tgz packages properly.

hdb trouble
I just upgraded to frozen. I rebooted and I noticed syslogd and kmsg took
a long time to load. Then I had some trouble reading /dev/hdb(my linux
drive) and I found this in /var/log/messages:
May 20 20:33:03 macrae kernel: hdb: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
May 20 20:33:03 macrae kernel: hdb: read_intr: error=0x04 {
DriveStatusError }
M
My machine froze soon after this and a reboot had trouble reading hdb.
Also /hdb emitted a clicking sound repeatedly.
I was eventually able to reboot linux.
Can I expect my hdb to fail soon? Could this have anything to do with the
upgrade
Thanks for any ideas

Network Driver Suggestion.
Had some trouble with Frozen. No driver for 3Com PCI network card (3C590C). This is a very handy card as it has all three interface connectors for ethernet. Luckily I had a NE2000 sitting around so I am grabbing the driver and kernel sources via FTP. Is it possible to include an option to the config menu to pull additional driver modules from an additional diskette, if needed, in future releases? For example, the menu might list several of the more popular NICs with a final option of Additional Modules From Diskette that might include less popular options.

I have already tried the 'append = ether=0,0,eth1 ' without any luck. On boot-up LINUX probes and finds the first card - but not the second. Thanks Scott. (A) If ne is already compiled in the kernel, the lilo append parameter should look like this: append =ether=12,0x280,eth0 ether=15,0x240,eth1 Of course, adjust for your values. The 0,0, eth1 lable assumes that the card is detectable and more than likely, you need two of those. If you wish to try your luck with autodetect, please verify the 0,0,eth1 syntax which is explained in /usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/Multiple-Ethernet.gz ): (B) If ne is loaded as module, then use this alias in /etc/modules : ne io=0x240,0x280 irq=15,12 Please refrain using both methods at the same time. One method precludes the other, there should be no need to pass both the append to lilo and the alias in /etc/modules.

Re: Newbie Question (sorta :)
I found it pretty easy: look in /lib/modules/2.0.30/net and see if the module that you need is there, if it is, edit /etc/modules to comment out the incorrect module, enter the proper one on a new line and reboot. If it is not there and if you have kernel source installed, go to /usr/src/linux/drivers/net and look at the source for the module to see if it has an example compile line at the top or at the bottom of the source file. Compile it, do a manual insmod to make sure that it installs OK, if it does, copy the .o file to /lib/modules/net and enter the line in /etc/modules as above and reboot. An example compile command can be found at the end of the 3c59x.c file (for example). if all that fails, make a kernel. On Wed, 21 May 1997, Adam Shand wrote: Hi.

I could not prove it right now because I have installed a DNS server on the Linux doing the masquerading but if I remember well my 486 was able to do DNS resolution before I installed the new DNS. So that was through the IP masquerading. I have the kernel 2.0.27 and I load some optional IP masquerading modules (mainly ftp). Most Linux documentation advises against running bind, saying that it's [...] get it workingit only takes a few minutes at most. I would rather say that it took me a several hours but perhaps I'm worse than average. BTW, if you're using diald you'll probably want to configure it so that it doesn't bring up the link every time you want to resolve a name. But you'll want to do that whether you're running bind or not. In fact if you're using diald having a local bind server is perhaps more trouble than it's worth. Here is why: - Either diald does not bring the connection up for DNS requests. Then applications will seem to hang if the result for their DNS query is not in the cache. They will stay blocked in some gethostbyname call until the DNS server times out which takes quite a long time. With some X applications you can completely freeze the X server (with netscape click on a menu. It does it's name lookup right here and it seems to block X). - The second problem does not depend on whether DNS bring the PPP link up. If your IP address is dynamically assigned by you ISP and you type ftp ftp.debian.org and the name lookup is returned by the local DNS cache then the first packet on the network is the first packet for the TCP conenction. But I noticed that in that case diald seems to send the packet with the wrong source IP address, i.e. that of the fake serial device instead of the one of the fresh new PPP connection. Consequence the connection will never make it, you have to abort ftp and restart it.

If you install libc6-dev, you'll also have to install the libc6 compiled

Also, has anyone got any war-stories about updating to 2.1.xx? (I know these are officially unstable kernels; I'm mainly interested in Debian- specific details.)

A big problem I once had that I first thought was forwarding was actually a routing problem. (I wasn't using IP_Masq.) ICMP (Pings) were coming in on eth0 and going out on the ppp0, but nothing was coming back. My ISP didn't have a route back to my client (which they said _was_ configured!

Jaldhar H. Vyas [EMAIL PROTECTED] responded:
There's a package in the net section of unstable called ftpwatch which
sounds like it could do what you want.
Thanks, I looked at it, but unless I'm missing something I don't think

think it can only watch whole directories or perhaps files by name (and
I'm not sure that it can watch files by name).

I found the dftp manual hard to follow so I might have missed something,
but I also don't see how dftp can be made to help me.
I wrote a little script to do what I want. It checks the available and
status files to see what packages are installed which are newer than
what are available (and therefore I manually installed from hamm) and
then it reads the hamm packages files and reports what newer versions of
these modules are available. I then wrote a short wrapper script to
fetch the hamm packages files and run the main script.

When I plug an RJ45 cable into my NE2000 card I get the following error over and over again until I remove the cable - eth1: Command unit stopped, status 4040, restarting. Has anyone else seen this, and were you able to fix it? Scott. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
Re: Help with IP masquerading

I could not prove it right now because I have installed a DNS server on the Linux doing the masquerading but if I remember well my 486 was able to do DNS resolution before I installed the new DNS. So that was through the IP masquerading. Yep, I have the same situation, and name resolution works fine. The only things I've found that don't work are ftp (dir listings only, file gets by wget and netscape work fine (which I don't understand)) and ping. This must be related to masquerading (i.e. not diald). For ftp to work you must load a specific module: ip_masq_ftp. I think this module also does the icmp masquerading (for ping). This is because ftp sends a port number and has the server call you back at that port. There are other specific modules for some other protocols. The modules that I have are: ip_masq_raudio, ip_masq_vdolive, ip_masq_cuseeme, ip_masq_irc. -- Francois Gouget [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.mygale.org/05/fgouget/ Wonder what to do with all your spare CPU cycles !
