Mutt y caracteres iso
Hola a la lista. Pues resulta que estuve probando todas las posibilidades que he visto en la lista, para que se vieran acentos y eñes en mutt, y nada, solo veia puntos. Ayer recompilé mutt, con la opcion --enable-locales-fix, que segun la documentacion, es para libc5, pero funciona en libc6, y ahora ya veo todos los caracteres.

Si se hace esto y luego arrancáis otro sistema operativo (win 95, NT, dos, ...) pensará que la hora está mal (salvo para los que su zona horaria sea GMT). La solución pasa por elegir una zona horaria compatible y asegurarse que el firewall también tiene la hora bien. En RedIRIS hay un grupo de trabajo sobre NTP. Hay mucha documentación sobre el tema.

Re: Hard drive spindown settings
Hi... Um, if this is possible you might want to do a software spin-down thing. Have a daemon watch for disk activity, and if there is none in a set amount of time (30 sec?) the hard disk will be suspended and SIGSTOP will be sent to update. Then the daemon will send SIGCONT to update and spin the drive back up at a set amount of time later (30 minutes?). This probably requires some form of kernel hacking.

Lan Tcp/ip Question
Hi Everyone, Question for anyone who knows much about networking under Debian. I have two computer one is running Debian Linux. Kernel 2.0.29 and the other is running Windows Nt Workstation Sp3. Now heres what I'm trying to get done is the two machines to connect up and let the debian download stuff off the Nt machine(I'm in the process of replacing the NT machine and need to do some data transfer.) I've already figured out that I need samba, and have it installed but it doesn't work. So I was reading through some of the FAQs when it said to check and see if I can ping the other machine, so I try that. Both machines CANNOT get any response when they ping each other, I know the NT machine works because I can ping another Windows machine on the network. I get what looks like an activity light on the hub everytime I try something like ping from either machine. But machines can ping themselves. Heres the setup Windows NT machine - ip address 192.168.1.2 subnet 255.255.255.0 no gateway defined Debian Linux machine - ip address 192.168.1.1 subnet 255.255.255.0 no gateway defined Debian Machine is running a 3com 3c509b(Very close to the best isa Nic I've ever used.)

Re: Lan Tcp/ip Question
Hi... It may be useful for you to assign the NIC's address to something other than 0x300. A lot of different (very different even!) cards try to use 0x300 (sound cards, primarily). Also you may want to try pinging the machine's own address on the ethernet. See what that produces.

Thanks, Michael Yeah, 'gcc' (assuming it is written in C). Cross-compiling really means compiling a set of source files into an executable image that will run on a platform with a different CPU. This is very common in the embedded systems business (my work) in which you do software development on a Unix workstation, (less preferably) WinNT, or (even less perferably) some other box but the computer you are programming is something like a simgle board computer with a different CPU (like a Motorola 68040, 68360, 860, 68HC11, etc., etc.). The compiler running on the development workstation emits an executable image for the specific CPU that your target (the single board computer) is equiped with. You are really talking about using a 'native' compiler, one that emits an executable image for the same hardware architecture that it is being compiled on, and 'porting' your program to a different OS. So, you get your source files on the NT box and use your compiler/interpreter of choice (you haven't told us what language your program is written in) to cause that source to be converted into an executable image (this is the compiling and linking stages). We use the word 'port' to indicate that the software probably won't run unchanged on the new OS depending upon the extent to which OS facitilities are used and the difference between those facilities on the original OS vs. the new OS. I've written a LOT of Unix stuff (mostly for Sun OSs) and a LOT of embedded stuff (pSOS and VxWorks OSs) but not any Windows stuff (nor do I intend to, my employer willing), so I can't really give you any clue to what porting issues you might find going from Unix/Linux to NT. It really depends upon what your program does and its software architecture and what facilities from the OS it requires. If it requires very little from the OS, meaning that is uses mostly standard C library (again, assuming it is in C) stuff then it should be easy to port. Why not re-code it in Java, learn a cool language (if you aren't already Java fluent) and get the cross-platform stuff for free! -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null

Whatever you're using to get this performance number isn't measuring your disk throughput but your cache performance. Of course, if you meant what you wrote and get 35 mega bits/sec I could believe that, although if the drive was getting 5Mb/s to start with it's time for a new drive!

RE: Drive mounting
Should be: mkdir /dos mount -t msdos /dev/hdb6 /dos The mkdir command only has to be given once. The mount command needs to be given everytime you log in (or you can edit the /etc/fstab file so that the partition is automatically mounted). The second logical partition on the second drive is hdb6. The first logical is hdb5. The primaries are hdb1, hdb2, hdb3 but you don't have any primary partitions on the second drive (which is a good thing). Run cfdisk /dev/hdb to see which partitions are on the second drive and how /dev names are assigned. By the way, I would probably do mkdir /dos_e mount -t msdos /dev/hdb6 /dos_e instead. You can then mount /dos_c and /dos_d later if you want. You might want to reconfigure System Commander, it boots Linux off of a second drive just fine for me. (It should for you too as long as you can access the second drive via BIOS routines.) Just run dselect again and change your access option to point to your /dos directory.

Do you have the IP-Masquerade / IP-Firewall package installed? (I forget the actual name.) I had similar problems after installing the ipmasq tools.

The rules were so strict I couldn't get my windows machine (or any other) to talk to my Linux box via IP. I changed the firewall rules and that fixed the problem for me. You may need to experiment with the rules to get a set that works for you (or sacrifice the security benefits and change the default policy to allow - not generally a good thing).

Re: Fwd: LBA or not LBA

NORMAL For Dos, it is LBA - I know... Linux will recognize the entire drive either with or without LBA. However, if you don't use LBA, you will need to put the kernel in a partition which is in the first 1024 cylinders. If the drive is being used exclusively for Linux, this is not a big deal, but if you are sharing it with DOS you will probably want to run LBA in any case.

Pine not building from source
I have tried about three time to build a debian package from the Pine 3.96L files that I downloaded from the debian server. I have all three files it runs through the whole thing, but all I get is a tech-notes package. These are the files that I downloaded: pine_3.96L-2.diff.gz pine_3.96L-2.dsc pine_3.96L.orig.tar.gz Here is what I type. dpkg-source-x pine_3.96L-2.dsc It then extracts the files into a directory called pine-3.96L I go to that directory and type: dpkg-buildpackage It cranks through the building process than errors at the end. I have tried this on two different machines with the same results. I must be doing something wrong. Thanks, Keith -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null
Re: Pine not building from source
dpkg-buildpackage It cranks through the building process than errors at the end. Run it as a root.
