de novato a gurus. Preguntas sobre redes
Querido debianeros: Bueno, la consulta, más que un problema en concreto, es sobre el tema de redes. Resulta que me estoy empapando sobre esto y hay varias dudas prácticas sobre varios puntos. Vamos que es como el alumno que pregunta inquieto a sus profesores. a) sobre el tema de enrutado y pasarelas. ¿es posible hacer una pasarela en un ordenador con una sola tarjeta de red a fin de enlazar dos subredes distintas?. En caso afirmativo ¿cómo se podría hacer? b) Habiendo una red (con direcciones 192.168.x.x) que quieren conectarse a internet y además tener correo externo e interno ¿como se haría a grosso modo la resolución de los nombres? es decir que primero se resuelvan las direcciones tanto de correo como de intranet primero y luego las de fuera en caso de no encontrarlas. ¿hay que construir un servidor DNS? ¿vale con solo configurar el /etc/hosts? Debo mencionar que la salida a internet sería en base a un modem ISDN, y creo que se comporta como una tarjeta más de red. c) cuando optar por DNS o por un simple /etc/hosts y /etc/host.conf? d) otra pregunta más (y perdonad el abuso de confianza) es el siguiente: como lamentablemente todavía se sigue apostando por puestos con el SO innombrable (si se le puede llamar SO), en el /etc/hosts ¿habría que definir todos los puestos en sus lineas? Seguro que me quedan más preguntas en el tintero pero por el momento a ver si puedo ir saliendo del atasco. Estoy leyendo varios manuales, entre ellos el que nos ha traducido LUCAS (y gracias a su traducción me entero de algo, porque yo de inglés no sé casi nada). Recibid mi gratitud. Juanma

Pregunto entonces, ¿para qué está el Xsession? Me explico, el fichero general /etc/X11/Xsession es el que se ejecuta cuando lanzas una sesión X (bien con startx, xdm, gdm o lo que sea, pero ¡ojo! sesión X, ya que gdm, por ejemplo, permite lanzar bien una sesión X, bien una sesión Gnome). El comportamiento general de cualquier sesión X que se abra en un host se controla, como root, editando el fichero /etc/X11/Xsession.options. En particular, llamo vuestra atención sobre la opción allow-user-xsession ... extraído del man de Xsession.options: If users have an executable file called .xsession in their home directories, the file will be executed instead of the default actions at the end of /etc/X11/Xsession. En mi máquina yo tengo definida esta opción y, luego, en mi $HOME, tengo el siguiente .xsession: #!/bin/sh # This starts pland on login. if [ -x /usr/bin/pland ] then /usr/bin/pland -k else echo 2 AVISO: No se encontró el demonio pland fi ### Put here background apps to start ### Put here your session manager app # Do not put it in background, or it wouldn't be a session manager /usr/bin/X11/wmaker ### Kill pland after session was terminated if [ -x /usr/bin/pland ] then /usr/bin/pland -K fi Para lanzar una sesión gnome, basta con cambiar la línea /usr/bin/X11/wmaker por estas dos: pon_aquí_tu_gestor_de_ventanas_compatible_con_gnome_favorito (en background) exec /usr/bin/gnome-session (algún día os contaré cómo usando el fichero autostart de wmaker y una macro de gawk consigo que al hacer login en el xdm se me coloque automáticamente un tema de wmaker elegido al azar entre todos los que tengo) 2) Mount: fichero /etc/fstab, opción de montaje auto. Ver man mount y man fstab 3) Novell: Hay una opción en el kernel (serie 2.2) que permite dar soporte al protocolo de Novell (IPX). Es algo así como CONFIG_IPX. Te recomiendo que uses make xconfig (si tienes TCL/TK instalado) para elegir las opciones de compilación. Esto lo encontrarás en Networking Options; The IPX protocol. Perdón por el rollo.

RE: Gnome, Mount, winSOSnt y Novell
Buenas, yo tb tengo Gnome y Wmaker, y lo hago todavia mas facil. Haces que la variable WINDOWMANAGER apunte a gnome-session, por ejemplo: WINDOWMANAGER=/opt/gnome/bin/gnome-session y despues desde la herramienta de configuración del gnome, eliges que arranque wmaker. De esta forma da muchos menos problemas, ya que el gnome se encarga de gestionar al wmaker y no te pasan historias como tener que cerrar los dos escritorios por separado, o que se peleen por poner el fondo de pantalla. Por defecto el gnome viene arrancando enlightenment, pero como ya he dicho en la configuración se puede elegir wmaker (si lo tienes instalado) y yasta!!! TA LUEG.

En caso afirmativo ¿cómo se podría hacer? No lo he probado nunca, pero si usas ip-aliasing deberia funcionar. Al fin y al cabo, lo que haces es crear varios interfaces de red sobre el mismo dispositivo fisico, y a partir de ahi continuas como si se tratase de tarjetas diferentes. b) Habiendo una red (con direcciones 192.168.x.x) que quieren conectarse a internet y además tener correo externo e interno ¿como se haría a grosso modo la resolución de los nombres? es decir que primero se resuelvan las direcciones tanto de correo como de intranet primero y luego las de fuera en caso de no encontrarlas. ¿hay que construir un servidor DNS? ¿vale con solo configurar el /etc/hosts? Debo mencionar que la salida a internet sería en base a un modem ISDN, y creo que se comporta como una tarjeta más de red. Yo optaria por hacer al Linux servidor de todo tipo de correo, y jugar con la reescritura de direcciones del remitente para el correo saliente. No se si el servidor DNS seria obligatorio, pero yo lo pondria de todos modos: te ahorras muchos problemas a la larga, y no te digo nada lo que es ahorrarse el fichero hosts en todos los clientes. c) cuando optar por DNS o por un simple /etc/hosts y /etc/host.conf? Salvo que sean muy muy pocos clientes, y no uses ningun servicio que resuelva obligatoriamente por DNS, siempre pondria DNS. d) otra pregunta más (y perdonad el abuso de confianza) es el siguiente: como lamentablemente todavía se sigue apostando por puestos con el SO innombrable (si se le puede llamar SO), en el /etc/hosts ¿habría que definir todos los puestos en sus lineas?

Re: Te reenvio esto: New Debian Maintainers ...
En realidad depende: - para paquetes dependerá de cuanto de populares sean, que va en proporción al número de bugs que encuentras de ellos. Y también depende de las ganas que tengas de crear nuevos. - para otras cosas (documentación, traducciones) depende de lo que quieras hacer (coordinar, colaborar)... - para las listas depende de lo activo que quieras ser, y si quieres discutir o sólo oír cosas. O sea, que para responderte rápidamente: el tiempo que cada uno quiera. Te contaré mi situación personal: Yo ahora estoy terminando el PFC y leo/respondo las listas en una media hora al día, como mucho, los paquetes casi no puedo tocarlos y no estoy arreglando muchos bugs (a lo mejor les dedico una tarde o dos al mes a los que mantengo , que son unos cuantos pero no tienen muchos cambios). Con respecto a la coordinación de la traducción, como, lamentablemente, no hay mucha gente colaborando ahora mismo, y yo no me puedo traducir el web entero, le dedico una hora o dos al mes. Eso es ahora, que mi objetivo es terminar el PFC. Ha habido rachas en que le he dedicado una o dos tardes semanales, y tenía tiempo para hacer nuevos paquetes a porrillo y traducir algunas partes de documentación y del servidor de WWW. Sobre conocimientos mínimos depende de la tarea. Un desarrollador no tiene por qué mantener paquetes, pero si lo hace es reconmendable conocimientos del lenguaje de programación de los programas (generalmente C, aunque pueda ser Perl, Python, Tcl/Tk, C++, Java...), de herramientas de configuración (autoconf, automake) y de la política de Debian en cuanto a paquetes. Un desarrollador que ayude en la tarea de traducción no necesita saber tantas cosas de bajo nivel. Un desarrollador que colabore con paquetes *específicos* de Debian (i.e. bootfloppies) tiene que saber *programar* (más que meterle mano) en el lenguaje de programación de éstos... así como conocer las librerías que se vayan a usar. Como antes he dicho, depende de la contribución que cada uno quiera hacer. Las puertas no están cerradas a nadie y en la puerta de admisión de solicitudes no pone imprescindible conocimientos de C/C++ :P Un saludo Javi De hecho, cuando termine el PFC quiero, no estando On Thu, Jun 08, 2000 at 06:05:23PM +0200, David Charro Ripa wrote: Os animo a todas las personas con ganas de trabajar y colaborar con Debian (en alguna de las miles de forma que podríais hacerlo) a buscar un sponsor y solicitarlo.

booteo directo
Muchachos he compartido mi PC c on dos sistemas operativos el amigo LINUX 2.3 en una particion (que ya estaba) en otra el BEOS 5 (nuevo). Por otro lado recomiendo que lo prueben ya que tiene un par emuladores que hace que uno pueda correr programas Linux y Win95, por lo que gente como nosotros cansados de estar obligados a usar cosas de MicroSoft hay otra alternativa mas ha nuestro querido LINUX, y lo mejor la edicion personal viene grata en varias revistas. Pero cuando termine de instalarlo me cambio el LILO por otro perteneciente a BEOS que me resulta mucha mas simpatico e intuitivo (muy parecido a BOOT Magic, pero integrado al Sistema Operativo) por lo que quiero volver a usar el LINUX pero no puedo por que le cambie el boot sector y se queda sin poder acceder al rigido, y ya me canse de tener que bootear a diskete.

Na prática, isto significa que usuários Debian que não sejam ativistas do movimento do software livre terão que obter pacotes conhecidos e tradicionais como o xv, Netscape, mySQL e pine de outras fontes - ou adotar alternativas como o ee, Mozilla, PostgreSQL e mutt, respectivamente. O assunto é controverso, e por um lado não dá para deixar de admirar a Debian pelo seu espírito idealista de software livre. Mas por outro lado, estes pacotes já fazem parte do panorama do Linux e podem fazer falta para muitos usuários que escolhem o Debian não por ser a mais livre das distribuições, e sim por sua excelente qualidade.

Some packages are good, but some are very bad, and usually there's multiple variations of the same package done by different people. One of Debian's strengths is that, although anyone _can_ make a deb, most don't have to because so much is included in the Debian system or associated and packaged by official developers. It does not have to be a commercial operation. I use LyX a lot. I also use a lot of other software packages that are not DFSG-free. However, LyX will eventually be GPL clean when it can link against GTK. Umm, LyX is DFSG compliant, it uses a modified GPL (the you may not link against closed source code sections were removed, check /usr/doc/lyx/copyright). It's only in contrib because it currently links to something non-free; otherwise, it'd be non-free or KDEd itself. If we strike out not only non-free, we'll lose programs like LyX that depend on non-free, and others that are licensed to be not only libre but gratis as well. Yes, they can be installed to /usr/local, but that loses the advantages of Debian packages: managed through a common interface (apt) and very likely to work well with Debian. Other packages may follow suit because the developers want to be included inside Debian. I'd support this GR if it didn't remove needed functionality that currently exists only in non-free. Make vrms standard, put non-free on non-free.debian.org, whatever, but keep the ability for Debian maintainers to provide packages that _officially_ work with the Debian system, with a centralized place to report bugs in the Debian packaging. -- finger for GPG public key. pgp9hgURaUk7i.pgp Description: PGP signature

--exclude behavior in tar seems to have changed
Hello, I always install Debian in one big ugly partition for convenience' sake. Perhaps not the recommended method, but that's the way I do it. Whenever I wanted to make a big tarball image of my current installation, I always would log in as root, cd to /, and submit the following command: # tar --same-owner -czpvf /syjet/debmain.tgz --exclude=tmp/* --exclude=proc/* --exclude=syjet/* * This would create an image on my syjet without including the junk in /tmp or /proc, or the new image itself. I have done this far too many times to count over the past 2 or 3 years, and it has always worked and proved very convenient for me. I recently upgraded to potato and it seems this no longer works. I just tried to do a backup, and all the files below the directories following the --exclude command now get included. /tmp and /proc are bad enough, but to include the partially created debmain.tgz from /syjet in debmain.tgz would very obviously be ridiculous. --exclude=/proc/* doesn't work, either. I re-read the manpage for tar, and it says: --exclude FILE exclude file FILE I thought that perhaps the equals sign had become unnecessary, so I tried it without, and all it did was tar up the /proc directory. May I ask why the behavior of the --exclude command has changed? Can someone suggest a remedy for my situation? TIA..

Re: secret data for php pages
If php is called as a cgi then it can be run setuid via suexec anyway.

There was another suggestion for running several instances of suid-ed apache on ports other than 80 and using the rewrite engine to transfer calls to them.

Is it really like that, or just the message got mangled? The biggest problem I've seen is VMware users using a configuration that tells samba to only use vmnet1 (host-only interface) and not eth0 when running a bridged configuration in the host OS. Here's how I had success getting a Win98 guest working: 1. Verify that a real Win9x system works when plugged into the same physical network as eth0 (or whatever you use for your bridged interface) 2. Set up your guest OS using EXACTLY the same settings (except of course the actual IP address). In my case, I already had DHCP and Samba/WINS running with external Win98 clients, so my guest OS popped right up when I told it to use DHCP for everything. I completely disregard the VMware Samba installation and just use the real stuff. I'd work on getting Samba to work with the external real machines first. Then getting a VMware guest to see it is pretty straightforward. Hope this helps! - Bob

Re: My quite ordinary comment about Re: GR to remove non-free...
I don't know about you, but I never got a non-free cd with my official Debian cd's. Non-free has never been a part of official Debian releases AFAIK. The problem friends lies in the fact that if support is withdrawn from the developers, MANY users will be left without any idea about what to do: The thing is simple, they will not know how to put the things in the right place, nor how to fix dependencies or conflicts. This is the meat of the problem for users. So, I propose that (developers, are you listening?) some kind of tool be developed for that matter. Otherwise, many will just start using alien, and then may be switch.

Hi folks, I'm sure I have seen something similar to this problem on the list recently, but I wasn't able to find anything helpful in the list archives. I recently installed a Matrox Mystique in my debian machine, which had been in my windows machine for a few years until I got a new card. I used to run the VGA16 framebuffer with no worries, but thought it would be cool to run in something other than minimum resolution and 16 colours on the console. I recomiled my 2.2.15 kernel, removing the VGA16 framebuffer, and inserting the matrox framebufer as a module. I rebooted with the new kernel, and at the lilo prompt typed in: linux video=matrox:vesa:0x114 (which should give me 800x600x16bit), according to the matrox framebuffer documentation in the kernel sources. The new kernel proceeded to load, but only with the standard VGA text console - no sign of a framebuffer to be seen. However, if I tried modprobing matroxfb, the framebuffer will load correctly, and can be set from fbset. There was no error or anything when using the lilo line (typed in maually at the lilo:¨ prompt, not appended in lilo.conf), it just didn't appear. My preference is to have it load automatically, which I'd believed it should do giving my lilo command line (isn't the idea that kmod automatically loads modules when needed?). Any idea what I'm doing wrong? If I'd compiled it in would it have made a difference?

hosts.allow not allowing hosts
Hi all, Like a good paranoid user, I protect my dial-up machine with both a firewall using ipchains, and also using tcp wrappers to add a further layer of security. Sometimes I find it convinient to scp things to my machine for the outside world, so I leave my ssh port open (I'm using gShield as my firewall, and highly recommend it). However, I've found that I can't connect my ssh port from outside when online. Digging around for a solution, I found that I had the following in /etc/hosts.deny: ALL: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 Which I vaguely remember having put there because of aforementioned paranoia. This shouldn't have been a problem, I wouldn't have thought as long as I had the correct line in hosts.allow, as the hosts_access(5) man page says that allow is checked before deny. However, I can't get the hosts.allow bit working. I've tried putting ssh: ALL and ssh: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 in hosts allow, but neither works. Commenting out the sole line in hosts.deny does, however, allow incoming ssh to work, so obviosuly it's just a matter of having the correct line in allow. Can anyone tell me what that line should be.

ipchians forwarding error
Hi gang, Our network has recently gone from a ISDN router (with an IP on out class C) to a ppp modem link (with an IP that is not part of our class C) for its gateway. The machine that is the new gateway has an ipchains firewall running, which I'd managed to munge together, which was broken quite badly by this change. This gateway machine also has a MASQ network connected to it via another nic, and lots of IP addresses for virtual hosting, so the setup is reasonably complex, considering my relatively limited understanding of all things firewall related (hey, I'm learning, but not quickly enough). The most significant of the ways in which the firewall broke when we changed to the modem was that none of the other machines on the public class C (as opposed to the MASQ'd one) were able to connect out through the gateway. They could connect to the gateway machine, but could go no further. Obviously, this caused a few small problems, especially for our PPP users! I came to the conclusion that it was the state of the forward chain which was the problem, as it was set to DENY. It was my impression that anything else was a Bad Thing (tm). Not knowing what else to do, I changed the default policy to ACCEPT, and it all worked again, but I fear that this is compromising the integrity of our firewall. Here are the relevant bits from ipchains -L (trimmed of all else): Chain forward (policy ACCEPT): target prot opt sourcedestination ports ACCEPT all -- 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.1.0/24n/a ACCEPT all -- localnet/24 anywhere n/a MASQ all -- 192.168.1.0/24 anywhere n/a I would have thought that the ACCEPT all from localnet to anywhere should have covered it, but obviously it doesn't. Can anyone let me know what I'm doing wrong, or even if I am correct in not wanting my default forward policy to be ACCEPT. Do I need to do something like ACCEPT all from localnet to gateway?

Re: Which baud?
Quoting Johann Spies ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): I am confused about what is exactly meant by the instruction in the documentation of my UPS: Port must be set to run at 2400 baud Yes, it would have been more sensible to write 2400 baud/bps, as they're the same for a port. According to the Serial-HOWTO.gz it seems to me that even fast serial port run at 2400 baud: baud The baud rate is a measure of how many times per second a signal, for instance one sent by a modem (modulator-demodulator) changes. For example, a baud rate of 1200 implies one signal change every 833 microseconds. Common modem baud rates are 50, 75, 110, 300, 600, 1200, and 2400. Most high speed modems run at 2400 baud. Because of the bandwidth limitations on voice-grade phone lines, baud rates greater than 2400 are harder to achieve, and only work under very pristine phone line quality. (This is the slink HOWTO, which has been superceded, in case you can't find this quotation, folks.) As it says, this paragraph is about modems, not serial ports. You need the next paragraph: bps The bps rate is a measure of how many bits per second are transmitted. Common modem bps rates were formerly 50, 75, 110, 300, 1200, 2400, 9600. Today they are 14.4K, 28.8K, 33.6K, and 56K (these do not correspond to the rates over the serial-port- to-modem cable which are in addition to the old modem bps rates (50-9600): 19.2K, 38.4K, 57.6K and 115.2K). Using modems with V.42bis compression (max 4:1 compression), rates up to 115.2K bps are possible. This is what most people mean when they misuse the word ``baud''. In other words, the serial port is dealing with: (50-9600): 19.2K, 38.4K, 57.6K and 115.2K). IIRC the typical relationship bps / baud used to be 4, i.e. your 1200bps terminal was communicating over the phone line at 300baud. Now that factor is higher. But when I do stty -a -F /dev/ttyS1 I get speed 38400 baud; rows 0; columns 0; line = 0; etc. ^ I think I warned you not to use the -F switch in my first posting to you. If you need to convince yourself, try typing the line you have typed above into a VC and an xterm. Then try and explain how the serial port speed changed when you switched between the VC and X! Alternatively, try running stty under strace and see if there's any trace of ttyS1 in the output. Now try replacing -F with and you should get the right answer. BTW when you said the script in rc.boot didn't work, that may be the reason.

I mean there must be a global configuration file GNOME uses... Not GNOME, but the whole system. You need to set the environments LANG, LC_ALL, LINGUAS. You can add it to you .bashrc file (assuming that you use bash) I'm not sure if this is correct for German, but I would guess: export LANG=de export LC_ALL=de_DE export LINGUAS=de Should be LANG=de_DE in the first case, I think. But the reason, why I contribute to this threat is another one. I encountered a similar problem, when I installed gdm (or xdm or wdm). The point is, that obviously, your .bashrc doesn't get read, if you use some display manager, so the language doesn't get set correctly. You can choose language in the gdm start-menu, but this didn't work, I got my session in english. I suppose one could set a system wide default for the language, but I don't want to do this, as I prefer to use the C lang-setting for root. So does anybody know a way to deal with this (get german language settings even when using a display manager)? Regards, Daniel I have a if [ -z $MANPATH ]; then export MANPATH=$(/usr/bin/manpath) fi in my ~/.xsession. I believe that you can do something similar with the C lang-setting. -- -- Shaul Karl [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- Shaul Karl [EMAIL PROTECTED]
2.2.15 kernel boot freezes at running ntpdate...
My friend has a Toshiba Tecra 8000 laptop. We are having problems with the 2.2.15 kernel. It boots fine with the 2.0.36 kernel, but recent attempts to boot the 2.2.15 kernel have it freezing at the line running ntpdate to syncronise clock or something like that. Now I suspect the problem has nothing to do with ntpdate. We have had problems with this kernel ever since it was compiled. Previously we have had the problem that the console keyboard freezes, making it impossible to use the machine, except when it was connected via ethernet and you telnetted in from outside. We overcame this problem by getting it to boot straight into xdm (kdm). This meant we didn't need to get near the consoles in order to use the machine. Of course we still couldn't use the consoles with much success. Recently, changing to a console results in a blank screen with a thin horizontal line running across it. Anyway, now it won't even boot at all which is a real problem. I suspected the problem may be an apm one, but when I booted with the option apm=off it still hung at the same place! Does anyone know what's wrong or what I can do about it? It's very frustrating. Clearly it's some difference between the 2.0.36 kernel and the 2.2.15, but if it isn't power management, what else could it be? Any other kernel options that could be causing the problem?

Someone said apropos clear. Here is how to make use of this BASH
command from within C++. I hope this is useful to you and isn't
beating the dead horse.
#include cstdlib
int main(){ system(clear); }
ought to do it. If your compiler doesn't like cstdlib, use stdlib.h
instead.

(I hope this is all of the above.)
Wouldn't a function in a curses library do this, If the terminal
type is known you could output (for instance) the raw vt string for
clearing the screen, I have seen this done but it might not be
universal like a curses function.

kernel: grow_inodes: inode-max limit reached
[Running Debian 2.2 (unstable) - with 2.2.16-ow1 (openwall.com security patch)] Hello, kernel: grow_inodes: inode-max limit reached It seems no one I've talked to can figure this error out. I'm getting this error every few days (sometimes every 5 days, sometimes in 3 days). It will start coming up 1 or 2 times, then 10-20 times, then programs stop loading, sockets stop opening, machine becomes not useable. I have to use the 'magic sysrq key' put my drives in RO and reboot. Then the machine is good for a few more days. This has been happening in every kernel. I have not tried 2.4 yet, but I imagine it may happen there. Does anyone have any sort of clue what would cause this? I've searched everywhere, asked many people, and still nothing. Now I'm trying the experienced people of the Debian mailing lists. Big thank you to anyone who gives some light to this problem. My linux server is becoming an NT box, going down every few days. Thanks -reid

new legacy Yamaha PCI module in 2.2.16 kernel won't link??
I have recently upgraded my kernel to the new stable version 2.2.16. I noticed the new kernel has new support for legacy Yamaha PCI sound, so I thought I would give it a try. There is very little documentation (only the comments in the driver code). I enable the driver in the configuration, and disabled my sound blaster support. I have a flacky SB16pro card and an on-board Yamaha 740 chip in the Intel 440bx mother board. So the goal is to switch to the onboard chip without having to purchase the OSS drivers outside the open source of the kernel. When I try an build the kernel, all goes well until the end when an undefined reference is found with the error message below. The ymf_sb.c modules compiles fine and is loaded in the sound.a library. So why won't it link? drivers/sound/sound.a(sound_core.o): In function `soundcore_init': sound_core.o(.text+0x3e5): undefined reference to `init_ymf7xxsb_module' make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
Re: kernel: grow_inodes: inode-max limit reached
Hi Reid, As you ask for clues, here goes my $0.02! This message comes from $KERNEL_SRC/fs/inode.c when the kernel tries to get more inode. Browsing the file I found a #define MAX_INODE (16384). What's your number? Maybe you can try increase this and see if the problem persist. You can see and maybe modify the /proc/sys/fs/inode-max. Mine (2.2.14) shows 16384, too! Just a clue!

wheel mouse
Hello everybody, Same question again, I have my (Logitech) wheel mouse working for a terminal window, and that is about it. I mean, it only works for a terminal window. It doen't work when I use: Netscape, gv, xdvi, emacs, I don't understand this. The funny thing is when i do imwheel -k in a terminal window. The wheel mouse does not work in terminal windows anymore. But this time it works in Netscape, gv, xdvi, emacs, ... I don't understand this either. Another thing I don't understand is: do I have to put a imwheel -k in a startup file. For now I have put it in the file .xsession (I try to remove it, but it does not change the behaviour of the mouse) Can somebody help me ??

loading modules
Hello Everybody, Another problem. I have found a way to get my sound card working. It seems that I just need to load the module esssolo1.o. (# modprobe esssolo1). The problem is that I have to be the root user to do this and I don't like to do it manually. I guess there is a better way to do this. I would like to have it loaded automatically when I boot my PC. Should I write a small script like: #!bin/sh modprode esssolo1 and put it in /etc/rc2.d/ or do I have to do something else? Greetings, Stefan Goeman
