WordProcessor + SoundCard + ZIP PRINTING
Hi. Do you know if there is any good word processor for Linux? (I mean like WordPerfect, or, at least, like windoze WordPad). If so, where can I find it? I also have another question. I finally recompiled the kernel (I needed it to support my soundcard). When finally I could recompile the kernel with a normal size, etc., I see that I can't hear anything through my speakers. The computer does as if the soundcard were recognized (for example, when I type bplay sound.au or cat sound.au /dev/audio it does like if it were reproducing the sound. But I can't hear anything. It's not a speakers problem or even a hardware problem. It's software. My soundcard is a Logitech SoundMan Wave, fully compatible with SoundBlaster16 with MPU/OPL4 OPL2/OPL3 (or something similar). The adresses: I/O: _220_ (can be 230, 240 or 260, IRQ: _7_ (can be 3,5,7), DMA:_1_ (can be 1,5, (7)). And another question! I use a Iomega Zip 100MB parallel port drive. I can use it with fstab, but I cannot print having this drive connected to the parallel port. I've heard that there's a patch or something that you can use the printer and the Zip. I know I can't use them at the same time, but it doesn't matter, I wanna use the printer... snip... If you need more information (my config file of the kernel) please mail me or mail the list. Thank you very much, have a happy New Year! --- Àlex Maneu ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) MAN Soft Magazine http://www.maptel.es/pagpersonal/mansoft Going to the future, living the present --- -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Installing the kernel
Hello. I have to install the kernel from a kernel CD of the official CD set of Debian GNU 1.3.1 distribution. How do I do it? I have to install it to recompile it to support my soundcard. Any suggestions?

RE: ViewSonic 15G S3 video card...

I've got the boot magazine disk version of Debian installed on my 586 and so far everything's working great, except for I'm trying to get XFree86 up and running and am beating my brains out here trying to come up with the correct modeline combination for this monitor and card. I keep getting the squashed mode when X starts 'cause I'm obviously not getting the correct modeline set up. Does anybody out there have a similar combination they would be willing to share their modeline settings for? I'm very new at this. I think I've probably edited XF86Config at least 73 times by now, still not getting it right. Hi!I have a ViewSonic 6E Monitor, and my video card is an S3 with a 805 Chipset. I had the same problem, and edited XF86Config several times until I got the solution. You can have my XF86Config, try to start X with it, or simply have a look at it to see what's wrong with yours. -- --- Àlex Maneu ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) MAN Soft Magazine http://www.maptel.es/pagpersonal/mansoft Going to the future, living the present --- # XF86Config # by Alex Maneu December 1997 # # Per a les targetes S3 amb chipset 805 # i funcionament a 16 bpp # # Works with S3 cards with a 805 chipset # at 16 bpp # See 'man XF86Config' for info on the format of this file Section Files RgbPath/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi EndSection Section ServerFlags EndSection Section Keyboard ProtocolStandard XkbRulesxfree86 XkbModelpc101 XkbLayout es EndSection Section Pointer ProtocolMicrosoft Device /dev/mouse EndSection Section Monitor Identifier Primary Monitor VendorName Unknown ModelName Unknown HorizSync 31.5 VertRefresh 60 Modeline 640x48025.20 640 660 756 800 480 491 493 525 Modeline 320x240 0.00 320 336 384 400 240 245 246 262 doublescan EndSection Section Device Identifier Primary Card VendorName Unknown BoardName S3 86C805 (generic) Ramdac ch8391 Clocks 25.20 28.32 39.70 0.00 50.40 76.72 35.68 44.60 130.27 119.55 79.40 31.22 109.74 65.12 74.94 94.57 # Use Option nolinear if the server doesn't start up correctly # (this avoids the linear framebuffer probe).

Image Sound
Hi to everybody. I still have some questions about Linux, I think they'll be easy for you to answer. -I want to put a picture as the background of X-Windows, or simply change the background color. Where is it specified? Which files must I edit? -XV: I've been looking for this program, but I don't have it. I've been searching it in DSELECT, but I couldn't find it. Where is XV? -Sound Card: My soundcard is a Logitech SoundMan Wave 100% compatible with Soundblaster. Which files must I edit to use it? (for example to listen CDs, etc). Must I have installed some special package? Thank you very much. --- lex Maneu ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) MAN Soft Magazine http://www.maptel.es/pagpersonal/mansoft Going to the future, living the present ---
