dmesg: ohci1394: fw-host0: Set PHY... ???
Hi List, I'm not an expert. Does anyone know, what this lines mean: ohci1394: fw-host0: Runaway loop while stopping context: ... ... ohci1394: fw-host0: Set PHY Reg timeout [0x/0x4000/100] ... I find them repeated a lot of times in my dmesg. Is that normal or I'm missing something? Thanks, Alberto -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: kernel compilation buggy?
Got it! I update the system and it upgraded initrd-tools, plus I updated the kernel-2.6.11 also. Then I copyed the new default config from /boot and I'm now running it.

The debian kernel 2.6.11-686 works, so I supposed the .config file should be ok... Am I wrong? It's not the first time I compile the kernel in the debian way. I always used a custom kernel...

kernel compilation buggy?
Hi, I just tryed to compile the 2.6.22 kernel with make-kpkg and the default config file. I doesn't boot giving endless loop with and error apparently related to proc and init. I cannot be more precise cause I don't know where to find back what it was on the console... Is that a known problem of this moment?

bluetooth how to?
Hi all, I'm trying to make working the bluetooth of my laptop. I read some documentation, and it seems simple... - I'm running sid, kernel 2.6.11-686. In that kernel the default config options seems to be ok for the bluetooth. - I installed bluez-utils, bluez-hcidump, bluez-firmware - The modules are running: rfcomm, l2cap, bluetooth but: when I try to run hciconfig it does nothing. Did I missed something? I see there's a patch package, do I need to install it? Thanks, Alberto -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

howto: printer on another computer
Hi, I'm running cups and it configured perfectly the network printers I have around. But there's a printer plugged to another computer running redhat and I don't know how to make it working.

Great, that's what I was looking for. To answer to all the kind people who helped: I don't use gnome or kde, but windowmaker, so I don't have nautilus or k-something.
