The kernel is not initializing your parallel port. There is a recognized iomega parallel port zip attached. The kernel is initializing your zip drive? You say these worked in 1.3, but had you compiled your own kernel back then? a zip drive and a printer can not be used at the same time with stock kernel. It requires one of the following solutions: 1) install the parport kernel patch (search www.linuxhq.com) and recompile a custom kernel. I don't think the debian kernel has this addon installed by default. It allows you to share the parallel port between many devices. 2) Use modules for lp and ppa. They can't bothe be loaded at the same time without the above parport patch to the kernel so you have to swap them in an out: a) Do it by hand everytime you want to switch from using your zip drive to your printer and vice versa (painfully) b) Don't load either at startup (check /etc/modules) and let kerneld load them only when they are needed automatically. Each will be unloaded about 60 seconds after you stop using it. Still can't use them both at the same time without the parport patch, but swapping is automatic this way.

AWE64 Setup Solution...
To those trying to get their AWE64 working: 1) Since the 64 is pnp, the card must be initiallized before the kernel tries to initialize the driver. This means you must use something like isapnp to initialize the card and you must build the sound driver as a _module_ so that you can initialize the card BEFORE loading the driver 2) The dump from isapnp does not fully detect everything you need in you isapnp.conf file. Try modifying my config file. Most important is the IO 1 and IO 2 lines at the end. They are not detected by pnpdump. This will allow the kernel to detect the AWE -- # $Id: pnpdump.c,v 1.1.1.1 1997/09/14 15:27:30 fred Exp $ # This is free software, see the sources for details. # This software has NO WARRANTY, use at your OWN RISK # # For details of this file format, see isapnp.conf(5) # # For latest information on isapnp and pnpdump see: # http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/ # # Compiler flags: # # Trying port address 0203 # Board 1 has serial identifier 62 11 36 59 a4 c3 00 8c 0e #(DEBUG) (VERIFYLD N) (READPORT 0x0203) (ISOLATE) #(IDENTIFY *) # Card 1: (serial identifier 62 11 36 59 a4 c3 00 8c 0e) # CTL00c3 Serial No 288774564 [checksum 62] # Version 1.0, Vendor version 1.0 # ANSI string --Creative SB AWE64 PnP-- # Vendor defined tag: 73 02 45 00 # (CONFIGURE CTL00c3/288774564 (LD 0 # ANSI string --Audio-- (INT 0 (IRQ 9 (MODE +E))) (DMA 0 (CHANNEL 1)) (DMA 1 (CHANNEL 5)) (IO 0 (BASE 0x0220)) (IO 1 (BASE 0x0330)) (IO 2 (BASE 0x0388)) (ACT Y) )) (CONFIGURE CTL00c3/288774564 (LD 1 # Compatible device id PNPb02f # ANSI string --Game-- (IO 0 (BASE 0x0200)) (ACT Y) )) (CONFIGURE CTL00c3/288774564 (LD 2 # ANSI string --WaveTable-- (IO 0 (BASE 0x0620)) (IO 1 (BASE 0x0A20)) (IO 2 (BASE 0x0E20)) (ACT Y) )) (WAITFORKEY) -- -- Graduate Student[EMAIL PROTECTED] Department of Chemistry [EMAIL PROTECTED] Univ of Wisconsin-Madison [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] New Opcode #8: IPX - Increase Power and eXplode -- tagline 1.00 by xopy -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

The parport patch to 2.0.x kernels provides the ablility to use the printer on the passthrough port at the same time as the zip (I can print a file on a zip disk).

Well, I think you can setup smail to use procmail as the default local
delivery agent. Then have fetchmail pass mail off to smail. Each
user has there own .procmailrc and you're all set.
I have done this with exim and since it is based on smail to some
extent (config files are similar), you should be able to do something
similar to the following (in smail's config file):
procmail_pipe:
driver = pipe;
command = /usr/bin/procmail -d ${local_part},
user = root
# director
procmail:
driver = localuser,
transport = procmail_pipe;
These are from my /etc/exim.conf
You may have to modify them slightly for syntax.

It includes everything on master for 1.3.0 in main and contrib, but not non-free. non-free is called non-free because the packages in there have restrictions on distribution via CD etc. The Official CD for 1.3.1 will be the same way. The Official CD is made with the debian-cd package that simply creates 2 CDs (binary and source) from a mirror of master. It leaves out non-free.

Re: Is there a Debian 1.3 Unleashed available?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- On Mon, 16 Jun 1997, Erv Walter wrote: Will they include all the .deb packages? or just a selected few as they currently do. I hope they include all the stuff one finds at master in stable, non-free, etc. I don't have a fast connection from home so I prefer to download as little stuff as possible I have a copy of the Offical CD for 1.3.0. It includes everything on master for 1.3.0 in main and contrib, but not non-free. non-free is called non-free because the packages in there have restrictions on distribution via CD etc. Let me clairfy. non-free contains packages that have some sort of restriction either on use or on distribution or on modification. Not all of the packages in non-free can be put on the Official CD although some of them can. debian-cd leaves out non-free completely from the Official CD because it (aparently) was easier than manualloy deciding which packages to include and which packages not to include.

Re: Screen grabbers?

Once I shrink the size of the selection box sufficiently it creates an image. What determins the size limitation? As i recall, you can tell xv to grab an entire window and not do a selection. This is on the window after pressing GRAB? Anyway, choose entire window and click on the root window somewhere (background). It grabs the entire screen. I have used it several times.

Re: zip ECP/EPP driver?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- On Wed, 11 Jun 1997, Steffen R. Mueller wrote: Thus spake Karl M. Hegbloom ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Hi, Bruce Perens writes: If I'm not mistaken, the ZIP parallel driver is in the main kernel source now, and the Debian rescue floppy is zip-enabled. The parport and ECP/EPP ppa drivers are in the 2.1.xx kernels now. I've been using 2.1.36 for a few weeks with no problems. 2.0.30 has the older slower ppa driver. It works well, but is very slow. Maybe the ppa.c and ppa.h from kernel 2.1.42 can be used in 2.0.30. I'll give it a try tonight and will report what happened. The old driver is really extremely slow but nevertheless we were happy to get it running on our Debian Linux boxes. An easy way to get the EPP support in 2.0 kernels is to use the parport patch at http://www.cyberelk.demon.co.uk/parport.html for 2.0.30. It goes on without problems had no problems compiling. It includes the modifications to the ppa driver to use 32 bit EPP. I originally installed this patch just so I could use my zip drive and my printer at the *same time*. Now linux actually shares the 2 better than Win95 ever did (not a big surprise). The extra speed was an unexpected bonus. Anyway, try it out. You'll probably like it.
