Sound
Hello all, I did a dist-upgrade to woody and now alsa is acting flacky. /etc/init.d/alsa start does not work. Loading the modules by hand will allow me to get sound working, but my microphone no longer works. I get the following errors when trying to use the alsa mixers: alsamixer: failed to open mixer #0/#0: Success amixer: Mixer 0/0 open error: No such file or directory As added info, I installed a stock kernel from woody (2.4.16-k6) plus the alsa stuff that matched. Any clues? Regards, Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Galeon
I've been setting up plugins and helper apps for Galeon and am having a problem with xmms. Clicking on a link results in opening a load file window usually pointed to /tmp with some foo.m3u files listed rather than parsing the mpegurl to xmms. Clicking on one of them will start the stream Saw only one reference to this in a Google search that stated to run galeon-config-tool --clean. Tried it but no go. It works fine using Mozilla. I'm running galeon 1.02, libranet 1.9.1 upgraded to woody, and Mozilla Debian Package 2:0.9.7-3. Anyone have any clues? -- Regards, Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Netscape
Hello All, I've installed netscape from frozen and for the most part is works fine. Except when I try to access help or Netscape,s home page. What happens is the page will start to load, then a new Netscape window will open showing my home page. I've completely deleted Netscape from my system, including .netscape from home directory and reinstalled. The problem persists. Any suggestions? Regards, Michael Montz
Network Problem
I have a small network that looks like: workstation running Linux and Win95 ethernet hub ethernet server runing linux modem isp The server runs ipmasquerade and works fine. The problem is that whenever I login to the server from the ws, no connection is made untill the modem connects to the isp. I first thought the problem had do do with loging in using the server name, but even if I use the ip address as in rlogin 192.168.0.1, same problem. Any suggestions on what causes this behavior. Regards, Michael Montz

Just a guess. rlogind requests the clients hostname from the source address (see man rlogind). If the client's hostname is not listed in the /etc/hosts file, then it will try to get it from the default nameserver, which I assume is on the other side of your modem at the ISP. The quick-fix is to add your Linux/Win95 client's hostname as an entry in the /etc/hosts of the server, assuming that you don't have any DNS servers running on your local network. Thanks Mitch, that solved the problem. Sometimes I think I'll stay a newbie forever. Although that may not be such a bad idea. Could the Zen saying Zen mind, beginers mind be translated to Zen mind, newbie mind. Just a thought. Regards, Michael Montz
Newbie question-Compile error
I seem to be missing something on my system, but I am unable to figure out what it is.

Network Puzzle
I have a Linux server setup with a hybrid cable modem (down cable/up phone line)using ip masqurading. Works great. The puzzle is that whenever I telnet to the server from my computer, the modem connects to the ISP. If the modem doesn't connect right away, the telnet session will delay starting. This is the routing table of the server. Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 207.50.40.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1500 0 0 eth0 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1500 0 0 eth1 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 3584 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 207.50.40.183 0.0.0.0 UG 1500 0 0 eth0 Any clues? -- Regards, Michael

This is Linux to Linux. Haven't tried it with Win95.

What type of machine is running the telnet client? My win95 machine starts to dial my modem everytime I telnet to my linux system. I'd be curious to know if you have that problem with a windows telnet client or another linux system. --David -- Regards, Michael
Copy, paste, print
Anyone, When copying and pasting from Netscape to a an editor, ie kedit, nedit, gedit. The text does not automatically format to the set column width of the editor. Therefore copy, paste, print produces a page with the right half of the text missing. What am I missing? -- Regards, Michael

FTP install problem
I've got the initial part of the installation done. The system boots just fine. When I run dselect, choose access, then ftp, the following error is returned: Query/setup script was terminated by a signal:segmentation fault. I've also chosen a mounted filesystem and received the same error. Reinstalled three or four times to make sure I didn't miss something. Actually I didn't get the error the first time, but I had not configured the network properly(wrong IP address info). Any suggestions? -- Regards, Michael
