If you have 2 PII 400's, why do you want to overclock them? Isn't that
fast enough? I don't think you will see much of an improvement if you
did overclock them to 450. If you still want to overclock it, go to the
asus site (www.asus.com) and they have the jumper settings. Hell, I
have
a single PII 400 and am pretty happy with the speed.

Maybe your DAT drive is getting bad?
If you can, test the DAT drive on another OS or machine, that will tell
you if it is an OS issue or a DAT drive issue.

Hi,I'm presently setting up a new server with Redhat Linux 5.2 and doing
level 0 dumps on tape with an HP DAT8 with dds-1 tapes (2gb-4gb compressed).
The dump and restore works fine on the machine.
Then i put the tape on another server which has an hp surestore 2000 tape
and it is unable to read the tape.Both tapes need to be compatible! Is there
any way we can verify the setting for a tape ex:blocks, compression, etc...
I think the HP DAT8 uses compression by default and that is why I can't read
the tape from hp 2000!
I would appreciate technical advice on this matter!

The SupraMax modems are winmodems. However, the SupraExpress 56i is a

You might see if your local computer shop has a second-hand SB16 ISA
non-Plug-n-play. This is the definitive sound card for most systems,
and just _works_. Plus, at www.creaf.com, they have a nice archive with
pictures and pinouts of every card Creative has ever shipped, so setting
jumpers etc is no problem, even if the card comes with nothing.

Give some more details. What is the tertiary IDE? A Zip drive? Another hard
drive? Where do you put LILO? On the MBR or the first cylinder of the
partition?
LILO cannot see past the 1024th cylinder, so for a partition on a big drive, you
must make sure to put LILO on the MBR, or have the Linux partition being before
the 1024th cylinder.
If it's removable, like Jaz or Zip drive, then you probably have to specify some
options upon boot. I've never used these, but there are Howto's for them.

The aha152x SCSI driver should work, although you may need to use
isapnptools to set up the card, and you may need to experiment with
different interrupt settings.
You'll need SANE v1.0 (http://www.mostang.com/sane/), and the

to take the Snapscan backend to v0.6.

Linux does not support USB. USB support is still in development.
True you can load an imac was Linux, but any USB devices will not be

The iMac keyboard and mouse are on USB. I *really* wouldn't say
that Linux runs on an iMac w/o USB support.
That said, I work with USB developers (including chip designers,
