That is very interesting - I did use a high quality heat sink grease
when I installed the heat sink / CPU fan unit, but that was over a year
& 1/2 ago. I may try what you suggest.

Subject: CPU Monitor App
Date: Thu, 21 Jan 1999 02:50:56 +
Has anyone seen an app around to monitor stats such as CPU temp for
Linux. I made a quick and dirty app to read the following for my system
and was wondering if there was anything like it out there. If not, I
would be happy to make it available to everyone. Don't know if too many
people are interested, but I have an overclocked PentiumII Celeron 300A
running at 450MHZ and I'm always curious as to how my system is
running. Who needs an OS that can run for over a year without rebooting
if you are always rebooting to look at the stats in the BIOS? Here's a
list of the things the app should report:
CPU temp
Motherboard temp
Powersuplly temp
All power supply voltages
CPU fan speed
There are a few apps like this for Windoze, but haven't seen any for
Linux yet. I was going to write a small device driver so any user app
could get the stats. I plan on writing a GUI in with the gtk.
Don't want to waste my time if it's been done.
TIA,
Nathan

Can't help you with the zip-drive, but if your drivers are on the same drive
as your linux is, then copying them over is no big deal... Just mount the
windows '98 partition, and you'll be able to access all files on that
partition... /Check man mount for details, if you are unsure about mounting)

Hi,
I'm a new user user to Linux and I have just installed Red Hat 5.2.
I use a 17"" monitor with an old(?) MGA Matrox Mystique video card with 4Mo
video ram.
The largest resolution I can set with XConfiguator is 1024x768. Under W98, I
use the 1152x864 resolution.
So whenever I switch from one to another, I have to modify the monitor
settings.
Please, can anyone tell me how to get my Matrox mystique Card to work at
1152x864.
Many thanks

How old is your CD-ROM drive? I don't think many, if any, can read
a CD-RW disk created in a CD-RW drive. If you make a CD-R disk, then
I would think you should have very few problems unless you have a really
old CD-ROM drive. I have made several music CD's and they have played
in CD players several years old. I think it has something to do with
the reflectivity of the dyes used to make the CD-RW disks.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

I have a HP dj400c printer and had a bit of time getting it to print
other than ascii. I had 3 configuration problems:
1) I didn't have ghostscript installed.
2) I was using the HP 400/500/ printer driver that came with my
RH5.1 edition (what a mistake!)
3) I also neglected to edit my /etc/printcap file to point to the
new/correct driver I downloaded (magicfilter-1.2)
Note: I used the utility which automatically writes my
/etc/printcap file.
Anyway, I took care of all 3 of these problems and I can now print from
any appilication in Linux.
Hopes this helps.

There is a pretty complete set of READMEs in the 2.2 kernel
source in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/sound
They should tell you the defaults for your card, and the modules
that need to be loaded, and how to go about it. Several of them
have full scripts you can jump run to load the sound for
your particular card. Much easier than 2.0.*

I went through the Red Hat manual again and found that by reading carefully
that I fixed the problem. Thank you for all your help

Through my minimal research I have found that by entering at LILO:
linux mem=64M
however only 16M is only still loaded
any suggestions..
Go to /usr/src/linux
and run make config
and see if the third option "Limit memory to 16 meg" is set to
Y
It should be 'N'.

Recently got that printer for my home system. It works fine with
(I forget exactly which) one of the HP-LJ5*** printer drivers.
The 1100 implements PCL5e. Works fine both with normal text and
GhostScript pseudo-PostScript stuff. Nice 600dpi resolution, very
clean output, decent price, and fast 8ppm. But I've only had it
a short time -- no info on long-term reliability.

Apologies if this has been covered before, but can anyone tell me if
Linux yet supports DVD-ROM drives, and if a patch is necessary, where I
can obtain it.
Many thanks

Hey,
its seems that this is a hardware problem because NT fails while
installing, too :)
Have a nice day

I am considering installing linux on a friend's Compaq Presario 1681
laptop and was curious if anyone had any experience with one of these.
Specifically, I was curious if and how well the sound hardware works in
linux. I understand that the video chipset is a NeoMagic. Is there
anything else that I should be particularly aware of before I set out?
Thanks,
Nik

Subject: DPT 2021 on EISA Intel Xpress motherboard?
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 19:19:43 -0500
I'm trying to get Red Hat 5.2 to use the ISA connector DPT 2021, in an EISA
only, Intel Xpress MB.
The system loads/runs fine when the drives are connected to the Embedded
SCSI controller (Adaptec AIC7770) but I'd really like to use the 12 meg of
disk cache on the DPT. The load hangs on the scsi query when I use the EATA
DMA drivers on the install.
I've gotten no responses on the Intel Boxed server MB page, about Linux.
DPT was helpful except they don't have a driver for Linux.
I'd really like to use the DPT for the only scsi controller on this box.
Any suggestions are welcome.
bryan
p.s. the system was given to me so I don't want to spend much money on it
converting to Linux

I think whether Linux supports it or not would depend more on your
SCSI card. If your SCSI card is supported and works, then I would
think anything you hook up to it should also work.
