Linksys warning

2003-02-22 Thread davidaikema
After the comments on the list and seeing that the suport section of linksys's website 
listed a linux driver package for the card, I went out today and purchased a Linksys 
WMP11 (802.11b wireless pci card).

Upon inserting it into my machine, I discovered that I had basically a different card 
then the support section of the linksys website indicated.  This card (version 2.7) 
now has a broadcom chipset, for which linux support seems nonexistant at this point.

I just fired off a somewhat angry email to the company (I had a bad experience with 
one of their ethernet adaptors a couple of years back, which listed linux support on 
the box but refused to work with the drivers included on disc in the box or any other 
available drivers).  Hopefully I'll meet with success in returning the card.

Annoyingly, only this card and a DLink card (for which drivers were supposed to be 
released a few months ago but haven't appeared) seem to be locally obtainable (I 
haven't got a credit card, which makes online shopping somewhat akward).

 Here's a sys-admin question for you experts.
 
 A fellow at work has 10 Linux laptops he uses for portable training

 configuring and loading each one manually, one at a time. What would
 be the recommended simple, low-cost solution to both network them and
 then to image them down the wire? We'd like them all to be identical.

There is a tool specifically designed to do exactly this.  The tool is
called systemimager.  It requires a systemimager server, a golden
client, then uses rsync to make all the rest of the systems identical
(except for, obviously, the IP address).

Re: Linux choking on large files

2003-02-22 Thread Chong Yu Meng
Are you using an Intel NIC ? I had that same problem shortly before the 
NIC died !

I recently began having problems transferring large files to my COL 2.4.18
kernel and Samba 2.22.
I first noticed the problem when a large email attachment got hung in the
queue.  I tried to flush it but it was locked for sending.  (I use my server
as a mail relay for my network, along with fetchmail and procmail).  When I
tried to flush it, I would temporarily lose network access to my server.  No
Samba, SSH, or Webmin.  Then it would start working again.
Later on I was attempting to copy a 45MB file to the server and I lost all
connectivity.  Once the copy errored out and I canceled the copy, the
network came back.  The only errors I have found were on the console of the
server:
hda: irq timeout : Status=0xD0 {Busy}
IDE0: reset: success
In addition I saw this once:

ll_rw_block: device 03:03: only 512-char blocks implemented (1152).

Suspecting a hard drive problem, I changed to runlevel 1, then dismounted
the partitions and did an e2fsck -c on them.   It found and fixed a few
problems, which I suspected it would since it had been hard booted a couple
times in the last year due to power failures etc.
Also, I ran some low-level hardware diagnostics on the hard drives and they
came up clean.
Any ideas what may be causing this issue?  The logs are clean.

Upgrading your bios might have been the culprit especially if it has

manually.
I do so and during the process of fixing some inodes I get an
error message (apparently from the kernel on a specific page) and
the system hang up.
what's the exact error?  Did you perhaps compile the kernel with very

You may not be able to go from Duron to Athlon on that board.  Check the

 I though about upgrading the CPU to an AMD Athlon XP 2000.
 i.a. with the persons that sold it to me, it was a question of inserting
 the CPU and that's all ¡¡
 I put the CPU but the system did not boot: not beep, nothing (blank

Can't help with your current Linksys problem, except to agree I have had
similar problems with the Linksys chipset of the week not matching the
available drivers.

However, I notice that you have a shaw.ca domain name, therefore is
there a London Drugs located near you?  London Drugs may not be the
first name in computer parts, but if your London Drugs has a computer
section then they handle Netgear and SMC in addtion to Linksys and
D-Link.  Netgear works with Linux, I have been told that SMC also
works.  The Netgear and SMC cost slightly more than the Linksys and
D-link will typically cost.  I consider this to be acceptable because in
my personal opinion the Netgear and SMC are business quality products
whereas the Linksys and D-link are consumer products.  Your opinion may
vary.
 
I believe that Future Shop also handles Netgear.

Thanks for the suggestions.  There is a London Drugs about 5 minutes down the road 
from here.  IIRC, they may have had a few Netgear and/or SMC products, but they online 
stocked the usb and pcmcia products.  My linux server doesn't have any usb ports, 
although I believe it would be possible to pickup an adaptor card.  Perhaps I may be

Maybe what I should be doing is just hucking another ethernet card into the machine

Re: [HELP] extrange problem with computer

2003-02-22 Thread Javier Hernandez
Hi Neti and all other on the list,

More info about error messages.

This time I boot from the HD trying to boot the Suse 8.0 on
the HD.

 without knowing the error, its damn near impossible to speculate.

It asked me to run fsck manually and I did so. After a while I got
a complete hang up with the following messages:

Anyone is able to get any valuable information from that messages ?

I got errors on some memory addresses with memtest:

Failing Address:  078dc694 - 120.8MB
  070dc694 - 112.8MB
  068dc694 - 104.8MB

I am running another test with memtest. Not sure if it have to do with
the problem or not.

You might consider using USB cards on the desktop machines, if only to get
the antenna away from the metal chassis which will block part of the

CGI question: Popup boxes

2003-02-22 Thread Joel Hammer
Using CGI scripts on the server, written in bash, is there a way to tell the
browser to open a new window to receive output? 

For example, the script below:

#!/bin/sh
echo -e content-type: text/html
echo
echo
echo html
echo body
echo 'font color=blue size=4'
echo p
/usr/X11R6/bin/identify -verbose out1.jpg | sed -n 
/comments/{:loop;n;s/$/br/p;bloop}
echo font
echo /body
echo /html 

adds another window in the windows history. The user has to hit the back
button to get back to the original window. It would be nice to avoid this.

Any insights appreciated,

Thanks,
Joel

ayup, mimdefang has gone bezerk.  there were over 300 of it running just 
a few minutes ago before i stopped all the mta related stuff, and 
restarted it.  unfortunately, the load spiked up to 15.00 all over again 
just minutes later.  i don't understand how SuSE does stuff well enough 
to fix this.  on redhat this would be a piece `o cake to fix.

I suppose you could use a little bit of JavaScript to open a popup

I can sympathize. Seems like every time a config file is edited by hand, 
some built-in function of yast changes it back. Very frustrating. Also 
why the last SuSE box we have will be an XFS RH 7.3 system by this time 
next week. (To it's credit though, 8.0 had XFS support which has worked 
flawlessly, even after glibc upgrades)

I must have missed something here - my reader shows my post, then this one. 

Is there a problem with the sxs news server?

Thanks.

 yea, that's a kernel oops.  those are bad, cause either you have an
 unstable kernel, or a severe hardware problem.  you can run it through
 ksymoops to get a more human readable explanation.

Thanks for info.

 i'd say you've got some bad memory.  swap it out, and see if your
 problems go away.

That is the first thing I will do tomorrow. Change RAM and see what
happens.
