I just got a new motherboard with onboard ncr53c810 scsi
|
||||
controller.
|
||||
SO I download sources for kernel 1.1.45 and the patches 46, 47, 48,
|
||||
49 and 50.
|
||||
|
||||
I patch my way up to 50 first and do a make config,
|
||||
then do a make dep ; make clean.
|
||||
|
||||
On a make zImage , it basically barfs all over me with some cpp
|
||||
problem.
|
||||
|
||||
So I clear the directory and patch my way up to 1.1.49 this
|
||||
time. make config works fine, make dep ; make clean workes fine.
|
||||
|
||||
make zImage worked until it barfed and gave this error message:

You might try piping the tar or cpio output through a dd filter with
|
||||
a huge obs, 1 MB or so. Then dd will wait for a full output buffer
|
||||
before writing it to tape in one long stream. Your disk accesses will
|
||||
alternate with your tape writes, but it beats lots of small stop and go
|
||||
writes.

Or even easier, hold down shift and press the Page-Up key. You can only
|
||||
do this after you have scrolled on a VT and not switched to another.
|
||||
Note that because the kernel just moves the start of the text buffer,
|
||||
you can actually scroll all the way back to the bios message (on AMI at least).

Subject: (extraneous?) double clicks freezing X server
|
||||
|
||||
I've got a recurrent and very annoying problem with X freezing up (it's
|
||||
happened two or three times today). Every time I have to hit reset, I fear for
|
||||
my filesystem.
|
||||
|
||||
It seems to be related to mouse double clicks that aren't needed/caught by any
|
||||
applications; although initially I blamed it on a couple of apps (xfilemanager
|
||||
and xfm), it happens too often. (Actually xfm's application workspace/shell
|
||||
won't respond to my current mouse at all, from memory)
|
||||
|
||||
I saw a post lately about "defining double clicks" or something to that effect,
|
||||
but I can't find the reference.
|
||||
|
||||
I have a sneaking suspicion its related to another, less urgent, problem which
|
||||
I've posted twice, to no avail. I've tried 1.1.18 and 1.1.45 kernels, and both
|
||||
have not run X properly. They start slowly or not at all (flicking from X to
|
||||
another VT and back gets it going) but don't respond to the mouse (or keyboard
|
||||
either in the case of 1.1.18, if I remember rightly). It's a dual mode ms/mouse
|
||||
systems branded CPC BTW. But the problem occurred with an ordinary MS mouse as
|
||||
well.
|
||||
|
||||
Sorry for occasional imprecision; I'm in a windows mailer.

Did you use "clock -w" to explicitly write the time to NVRAM? Using

"date" alone will not set the CMOS clock.

Any SCSI DDS drive can be used with the SCSI tape driver (it works here,

He should properly shutdown his system (that includes remounting root
|
||||
read-only). This remounting can be achieved with
|
||||
mount -o remount,ro -n /dev/his_root_device /
|

(this command normally takes place in a shutdown script (rc.0 for SysVInit

|

You just have to mount only clean file-systems ;->
|
||||
|
||||
The essential problem is that, at shutdown-time, it is nontrivial to unmount
|
||||
the root partition. In fact, you never unmount it, but you have to
|
||||
remount it read-only (mount -o remount,ro -n /dev/root_device /), thus marking
|

it clean.

Hope this helps...

Nah, iBCS has supported auto allocation of the major for a long time (longer
|
||||
than the kernel has in fact). So does the latest MAKEDEV script via
|
||||
/proc/devices. Just set the major number to 0 in the Makefile and run
|
||||
'MAKEDEV update' after insmod'ing.
|
||||
|
||||
The reason iBCS still has a hard coded major in there is because it still
|
||||
supports earlier kernels. On kernels that do not have the auto allocation
|
||||

|

Date: 23 Sep 1994 19:38:58 GMT
|
||||
|
||||
Hello all,
|
||||
|
||||
I'm setting up a machine to act as an internet host. I expect this
|
||||
machine to see a pretty high load and I want to make things as easy on
|
||||
the machine as possible. I would like to setup certain daemons to be
|
||||
running automatically instead of being started as needed by inetd.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
how would I go about doing this?
|
||||
|
||||
I un-commented out the telnet line in /etc/inetd.conf and SIGHUP'd
|
||||
inetd, then I manually tried to start /usr/sbin/in.telnetd but it gave
|
||||
me some strange error and bombed. what am I supposed to be doing?
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
E-Mail reply's please

|

The 'other' computers on your network, the 'two linux boxes and an
|
||||
alpha', need to have the default route point to the one IP address
|
||||
assigned to the eithernet adapter on the system with the PPP link.
|
||||
|
||||
You should have built the kernel with IP forwarding on the kernel with
|
||||
PPP. The other kernels should not be built with IP forwarding.
|
||||
|
||||
I do not know about the situation that you have here. You seem to have
|
||||
all of the IP addresses in the same IP domain, 192.315.98. If you have
|
||||
the default route set correctly on the other computers on the network,
|
||||
then you may have to forgo a network route on your ethernet for the
|
||||
specific host routes to the indivual IP addresses going to the
|
||||
ethernet. It will take someone who has more knowledge in ethernet
|
||||
routing than I to answer that question.
|
||||
|
||||
>192.215.98.2 is the service provider.
|
||||
|
||||
What's going on with your service provider? This is very strange that
|
||||
you would be given an IP address on the same IP domain as theirs. They
|
||||
must do host specific routes for all of your IP addresses to you. What
|
||||
a waste.

Oh well, then you probably won't see this.

There's an even simpler way. (Linux 1.0.8, XF 2.1.0)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Hit Alt-Ctrl-Backspace (kills X)
|
||||
2. As soon as you see the text screen, hit Ctrl-Alt-Del.
|
||||
|
||||
I've also had no problems shutting down, or rather rebooting with
|
||||
|
||||
shutdown -r now

There is
|
||||
going to be a problem, too, with OS/2 3.0. As anyone who's already
|
||||
tried the beta will already know, the current read-only hpfs
|
||||
filesystem does not work with Warp's HPFS.
|
||||
|
||||
The patch for that will show up when Linus gets back from Australia,
|
||||
at some point. I'll append it below if you're in a hurry.

|

|

I think this may be a bug in the 'ls' you're using. I don't see
|
||||
this problem -- I can ls and cat these files just fine. I can't
|
||||
connect to the directory 'maintenance desktop', though -- this is
|
||||
a bash bug. Luckily, I do not want to cd to this directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Those are the extended attributes (in other words, your settings
|
||||
noterbook for the file). I think they're stored in an odd way on DOS
|
||||
FAT filesystems, which is where you see this error. However, I seem
|
||||
to remember seeing somewhere an announcement of a msdos fs update that
|
||||
fixed this. Am I making this up, someone?
|
||||
|
||||
Aha. I hallucinated this too. If it's on a FAT partition, that's a
|
||||
more likely story.
|
||||
|
||||
(Sorry about the delay on this, by the way -- I had a hard time getting
|
||||
them to ship Warp II to my correct address.)

Has anybody got TIA working with Linux's SLIP? I can't seem to get it
|

to work properly. I can telnet to the TIA server/host immediately
|
||||
after starting SLIP, but shortly afterwards the telnet session hangs,
|
||||
and further telnet to the server/host hangs.
|

|

[TIA is like term except it's slightly more transparent than term and with
|

some limitations. For further info ftp to marketplace.com]

THanks, Delman.
