Hello

before I log in as root.

Help! - I have been trying to get my Mitsumi CD-ROM to work with Linux for a
|
|
long time. I started with the early SLS release but could not get any help
|
|
from the supplier. I now have acces to the net (obviously) and had just
|
|
downloaded the Slackware release 1.03 (kernel .99pl13). This says it has the
|
|
support built in for the Mitsumi CDROM but when I boot the message:
|
|
|
|
mitsumi init failed ... appears.
|
|
|
|
I have tried some different IRQ settings to no avail.
|
|
|
|
Could somebody please send me the info I need to get this working?
|
|
|
|
Apart from the above Niggle I find Linux very interesting and useful.

Hi,
|
|
|
|
I've recently installed SLS on my system, it's great! Thanks to all the people
|
|
who've worked on it, and continue to do so!
|
|
|
|
As well as installing the basic version I've been collecting together the
|
|
latest versions of some utilities, the Kernel etc. from a number of ftp sites.
|
|
|
|
My problem is that disk space is severly limited on my PC!
|
|
|
|
According to the notes with the kernel I should use GCC 2.4.5 to compile my
|
|
kernel...
|
|
|
|
I've ftp'd the GCC 2.4.5 source code and transferred it on to the PC,
|
|
after uncompressing and untarring it I'm left with about 15 megs of disk space;
|
|
this isn't enough to do the job!!!
|
|
|
|
Aside from buying a new hard disk, which I can't afford for a couple of months
|
|
(but I'm painfully aware I need one!), is there a 'cut-down' version of GCC
|
|
2.4.5 just for linux/i386 platforms, or even better an executable that's
|
|
already been compiled? I`d need to get hold of it via a bitftp server as I
|
|
only have internet mail access.
|
|
|
|
One other question: I notice at the end of the acitivist digest which I get
|
|
that the current kernel version is up to patch level 19, I've only managed to
|
|
find up to pl12; where are the best places to find the latest versions?
|
|
|
|
Any suggestions are welcome
|
|
|
|
thanks

Sure just set your initdefault to 6 not 4 ....

Try updating your kernel to 0.99.13, which fixes at least one memory
|
|
management bug which can result in a dead machine in pl12. Pl13 seems
|
|
to be reasonably stable - I haven't had too many complaints yet,

Try getting the 0.99.13 kernel, and use that instead of 0.99.12. That
|
|
is likely to stop the hangs.

NAH !
|

rc.net is for the network only, and as far as I know, xdm is the X daemon .. ;)
|
|
|
|
*IF* you would start xdm from a script at bootup, put it to rc.local, where it
|
|
belongs ...

Title: Help: SIOCADDRT error while executing /etc/route in net-2
|
|
|
|
Summary: SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable - error occurs during
|
|
execution or rc.inet1 while booting. I am using kernel level
|
|
0.99p12 and net-2 TCP/IP software. Any help will be appreciated.
|
|
|
|
Hi all,
|
|
I have been trying to install the NET-2 TCP/IP package on
|
|
my Linux box (which is a 486/33 MHz SVGA box). The ethernet
|
|
card is an SMC Elite Plus (WD 8013 - I believe). I have
|
|
recompiled the 0.99.p12 kernel to include my ethernet card, and
|
|
the boot time message claims that it has the correct IRQ, base
|
|
memory address and base I/O address for the card. subsequently,
|
|
within rc.inet1 I run ifconfig for eth0 with the IPADDR, the
|
|
NETMASK and the BROADCAST address set correctly. (I tried both
|
|
with and without broadcast, w/o any luck). It seems that the
|
|
ifconfig works correctly, because running ifconfig after booting
|
|
with no arguments shows two interfaces, loopback and eth0, with
|
|
the correct parameters. Subsequently, rc.inet1 tries to run
|
|
/etc/route as
|
|
/etc/route add 130.183.80.62 (which is the IP addr of my box)
|
|
and that generates the error
|
|
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable.
|
|
any executions of route generate the same error.
|
|
|
|
I know that the ethernet is correctly connected and it works, since
|
|
I can use a DOS program to run the ethernet card from my DOS
|
|
partition, which works just fine.
|
|
|
|
I would appreciate any help in the matter.
|
|
Thanks a lot

Unfortunately, dhry typically doesn't find the system-specific value of

HZ, and it will default to 60 in this case. This would have happened under
|

Linux (which defines only CLK_TCK, not HZ, in its include files); perhaps
|
|
*BSD defines HZ, or perhaps dhry had been built with -DHZ=100 under *BSD.
|
|
This is still the only way to explain the original discrepancy in timings.
|
|
|
|
A quick check of MIPS Ultrix 4.3, SunOS 4.1.3, NextStep 2.1 and Vax BSD 4.3
|
|
reveals that all of them use HZ=60 when returning a value via times(),
|
|
by the way; my guess at HZ in BSD was based on Vax BSD.

What does ET4000 have to do with anything? NCR chipsets are fully supported
|
|
by the XF86_SVGA server.

THIS is the only correct statement in this posting. For whatever reason,
|
|
the mouse can't be accessed. Since I don't run Linux, I can't help with
|
|
this.

c) Either install the PEX part of the distribution or relink the server
|
|
with PEX excluded (using the Link Kit). Then beat up the SLS distributer
|
|
for only including half of the package.
|
|
|
|
It is essentially harmless, though.

Not a timing error. There just doesn't happen to be a valid clock selected
|
|
by index 0x06 on this particular board. Not at all uncommon.

Help needed:
|
|
|
|
My Linux machine is running very impressive. But I have got a problem with my
|
|
mouse.
|
|
I have a three button MS compatible serial mouse. When I run x-window (twm),
|
|
the left button works fine, it can highlight text in xterm and textedit well.
|
|
However, when I press right button, it will not paste. At the first, I suspected
|
|
the problem is my mouse. Then I changed another mouse, it is the same. Anybody
|
|
out there can tell me how to solve the problem? Thank you very much.
