Per message 58795 I posted about not being able to get NFS to mount,
|
|
I also discovered when I boot .99pl13, it does not say anything about getting
|
|
an interrupt. .99pl9 says GOT IRQ 5. .99pl13 doesnt say anything.

|

I have a Colorado Jumbo 250 (QIC-80) 125Mb Tape-Streamer.
|
|
My question is: Is there any Linux package system (SLS, etc)
|
|
that has a suitable script to install the whole LINUX system
|
|
from a tape *directly* (only using a 'disk1' booting diskette)?
|
|
|

Thank you in advance for any information.

|

Hi,
|
|
I have been running Linux for a while, and it runs great on my 486SX-33
|
|
w/ 4Meg of RAM. But I can't run X because my sound card conflicts w/ my
|
|
serial mouse.
|
|
I have an 8-bit Thunderboard sound card and a Logitech serial mouse in
|
|
my system. I know that the problem is w/ the sound card because when I took
|
|
it out, X-windows came up fine. Also, when I boot Linux, it says that it
|
|
has found a network card when it does an ethernet probe. It didn't do this
|
|
when the card was removed (I don't have an ethernet card). I've tried
|
|
changing the IRQ address and I/O address, and even inserting the card into
|
|
another slot, but with no avail.
|
|
I've heard that I have to re-compile the kernel for Linux to properly
|
|
recognize my sound board. I would greatly appreciate anyone out there that
|
|
could tell me exactly how to solve my problem, as I have no idea how to
|
|
re-compile the Linux kernel. Please email me replies, as I don't read this
|
|
group often enough, and the files on our news server aren't kept that long
|
|
due to tight disk space. Thanks in advance.

Judging by insert-mode and some keybindings (which can be completely

A better arrangement is:

|
|
GNU-emacs is of an other order than the rest, with its M-x compile,
|
|
the Grand Unified Debugger, tags, ange-ftp, complete configurability
|
|
and reprogrammability, so that you can emulate any of the editors that
|
|
are more down to earth.
|
|
|
|
Some may think it is nonsense to read mail and news from within an
|
|
'editor', but the same set of keybindings everywhere, and complete
|
|
integration with the editor is a great blessing.

I hestitate to even stick my head out too far, b/c this doesn't seem to be a

|
terribly civiklised discussion, but there is a smallish group working (slowly)
|
|
on a WP for linux - (and any other platoform you care to port it to I suppose) -
|
|
we have aimed (in my opinion) fairly high - in that we want to write a WP
|
|
based on the Standard Generic Markup Language - what yu would call a structured
|
|
word processor. There are a lot of issues, and we are tackling them slowly -
|
|
there will be much noise if/when this thing gets working, but this year isn't
|
|
a likely release date. If you wiosh to stir things up (the mail list has been
|
|
a bit slow lately) - you can join the linux-activists channel word to hear any

mail. Otherwise, I suggest you start reading the Tex Book - flames will be

Well, I finally found the newsgroup, and digging around via rn didn't

enlighten me, so I thought I'd up and ask ...
|
|
|
|
A couple of friends are looking at a project that needs a reasonably
|
|
small kernel that they can hack with their own real-time stuff, and
|
|
box for some customers. They'd like to have as much Unix stuff on it
|
|
so as to make their own lives not too horrible, and they're looking
|
|
around at available kernels. They are, of course, horrified by such
|
|
things as Sys/V and BSD, but they've heard some rave reviews of Linux,
|
|
along with a comment that "It only runs on Intel 80-whatevers".
|
|
|
|
So the question is: Is this true, or has it been ported to other
|
|
processors? If so, which processors (and how might one go about getting
|
|
in touch with the Right People)? If not, well, suppose someone were
|
|
to take on the job of porting it to, say, a Motorola or MIPS or Alpha,
|
|
would this likely be a 3-month project, or a 10-year project? Where
|
|
would the portability problem likely lie?
|
|
|
|
As usual, please respond via email; if I get queries of the "me too"
|
|
sort, I'll post a summary...

I prefer the following arrangement:
|
|
|
|
Operating Systems: ------Linux-------
|
|
------Emacs-------
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
Editors: -joe-jove-vi-elvis-vile--

Has anyone got the busmouse that comes with the ATI Graphics Ultra Plus
|
|
(NOT the Pro), to work with X on Linux? It uses IRQ2. This can be
|
|
changed if necessary. Right now the mouse pointer sits in the middle
|
|
of the screen, and is locked up.
|
|
|
|
Once this is figured out, I will publish my Xconfig and the magic
|
|
formula to make this work for all others in the same predicament.
|
|
|
|
regards,
|
|
Tony.

I have installed SLS on a 486DX/33 8MB 75MBHD everything worked fine
|
|
(except at bootup the computer hang after reporting that I have no
|
|
wd80XXX, but after changing my NE2000-card from another computer
|
|
and changing the IRQ from 5 to 12 the install worked correctly
|
|
(a bug ?))
|
|
|
|
Now my problem:
|
|
|
|
When I used ps it said, I need the directory /proc and
|
|
the line "/proc /proc proc defaults" in /etc/fstub (or something
|
|
like that). After doing so and rebooting (after shutdown) everything
|
|
was the same. I still get the above message.
|
|
Can anybody help me?
