If my memory serves, these files are created by OS/2 on every
|
|
disk or partition and they have a space or some such inside the
|
|
name. Linux probably gets the space as a separator between two
|
|
file names and fails.

I recently installed Linux from CD on to a 300MB drive.
|
|
Running a 50Mhz 486slc with 8Meg RAM, but Xwindows is
|
|
too slow to use, moving from one window to another it
|
|
takes the system up to 30 seconds to catch up.
|
|
The hard drive seems to thrash a bit and the CD is
|
|
accessed at least once during this process.
|
|
Would like to hear any ideas on this topic.

Has anyone had any luck getting a "Ensoniq Soundscape Wavetable Sound Card"

to work under Linux? (1.1.49). It SUPPOSIDLY has PAS-16 and SB-16

I do not know if it is a linux question or not, the problem is

my printer -- HP laserjet III -- does not wrap long lines when
|

printer ascii files. What to do?
|
|
|

The command I use: lpr -Pascii file

Where the filter is

#!/bin/sh

# Filter for HP printers to treat LF as CRLF

I am having problems installing Linux. I got scsinet.gz and
|
|
umsdos.gz from ftp.cs.columbia.edu. I was able to install them
|
|
on floppies ok. I then got disk sets a,ap,n,x, and u from there
|
|
and put them in subdirectories a1, a2, etc. of a directory called
|
|
slackwar. When I try to install I specify slackwar as the source
|
|
directory. It seems to accept that but then when it goes to install
|
|
each disk set it says that it cannot find the disks.
|
|
I therefore made floppies for disk sets a and u. When I try to install
|
|
it finds the disk sets ok but I get error msgs such as compress says
|
|
that there was a file format violation, tar saying that a premature
|
|
eof was reached, or that the file does not line up on a boundary.
|
|
I tried ftping new copies of the files to see if they were garbled but that
|
|
did not help.
|
|
I will check the checksums to see if they are ok, but, in the meantime
|
|
is there anything obvious that I am doing wrong? I forgot to mention that
|
|
for disk sets a and u I just copied the files from my HD using dos copy.
|

Thanks,

Hi there,
|
|
|
|
Thought this is a naive question but:
|
|
|
|
Do I have to have a sound card to play music?
|
|
Or I can just play it through the PC native speaker?
|
|
|

Though I am a newbie but I still looked at snd-driv-2.5 and got no clue..
|
|
|
|
Any hint is appreciated.

The Mach32 X-Server runs fine.
|

Try using the runx script of the svgalib package instead of startx.

This does not cure the invisible font problem of the virtual console

switch while in X-Windows.

There is a deamon that runs on the unix box. It creates

When I ran SLS, I found a copy of the boot messages somewhere under

/proc. Now that I'm running Slackware, I no longer have a copy of the
|
|
boot messages, under /var/adm or anywhere else I've looked. This

clearly depends on how syslogd is configured. I looked into it, but

haven't found the right combination. Could someone post an example?

This is common practice (and, in fact, required by many TCP/IP protocl
|
|
stacks). Whether or not it is "correct" is unclear. It's quite
|
|
possible to implement routing using the same IP address on two
|
|
interfaces, if one of them is a point-to-point link (namely,
|
|
a slip line). The idea of every physical network having its own
|
|
IP network is ideologically pure. Ideological purity, while clean
|
|
and elegant, is often discarded in favour of optimizations. Given
|
|
the current state of the IP address space, it could easily be argued
|
|
that wasting an entire network on a 2-host point-to-point slip line
|
|
is incorrect behaviour :)
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind that BSD is just the most prevalent TCP/IP
|
|
implementation, and not the definition of the protocols.

Subject: Setting up DNS on a Linux box!
|

Date: Tue, 20 Sep 1994 17:33:43 GMT
|
|
|
|
Hi, I just setup a internet provider and I am running Linux 1.1.0 on my
|
|
main server and 1.0.8 on my dns box. This is my setup:
|
|
|
|
204.117.64.1 router
|
|
204.117.64.2 dns dns.novanet.com
|
|
204.117.64.3 novanet novanet.com
|
|
|
|
Ok, so I need to set up the dns.novanet.com (204.117.64.1) as my primary
|
|
name server. And I would liek novanet.com to just look at
|
|
dns.novanet.com. Please if you can help me on this let me know. I would
|
|
love to see some configuration files or if it is a easy thing maybe they
|
|
can put my ip in the files and ftp them to me? I just need to get this
|
|
working by the end of the day. If you can help send e-mail to
|
|
nstn@netcom.com or ftp to ftp.novanet.com /pub/nstn/ directory.
|
|
|
|
Thanks, for the help.
