problems with diald + ppp + pap

2000-06-12 Thread Klaus Drews

Hi there,

I have problems dialing my provider (ngi) via ppp and pap. In earlier
times
it used to functionate. But now they switched to pap and my configuration
doesnt work anymore. Has anyone a working combination of diald + ppp +
pap ? 

Please help ! I hate working with win only because im unable to dial ...

Regards Klaus.

DELL Inspiron 5000 wrong harddisk-size

2000-04-11 Thread Klaus Drews
Hallo,

I've got my first notebook a Dell Inspiron 5000. For all I've read,
I thought this one would work with Linux. But:
First thing, Linux complains about the harddisk which was preinstalled
with WIN98 (sorry for the words...). It has 12GB. After killing all 
partitions under DOS, formatting and the mbr, Linux pretends to see a 
7,7GB harddisk.
Is this a known bug with some controllers ? Is there a driver to fix it ?
Any other ideas ? 

Klaus.

SOLVED: DELL Inspiron 5000 wrong harddisk-size

2000-04-12 Thread Klaus Drews
Thanks to all,

it seams, that slink can't handle it. Normally I have an peridiodical
update over IP. So the only CD's I had got where old.

Thanks,
Klaus.

Beamer / external monitor on Inspiron 5000

2000-05-10 Thread Klaus Drews
Hi,

does anyone have experience with attaching a baemer to an 
Inspiron 5000. System is debian potato (mostly). I plan to
run vmware with WinNT in it as clientsystem (shouldnt bother).

I never tried to attach an external monitor or a beamer to my
system, so be kind, if I just have to turn the power on...

Klaus.
