My NIC was recognized and everything works fine. However I did have another question. When I was compiling the kernel, I proceeded as follows: make xconfig make dep make clean make bzImage make modules make modules_install make bzImage quit several times before completing. It would quit in various places, and report an error(signal 4 or siganal 11 if I remember correctly). The exact same thing happened with make modules. I was wondering if you might be able to shed any light on this. Also is the above procedure the best way to compile a kernel in debian?

Re: pppoe
Other than the primary and secondary server(information you can get from the mindspring website) there is nothing special you have to do for mindspring. Once you get the file and run the ./go script you run "adsl-setup" as root, and everything is downhill from there. This is probably one of the easiest linux task you can carryout. The people at roaring penquin have done an excellent job. I found out about it at http://www.dslreports.com you will also find some nice speed tweaks there as well. --- Ken Weingold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sat, Dec 9, 2000, Denzil Kelly wrote: > > I have mindspring dsl also.

Re: DOS long filename style - why?
I think you have to have the microsoft joliet extensions enabled in you kernel in order for linux to see the long filenames. I once had a maximum linux cd that would display long filenames. Then I recompiled the kernel without the microsoft joliet extensions, and the same cd truncated the filenames. When I recompiled with the joliet extensions, things went back to normal. --- Ken Weingold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why are the filenames that I access on a mounted DOS > partition > shortened like you would see from within DOS?

Re: Modules and kernel upgrades
Yes, I had this problem a few weeks back. I posted a message here and here is the fix that worked for me. Ah! What you have there is a gotcha in the current Debian kernel-building documentation. Most dists put a .config in the linux directory that reflects the options used to build the distributed kernel. Debian doesn't. However, you can get it from /boot/config-2.2.17 (if you are running Potato). Copy that file to /usr/src/linux/.config before running make menuconfig or make xconfig. In your situation, I think the make-kpkg routine puts the new config in the /boot dir.

Re: swap space and memory
Initially I installed a slink on this box, and at the time I had 64 MB of RAM however I was unable to make a swap partition of 128 MB. I later added another 64 MB of RAM. I tried to resize my /home partition but something went wrong and I wound up reformatting the hard drive, and installed storm, then mandrake for a few weeks. Mandrake allowed me to make a swap partition of 128 MB. When I got the debian 2.2(potato) cd's, I reformatted and installed potato which is what I'm using now. The reason I was concerned is because I've noticed that after about 9-11 days of running this box crashes, and forces me to restarts. I was wondering if this might have been the problem. debian kernel: VM: do_try_to_free_pages failed for kswapd...

Re: kernel 2.2.19 and module problems
I think I got it fixed. running the command depmod -a seems to have created the necessary file in the new modules folder. While things seem to be somewhat back to normal, I do get the following after running the command. depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/ibmtr.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/lanstreamer.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/olympic.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/sktr.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/ne2.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/smc-mca.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/at1700.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/3c523.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/sk_mca.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/3c527.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/3c509.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/depca.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/ltpc.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/net/cops.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/misc/ipx.o --- Carel Fellinger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, Mar 27, 2001 at 08:22:32AM -0700, eric > wrote: > ... > > I copy and paste your install command > > > > lshih:~# apt-get install kernel-image-2.2.19-blah > > Reading Package Lists...

whereis code for telnet?
Where do I find the code for telnet? I've downloaded the kernel source, and I have not been able to find the source code for telnet. I ask because my networks class has been given the task of looking at several linux distributions and examining the telnet code to see if the infamous rlogin bug still exists in any distributions. __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: The Perfect Debian / Personal Computer
If you already have an internal modem you can use it, but if you were buying one get an external one. This is not really that big of an issue. I was assuming that you were building the box from scratch. One reason to avoid internal modems is because they are a heat source and they will increase the temperature inside the computer. Another reason is that if the modem hangs for some reason you will probably have to reboot the machine as there is no way to reset an internal modem. If this occurs with an external modem you can just turn it off and turn it back on. This is somewhat dated, but still worth a look: http://noframes.linuxjournal.com/lj-issues/issue36/2084.html --- Hall Stevenson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Well i have given up on trying to configured > Windows > > > / Linux together.
