Have your 2.4.X kernels got the CONFIG_PACKET (Packet socket) and CONFIG_FILTER
(Socket Filtering) enabled ?

The dhcpd README stats that those options are necessary.

Run "tcpdump -i INTERNAL_INTERFAZ src host MACHINE_IP and icmp" on the router 

and look at the output when pinging from windows and from linux.

You can see any differences?
Any weird transmitted package?

It means that the kernel can't find the System.map file. 

Perhaps you compiled a custom kernel and forgot to copy that file to
/boot (where it usually resides).

If you are using a kernel that ships with Debian probably the System.map
file was deleted.

Did you write 

ModeLine "800x600" 49.50 800 816 896 1056 600 601 604 625 +hsync +vsync 

in the file /etc/X11/XF86Config ?

If yes, did you put that line in the subsection "display" (Section

I use the pm2fb framebuffer module (permedia chipset) compiled into the 
kernel and put the resolution I want as a kernel option in
/etc/lilo.conf:

image=/boot/2.4.19-280503-1
append="video=pm2fb:mode:1024x768-60,font:8x16,ywrap"
root=/dev/hdc2
read-only

With that all the consoles get the values I want at boot time.

Try "depmod -a". That command searches the /lib/modules/* directories for
modules and builds the modules.dep file which contains the modules dependencies.
More information : man depmod.

Hope it helps.

I have a motherboard with video card on-board and works nicely. I think there

If the video card is on-board I would be almost sure it is PCI.

If you are using bash each user has .bashrc and .bash_profile in his home

Probably your setup is correct. I believe that telnet do a dns reverse lookup
previous to the conection itself. Now www.yahoo.com resolves to 66.218.71.80 not
to 192.168.10.1, then the connection goes to 66.218.71.80.

If you have a nameserver declared in /etc/resolv.conf what happens since
yahoo.com is not your local domain is that your nameserver is resolving
yahoo.com out of your local network to the correct ip. If you remove the
nameserver from the resolv.conf file then all aplications will pick up your
local webserver when pointed to www.yahoo.com

pppd does not replace an existing default route. So you can try removing the
default route before connecting.

that did work. Any idea?
Check if the shell scripts are in dos format. If that is the case you 
will see ^M's at the end of every line and those control chars are the 
cause of the error.

If the shell scripts were on a writtable media I would tell you to 
remove those ^M's.

Regards.

###
To support all the various sound modules, there are three general 
support modules that must be loaded first:
 
soundcore.o:   Top level handler for the sound system, provides
   a set of functions for registration of devices
   by type.

soundlow.o:Low-level sound drivers which are not part of 
   OSS/Lite (Open Sound System), including SB32/AWE
   synthesizer, etc.

sound.o:   Common  sound functions required by all modules
###

> and cannot find any of the below modules in 'make xconfig'.

The sound modules are not part of the kernel configuration options, they are 
compiled
if you select support for sound cards. If you compiled the kernel with 
the sound support for your sound card you have to run

make modules
make modules_install 

and the compiled modules will appear in /lib/modules/x.x.x/ where x.x.x is the
kernel version that you compiled. In particular the sound modules will appear in
/lib/modules/x.x.x./sound

   Another PCI single chip ethernet solution from RealTek. A driver

   of linux. You currently have to answer `Y' when asked if you  want
 
   experimental drivers for v2.2 kernels to get access to this driver.

This works for me:

In /etc/exim.conf:

##
#  REWRITE CONFIGURATION #
##


# There are no rewriting specifications in this default configuration file.


# This is an example of a useful rewriting rule---it looks up the real
# address of all local users in a file

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
 {$value}fail} bcfrF

# End of Exim configuration 
# file
 
and in your situation the file /etc/email-addresses must contain:

lance  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The number of colors is not the same.

With 24bpp you have the color of each pixel represented by a binary number with
24 bits (bit = 0 or 1), then you have 2^24 = 16.777.216 colors. 

With 32bpp you have the color of each pixel represented by a binary number with
32 bits, then you have 2^32 = 4.294.967.296 colors.

If you want a given resolution HxV with Nbpp you video card must have at least
(H * V * N) / (1024^2) Kbytes of memory.

1) Create a file ~/.fetchmailrc with the following contents:

poll mail.abc.tld 
protocol pop3
user user
pass password_for_abc.tld_account 
mda "formail -s procmail"
keep;

poll mail.xyz.tld 
protocol pop3
user user
pass password_for_xyz.tld_account 
mda "formail -s procmail"
keep;

2) Create a file ~/inbox :

> echo -n > ~/inbox


3) Create a ~/.procmailrc with the followin contents:

PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/Inbox
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/.procmail.log

:0:
* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
xyz/inbox

:0:
* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* [EMAIL PROTECTED]
abc/inbox


4) Test the configuration (you can see the procmail activity in the file
   ~/Mail/.procmail.log

5) When the thing is working you can remove the "keep" key in the 
   ~/.fetchmailrc file.

6) To understand what is happening read the files under /usr/share/doc/procmail
and /usr/share/doc/fetchmail, and read man fetchmail, man procmail, man
procmailrc and man procmailex .


Good Luck!

next try was rebooting without starting devfsd, result: ls /dev/dsp 
works, artsd and xmms can't find it anyway. i use debians

I had the same problem you have and solved it compiling the kernel with

Perhaps you can use:

done
