Also, pgAccess probably wants to make a tcp connection to postgres. By default postgres does not run this way.

The ATI Radeon 7500 is currently the best open source supported (and thus supported by Red Hat) video card available. Only official "Built by ATI" cards are supported, whereas the "Powered by ATI" ones may or may not work. (All X developers tend to have official ATI hardware, and very few if any have the "powered by" boards, nor the tech specs available, so if there are problems with the "powered-by" boards, they may not get fixed right away until a given developer has access to the specific problem board, and its specs) Before considering any hardware purchase, you might want to do a bugzilla query against XFree86 for each manufacturer's name, and also query specific video card models too. That will give you an idea of what - if any bugs/problems people have encountered, and under any particular motherboard/hardware mix. Hope this helps. -- Mike A.

Yes, this is a Rendition Verite 2x00 based card. The "rendition" driver would be the native driver for it, and the XFree86 status page does claim to support this card. I've never actually encountered anyone using rendition hardware though or reporting bugs against it. That could mean that it is bug free(tm) , or it could mean that there are very few cards in circulation out there, or even possibly that it is so broken that everyone ditched their cards and replaced them with shiny new ones. ;o) Anyhow, give the rendition driver a shot, and if it doesn't work, post your results here and we'll try to troubleshoot.

Demand-dial Router?
I am trying to turn a Red Hat Linux 8.0 box into a demand-dial router (+NAT). I have run into several holes in my knowledge: How do I make 'ppp1' the default route before it's even up, and/or how do I make it demand-dial? How do I insure that - the nat module is inserted - the 'MASQUERADE' rule is inserted - and forwarding is turned on at boot time without intervention?

Re: PHP not behaving as expected
I'm no php expert (yet ;o)), but I think this may have to do with "register_globals" being off by default. IIRC, there's something in the Release Notes about this (along with info about short tags being off). Either change the setting in php.ini or change your scripts to use $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], etc. You can also check the list archives for more info.

More than likely this is due to the fact that RedHat have changed the default value of short_open_tag to Off in your /etc/php.ini file. This stops you from doing things like . You need to change the setting in php.ini to short_open_tag = On Also if your scripts are pre 4.2.0 you may have a problem with register globals, it is now Off by default.

Nvidia drivers and the new kernel.
The NVidia drivers are only for a particular kernel. Every time you upgrade the kernel, you have to either download NVidia drivers for that kernel or recompile the source RPM with the new kernel.

Re: Nvidia drivers and the new kernel.
I'd like to add that this is really annoying. It would be more convenient if I could specify the kernel to compile against. The way it is, you have to reboot first and make sure NOT to run X, or you're in trouble. Then you can rebuild/install and start X. Using the srpm package, there is no provision to specify a specific kernel version to compile against. -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list

Yes, but only the NVIDIA_kernel driver, the NVIDIA_GLX files will work fine. I think the only reason you have recompile the kernel module driver is because Red Hat kernels use module version checking (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y), otherwise, you would not have to recompile anything.

Playlists stops. More sound issues
Sorry if asked before, but had a problem with my list archives... I am quite a newbie too, so I'll try to get into the details I know of: The problem is that my sound apps (any sound app) will sudenlly stop playng in between musics at an aparent random frequency. The thing is playng and then sudenly when switching files in the playlist (on xmms) it hangs with a message asking to check the configuration. During startup, I also have to wait about 1 minute before tryng to use sound, or thw app will acuse problems with /dev/dsp (not being there)... so much for leting it warm up :) Does anyone have the same problem? Possible cause: with soundcard detection on System Settings menu, it says I have a Vendor: ESS technology Model: ES1998 Allegro-1 Module: maestro3 Problem is that my actual soundcard is a Diamond S100. I dont know where to change it or check for the driver. The machine is a custom Athlon 1ghz and a Soyo SY-K7VTA-B motherboard.

The Radeon 8500 for the PC is one of the very few cards that ATI has written Linux drivers for. You can download them at the ATI web site. I haven't heard if they work well or not. If you select ATI Radeon 8500 in the Red Hat display settings applet, you get the same driver as the 7500 (radeon).

So for those who want a pure red hat solution read on. You need to ensure 2 things before you start: 1) You need to download all the rpms from this site http://people.redhat.com/katzj/evolution/RPMS/ into one folder. Make sure all the rpms go into the same folder, and make sure there are no other rpms in that folder before hand (you'll see why later) 2) You need to have the GNOME development package installed to be able to upgrade from the standard (redhat 8.0) evolution version to the new one. Note that you don't actually need the GNOME development package to run the evolution version that comes with the redhat 8.0 cds, but for some reason, to upgrade you need to have several *devel rpms installed. Rather than try and figure out the dependencies I simply installed the default rpms with the GNOME development package using the GUI redhat package manager (Start Menu -> System -> Packages). Once you have both points above completed simply do the following - Kill all evolution related processes. (not sure if you actually need to do this). Simply type killev at a console (as root ofcourse). - cd into the folder that holds all the evolution 1.2 rpms that you downloaded earlier and run the following command: rpm -Uvh *.rpm So in summary you need to : - Already have the redhat 8.0 GNOME development package installed. - Download all files from the above URL into the one folder - Stop all evolution related processes - install all the rpms in the folder (that you downloaded) at once. Hope that helps guys, John BouAntoun -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list

Howto Add an internal SCSI CDBurner
Hi guys, Quick question that somebody on this list can hopefully point me in the right direction to solve. My old PII machine crashed on the weekend, I was keeping it around cause it had my old 8 speed SCSI CD Burner in it (it was running win98). Anyway I pulled the SCSI card and burner out of my old machine and whacked it into my redhat machine so I could burn some stuff and came up with the following issues: - What changes to fstab do I need to make to get the second cd drive (i.e. the burner to be recognised). - Do I need to create a second mount folder for the burner? I already have \mnt\cdrom and \mnt\zip100, do i also need a \mnt\cdburner or something? - Do I need to change any modules to load the SCSI card or will the kernel pick it up on boot up? That's pretty much it, I guess I'm basically asking how to add a second cd drive (actually a cd burner) to a red hat linux machine. Help on this issue is much appreciated. -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list

Red Hat Linux includes redhat-config-packages, which will do what you want, but is limited to the CD's that you installed from. RHL also includes up2date, which wil ldo what you want, but is limited to networks servers that Red Hat operates. You can obtain "apt" and "synaptic" (gui for apt) from freshrpms.net, which will also do what you want. In addition to resolving dependencies among Red Hat's packages, they can fetch programs and resolve dependencies among additional apt servers. For instance, if you follow the directions here: http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/ you can install gstreamer and rhythmbox, and any dependencies they have from Red Hat Linux. > > I need it because I would to install the GNOME desktop manger on my linux > box, but > I think it requires a long list of rpms and I haven't any idea of which > ones are necessary > and in which order I should install them !!! :( > > Note: I have got only windowmaker as windows manager on my RH 8.0 (i386) > > Thank you :) > > > > > -- > Psyche-list mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
