You can't.  You'll need glibc-kernheaders, or the appropriate 
kernel-source RPM (if you're trying to compile a kernel module).

That's why I said to install the kernel-source RPM if he was trying to

Probably because your code is relying on register_globals being enabled.  
(which is now disabled by default with PHP >= 4.2)

It's best to fix your code so that register_globals is not necessary.
(ie.  use $_POST["var"] or $_GET["var"], instead of $var)

You can only set the user/group ownership for the whole filesystem, and

It only needs to retrieve the package listings/headers.  I just ran it a

The default php.ini gets patched when building the Red Hat RPMs.  
Maybe your specfile isn't doing that.

$ grep sendmail /etc/php.ini
sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED]

V4L

2002-11-30 Thread david
Hey all,
  I'm trying to get V4L working on my box here and I can't seem to be able to 
get the Kernel to compile right.  Every time I select V4L and the options 
needed for it (found in the README) it bombs out of the compile and never spits 
out the kernel.  I've got Kernel 2.4.18-18 and the src, running on a P3 850, 
768MB Ram, ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon.  Also just something on the side I can't 
remember if it was on the list or not but I wanted to be able to play UT2003 
with my card.  As much as I can remember what I would have to install is the 
xig.com Summit v2.2 xserver and drivers that would support 3D under ATI.  I 
know they also have some kinda of TV Tuner software with it but I didn't want 
to spend $119 unless all my other options went south.  Can someone give me any 
tips of what I may be doing wrong? Thaks guy.

Does it work okay if you unplug the DVD drive?  Have you tried replacing 
or re-positioning the ATA cable?  Are both drives using DMA?

My DVD and CD-writer (sharing the same channel) both use DMA okay.

I had some major stability problems at first with my A7V333, until I

Automatic configuration of the RAM timings ("By SPD") doesn't work on this 
motherboard.  With various DIMMS, I would get random lockups, memtest86 
failures, etc.  Works perfectly if I manually set the timings.

I didn't mean to imply it is a characteristic of all A7V333 motherboards, 
but it's certainly the case with mine.  I tested 4 sticks of brand-name 
DDR (PC2700 and PC2100) - none worked with SPD.
(I initially thought my Corsair XMS was faulty, but that's not the case)

Yes, all 4 DIMMs worked fine in other motherboards set to use SPD.

I've seen other A7V333s that do work with SPD, so perhaps I have a strange 
motherboard, or only a certain revision/BIOS combination does this.

Re: NFS server + iptables == pain

2003-01-20 Thread David Durst
> -A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 111 --syn -j ACCEPT

I believe you will need to remove the above rule and replace it w/ these
two following rules.

-A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -i  -p tcp -m tcp --dport nfs -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Lokkit-0-50 INPUT -p  -p tcp -m tcp --dport sunrpc -j
ACCEPT

You might also want to add UDP access.

-A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -i  -p udp -m udp --dport nfs -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Lokkit-0-50 INPUT -p  -p udp -m udp --dport sunrpc -j
ACCEPT

you should also probably modify your nfs start up script in

/etc/init.d/nfs


NFS has a habit of opening up a RANDOM port for mountd so
you can hardcode this port in the start up script by adding

MOUNTD_PORT=100
if [ -n "$MOUNTD_PORT" ]; then
RPCMOUNTDOPTS="$RPCMOUNTDOPTS --port $MOUNTD_PORT"
fi

I think I added this right around like 48.

In fact I can't remember if I even added the whole thing
but by screwing around w/
MOUNTD_PORT
you can then set the Firewall rules around allowing access to this port

Happy firewalling.

Re: Open Office & JRE 1.4.1

2003-01-28 Thread David Durst
H, the amazing thing is a I have now read all of the posts
in reply to my original and still don't have a clear view if
anyone else has experience this issue.

I would really not devel into the politics of Java on Linux as
I have before, but let me say this I think it is both
Sun and Redhats at fault in different ways.

As far as Java being slow, hmmm lemme just say NO. Maybe for GUI
but I think think you could classify Java as slow by any means,
memory intensive for sure but not slow (P.S. Try adjusting OO to use
a little bit more memory and see how that helps the performance)

So here goes my conclusion of what has happened to my machine and why OO
doesn't work now.

1. Worked w/ out Java.
2. Worked w/ Java 1.3
3. Doesn't work now that 1.4 is here

I think there is probably some nasty dependency buried deep down inside OO
that will work if Java isn't there (Why RH has been fooled), it will work
if the developed againest JVM is there (1.3).  But for some reason the
same dependency/code executed againest 1.4 causes a break.

Just a random though, now can someone tell me if I have any insight at all,
besides RH removed Java dependency.

As I said GUI is not very good in Java, but making a blanket statement
that Java is slow is probably from limited experience in using it.

On a side note, there are some abstract aproaches to developing GUI in
Java that remove these performance issues.

Does anyone know why different filesystems are available on so many of the other distro's but Red Hat does not support them.  Mandrake, Suse, Debian, Slackware, and others do support xfs.  It handles acl's natively and Red Hat took out acl support in there new kernel yet they won't support filesystems that do support ACL's.  I called Red Hat to ask questions about the issue but they went off claiming that all of these other distro's suck.  I think so far that all these other distro's have more support for these different situations.  They also claimed that just recently that they changed their policy, even if you buy a copy of Red Hat they will not support you like they did before, unless you buy the advanced server version.  I am a newbie to linux trying to get off of M$ but this does not seem like a place with any better attitude then M$ themselves. I hope that I am wrong.  If anyone has had different ex!
periences with Red Hat  please let me know.  I am hoping that I just got a guy in a bad mood.  If any one know's where you can put in a request for new features to be added to the distro for Red Hat I would appreciate it.

ACL Gui for XFS filesystem

2003-02-21 Thread David . Grudek

I got XFS working on redhat with the kernel and patches from sgi.com.  I am really new to linux and am still in the process of learning linux.  I have got the understanding of normal permissions now.  I have read some howto's on acl's and can not figure it out.  I was wondering if there is a gui interface that I can change the acl's on XFS with redhat 8 while I'm in my learning curve.

Hole in Procmail Relay disable??

2003-02-24 Thread David Coleman
Greetings --

I've discovered a hole in Procmail's disabling of
relays.  I am sure there is a way to protect against
this, but it's very disconcerting.  This is the log
message I've captured:

Feb 10 20:36:07 carefree postfix/qmgr[1062]:
988B6D82B: from=<>, size=8562, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Feb 10 20:36:07 carefree postfix/smtpd[9452]:

Feb 10 20:36:09 carefree postfix/smtp[9458]:

relay=mail.aspens
nowmass.com[216.237.72.142], delay=2, status=sent (250
2.6.0  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 Queued mail for delivery)


Notice that it seems to have sent the message even
though it was a relay.  Normal behavior is shown in
another part of the log where the source mail address
is not null:

Feb 12 00:43:26 carefree postfix/smtpd[12302]: reject:
RCPT from unknown[211.192.23.172]: 554 : Recipient address rejected: Relay access
denied; from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to=


Is there a configuration setting I have missed that
will inhibit the relay if the source mail address is
null???

Just to add my 2 cents to the thread.

I have seen alot of this come up in this mailing list in the last couple of
months.  Maybe back in the day RTFM was an acceptable answer because we
had been dealing w/ people that saw the actual command line, now that
Red Hat in many ways has been moving away from that. We might be dealing
w/ users that don't know that this stuff exsists or if they do they maybe
confused at the over complexity of a man page ( I know I was when I first
started to read them).

Now since I don't know the specifics of the question, I will now proceed
to STFU :)

Install of 8.0 in freezing at different points

2003-03-20 Thread David Boyes
I have the 3 CD image install disk for Redhat 8.0. I believe called ISO.

All three check out on the test before install.

I am installing on a 3.2gb drive that is formatted FAT32.

The install process seems to be going flawlessly but for some reason the
install stops and I have to turn the machine off and start the whole process
again.

I have tried this three times and each times it freezes at a different
point.  Once I even got close to the end.

I am installing the personal version as it recommends.

Any ideas?

Source rpms and kernel compiling

2003-06-04 Thread David . Grudek

I have been trying to learn more about how to customize an rpm package with features they did not compile with or to recompile a kernel.  I went to linuxhomenetworking.com, linuxnewbie.org, and linuxnovice.org looking for help.  I have read the man pages and I am still confused.  I am trying to compile samba with acl support or for future just compile any package with an additional feature or to compile kernel 2.5.70.  I have tried for about two and a half months and I am getting frustrated.  I thought I was having a dependancy problem so I installed the complete installation of redhat 9, then I installed apt-get from freshrpms.net and did a apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade and it updated every package that was available for updating.  When I was trying to compile a kernel from kernel.org I did these steps with no luck.  I downloaded the kernel source into /usr/src and I extracted it.  I then r!
an make mrproper and ran successfully.  Then I ran an make xconfig and chose all the things I wanted as well as those I wanted to remove.  I chose to exit and save.  I then ran make dep and it said it was unneccessary.  I did this because all the guides that I have said to do that.  I did a make clean even though I never recompiled a kernel because the manual said it wont hurt to do it anyway.  I then ran a make bzImage.  It always runs successfully.  Then I ran a make modules and this is where it always fails.  No matter what I chose while in the make xconfig it does not make a difference a driver of some sort fails the make modules.  I went threw and took out everything I did not need, experimental, or even new.  I did them all in different combinations and even just the default kernel straight  and it does not seem to matter.  It always fails.  Any help would be appreciated.

Problem on aic7899 with smp kernel

2003-07-21 Thread David Chow
Dear all,

My machine consistently locks up after the system has powered up for 
around 20minutes. Each time it locks up the console dumps the following 
messages.  I've read some posting in this lists and saying it is a 
hardware problem. However, the problem only exists when booting smp 
kernel. To me, it seems it is a problem come from a badly written driver 
rather than hardware. My kernel is 2.4.20-18smp and is running on a Tyan 
mother board, dual athlon with onbaord aic7899 , running md with RAID-1 
mirroring, Seagate Cheetah 36GB SCSI . The system can only survive with 
non-smp kernels. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

regards,
David Chow

ljet4 printing problem

2003-08-14 Thread David Chow
Dear all,

On Redhat 8, I am using an Epson EPL-5700 printer. I am having problem 
printing postscript and pdf documents (ok with openoffice). I am using 
the ghostscript together with the ljet4 driver and lpd. The output page 
has the top part chop off. Looks like we have a negative top margin. 
This only happens for ps and pdf files and is ok for openoffice. Has 
anyone has this experiecne? Also, this happens after some up2date 
packages installed but I am sure this doesn't happen with the stock 
packages. What's the difference of printing with open office and using 
lpr -Pmypriner  that causes the trouble, so that I can trace more 
deep. Thanks.

regards,
David Chow

Psyche hangs with rack-mount Dell 2650 in multiprocessor mode?

2002-10-15 Thread David . Menges
Sorry if this has been discussed, I just joined this list.

We have a brand new rack-mount Dell PE 2650 on which we loaded Red Hat 8.0.
Problem is it crashes within 30 minutes when in multi-processor mode (no
errors anywhere, just freezes).  Anyone experiencing this?  

It came with Red Hat 7.2 or 7.3 installed, but we didn't run it that way
long enough to know if that was stable.  It does not crash in
single-processor mode.

We've updated the Dell's firmware, called Dell, and done general research,
but are striking out.  We were getting "Missing CPU 1", "Missing CPU 2", and
"Volt Core CPU" (or something like that) errors on the Dell's LCD until we
updated the firmware and pulled the power for 2 minutes.  It DOES have 2
processors, though we haven't reseated them yet.

Other details:  it has 2G RAM, 2 disks mirrored and 3 disks RAIDed, and so
on...







RE: Psyche hangs with rack-mount Dell 2650 in multiprocessor mode ?

2002-10-15 Thread David . Menges
I don't know what tg3 is, but no, the machine is idling.  It hangs with no
one logged in, no one at the console, no one accessing it via the net (it
hasn't been built as a web server yet).  It has 2 ethernet ports, only one
in use so far, at 100 Mbps full duplex.

Are you *heavily* using the onboard tg3 ethernet?

2002-10-15 Thread David . Menges
No, we didn't load any windowing packages.  Thanks, though.  I wonder why
you recompiled your kernel.

We swapped the 2 CPUs, hoping the problem would migrate to the first
processor, but it still hangs in multi-processor mode (and doesn't in
single-processor mode), so we'll be calling Red Hat tech support in the
morning.  I'll relay any news.

Are you by any chance running X w/ screensavers enabled? I had a problem w/
my 8.0 installation crashing hard - total freeze, nothing in the logs (that
I saw, anyway), etc. The machine was largely idle also, and it was a Dell
(albeit a desktop model), though I'm sure some of the hardware is the same.
Anyhoo, the crash only happened while the screensaver was running.

For me, the problem went away once I recompiled my kernel, though to tell
you the truth, I don't know the difference(s) between the stock 8.0 kernel
and the one that I built.

I can't believe that no one has nailed this down yet. It's very simple
to do, and everything you need is already in the distribution. If you
already have your main box connecting with pppd, there's just two things
left to do on the pppd side.

You must properly configure both network sides of your Linux box, you
must ENABLE IP FORWARDING (this one's easy to overlook), and you must -
as you said - enable masquerading through iptables.

(In 7.3, there was a GUI to configure everything you want. It was called
rp3-config. I don't know if it's there in RH 8 as I have regressed to
7.3 again because I have issues with the font situation. I'm sure
there's an equivalent, though it will probably be called
`redhat-config-something'.)

Anyway, all it did was configure `ifcfg-pppX' scripts in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. The options you need are "DEMAND=yes"
and "IDLETIMEOUT=XXX".

Well then his first email was ambiguous. I see that he has responded to
another part of this thread saying that he indeed wanted manual control
of the connection. If you make the modifications I talked about, you
don't NEED to control it; it will all be automatic.

The only problem with it being completely automatic is that he's running
XP behind it. I just saw a web page last week that talked about 18
different ways that XP "phone's home" to Microsoft. (I can't find the
link again though; hints are certainly welcome.) After reading that,
it's my understanding that some features of XP won't work unless the
connection is open. So, with XP, the connection is going to basically
need to be open all the time when he's doing something anyway.

I'm spinning off topic,

Here's the final word on this problem I brought up.  I would like to know if
future versions of RH Linux will support APIC, but Red Hat's forums are down
and I don't remember if I asked them during phone calls.

At present, Red Hat Linux 8.0 has not been validated on any of
our servers; however, it is highly likely that it will be in
the coming months.  

The 2650 does, in fact, support APIC at the hardware level. However,
some OS's, including Red Hat can experience issues with APIC
configuration, and it is therefore recommended to disable APIC
support inside the OS.

That seems to be the case, but the fact is that Lokkit doesn't call your

ignoring you entirely.  And BTW, you need to run 
"/etc/init.d/iptables restart" or "service iptables restart"
to make your Lokkit changes take effect.

I've had the dubious pleasure of doing this at least six times now.
Here are "David Willson's Instructions for the Ridiculously Impatient".
Yes, you actually DO have to do all this.

- Install the kernel-source, if you haven't already.
  'rpm -Uvh /somewhere/RedHat/rpms/kernel-source-something.rpm'
- Do a complete up2date, if you haven't already.
  'up2date --update --force'
- Download the kernel driver src.rpm and the GLX driver src.rpm from
nVidia's website.
- Build the binary version of each file with something like
  'rpmbuild --rebuild ~/blah.src.rpm'
  Take note of the location of the binaries as you build them!  It's
given in the output.
- Install the binary rpms.  'rpm -Uvh kernel.rpm'  'rpm -Uvh glx.rpm'
- Edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config to make three changes:
  - In the 'Section "Module"' section, pound (#) out 'Load "dri"' and
'Load "GLcore"'.
  - In the same section, add 'Load "glx"', if it's not already there.
  - In the 'Section "Device"' section, change the name of driver
from "nv" or "VESA" or whatever to "nvidia"

If you haven't downloaded the drivers from nVidia's site, then that's
the first job. There's two files, a GLX file and a Kernel file. 
nVidia pre-compile the drivers, so you either need to match the kernel
you are running (probably 2.4.18), or you can download 'generic' files
which you can rebuild - each time you upgrade the kernel you will need
to reinstall the drivers for the graphic card. My personal choice would
be the GLX SOURCE RPM and KERNEL SOURCE RPM. (I'd keep these on the
machine in a handy location for future use).

Follow the instructions, 
rpmbuild --rebuild 
the docs will say rpm --rebuild

Then you may need to change /etc/X11/XF86Config, as directed in the
readme file from nVidia's page.


Hopefully this points you in the right direction.

Psyche is great and the users need to read more manuals before

Did you reboot into the new kernel BEFORE you
ran rpmbuild --rebuild? It won't work
unless you do that.

I generally do the following to upgrade:
1. get new kernel & source
2. rpm -e NVIDIA_GLX_ver
3. rpm -e NVIDIA_kernel_ver
4. Edit /etc/inittab so that default runlevel is
3
5. reboot into text logon.
6. rpmbuild --rebuild NVIDIA_kernel_ver.src.rpm
7. rpm -ivh NVIDIA_kernel_ver.i386.rpm
   (usually placed in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386)
8. rpm -ivh NVIDIA_GLX_ver.i386.rpm
9. startx
   Everything should work!!
10. edit /etc/inittab so default runlevel is 5

Thats it.

NE2000 Plus ISA Ethernet Card

2002-11-20 Thread David Mascot



Hi,
 
I am a newbie at Linux.  I just installed 
Redhat 8 onto an old Dell Deminsion with a 233 Pentium CPU, with 64 meg of 
ram.
 
I haven't hade any luck in getting the Ethernet 
Card recognized.  
 
The card is an ISA NE2000 Plus
The MAC address is: 00-00-1B-48-15-D4
The IRQ is 3
The I/O is 340h
 
Do I need a driver or configuration parameter to 
get it working?
 
Thanks,
David


mutt newbie

2002-11-20 Thread David Sudjiman
Guys,

I just tried my mutt yesterday. I know I should get into the .muttrc
file to get it working.

Ok I can get my email, but I can't send it back.. I was trying to find
the smtp server parameter but there wasn't any.. or I should do in other
way?

Oya, how can I use email filtering and put it on certain folders like I

Dist. Suggestions

2002-11-21 Thread David Durst
I recently upgraded from RH 7.3 to 8.0 and at first I loved it, the I
realized that it kind of sucked.

Let me explain and I will get to my suggestions about the way RHs Next
major released should be.

1st. Lack of REAL Software (OpenLDAP)
2nd. Lack of Wireless LAN Drivers (PRISM2)

Ok now I know everyone is gonna jump on this and say that OpenLDAP (I
don't think its GPL) and PRISM2 Drivers are not GPL.

Well that is where my suggestion comes in, in 7.3 Staroffice a NON-GPL
software came w/ the dist. on a seperate CD.

Does anyone support the IDEA of dist. NON-GPL software on a seperate CD???
I think it would make alot of people much happier if they didn't have to
go reading through mailing lists to find out how to get a Netgear wireless
NIC
to work under 8.0.  Along w/ that is there is a serious need for a
Directory Service so it is just a thought.

Thanks,
Dave Durst

Re: Dist. Suggestions

2002-11-21 Thread David Durst
Ok, maybe OpenLDAP does come w/ it. My mistake - but when you click
to do a FULL INSTALL it doesn't.

And great RH doesn't support Binary Modules - you can get a source version
compile it on your own and then send it out as a binary.

Or maybe I am getting it wrong here, lemme look at it the other way.
You don't want to support the project of a module?
If so then why dist software at all?

It just a piece of software that POSSIBLE could be borken when you ship it
but that should be no concern of yours considering XMMS & Postgres :)

Just ship the damn module so RH 8.1 or whatever can support about 75% of
the wireless NICS on the market.

This discussion reminds me of the pre Donald Becker days and dealing w/
regular NIC cards.

Yeah, it don't work w/ out the prism2 drivers that RH didn't dist.

Not the thread of Dist. Suggestions.

Re: A thought about psyche

3 RH training points you should have to worry about,

1. E-Mail Client (Evolution) its not that bad really I have done it with
over a 100 users already

2. Web Browser (Netscape 7 or Mozilla 1.0) this is the BIGGEST issue you
will encounter, you will probably want Net. 7 since it comes default w/
Flash and Java plugings (It is a pain to install these by hand on every
desktop) and your users will bitch and mon for a while, but HONESTLY ITS A
DAMNED WEB BROWSER - WHAT TRAINING SHOULD THERE BE.

3. Terminal, if you are running a terminal application such as MAS90 -
gnome-terminal will be your biggest issue, it has NO PRINT SCREEN
functionaility as yet.  It also doesn't support switching terminal types,
sooon it will do both actually about 3 months and I am hopping to get
the upgrades stuck in w/ 8.1 or whatever.

If you have any question about converting I can give you some insight
into what I have encountered w/ my users.

Thanks,
Dave Durst

Re: Dist. Suggestions

2002-11-21 Thread David Durst
I am not suggesting that it is on CD 4 of 4, I am just suggesting to fill
out the distribution (Tomcat I believe is Open Source) its just a
licensing issue between GPL OSS and NON-GPL OSS.

I would like to see a OPTIONAL software CD, and it doesn't make you
solaris or windows by including this software because YOU ARE NOT FORCING
someone to install it.

It is just nice that when I setup a system I don't have to go hunting around
the NET to go and get versions of software and install them.

I also feel that if linux is going to be widely adopted you HAVE to
including things like JAVA and or NDS (Directory Service OTHER THAN NIS)

It just seems lame that the softwares that are WIDELY used (TOMCAT & JAVA)
under linux are not available right out of the box.

P.S. Yeah yeah I know JAVA is no longer availble under a Winblows env.
anymore eithier but that is another issue.

I hear this 'training' thing over and over again.
I don't know why it comes up. OOh yeah that right users are idiots.

The thing that gets me is cause you SAY its not WINDOWS people FREAK
and forget how to click a mouse on a button and read the screen.

I think alot of this 'training' thingy cost on switch is also just FUD.
BTW. Look at LINUX right now in the server environment to replace those
FRAMES (And use VPN over DSL or T-1) doing this will save your company
TONS of money.

Desktop thought RH 8.0 does a solid JOB, I don't know who groupwise
integrates w/ evolution or if it does. But what you could look at is
(Hate to plug another company in RH list) is Suse Exchange server, it
emulates exchange functionality (That is if you need the whole sharing of
folders and crap) if not Cyrus or Imapd/ Sendmail or Postfix & OpenLDAP or
cough cough NDS will do a good job at replacing a E-Mail server such as
Groupwise.

Ok mis wording the problem w/ 8.0

2002-11-21 Thread David Durst
Ok there are 2 issues I have just realized w/ this secondary software CD.

It needs to be broken into 2.

Redhat needs to come out w/ new CD/Software offering called:
Redhat Application Server - Includes: Java SDK, Tomcat, JBOSS, Apache w/
Java connector.

2nd part is:

Redhat desktop Support CD
Includes: Flash, JRE, Netscape 7 and MORE WIRELESS NIC CARD DRIVERS, etc...

2002-11-21 Thread David Durst
I am not sure why you say 1/2 closed, and 2nd THERE IS MARKET DEMAND.
Has anyone looked at the major deployments of LINUX and why it is being used
its mostly in JAVA.

And Tomcat, Jboss, apache are all open sourced just not GPLed.

You can LEGALLY distribute the the JRE and J2SDK.


For the most part you just don't get it.
You are so afraid the EULA that it ruins the OSes possiblities.

Who CARES about the EULA of JAVA, IT DOESNT COST A DAMN THING!

And w/ Netscape 7, it doesnt have to be there but make it so when you
have Flash (It install the plugin correctly into Mozilla).

See this is what you don't get - let me give you an analogy to explain it
a bit better.

The state of Linux now is "Here is a car w/ a manual figure it out"

Heres what I am asking for:
"Here is a car w/ a manual, here is the body kit, rims, spolier and CD
Player you can put in the car - side note you DON'T HAVE TO PUT THEM ON"

I just don't see your point,
you spout off about Microsoft & Solaris.
But you really don't make a FUNCTIONAL point about what is so horrible
about distributing the said software.
You say EULA - even Linux has a EULA you just don't have to click a button
to accept it.
If you would like me to understand your side of the arguement please
explain it better than just saying MICROSOFT.

Problems with NE2000 ISA Card

2002-11-21 Thread David Mascot
I recently installed Red Hat 8, for the first time, onto an old Dell
Demension.

I can't get the NE 2000 ISA Ethernet card initialized.

I don't have any drivers for this card, but I do have a dos program on a
floppy that allows me to configure the card to any I/O address and IRQ.
Currently I'm trying IRQ 10 and 300 I/O.

>From the Red Hat desktop I selected "system settings", then "network" and
then the "hardware" tab.  I pressed "add" and selected the NE1000-NE2000
from the dropdown list.  Then I inserted the configuration of IRQ 10 and I/O
0X300.  When I hit "o.k." I get a message that says the card "cannot be
initialized".

Am I missing some steps, or doing something wrong?  Sure would appreciate
some help.

Thanks,
David

RE: Ok mis wording the problem w/ 8.0

2002-11-21 Thread David Durst
Ok, I see your point.
But no one said that they HAD to support it.
But they don't control 97% of the software they distribute anyways.
So the major difference is that they can see the source, uh
anyone ask IBM for a VM under the IBM Shared Source license?
I would be hard pressed to believe they would say no.

>Think of car companies.  Does GM say,
> here's a car with our stuff that we know works, and here's a CD
> Player/MP3 Player/axle extension kit/body kit?

U actually they do, its called preferred VENDORS thats why you see
items approved by GM that don't void warranties.

But even with all of this your point is still valid, but here is a
economic couter point.

Hmmm Redhat makes most of its money from support, if more people call
for support the more money Redhat can make. Kind of a backwards arguement
but in general the more you DIST. does the more calls you will get.

Ok maybe you skipped the core part of my post,
I suggested a SEPERATE CD and SEPERATE offering.
If you do this you cause no problems w/ what you present and you solve
my issues.

Remeber it is still your choice to INSTALL a piece of software its
not forced on you so you STILL have FREEDOM.

Ok, then wouldn't it also be possible to let people download?
Maybe I am wrong but I think you can mirror for SUN or IBM on the JAVA thing.

And yeah well hmmm when you buy a RH Box Set do you know what you are
technically paying for? its not the software inside its the 6 months
of support included by RH.

To me it just seems like another way of selling support.

And I don't think JAVA itself needs SUPPORT it seems pretty damn
stable in any environment.

What you just state can in no other way be described but "That SUCKS!"

Ok I get the point, I was not aware that they charged for each distributed
copy. Hmmm ponders a install/download wizard for java :)

Ok, is there anyway that the RH partnership w/ IBM could be leveraged to
achieve the desired???

It is sad at the analogy you just described. Is that really the
relationship between IBM, SUN and Linux right now???

That would be suprising consider the implications of the the SUN/JAVA - MS
settlement.

It just seems to me that there has to be a way to achieve this software
dist.. But then again software giants are stupid w/ working w/ Linux so
why
should I assume that they would want to get their software out there.

Hi,
Try using "rpmbuild --rebuild" instead.
In the newer versions the build functionality of rpm has moved to a separate program.

Also, make sure you have the rpm-build package installed.

"rpmbuild --rebuild file.src.rpm" does that. It compiles the source in a src.rpm
file and places the resulting rpm file somewhere in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/ 
(depending on target architecture).

You may want to check out the rpmbuild man page for more options though.

2002-11-23 Thread David Durst
Great.
Not to be a dick but.
I think RH has done a great thing for the overall MARKET in 8.0.

But what RH needs to remember and I think what I see you are angry at
is that 8.0 is not for you and not for the typical LINUX user.

But by no means is 8.0 NOT Linux, in fact I think it is the embodiment
of what LINUX really is.  What I mean by that is that they exercised
they're right to MODIFY something to achieve the desire.

I think to appease more users RH needs to come out w/ a TECHNICAL &
NON-TECHNICAL distribution.
