Samsung I330/USB sync with Linux
Is there any hope possible of getting a Samsung I330 phone/palm to sync with Psyche??? On Windows the USB devices comes up as a Samsung USB Serial adapter but on this machine it doesn't get recognized at all: Jan 19 12:24:41 localhost kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2, assigned device number 2 Jan 19 12:24:41 localhost kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x4e8/0x8001) is not claimed by any active driver. Jan 19 12:24:44 localhost /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: ... no modules for USB product 4e8/8001/0 Any ideas? -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
Re: clock falling behind 2-3 minutes every hour!
For both of these cases I've had good luck running chrony. It's able to keep the clock on my i8100 in sync even with the battery monitor. Check it out at http://chrony.sunsite.dk/ Matthew Saltzman wrote: From the discussion in the Bugzilla entries, it appears that if the clock drift is too fast, ntp can't keep the clock in sync. Also, it is a bit of a pain to run it on a machine that is not connected to a network full time. -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
Re: How much has RH8 gnome been nobbled?
That's interesting! Is there any way to get sawfish back under Gnome2/RH8 ??? Jesse Keating wrote: Almost all of it. Are you sure you're looking at sawfish, and not Metacity? Metacity is the default window manager for Gnome2 now, and one of it's goals was simplicity. The aim was not to overwhelm the user with tons and tons of config optoins, but rather just a few so that they could concentrate on work, instead of fine tweaking the GUI. -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.drivingevents.com/ -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
Re: is it possible to make my camera on usb (dev/sda1) to automountwhen i plug it in?
I set up the automounter so when I plug in the camera I can just cd to that directory and it automatically mounts. I make the timeout relatively short so that it unmounts quickly so I can then unplug the camera when I'm done downloading pictures. This is my auto.master entry: /misc /etc/auto.misc --timeout=30 And this is /etc/auto.misc: camera -fstype=auto:/dev/sda1 This usually works fine with my Nikon Coolpix 775 but eventually USB gets messed up and it won't work until a reboot. I find that using a PCMCIA interface for the Compact Flash card with my laptop works MUCH more reliably and much faster. The automounter configuration is pretty much the same. Just make sure that your device does come up as /dev/sda1 Kent Nyberg wrote: Is it possible to make it so that when i plug in my camera in the usb-slot then it automounts? Now i have to mount it (mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera) by hand. It would be better if it automounts just like the cdroms does in gnome. Have a nice day! The camera is a Fuji finepix s602. It workes fine in Linux :) (well, i can mount it. Dont know what more i would want to do) -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org http://www.drivingevents.com/ -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
Automatically setting the MTU to non-default...
Due to a goofy configuration with a VPN running between two PPPoE connected networks I need to have an MTU set that's lower than the default 1500. Currently I added some code to /etc/rc.local to set it if it's one of those networks but I'm wondering if there is a cleaner "more correct" way of setting this up??? The GUI doesn't have a way of doing that and I can't find a way in the standard startup scripts? Is there a better way or should I just stick to my ugly hack? -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org http://www.drivingevents.com/ -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
Re: Automatically setting the MTU to non-default...
Not that simple. The routers are Netopia routers which have only three options for VPNs: PPTP: No encryption ATMP: Has encryption IPsec: Good encryption but I have clients that need to access other corporate VPNs using proprietary Windows clients. As far as I know you can't have IPsec VPNs on the router as well as behind the router, or at least it never worked for me. As far as the MTU many things break due to the packet size being too large. The magic number for the MTU is 1452 which is the highest packet size where everything works. Remember that I mentioned that the routers are connection via DSL using PPPoE so there is additional packet overhead there too. Paul Hamm wrote: Hacks are only ugly if they don't work, or break somthing. My recommendation is spend some quality time with those buggered VPN connections and make them work properly. True story. I had a person in a remote office tell me I had to reset my email server clock because his windows machine did not do daylight savings time for his time zone. Israel votes on it or something. So since his stuff did not work he wanted me to break mine. This would have caused problems all over. The solution was to use a different country in the same time zone as Israel so the DST box was available. Sounds to me like you have the same kind of problem. If you spend the time now to fix the issue it will most likely save you time and problems in the future when the entreched system will be imposible to remove. -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org http://www.drivingevents.com/ -- Psyche-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list

Thank you, that worked!

Re: Boxed set not available anywhere
Or at least for people like me who have been trying to download it all day and not getting very far. If it was available today I would have run out to the store and just bought it already. Todd Booher wrote: It's too bad RH doesn't act like MS in this case... they always have boxed product the day a product is released. You would think RH would have this stuff out there on release so the RH faithful could make their purchase and RH would quickly get some cash in the door. On a side note, I really hope they include a DVD here in the US boxed set. Todd -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.drivingevents.com/
