First of all, you should really post in plain text, rather than HTML. Reading it is just a couple of keystrokes for me, but others may have more difficulty. Is there any particular reason you only have one primary partition? Assuming you have an IDE drive, you can have up to four. I'm somewhat

I hate to say it, but I have seen this when I didn't have APM support enabled in the kernel. I would suggest making sure the apm module is loaded (do an 'lsmod'). In the '/etc/modules' file, the entry should read 'apm', rather than 'apm.o'. Dhruva On Wed, Jul 04, 2001 at 09:42:44AM +0200, Achi

It is my understanding that hibernation functionality is specific to Windoze 2000 (i.e., it is provided at the OS level). It would be useful to have this functionality in Linux as well, not only for laptops, but also for desktop machines that weren't desgined for this sort of thing (e.g., the sys

No, I was not referring to laptops that do this at the BIOS level (I am aware that there are machines that do this). Also, I was under the impression that these machines hibernate in response to the 'suspend' command. Am I mistaken? My point was that W2K does this no matter what it is running o

On a similar note, can anyone who has experience with Linux on a PPC comment on software support? Unfortunately, I find myself running closed-source apps (such as StarOffice). I have been toying with the idea of buying a PowerBook G4. Thanks, Dhruva On Sat, Jul 07, 2001 at 07:26:26PM +0200,

I have a Linksys PCMPC200 10/100, which uses the tulip_cb module. It seems to work quite well, although I have never been able to get much 15 Mbps within my network (although that could be one of several things--like the D-Link 530TX+ card on my desktop system). The Linksys does not have a buil

I use a USR XJ1560 with my Toshiba 2515CDS. I use the pcmcia-cs for drivers and PC card services. I never had a problem in the days before I got DSL. My mother uses a similar modem in a Toshiba 435CDS, with the same drivers. There is some nastiness when she suspends while dialed up (the ppp da
