Afternoon all :)
While aimlessly browsing the web, I sort of stumbled across the USB-HOWTO and
some other information that Harry mentioned without addresses:
USB-HOWTO: www.dynamine.net/linux-usb/HOWTO/
The Linux USB Wevsite: www.linux-usb.org/
Cheers,

Hi, Walt,
Consider running XF86Setup, which is a nice, easy, graphical way to set up
your xf86config file. When it starts up it will ask if it should use your
current file as the default, and simply answer "no" to start clean. If you
don't have XF86Setup installed, it is on your Red Hat CD-ROM.
Hey Sriram,
You should at least see the USB controller. I just checked out some of
the USB info for Linux. Some keyboard, mouse support, haven't been able

Hey There,
A couple different ways to rerun the X setup. You can do it from
the setup utility choose Xsetup there. You can run xf86config(my favorite)
or you can run Xconfigurator. In any event the thing that you really need

Glint was only in Red Hat 5.2 and below. It was superceded by GnoRPM in
6.0. In 6.1 you have a choice between GnoRPM and kpackage. I find kpackage

Oh hell yes. If noone reports the trivia, it doesn't get fixed.
And so much of the trivia is a two-second job for the right

Hey There,
What kernel are you running?? 2.2.x series have USB support so you
should at least see the controller in the boot process. type dmesg|less
and look for an entry for the USB. Assuming the kernel found it you
might have some luck. There is a USB how-to out there as well.

Hey Telsa,
I've found thru experience that on-board sound is a real b*&%# to

Hey All,
I would personally recommend using mgetty+sendfax. I believe it comes
standard with most distros. Easy to setup and maintain. Fax broadcasting
capabilities, etc. Featured article in Linux Journal, Dec edition i
believe. If you need any help let me know.

Folks
Is there any way to make Intel USB Camera work on Linux? Linux refuses to
even identify my USB. I am sure, I am messing up somewhere.
Another problem is the IRQ and IO Port clash. Any ways to customize the IO
ports an IRQs on Linux, like specifying the range manually? When I try
playing so
efax and jfax are available for Linux. I am myself trying my best to get
them to work :-)
