Help! - part 2

by Michael Long

I have now been able to boot the system using another drive. The original boot drive (hda7) can be mounted successfully with the following fstab configuration: /dev/hda7 /data2 reiserfs noauto,user 0 0 When reiserfsck /data2 is run I get the following messages: reiserfs_open: bread failed reading block 16 reiserfs_open: bread failed reading block 2 reiserfs_open: neither new nor old reiserfs format found on /data2 reiserfsck: --rebuild-sb may restore reiserfs super block What are the ramifications of running this? Is this something that can cause the data on the disk to be lost? Thanks for any help, Mike

Help! System booting as readonly

by Michael Long

While away on business I lost the ability to ssh into my computer. I had my wife ping it from within the home network and she was unable to. After walking her through some ifconfig diagnostics (she is a technically challanged individual) I next had her reboot the box in the hope that it would "fix" the problem. It did not solve the problem. Now that I am home I see that it is mounting the drives as readonly. The following is a partial listing of the dmesg: kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2 VFS: Mounted root (reiserfs filesystem) readonly Trying to move old root to /initrd ... failed Unmounting old root clm-6006: writing inode 927 on readonly FS clm-6006: writing inode 927 on readonly FS clm-6005: writing inode 927 on readonly FS clm-6006: writing inode 927 on readonly FS clm-6006: writing inode 927 on readonly FS clm-6005: writing inode 927 on readonly FS How do I go about diagnosing and fixing this problem? Thanks, Mike

Hi Andy: I am interested in further details on the Linux Sysadmin position. I have Sysadm experience on Solaris and AIX systems and would like to move to Linux.

RE: [Wlug] Driver question

Assuming you're talking about the one based on the dxr3 chipset, then yes, it exists, but the last time I tried it - it wasn't entirely reliable - though it did work in most circumstances.

REMINDER: Meeting on Wednesday, June 18th

by Andy Stewart

Hi everybody, The next WLUG meeting will be on Wednesday, June 18th in a different place. This time, we're in Olin Hall room 107 (the big lecture hall on the left on the first floor of Olin Hall). More detailed directions are available on the WLUG website. The meeting time is the usual 7:00 PM. A couple of people had mentioned an interest in addressing WLUG, but I currently don't have a definite commitment for a speaker for this meeting. I would therefore llke to use this as a planning meeting to decide what activities the group would like to pursue over the next few months. Perhaps these folks would like to make a commitment for a future WLUG meeting (if so, please contact me directly). I'll bring some light refreshments. If there are enough of us, we'll go to the Boynton Restaurant afterwards for pizza/beer. See ya later, Andy -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org

Re: [Wlug] Driver question

by John LaFleur

The Hollywood Plus has the same driver as the Creative Labs dxr3, there's a project page at http://dxr3.sourceforge.net/ I've tried the drivers on my dxr3, which worked OK, but I never got the VGA-overlay working properly. Maybe I should give them another shot... - John (jplafleur(a)adelphia.net) On Tue, 2003-06-17 at 20:00, Geoff wrote: > > I tried playing around on the net and I didn't find it in the first 100 > links on google so I was wondering if anyone out there might know this.

Driver question

by Geoff

I tried playing around on the net and I didn't find it in the first 100 links on google so I was wondering if anyone out there might know this. Do you know if there is a linux driver for the RealMagic Hollywood Plus DVD hardware decoder card by sigma designs? Geoffrey Phillips gphillips(a)clarkie.net

IIRC, the TLS stuff is related to encrypted communications, which you probably broke when compiling openssl. You either have a botched openssl install now, or you may just need to recompile ftp (and anything else that uses it) against the new openssl. -- Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu WPI Network Engineer
