HI everybody, Now that I have a laptop, I'm interested in a Wireless LAN for it. I'm wondering if this is a topic of general interest that somebody might like to present at our next meeting. Later, Andy -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org

tmpfs
by Bill Mills-Curran 02 Jul '02

02 Jul '02

When researching the Reiserfs a while back, I discovered the tmpfs file system and the --bind option to mount. Both of these are nice tools to have around. --bind has made it into the mount man page, but the tmpfs is not documented in the man pages anywhere I can think to look. Does anyone know of a reason that it should not be used? I'm thinking of using it for some locking files and pid stamps -- all stuff that should not persist across a reboot. TIA, Bill

Help with Audio on Linux
by Prakash Purushotham 01 Jul '02

01 Jul '02

Gurus I have a P-IV with AC97 on i810 (AvanceLogic ALC200/200P). I am unable to get FullDuplex audio working. I have installed the RC2 release of ALSA drivers but still, mic and speakers don't work together. I am pretty sure I am missing something in the configs. I have not been able to get any leads from Google. (Rh7.2, kernel 2.4.9-31, alsa-drivers 0.9rc2) TIA Best regards Prakash Purushotham

hardware problem?
by avedis＠ma.ultranet.com 01 Jul '02

01 Jul '02

I just had trouble booting into linux. Tried several times, but kept getting a blank screen, so I booted windoze. I noticed that I saw nothing on the screen until I got to my windows desktop, so I tried booting to linux again, and waited for my hard drive light to stop. Then I logged in with a blank screen, called up X, and it came up fine. Any ideas why my startup screen is missing? I haven't tried going into my bios yet, to see if it comes up on the screen. I'm not sure I remember how to get out of the bios on this machine, so I'm a little hesitant to go there. I'm not sure how to proceed, so any ideas are welcome.

What are Lindows and Lycoris?
by Andy Stewart 28 Jun '02

28 Jun '02

HI all, Walmart is selling ultra-cheap PCs with Lindows on them (the PC is by Microtel). The screen shots look alot like KDE. Lindows makes software available for download on their website (the apps, not the OS) for a fee. I've also seen Lycoris, and on their website, they make passing references to Redmond Linux. So, I ask the question, are these just some version of Linux "packaged for the masses"? If not, what are they? Are there other similar products besides Lindows and Lycoris?

Lilo :-)
by doug waud 27 Jun '02

27 Jun '02

Hi all On the TV lately I have heard a lot about Lilo. It seems to be in the context of something called Stitch. I am not clear on the details but Stitch apparently is some sort of extraterrestial with a bent to destroying everything it encounters. I assume the reference is, therefore, to Microsoft. The interesting thing about Lilo is that it never seems to be spelled LILO. The first letter is captialized so I assume there is some degree of case sensitivity involved. If any of you can decipher what all of this means perhaps you could fill me in! :-) I do notice that Disney seems to be involved so it would seem that Pixar is not the only place Linux seems to be making inroads. doug

RE: [Wlug] Installing Redhat on HP machines

Thank you all for your help.... just wanted to let you know the outcome of the installs... On the HP Vectra, there appears to be some hardware issues, as Windows 2K boot floppy fails with a Boot I/O Error. This machine has been suspect, and I will probably scavenge it for parts (CD, Memory) (It has had some intermittent problems finding the HDD.) On the HP Kayak..... it's UP! I downloaded the new boot disk image from the email below, and the install ran without a hitch. It must not like the 7.2 standard boot image since it failed both from the install disk and from the boot floppy I made straight from the CDROM. (This was a CD burned from the WLUG installfest in February and it has installed faithfully on about a dozen machines.) Thank you again. jeff -----Original Message----- From: Charles R.

It depends. Does the signal 11 always happen at exactly the same point? If so, that doesn't necessarily point to flakey hardware, but rather a software bug. If it IS random, then it does sound like a memory error. You can test your RAM with memtest86, available here: http://www.memtest86.com/ Another thing you can try is making sure the amount of memory is detected correctly by Linux (check the boot up messages of the Linux kernel). If not, you can force the correct amount by appending the mem option to the linux boot command line: linux updates mem=56M You need the "updates" bit to use the update-disk mentioned earlier.

I am having a problem installing Redhat 7.2 on 2 different HP machines. I thought I might be able to get some information from the plethera of people who have done installs.

Hi again, Over the weekend, I received some "creative" feedback and all of it is appreciated. Why question was intended to find an easy way to track down the owner of an IP address within our corporate network (unregistered with DNS/WINS). Not to hack, crack, spam, or DOS them, but to gain information on that particular node. I have to bring this IP address to the attention of our Security Team, but wanted more information to give them. Given all the feedback, it seems easier just to contact the Security Team and let them figure this out. Thanks again for your time.

fsck, segmantation fault, etc.
by Baris Hasdemir 24 Jun '02

24 Jun '02

Hi, I bought a new hard drive, Maxtor 7200 RPM, ATA133, 40GB, and began using it at ATA100. I formatted my /dev/hda5 with mkfs.ext2 and mounted it under /home. I have been using this mount with the Slackware 8.0 at /dev/hda6 for several days without any problems. Two days ago I installed Slackware8.1 on /dev/hda8 and used the same device mounted to /home. (/dev/hda5) Yesterday under root privileges I attempted to delete a user's two big files, and got the following error (or warning, I don't know): root@penguen:/home/avci# rm more_than_700MB_files* EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block = 1083636778, count = 1 EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block = 1083606420, count = 1 EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block = 1083602068, count = 1 EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_free_blocks: Freeing blocks not in datazone - block = 1083602292, count = 1 root@penguen:/home/avci# ls -al total 24 drwx--x--x 2 avci misafir 4096 Jun 23 12:47 ./ drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 Feb 25 2001 ../ -rw------- 1 avci misafir 36 Jun 17 17:26 .bash_history -rw-r--r-- 1 avci misafir 34 Jun 17 16:44 .less -rw-r--r-- 1 avci misafir 114 Jun 17 16:44 .lessrc -rw-r--r-- 1 avci misafir 3394 Jun 17 16:44 .screenrc However, rm deleted the files. But I couldn't understand the warning. And then, just because of curiosity I tried to copy one of the same big files from another partition to the same location, and cp gave out those: root@penguen:/home/avci# time cp /mnt/hda10/one_of_the_big_files . Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004 *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0002 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[<c0128240>] Tainted: P EFLAGS: 00010046 eax: cbf58000 ebx: 00000003 ecx: ca000000 edx: 00000000 esi: c1405e50 edi: 00000202 ebp: c12f1f80 esp: c14e7efc ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 Process kswapd (pid: 4, stackpage=c14e7000) Stack: ca000240 cbe9b8c0 cbe9bb40 c12f1f80 c0130f12 c1405e50 ca000240 c0132a9c ca000240 ca000240 c12f1f80 000001d0 00000009 00000200 c013118c c12f1f80 000001d0 cbe9bb40 c12f1f80 c0128f62 c12f1f80 000001d0 00000020 000001d0 Call Trace: [<c0130f12>] [<c0132a9c>] [<c013118c>] [<c0128f62>] [<c01291a6>] [<c012921c>] [<c01292b3>] [<c0129316>] [<c012942d>] [<c0105708>] Code: 89 42 04 89 10 8b 46 08 89 48 04 89 01 8d 56 08 89 51 04 89 real 0m54.986s user 0m0.060s sys 0m7.330s And then of course I did a couple of fsck on this partition after unmounting. first one quitted after several error correcting, second fsck did segmentation fault but the last one did finish fsck. and lots of error were corrected. It might give an idea if I mount it like this #mount /dev/hda5 /home file names appear as $@#$#%#$ etc. but if I mount it like that #mount /dev/hda5 /home -t ext2 no problem seem to occur. I am thinking about whether I did something missing at the fdisk stage or formatting stage. Or is my new hard disk a dead-born? Or any other things you may notice? thank you, baris

18 Jun '02

http://digitalmass.boston.com/news/globe_tech/at_large/2002/0617.html Today's edition of the Boston Globe has an article about collaborative tools. Featured in the article is a product called SiteScape which I had seemed demo'd just last week. Many of the features of the collaborative tool set are familiar to me in other settings: email, IRC (for "immediate" stuff), news (for discussions) and version control to track document modifications. One feature they mentioned that I have not encountered in the UNIX/Linux/Gnu world is a collaborative whiteboard that allows different users to share an electronic whiteboard. Has anyone seen anything like this in the open source community? Ideally, it would be web-based so that it would not be specific to any one client OS. Thanks, Bill

Laptop question - screen resolution
by Andy Stewart 18 Jun '02

18 Jun '02

HI WLUG, My laptop has a 15" screen rated for 1024x768. I setup my laptop to have 3 resolutions in my XF86Config file: 1024x768 (default) 800x600 640x480 With XFree86 4.x, it appears that I don't explicitly need to specify a mode line any more (but I can if I wish). SuSE's configuration process puts a mode line in for me. When I run X and then run xvidtune, when I'm in 1024x768 mode, it indicates a refresh of 60 Hz. However, when I run in 800x600 mode, xvidtune thinks the refresh rate is around 90Hz, and in 640x480 mode, xvidtune thinks the refresh rate is 131 Hz(!). I'm not sure I believe it since I don't think the display can handle that (but if it is true, am I seriously overdriving the display?). Also note that in the lower resolution modes, the display actually looks a tad fuzzy. I am not using anti-aliased fonts. Is this normal for laptops or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Andy -- Andy Stewart, Founder Worcester Linux Users' Group Worcester, MA USA http://www.wlug.org

Javascript Help
by Wesley Allen 18 Jun '02

18 Jun '02

Guys, My Javascript + dhtml has always been one great hack. And, unlike the other scripting languages I use (all open source) there just doesn't seem to be a great "javascript community" on the web. Just lots of free samples (yes, i've googled, maybe not enough). Here's my problem. I've got a table and I want one column to be used to display the different links in each area. If I mouse over "about us" I want the other table to display the links for that area. when I do this outside a table, I just create a bunch of <div>'s that are hidden, and just Javascript to make them visible and raise their z-index at the proper time (yes, terrible hack, my javascript sucks). In the table, I'm not sure how to "stack" the different <div>'s. I though relative positioning would do the trick, because the parent for all of the <div>'s should be the <td> tag, but instead the <div>'s relatively position to one another. So, I'm kinda stuck. Any help you can give would be great, web sites with tutorials are great too. Pre-made scripts are ok, but I'm actually trying to learn something here. Thanks, Wes

It was under "Global Image or Other Image", in my case ISO is Other Image. -----Original Message----- From: David Goss [mailto:vze2bd6u@verizon.net] Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 9:30 PM To: wlug(a)mail.wlug.org Subject: Re: [Wlug] Burning ISO's i've got 73 on cd if you need a copy... but from what i've seen so far don't rush into anyuthing... 72 with a couple kernal upgrades runs just as well... assimilation is futile dave goss ----- Original Message ----- From: "Keller, Tim" <Tim.Keller(a)stratus.com> To: <wlug(a)mail.wlug.org> Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 1:50 PM Subject: RE: [Wlug] Burning ISO's > Your other solution might be to bribe a member of wlug to make a copy of > their 7.3 disks in exchange for a free beer after the meeting tonight. > > unfortunately, 1.

OK, here is my hack of a function (I'll make it better later). Right now, it works in mozilla and Konqueror; but not IE. Anyone out there know Javascript well enough to tell me how to make this cross-browser? function changeMap(map) { if (map == 1) { document.bingo.setAttribute("usemap","#map1"); } else if(map == 2){ document.bingo.setAttribute("usemap","#map2"); } } Thanks, Wes
