Re: [Wlug] Uninstall Suse Linux 8.0

by Jared Greenwald

Get to a command-line and forward along a copy of your X server config file. This is either /etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/X11/xorg.conf depending on whether you are running XFree86 or X.org... That combined with the information you just sent should be enough to triage. My only concern is that you are getting events from two pointers on the usb bus that both think they are the correct mouse. That's most likely your problem, but the X server config will shed more light. -Jared On Sun, 06 Mar 2005 23:47:52 -0500, philrmcss(a)netscape.net <philrmcss(a)netscape.net> wrote: > Andy Stewart <andystewart(a)comcast.net> wrote: > > >On Sunday 06 March 2005 7:20 pm, philrmcss(a)netscape.net wrote: > >> I have installed Suse Linux Home Edition 8.0 on my machine.

In windows, they all control the cursor quite well. When I try to log in to Linux, the moment that I touch a mouse (even if I only have one -- any one -- mouse connected, my cursor moves extremely rapidly to the top of the screen, and out of sight.

Re: [Wlug] Where to get free WiFi

by Richard Klein

I realize it's risky, but I don't have internet to my house and looking things up on my tiny phone screen is driving me nuts. I have a laptop running opensuse that's useless without WiFi.

What's your use case, including device? As Tim pointed out in the last meeting, you can own people pretty quickly when they connect to your wifi. Thank you, -- Eric

non-Linux: Looking for a free kitten locally

by Tatsh

I know I have not ever sent an email, but I've been on the mailing list for some time. Been extremely interested in going to meetings but just have not done so yet. If you are local, and have healthy kittens to give away or know anyone who does locally (I live in Lancaster, about 20 minutes away from Worcester), please respond. Looking to just get one, at maximum 5 months old. I have been scouring the web and craigslist and have not found much. I do not really want to drop the amount they want at the local animal shelter. Any help appreciated. Thanks Andrew 978-870-5908

Proliant 1600 for sale

by Mike Leo

I go back and forth on this, but I have a Compaq Proliant 1600, dual 450 (or 500, i forget), with 6 18gig drives, plus an F1 full of 18gig drives, plus some spares. I can also put in a DLT drive. It runs fine, but is loud. I go back and forth with wanting to sell it 'cause I didn't think anyone would be interested. But is anyone? $600 for the whole shabang. I can get more specific specs once I get home. I can bring it to a lug meeting, or can arrange shipping. Let me know... Mike __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: [Wlug] HSI Vent Maybe Help?

by ted

Hi WLUG So here is the info for anyone else who had my problem connecting to Verizon for the first time. (I write this for the archives) The Westell 6100G modem default IP admin and password: 192.168.1.1 admin password To access the internet and set up your account you have to go to: http://192.168.1.1/verizon/redirect.htm "Hidden Redirect Page" You click the disable button, and then your on the internet. The tech support guy then insisted on helping me set up my Verizon email. Not necessary, but I didn't want to hang up on the guy. Oh, and does the WLUG go out for beer anytime? (as in non-meeting socializing?) Ted

Hi Greg, What happens if you create a brand new user, and then log in as that user and fire up KDE? I'm wondering if there is a system problem or if something is fubar in one of your user specific KDE files.
