    Greetings ,

     

    In any case , let's suppose your server is the one with XP.

     

    To your Linux Box :

     

    To use samba , install the necessary packages

     

    To mount a shared folder from your XP to you linux box using samba

     

    mount -t smbfs -o username=XXX ( password field aint necessary , cause either you got either you dont have a passwd ( which in that case you just press ENTER anyway ) asks you by itself )

    so :

     

    mount -t smbfs -o username=XXX //winXPpcName/ShareFolder'sName /mnt/MOUNTPOINT

     

    ***MOUNTPOINT*** must be present before all that.

     

    That way you mount a shared folder.

     

    Now as for the LAN/share INTERNET connection,what are we talking about here...DSL , DIALUP ?

    Greetings,

     

    Samba will do the trick , AS for the internet share it'll be real easy , which one you want for server though ? XP or your linux BOX?

     

    () Keep in mind that the mount will be ReadOnly or you need to allow others to modify the shared folder ... ???

     

    Just state your problem , and be more specific about everything so you can be helped

     

    Cheers

    Greetings ,

     

    Happens all the time with me too, i guess it's something like a coincidence , or due to my browser's options ... or something else ?

     

    Actually it was keep reDirecting me to .com instead of .org

     

    I tried with galeon instead of konqueror and .org worked like a charm

     

    ()Konqueror , i dont keep cookies or cache , so i was suprised , cause every time i was typing blabla.org that was doing the .org .com all the time and the popup for confirmation occured all the time

     

    Anyway

     

    Cheers

    as root : rpm -e k_deflt --nodeps

    rpm -e the source you've installed that too

    --nodeps

     

    Then reboot and start the installation of redhat

    and install again the default kernel from your CD's

    Greetings ,

     

    I have problems compiling karamba ( 0-17 )

     

    rpm -qa |grep qt3 |more :

     

    qt3-non-mt-3.0.5-92

    qt3-3.0.5-72

    qt3-devel-tools-3.0.5-92

    qt3-devel-doc-3.0.5-72

    qt3-devel-3.0.5-72

     

    karamba :

    checking for Qt... libraries /usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib, headers /usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/include using -mt

    checking for moc... not found

    configure: error: No Qt meta object compiler (moc) found!

    Please check whether you installed Qt correctly.

    You need to have a running moc binary.

    configure tried to run and the test didn't

    succeed. If configure shouldn't have tried this one, set

    the environment variable MOC to the right one before running

    configure.

    ls /usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/bin/ :

     

    assistant linguist lupdate mergetr msg2qm qm2ts qtconfig

    designer lrelease makeqpf moc qconfig qmake uic

     

    moc -v

    Qt Meta Object Compiler version 19 (Qt 3.0.5)

     

     

    () These are with : ./configure --with-qt-libraries=/usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib --with-qt-includes=/usr/lib/qt3-0.5/include

     

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

     

    Farewell

    Hi again ,

     

    Well actually no,i'll give it a try

     

    I'm kinda used to it ... 'beta testing' and in general try out anything at all,even distros to see their variatons,newer/older versions of apps etc.So it's not heavy.I guess i'll find out how to fix this,somehow...

     

    Lately i was working on going deeper with winex3 to get more games to work.That kinda stuff And some raceSims for linux

     

    SuSE is quite good but i dont use YaST for ext programs/libs etc ,

     

    Rpms/tars's the thing.

    () YaST seems to have hard time on installing packages

     

    Transcode-> when i was trying to update from 0.X.3 i tried within YaST but no luck(lots of deps).So i switched to console and rpm -ivh file.rpm|rpm -Uvh file.rpm and no deps at all,kinda weird huh ?

     

    I'll see what's wrong with that too.

     

    Anyway thank you for your time.

     

    I can steal time once/twice a week to share with you a bit of everything

     

    Be good and we can meet here again smile

     

    PS Let me know if you find out anything else and i'll let you know as well about how it went that apt-get thing

    Greetings ,

     

    I did that smile Actually dealt with the deps as well.

     

    2of'em.Alu and apt-get-pkg i think ? Anyway the thing about that apt-get is that always says that the ver is the latest and just exits

     

    ie : apt-get update glibc

    apt-get install glibc

     

    Keeps telling me that the ver installed is the latest.

    LOL

     

    Even with qt3 that i've tried cause i need to update my qt-3.0.5 to qt-3.1.X.

     

    Still no dice.

     

    Now either i wait to update to 8.2 ( SuSE pro ) or i try more with tar/rpm.

     

    apt-get excausted me so i wont stick with that.I'll try the old fashion way to update'em

     

    Thank you again for your concern man

     

    I'll let you know when something comes up with these

    Greetings ,

     

    I Thought would be great to have an "open" topic which we can all talk/ask and share knowledge and opinions & thoughts about this issue

     

    I'd like to share with you and that's why i made a start of something like this

     

    Here we can discuss about DvD & Games performance not only within X and in general about our box's performance

     

    So here we go ...

     

     

    Using xine-ogle-mplayer is kinda great watching our movies

     

    Playing some games within X which are using 3D ( if out card supports 3D within X )

     

    The first thing which we must check is our hardware , then if our hardware's is supported by our distro and the related applications

     

    Xine,ogle,mplayer , both of'em in their project sites have some info about the performance.

     

    Xine - http://dvd.sourceforge.net/xine-howto/en_GB/html/howto-9.html

     

    Ogle - http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/groups/dvd/

     

    The most important is ( if it's supported ) to enable DMA ( stands for direct memory access ) so we can get a better performance of our combo/dvd/cdrom/cdrw/hdd

     

    We can check if it's enabled with

     

    hdparm /dev/hda | /dev/hdc

     

    And much more which will be discused concerning our problems or thoughts,opinions

     

    As for games , we can execute 3Ddiag to get some info and switch to :

     

    /usr/X11R6/bin/switch2xf86_glx if it's necessary

     

    *16/24bit* within X could cause the non 3D usage and vice versa

     

     

    Farewell

     

     

    To be continued ...

    Greetings ,

     

    We all know how painful is that spam thing with all the advs and all that kind of crap we don't care about for sure receiving with our other mails.

     

    Using kmail-evolution-pine or whatever , how is possible to configure spamassassin to do it's magic ?

     

    There's spamd and there's spamc.

     

    Both files must be copied in any path of our selection

     

    Then we have to make spamd to run in the background

     

    The invoke spamc instead of spamassassin where must be done ?

     

    Is there another way to avoid these spam crap ? If not how that invoke thing could be done ?

     

    I guess that issue is quite serious , i mean about spam in general and we all trying to figure out a better way to deal with it.

     

    I'm open to any conversation with you about that subject and it'll be much appreciated if someone of you could tell me how that spamassassin configuration must be done.

     

    Farewell

    Allright with the kernel.Acpi/bluetooth/irda

     

    Every thing works great , like Rock

     

    The steps to deal with the kernel panic were ( if you configured with reiserFS / scsi emulation within the kernel's options otherwise these were the causes ) are

     

    a) root (hd0,1)

    B) setup (hd0,1)

    c) kernel=/boot/vmlinuz

    d) initrd=/boot/initrd

    e) chainloader (hd0,1)+1 ( or +21 )

    f) boot

    Greetings ,

     

    The first guy who started with his post was talking about windows ? Cause i think i saw something about powerdvd etc.

     

    If yes,then you can try with `remote selector'

     

    www.visualdomain.net <------ You can obtain that from there

     

    I remember'd that cause i was using RSelector with my dxr3 when i was using windows

     

    Otherwise if it's not about the software that'll do the trick as well.Check it's site.

     

    You can also update your firmware.Which you must be kinda cautious though.

     

    As for linux , well no region problem at all.

    Greetings ,

     

    Try as well to change your vga to vesa typical you know what i'm talking about , and the max resolution that's supported by your monitor and choose hz normal values.

     

    See where you go from there

     

    All these in case what i've told you before don't do anything

     

    () That one solved many problems due to some incompatible issues between ati various cards | TFT monitors

    Greetings ,

     

    I once saw that very same problem at somebody else too which occured due to wrong configuration.I mean he probably used `the finger' you know against his bootloader's configuration

     

    That freeze you get is cause your bootloader's fucked up real good

     

    Now , try to reinstall grub 1st

     

    Then , () you compiled your kernel as well ?

     

    Type grub , when you get it's prompt

    a) root (hd0,1)

    B) setup (hd0,1)

    c) kernel=/boot/vmlinuz

    d) initrd=/boot/initrd

    e) chainloader (hd0,1)+1

    f) boot

     

    * Try if with the above steps you got the same freeze to jump the (f) step and write reboot instead and then mk_initrd *

     

    Farewell

    Greetings ,

     

    1) root (hd0,1)

    2) setup (hd0,1)

    3) kernel=/boot/vmlinuz

    4) initrd=/boot/initrd

    5) chainloader (hd0,1)+1 ( if not try +21 as well )

    5) boot

     

    You should get the boot screen with linux/windows ( If the map lst

    are configured properly )

     

    Farewell

    Greetings ,

     

    a) su root

    B) init 3

    c) press CTRL+C to get prompt when the init has been reached

    d) vim /etc/X11/XF86Config ( vim = editor , you can use pico , vi as well )

    e) add the following line within the screen section : Option "CrtScreen"

    f) Press Escape and write wq! to save the changes and exit the same time ( ESC and then wq! is vim's option to save n' exit )

    g) init 5 ( and you should go directly to your X otherwise , press CTRL+C and write : startx

    Everything's okay even with my dvdrip.

     

    Take some time though but at least doesnt kill your cpu due its process.

     

    One good set up of your box and ROCKS

     

     

    Farewell
