Distribution: world
Date: 28 Dec 1992 06:39:42 GMT


This is a system-state-program which replaces the F$PrsNam call of
the kernel to allow all characters in your filename except / @
The module can be installed as a system-extention in your init module.
Enjoy it...

I haven't got a solution for the telnet problem.
If you can use REMOTE SHELL (rsh) instead you may have a workaround.
(Btw, I use the 3c503 (Etherlink II Adapter 2227) driver,
 the rsh comes from SLS and kernel is 0.99.1 (was once 0.99))

I use something like this:

  rsh xterm-host-name 'xterm -d my-linux-box-name:0.0' &

to get a nice xterm on the linux-box X-display.
Haven't had any problems with hangups.

(Ofcourse, you must have a proper .rhost file on the host where you
 run the xterm and that may not be acceptable to you wrt security.)

The only (?) remaining problems are that the incoming data rate
is as low as 3-4 kb/s (outgoing is 200kb/s) and that an incoming tcp/ip
connection sometimes can time out if it is subject to high data rates.
(This is receiving/sending data from a sparc2.)

Subject: Defragger Success.

   Hello fellow Linuxers: Happy Holidays!
   I compiled the extended file system defrager edefrag, and it worked very
well, giving my hard drive a boost in speed. Thanks to the author(s).

   There has been a lot of discussion about efs stability.  I've been using
 the extfs almost from the day it was available, I had to hack the kernel to
 be able to mount it.  Way back then, I reinstalled the system a few times,
 because the file system started acting strange, but I never lost the drive.
   Lately, though the extfs has been rock solid, with zero problems for at
 least the last 5 months.  I just have one big extfs (100+megs).
   Thanks Remy and friends.  Just another unsung linux hero :-).

I get a similar problem with FTPD.  I can ftp to a remote machine but
can't do the reverse.  The remote user connects, responds to username
and password prompts and then Linux hangs.
ftp "hostname" on the Linux machine connects, accepts a username
and password then hangs.

The problem you are having with gcc is the 2M of ram. The kernel grabs about
a meg anymore depending on its configuration and your motherboard.
(Some motherboards won't give back the shadow bios, and therefore
you lose 384k of good ram). 

You might try adding more swap also, because gcc likes around 2M of ram,
so you're leaving it with around 500k to play with. (The buffer cache takes
up about 500k also). I have a feeling you wouldn'tbe able to recompile the
kernel, because gcc would run out of memory during optimization.

All in all, the biggest difference you will see is by adding more memory.
Adding swap will help, but onboard memory will increase your speed greatly.

The problem is that the library needs to be world readable.  Do a

Probably not.  When linked, a jump-table program will contain an imbedded 
name of the shared library to load.  By the magic of jump tables, a 
program will be compatable with future shared libraries, which is why you
you can create a link from the old name to the new name. 

As long as you have a program that has the old name imbedded in it, you
need a file with the name of the static image for linux to load, or the
program will refuse to run.  You can deturmine what name a program uses
for the image with the ldd program.

I did an ln -fs libc.so.4.2, however, I can't sync at "login:". Also,
when I do a halt on bash, the system halt message is all jumbled up.
Does that mean I'll have to compile sync and halt with libc.so.4.2??
Once I've got it working, can I delete libc.so.4.1 and libc.so.4.0??

Any info will be appreciated...

Should work fine, just do a configure i386-linux and it should make fine.

Do all the steps to insure it worked. It takes about 2-3 hours on my 486-33

I may be stupid, but I ask everyone to reserve judgement for now. ;)
the address is ftpmail@sunsite.unc.edu.  For those of you who figured it
out and have started using it, and are disappointed at its slow response:

I had disabled it for a couple of days until I fixed the bug that was
filling up the drive that it was on.  Bad stuff. But all fixed now.
ftpmail away! :)

Has anyone tried recompiling the minix fs with, say, 40 character filenames,
is this just a matter of changing a #define?  Since I am about to install
a new linux system on my second machine and dont care about the backward 
compatibility, I would love to do this and still maintain the performance
benefits of the minix fs over the extfs.

Greetings,

I am trying to install the SLS package from my DOS partition.

the sysinstall help is rather vague on this subject.  I have created the
linux file systems and booted off of the floppies.   NO problems.

The sysinstall command is the problem. I have read through all the docs 
but I cant figure out how to make the install come from the DOS partition.

I have tried sysinstall -all -instsrc /dos/linux -instroot /mnt
and other variations.

/dos/linux is where the untarred distribution lies.  /dos is the mounted dos
partition.  /mnt is the  root linux filesystem.

what am I doing wrong. I seems like I am so close ?

Thanks. Rob.

Thank you! (And thanks to Linus and all the other world class programmers out there
who made this the ultra cool system it is!  Wow, what a great system.  You guys could
teach sun/hp/microsoft/etc some lessons!)

After changing my mouse to com2 as suggested above, I get the color x screen and
a clock and a bash window :^)  But, my mouse doesn't seem to work right :^(
When I move the mouse, I sporadically get the cursor to move.  I have a logitech+
version 2.12 mouse.  In my Xconfig file I've set the baud rate to 9600 and the
sample rate to 150.  I've tried the mouse program in the tst directory of
/usr/X386 with roughly the same results.  So now what?  I'm stuck again.

BTW, I remember reading that if you selected a com port for which the hardware
didn't exist, you would lock up the machine.  I also figured out that com1 was
/dev/ttys0.  Then I set the config file to (the nonexistant) COM3.  Sheesh.  I 
really am a cone head.

	The problem, though, seems to be that if you don't create the
mailbox in the adduser script, that the first email that is received
will do so...but not being owned by the user who owns the mailbox.
Why, I don't know.  I have it running right now, and it is setGID to

No getting any response from console window under X.

I'm using xdm, so all my getty's in inittab are turned off.
After logging into X, I have an iconized console window.
It was started by xconsole (setup by SLS, I didn't
touch the config files). I noticed when I'm not in X, under SLS 99,
I get console messages on the screen (ie, logging in as root).

When under X nothing is going to the console window, it also doesn't
repond to anything when in it. (is this normal?) I tried
running a getty, but when xdm is started up, I can't login,
it doesn't respond to any keyboard input.

This telnet does not allow logins to my Linux machine.  It connects
and then hangs.

Hi Activists,
	Just a short hardware question .... is anyone using the older
NEC 4d with a good resolution and scan rate for X11 (Xfree ver 1.1)

I noticed that refurbished ones are going for about $475 at the shows and
it would seem to be an improvement over my 14" 35 khz. Nanao 8060s.

	Emacs runs fine in text mode. When I start emacs in a xterm, the seperae
cursor keys print out B,A,C,D instead moving the cursor. I looked into Xmodmap
and found nothing wrong with the key assignment. I am sure some of you had this
same problem and have solution for it.
