Subject: System panic while reading CDROM

Well I seem to have myself an interesting problem.  Some time
back I received the NeXT 3rd party demo CDROM.  I accessed some
of the demos shortly after I received it and everything seemed
pretty much OK.  Note that at this time I was running 2.1 and
had to update the CDROM filesystem as per instructions included    
in the CDROM.  

Since that time I have upgraded to 3.0.  Since our local user
group is holding a meeting on Saturday, I thought it would be 
a good idea to show this CDROM at the meeting.  So, I take
it out, pop it in the drive and try to navigate around in it.
Well, at about the 4th or fifth directory - BLOOEY - system
panic.  This happens consistently every time I try to read the
demo CD.  I can read the 3.0 upgrade CD just fine, runs apps of
it, copy things from it, etc.  No problems with it.      

The only difference that is noticeable from the console is that
the 3rd party demo CD initialized the CDROM filesystem and the 
3.0CD does not :

What is going on here?  I have had no other system panics on my machine

early slab!

Reply-To: kickaha@siddhartha.math.lsa.umich.edu

Date: Mon, 9 Nov 1992 22:53:47 GMT


	I'm trying to get a 3.0 system to run AmS-TeX. I've encountered several  
difficulties, so I'm hoping the net can help me out:

1) After using
			initex \&tex amstex.tex
to process my copy of the (version 2.1) macro package, I use the \dump command to  
create the .fmt preloaded macro file. But when I try to USE that macro file, I get  
this:

(Nov 09 5:26pm) /kickaha/tex -> tex \&amstex
This is CTeX, NeXT Version 3.141
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
(Nov 09 5:27pm) /kickaha/tex ->

So the .fmt file is useless to me. Things don't work at all if I fail to include  
the \&tex in the initex command. Help!

2) I figured I might get a work-around by directly importing amstex each time with  
the "\input amstex" command at the start of my document. Lots of terrible stuff  
happened, mostly when triying to load the style sheet. Apparently I am missing some  
fonts, but I have no idea how to get them! I need a little explanation. Help!

I have the Joy of TeX by Spivak, but it is little help.

Example error message I received:

I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.

You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `I\font<same font id>=<substitute font name>'.

This error message usually means that the initex used to create
the format is not compatible with the virtex used to run
it. So if You upgrade your virtex, don't forget to upgrade
your initex also. 
Hope this helps.

O.K., here is a good question for you UNIX gurus. I had left my machine
(a working NeXTstation 20/200 running 3.0) for about 2 hours. When I
came back the screen was totally black. A little odd. I managed to
fix that problem with the brightness on the keyboard, but that's when 
I noticed that my NeXT was dead.

That's right, nothing worked, at all. I did the "command" "command" "~"
thing to get to the ROM monitor. I typed msg=12 to get the last couple 
of messages, and what I saw I have no idea what it means. This is recited 
from memory, because after fixing the problem I can't seem to find the
error listed anywhere. Anyway, the error reads as:

	dubtkin getting traffic on inactive circuit

What does this mean? Is it very bad?

After reading this I tried to reboot. It did nothing. I had to pull the
plug to get it back. This is where the next problem comes up. When I 
powered back up, the screen (monochrome BTW) was very (I mean very) dim.
After all the sync'ing of the disk and a clean reboot I was able to bring 
the screen back to full brightness. Why was it dim?

Any help, hints, or just a good guess would be very much appreciated.


Thanks,

I am tasked with tracking daily usage at our Universities NeXT cluster.   
Is there a tool that would simplify this task for me?

Currently, I run a shell script at the end of each month that gets a  
summary of information from the /usr/adm/wtmp file for each system.   
Somewhat combersome, but it does the trick.  Now I'll have to parse each  
line (and differentiate console and tty logins from the same user) in  
order to adequately do the job.

If you have any suggestions or know of an existing tool, please e-mail me.   
Thanks in advance (NeXT Mail welcomed/enjoyed).

I am launching NewsGrazer from a shell script which is run when my  
workspace starts up. I want NewsGrazer to hide when it starts, the same  
way it would if I started it from the dock at login. I checked "Hide On  
Atuo-Launch" in preferences for NewsGrazer, but it is not really getting  
"Autolaunched", since it isn't started from the workspace dock, but rather  
from this script.

I tried setting "dwrite NewsGrazer NXAutolaunch YES" before launching the  
app, and I can see the default is set (via dread), but it still didn't  
hide. 

Is the any approved way to convince an app it has been autolaunched? Note  
that the script at workspace startup is run via the WorkSpace LaunchPaths  
default (if that makes any difference). Thanks in advance for any answers.

Maybe, I've done something wrong, but there seems to be some other unpleasant  
features too.
I could see, that a connection which is established to a NetWare server remains  
active (AND IN LOGGED IN STATE) after I've logged out from my NeXT. Why to hell  
this ? I'm not sure if this could be a great security hole!!
The other thing is, if I try to copy some files from a large directory with  
many files and directories on it (for example the sys:mail directory with about  
1300 subdirectories on it) the performance decreases rapidely and after some  
time the connection seems to hung. Each time if this happens, I could not break  
the connection from my next, I had to switch to the Netware server console and  
to delete the connection.
BTW, I could see the File Viewer could handle such large directories but a  
simple 'ls -lR' will also die in such a directory.

Any hints and suggestions are welcome

Subject: Re: NS 3.0 Video vs. Microsoft NT Video
Date: 10 Nov 92 10:32:36 GMT
Organization: Coast Community College District, Costa Mesa, CA


I just received and viewed both of these videos and while
watching I couldn't help but notice the similarities between the NeXT
3.0 video and Ross Perot's infomercials.  They both have bold titles
for each section and are specific and detailed with very little wasted time
on la la fluff stuff.  There's even a bit of sarcastic humor when Steve
reviews the DOS architexture through Soft PC.  On the other hand there
is the Microsoft Windows NT video with a fancy Clintonian introduction
that is so overproduced that it seems sarcastically commical as it strives
for a serious tone.  By the time I realized the introduction was over
the video was literally over too.  The viewer is drilled with images--
sometimes speeded up--but given absolutely no details.  Many people balked
about how great NT is and how revolutionary it is and how easy to use it 
is but when it came down to "what did I actually learn about Microsoft NT",
my answer was that I learned nothing from watching the video aside from what
Bill Gates looks like.  I guess the difference was that Steve showed us
what NS 3.0 does and how it does it while Bill tells us what the effect 
of Windows NT will be on the industry.  Too bad though cause I was interested
in Windows NT until I saw the video.  All it needed was a few young girls 
and it could of passed for a music video.  At least it would be complete
as an entertainment video for amusement instead of an embarrassing overproduced
inimformative collage of images and interviews.  

For the record, I'm not bagging on our new president.  My comments are
regarding a poor video presentation of a product that may seriously compete
with NeXTstep someday.  So far, it doesn't look like NeXT has much to worry 
about yet.  With all that said, could someone refer me to a decent educational
source that will inform me about features of Windows NT compared to 
NeXTstep 3.0.

Another solution:
Abort the mount if the directory existists. This can be done with
netinfomanager:

name:      server:/dir
dir:       /dir
opts:      rw
	   bg                    <---------------Background !!!
type:      nfs
passno:    0
freq:      0


This works for us with two servers mounting some directories across
and 6 clients.

My Machine is drifting about 30 - 40 Seconds per day !! It seems that this has  
started after I upgraded to 3.0, but it also could be a weak battery (the cube  
is 2 years old and I switch it off every day). Any ideas how to solve it ?
