I am having trouble sort of. I run the SLS linux distribution. .99 patch 1
I am recompiling to include sound. But the makefile is confudsing on the ke
yboard. Which line do I un comment fo rthe good ol american english?

My other problem is that someties when I boot (I use a floppy to boot linux)
I dont get all three of my serial ports foiund. Sometimes I get 0 and 2
and sometime I get 1 and 2. My modem is on 0 and my mouse is on 1. 2 is empty.
Any ideas?

Oh. To include the soundkit I install the kit by unpackiong it in root directory
then editing my makefile for the appropriate card right?

I have gotten seyon to run 1.4 I believe. I put the binaries seyon and seyon-cmd
into /usr/bin/X11 then I put startup , phonelist and the other file in /usr/bin/
X11/.seyon. When I start seyon with seyon -modem /dev/ttys0. It locks up
after creating the xterm then there is a smeller window outline. Do I have 
.seyon in the right place?

Well, If I think of anymore questions I will write them out. Thanks ahead of time

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it and happy new year to all.

  Hi, can someone please email me the PROPER symlinks?  I've got
symlinks ALL over the place, and that's affecting my ability
to compile stuff; in fact, I can't compile anything properly
anymore!  Ugh..     I've got the following linux symlinks:-

     linux -> /usr/include/sys/
     /usr/include/asm -> /usr/src/linux/include/asm
     /usr/include/linux -> /usr/src/linux/include/linux

      Are these correct?  Am I missing any other symlinks,
besides '/var -> /usr'(actually, don't think this is neccessary,
but it was installed when I installed the linux system)?

      Any help appreciated..

Ok, I did the dastardly deed and forgot to sync and shutdown before I did

any files or at least I don't see any corruption. BUT efsck will not run on
any partitions (I have several Linux partitions) as either root or a normal
user. It just reports that it cant find the super block. Question is, how can
I fix this situation? The file system seems ok, I was thinking about doing
a backup and re-create the filesystems with mkefs. Is there a better way or
different way which would be less work? Should I even worry about it at all
as it seems that everything is working correctly anyhow? If I have to
re-install Linux, I might just as well go with V1.0 when it comes out.
Any helpfull thoughts would be welcome.

Yet another data point:

  I have used both psf and a2ps and I prefer a program called nenscript.
  It is a free enscript clone.  This is just a personal preference...
  nenscript could not be called as powerful or feature-ful as psf.
  I just think that the output looks better AND there is only one binary...
  no data files or configuration files that clutter up /usr/local/lib.
  Use archie to find it.  The latest version is 1.12, I beleive.

  One tip:  make sure you compile nenscript with the -fwritable-strings
  gcc flag or nenscript will segmenation fault all over you.

This means you have SCSI disks.

Fdisk defaults to /dev/hda what is the first standard(!) disk.
You have to enter "fdisk /dev/sda" to process the first SCSI disk.
(/dev/sdb for the second one).

Actually, we believe that this is a case of the irregularities of (a)
time-sharing, and (b) hardware.  XFree86 1.2 will (we hope) fix this,
or reduce the fluctuations by (a) nice'ing the server up to a high
priority before probing (it gets reset after the probe :->), and 
(b) allowing the hardware to settle after changing the selected clock,
prior to the timing loop.  But filling in the Clocks line in the
Xconfig file is always a good idea, if for no other reason than it
saves a couple of seconds at server startup time.

Not so.  Otherwise, ` char *p = "foo"; ' would elicit a warning.

However, if you try to modify a string, ANSI says that you're on your
own.  In other words: It's not const, but you must treat it like const.

1) Exactly, which version of the SLS kernel do I have?  The one listed at
   boot up says 0.99-47.  The login (getty) report 0.98p5.

2) I cannot rebuild the kernel and make it work (not panic on boot up).  So
   are there instructions some place on how (with what make config options)
   to (re)build the linux ala SLS kernel?  I want to make some minor tuning
   to it and I figured I would try to just rebuild the existing one as a
   first step.  There are no errors in the make process (as given in the
   README in /usr/src/linux.

3) Does (or will) linux support setsockopt()?  A code I am porting (a DIKU)
   sets the socket to a linger option.

4) The include files use _ARGS extensively.  What is _ARGS?  a macro?
   for example, the source code has:

      int shutdown = 1;

   the socket.h include file has:

      int shutdown _ARGS ( some stuff )

    can someone explain this to me?

      My friend has a 486-33MHZ 16 MB EISA/FAST SCSI (AMI motherboard

I tried running both 386BSD and LINUX and they both seem to die
in the same places -- around the disk drive stage.  386BSD stops
right after it is changes root device to the floppy.  LINUX stops
right after it figures out that my SCSI adapter is Adaptec 1542 compatible.
Is there any hope?  I would like to get his machine up on UNIX
(I would do mine, but my machine needs disk space...), but I don't want
to install SCO (which is sitting right next to me...boxes of floppies
and I don't get source.)  Any suggestions?

It doesn't appear the I can disable the EISA stuff.  Are we out of
luck?

How about having a group of people getting a directory in an archive
and setting up a kind of a standard source/binary tree?

386BSD has a wonderful example of this (try telnetting to ref.tfs.com) 
It's a 386BSD machine on the net, you can actually use it for
browsing around and seeing what a wonderful thing a PC-*ix is.
Having something like that for linux would, in my opinion,
be a BIG win. You can compile a new kernel there (if your machine
or harddisk is slow, there are plenty of ready-made ones,
just about all the ported packages are installed there, etc. etc.)
Now, who with an admin access to the net will volunteer their
machine for this? If there's a machine, I'm volunteering to be
an assistant administrator.

There are two separate SLIPs.  One is the ALPHA version that you
noticed.  It works with the kernel-based TCP code.  The other is KA9Q.
This is a user-mode implementation, which does not depend upon
anything in the kernel (except support for the serial port, of
course).  KA9Q performs well and is stable, but (1) supports fewer
services (primarily FTP, client telnet, and X) (2) everything is done
through a single program, so you can't have different applications
running in different windows.  (The exception is the X support.)  It
supports Van Jacobson header compression, i.e. CSLIP.  The telnet
should be fairly good (probably better than the typical versions
supplied with Unix implementations).  Its user interface is modelled
after Cisco's terminal servers (which are themselves modelled after
the TOPS-20 "tn").  It reacts to ^S, ^Q, ^C and ^O locally (if your
telnetd implements the necessary telnet options -- many do not).
Other facilities are of lower quality (roughly proportional to how
often I use them).  It's in tsx-11 binaries/usr.bin/ka9qbin.7.tar.Z
with source in source/usr.bin/ka9qsrc.7.tar.Z.  Installation
instructions are with the binary.  (If you're using anything older
than 7, you should upgrade, as 7 fixes a serious bug with header
compression, and implements mget and mput in FTP.)  Various people
have made other features work, such as incoming telnet and some kind
of mail support, but I haven't had to time integrate them into my
copy, which is what's on tsx-11.

I don't know much about the kernel implementation of SLIP, but from
the author's comments in the mailing list, it doesn't sound like it's
stable yet.  It doesn't do header compression.  However it would give
you access to the full set of networking utilities.

when I kicked the USENET stuff to Peter for inclusion in SLS0.98-5, I
included all the man pages for allthe pieces, but I didn't include the
docs that are required to install the software, which is what you're
probably looking for.

If you can drop about $25.00, the O'Reilly+Asociates book "managing
uucp and USENET" is that best one I've found.  You can also read the
news.admin and news.software hierarchies since you apparently have other
access to USENET.

I just compiled the .99p1 kernel and installed it on the hard disk. 
I am booting with LILO-0.7.
Right at bootup I get a message saying

...
Wild interrupt? (IRQ 1)
ttys0 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16450
ttys1 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16450
...

As a result of this, the mouse attached to /dev/ttys0 isn't handled properly.
However, it works just fine with the boot floppy (.98p5) made by the SLS 
installation procedure; this one also doesn't report the "Wild interrupt".

Is there a bug in .99p1 or am I doing something wrong when I compile the kernel?
Thanx for your help.
