Problems with X (SiS 6215c and Sampo Monitor on SuSE 7.1)
by Kinjal Sonpal 07 Sep '01

07 Sep '01

Hi Luggers! One of my friends has SiS6215c Display Card with 2mb VRAM. He recently installed SuSE 7.1 in his machine. The monitor is Sampo AlphascanSV. The problem is that, the display card is not being detected. Hence he's not being able to run X. When he tried to run SaX, the SuSE X configurator, not even the initial screen comes up. Entire screen looks very garbled and after some time SaX exits. We tried xf86config, but we did not get any near as my freind has misplaced all of the Manuals and docs. We also tried our hands during installation, but that too went in vain. Anyone having similar configuration, please help. I think there was a patch available for the display card, but I cud not find on the net. TIA. Warm Regards, $ sonpal -kj _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Support Services for Linux Based Environment
by K M 07 Sep '01

07 Sep '01

Hi, My company is setting up a number of linux desktops and servers in our offices at Delhi, Bombay, Indore and . Since there is a lack of appropriately trained personnel, the management is considering outsourcing some of the initial setup and the subsequent software support services. I wanted to find out of there are any firms in Delhi and Bombay which offer such services for Linux environment and what is the range of annual / per call charges. I have been told that Red Hat has also setup its operations in India but I haven't been able to find out their contact and service details. Please mail me information regarding linux services and Red Hat's India operations. Thank you, Kamat __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [ILUG-BOM] Cyberoam client
by Amish Mehta 07 Sep '01

07 Sep '01

Hi You can also use '-d' command line option in which case the client doesnt go in background and writes debug information to stdout, stderr. I dont remember much abt code, you can send the output to me. Code can be found at http://briefcase.yahoo.com/amishmm Please also read README. Also recently the Cyberoam had launched new client and I was asked to update to new client. So probably they have changed the protocol. I will try check it in 1 weeks time. Amish.

Cyberoam client
by S. Krishnan 07 Sep '01

07 Sep '01

Mitul, The original code was written by Amish Mehta. It worked in daemon mode off a console screen. You had to kill the process to stop it. I wrote a GTK based X client based on Amish's network code. However, since I do not have access to a Cyberoam account, I could not test it, except in simulation. Kishor Bhagwat has reported some problems with it. Anyway, I will e-mail you the code from home tonight. See if you can debug it and get it to work properly. If you want the original console daemon code, please ask Amish for the download details (I think he had a Yahoo download site, IIRC). Regards, Krishnan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email alerts & NEW webcam video instant messaging with Yahoo! Messenger http://im.yahoo.com

What's the bad thing about threads on Linux? How is multi-threading on Linux different from other OSes? Tnx. Manish -- A billion here, a billion there -- pretty soon it adds up to real money. -- Sen. Everett Dirksen, on the U.S. defense budget
