epson 480 printer cartridge
by Pradnyesh Sawant 01 Feb '03

01 Feb '03

first of all i wud like 2 apologise 2 all of u for having my mail cause so much of flames on the grp. it was only b'coz of incomplete info provided by me. the other mistake that i realized i had made was 2 ask questions directly on the list without trying 2 find the ans myself first. tried 2 take the easy way out. but now that i've realized my mistake, i will try not to commit the mistake again. having apologised, i wud also like 2 make some clarifications: actually the epson 480 color stylus printer comes with a MS windows based utility 2 bring the cartridge holder in the open (from beneath the cover) while changing the cartridge. also after changing the cartridge, the ink in the new cartridge has 2 be charged b4 the printer can start printing. also other utilities provided r nozzle cleaning, head positioning, etc. it is **not** possible 2 open the printer & change the cartridge manually. (so i can't do ne thing even if god has given me 2 hands & a brain) also my printer IS connected to a linux machine (although i also have a windows OS, which i never use (it is there for my brother who uses the comp only 2 play games like NFS, cricket, etc which, unfortunately r not available on the linux platform)) it doesn't make sense 2 switch 2 windows just 2 change the printer cartridge. consider the case of a guy (probably hypothetical) who has the same printer but has only linux on his machine my question is definitely related to GNU/linux & i think that it was not at all out of place when it occured on the mailing list. P.S: although i took all the sarcasm in a very light & joking manner, i wud sincerely REQUEST all of u to plz not use a rude language & flame each other, which wud only result in migration of a linux newbie like me again 2 WINDOZE. -- Pradnyesh Sawant ( The Doubtfire ) Ph: 27703060 B.E.

[OT] Xqueeze Reference Implementation (C++) available
by Tahir Hashmi 01 Feb '03

01 Feb '03

Hi all! I am glad to announce that after ages of delay, a Reference Implementation for Xqueeze (pronounced as ex-kweez) is now available in C++. You can download it from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xqueeze Xqueeze project aims to derive better performance from applications that use XML as the underlying data exchange mechanism and where human-readability is not a concern. The objectives for Xqueeze are: * Minimization of space consumed by markup * Compatibility with XML based design, development and deployment * Fast parsing * Minimum/no loss of generality afforded by XML Xqueeze uses an alternate markup scheme called xqML (xqueeze Markup Language) that is structurally similar to XML but has much more compact markup and is easier to parse. For details, check out http://xqueeze.sourceforge.net You may also like to join the mailing list. See: http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/xqueeze-users Developers: Tahir Hashmi <tnhashmi AT users.sourceforge.net> Swapnil Shrivastava <swapn AT users.sourceforge.net> Soarabh Madan <soarabh AT users.sourceforge.net> -- Tahir Hashmi (VSE, NCST) http://staff.ncst.ernet.in/tahir tahir AT ncst DOT ernet DOT in We, the rest of humanity, wish GNU luck and Godspeed

2 minor problems after kernel recompilation..
by Apurva Mehta 01 Feb '03

01 Feb '03

Hi, This is my first post to this mailing list although I have been lurking for a couple of months... I am facing 2 problems with my GNU/Linux box (Redhat 7.2, Kernel 2.4.19) since I installed the 2.4.19 kernel a couple of months ago.. 1) My system does not turn off automatically after issuing the powerdown command.. I have to turn it of manually. Earlier, with the RH 7.2 default kernel (2.4.7-10), the power would switch off automatically. Here are the how the relevant variables are set : CONFIG_PM=y CONFIG_APM=m # CONFIG_APM_IGNORE_USER_SUSPEND is not set CONFIG_APM_DO_ENABLE=y CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE=y # CONFIG_APM_DISPLAY_BLANK is not set CONFIG_APM_RTC_IS_GMT=y CONFIG_APM_ALLOW_INTS=y # CONFIG_APM_REAL_MODE_POWER_OFF is not set I got these settings from linuxnewbie.org a couple of months ago. They do not work for me, nor can I explain why they are the way they are. They seem to work for others with a similar problem though. 2) I cannot mount audio cd's anymore. I can play them through gtcd, I just cannot rip them.. The mount command tells me that I got a bad fs type or there are too many mounted filesystems. I can mount normal data cd's easily enough.. Also, what is a good strategy to follow while compiling a kernel? Is it better to make as many modules as possible or the other way round? Are there any particular features which would be better off as part of the kernel image rather than as modules? Currently, I have compiled very few features as modules. Thanks for your time.. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Apurva Mehta PGP Public Key: http://www.geocities.com/theprancinghorse/pgp_public_key.txt -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

But server has one problem.When m/c get rebooted after some days uptime,it doesnot bring eth0 up by stating that other host is having same ip. so,i have to change ip in eth0's ifconfig file.then only it comes up on network. so,what cud be the problem??? i think there's something wrong with NIC.bad NIC which doesnot release ip. or some network drivers problem?? Any suggestions are apprecitated. Thanks in advance. Rgds, kavita
