Hello All,
Looking for resources on working on a very small footprint GNU/Linux
for project we plan to start in the Affordable Solutions Lab. The idea
is to put enough stuff on 32MB Flash RAM, in a thin machine that can
run Mozilla and some apps, probably based on it using XUL.
We looked at uclinux, but that's not what we are looking for ... The
project aims to squeeze a normal network enabled kernel, with display,
VMM etc into as small a size as possible.
Any pointers?
Sameer.

Hi
I wasn't able to create a username with dots (m.vinayak) on my local machine
which runs RH 9. Any idea why this has been disabled and how this can be
circumvented. This was allowed on RH 8. Do all latest distros do the same
thing or is this a RH thing?
Thanks in advance.

Warm Regards

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to share a printer connected to windows98 m/c.
I am using cups to manage printing from GNU/Linux box.
The printer is an Epson dot matrix 24 pin series printer.
on the windows98 m/c printer is shared(no authentication required)
and is visible in the Network Neighbour Hood as shared.
In cups I tried few settings but results have not been
encouraging at all.
Setting 1
Deviece URI : smb://1.2.3.4:80/printer_name
Driver selected was Epson 24 series.
But after these settings I get error saying "Connection failed
with error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFULL"
The log level setting for cups is at debug2 but the error log
also shows the same statement nothing more.
Setting 2
Device URI : ipp://1.2.3.4/printer_name
or
Device URI : http://1.2.3.4/printer_name
Driver was the same as in above case.
After doing this setting I get an error saying "host 1.2.3.4 is
busy or is down will retry in 30 seconds."
and then the same line is also present in the error log.
Printing to the same printer is posible from another windows machine.
but cups is having trouble.
Suggestions anybody.
Thanks in Advance

PS: Chetan Vaity, an MTech student from KReSIT who's also on this

files in the hard disk... I don't need to store those
log files in permanent memory (i.e. in disk), i can
afford to loose after the system is switched off....
So i want to know how store these access log files and
error log files in some temporary storage area.... can
any one tell me how can i do it.........

Hi!
Has anyone here ried using xawtv on a bt878/848 chipset. (Im not too sue
which one it is coz everytime i go hunting to get it working ... Theres
always something else pushing me back to win).
Basically, if i boot to win, start pixelview, and then reboot (WITHOUT
SHUTTING DOWN) back into linux, i can get some kinda reception. Until then I
just cant get ANYTHING!
Also, somehow I find the audio lower on linux as compared to xp. But then i
find it equal to that of 98. Is there any known plugin that can be utilised
to gain audio ?
