Hi all,
I have loaded the winXp SP2 and RHEL WS 4.0 dual booting using grub, problem is booting to linux takes 15-20 minutes. Booting to WinXP and coming out of linux is fast. motherboard is 915 GAV.
I would like to know whether this is normal for RHEL WS 4.0 booting or there is some problem. If so kindly help me out.
Cheers,
Amit Das.
Hello All,
This is a note on setting up the Epson LX300 dot matrix printer in FC4.
On the top task bar panel, go to Desktop > System Settings > Printing.
Here add your printer and for the driver, select 'Generic'. In its sub
list, select 'ESC/P Dot Matrix Printer'. On the rightside, there is a
small drop down list of 'Available Drivers'. Select 'eps9high'. In the
next tab called 'Driver Options' set your page size and for
resolution, select '240x216'. Select OK, apply your new settings and
your lx300 is ready to print even better quality print outs as compared
to windows. :)
Regards,
Rony.

I have the DSL399 conn via ethernet.
I am running Ubuntu 5.04.
I have trouble configuring the connection.
The problem is that once upon a time i had used a modem and Ubuntu still
considers the modem as the default and does not remember the settings
for the ethernet conn.
I have configured & activated the ethernet conn umpteen times and
disabled the modem conn as many times.
Pl help.
Because of this I have to use XP instead of practising shell scripts (I
am 2 mths old int the world of Linux and loving it).
Regards,
Mohan S N
P.S.: The MTNL tech support is of no avail as the troll who services my
area cannot tell between internet and ethernet . He is lost searching
for 'ethernet explorer' if I delete the dsk shortcut to IE.

If you set it to dhcp and there is nothing connected, it may wait to find a dhcp server or you got a lan active and its not setup for linux???? Turn sendmail service off too. It is not needed. Find out the exact device/program where it takes time to load during bootup. If its not needed, get it off.

As soon as it starts to boot the following reasons could lead to consume time...
1) It tries to configure LAN card through DHCP.
2) Hostname issue, Sendmail is confused between "/etc/hosts" and "/etc/sysconfig/network" where normally we define hostname.
3) swap space partition.
the thing is while booting you will get a GUI screen and would'nt know what actually consuming time behind the screen, so do "CTRL+F1" and you will see, the services.
hope this this will help.

Hello Everyone,
MTNL has suddenly decided to do away with new subscriptions for the
"Telephone for Internet" scheme where it charged a flat fee of Rs. 500/-
per month for all calls unlimitted to any dialup ISP. The existing
customers, that includes me, of this scheme are being told to 'kindly
get lost' by increasing the monthly tarrifs from 500/- to 1000/- for
Scheme A and 700/- to 1400/- for Scheme B. They are killing the dialup
and dialup ISPs and are trying to push Triband down our throats. The
triband is not viable for me as my usage is above 250 mb and I would
require to shell out atleast 500/- + 250/- = 750/- every month and that
too would be a limit of 400 MB. R-Connect gives me 1 GB for Rs 650/-.
I want to break MTNL's linux monopoly by using my newly acquired
Reliance LSP350R for net usage in Linux. The Mandrake 10.1 does not
mount it, although it detects it, inspite of all commands tried from the
internet. The FC4 distro can detect it automatically and mounts it on
/ttyACM0. The problem is that I am not able to get it talking in KPPP.
I tried the initialising string as it exists in the windows. I don't
know what should be the 'Flow Control' option Hardware/Software/None and
the Line Termination CR/LF/Both.
Has anyone successfully used this new model LSP350R for r-connect in
linux. If so, please help me by giving me the detailed settings for the
same. From 1st November the new tarrifs will be applicable so by then I
have to make the necessary crossover.
Regards,
Rony.

Hello All,
I have this process which runs a child and sleeps for 5 mins and then cleans child(zombie) and prints its exit status.
Sometimes child exits early and I can not wait 5 mins for parent to print status (and I can not modify parent code). So is there a way to find the exit status of a child zombie process from proc or ps or any other way? Proc has file called status but I couldnt find if it shows exit code somewhere, can anyone help?
Google doesnt help much.
Thanks in advance.
Amish.

Morning Fellas,
My fiance while cleaning her place just found out
that among the junk(tons of it..:D) at her place we
had a Commodore 64. I was surprised to see the same
with a load of cassettes(games+educational) and basic
programming books plus tons of other educational
material. The kit was used just twice with most of the
cartons and game kits still not opened since its
purchase in 79.
This is mostly nostalgic and i understand that there
would be collectors on this list who may want to lay
their hands on this kit. Any geek who wants it can
have it.
Its free for you to grab. Please write in to me off
this mailing list.
Trevor
