I'm sorry but my information was incorrect, I have checked and it is possible to specify modelines in the XF86Config BTW.

Configuration Prob. in DHCP
by Desai Ashish 24 Dec '01

24 Dec '01

Dear Luggers, Hi...2 all..... I m facing a problem for configuring 2 NIC for sharing my Internet Connection. Plz. find the complete problembelow. I m having 2 Machines. On one I m having Direct Cable Internet Connection...i.e. on Ethernet Technology. And that machine is having Linux 7.1 with Squid configured properly. I want to share that on 2-3 machines. All other machines having Win98. I want to set up its TCP/IP Configuration as Using DHCP Server and I want to make my first PC as DHCP Server for my Internal Network. For that matter I edited the file /etc/dhcpd.conf Its contents is as follows in /etc/dhcpd.conf subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.10; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255; option routers 192.168.0.1; } subnet 202.131.99.81 netmask 255.255.255.0 { option broadcast-address 202.131.99.255; option routers 202.131.99.81; } And then I restart DHCP Service using "dhcpd -f" command. Then it has given me error as follows. Listening on Socket /etc/192.168.0.0 Sending on Socket /etc/192.168.0.0 No subnet declaration for eth0 (202.131.99.81) Please write a subnet declaration in your dhcpd.conf file for the network segment to which interface eth0 is attched. exiting. My Internet Service Provider has provided us some fixed IPs...I would like to mentioned that I already started Squid for Netsharing. After that I've provided all the machines IP address manually. And I can be able to browse the websites. But I want to make my Linux machine as DHCP server for my Internetwork. So, in above situation where the defect amy be left by me...???? Plz. suggese me some solution for that. Regards, [Ashish Desai] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send your FREE holiday greetings online! http://greetings.yahoo.com

> AFAIK It is disallowed First enable XAA, specify that you have only 4MB on your videocard Turn on turboqueue and fast_vram and force the dacspeed to 175 you should see a marked improvement in the cards performance. If you are still having problems use XAAnopixmapcache option it worked for me. I will mail you the XF86Config file >With X3.3.6 after tweaking modelines, I had a res of 1280x1024 24bpp with >SIS6326 and samtel monitor.

Bad major or minor number
by J. T. D'souza 24 Dec '01

24 Dec '01

Distro RH6.2 (zoot i think) Mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /win results in unable to mount /dev/hda1 bad major or minor number ls -l /dev/hda shows major as 3 and minor as 0 (3, 1 in case of hda1) which afaik is correct. This is a 17gb disk on a machine with bios which can read only 8 gb. Exceept for the above problem linux occupying the upper 8gb works happily. I wanted to move some stuff from the ext3 partitions on to the vfat partitions before installing woody. jtdesouza(a)yahoo.com _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Seems that the VM change in 2.4.10 and later is the cause of problems related to ext3. Read on. http://linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=5676 jtdesouza(a)yahoo.com _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
