We mostly send and receive text data, but do not know in what format does it send. You can contact me if you want to see it.

module aliases
by Sameer D. Sahasrabuddhe 28 Aug '01

28 Aug '01

This is a message that comes up all over my system logs - Aug 27 19:51:11 trantor5 modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-6 I suspect this is because some alias in /etc/modules.conf is missing ... where do I look for the relevant module name? I am using kernel 2.4.7 compiled on my machine. SameerDS. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

Dynamic signature
by Harshal Patil 27 Aug '01

27 Aug '01

hi, i've seen in many linuxers' mails (specially PHILIP TELLIS) that the signature changes with every email. how do you manage to do that??? i use evolution & netscape 6.1 (yeah...both of them crash a lot :)) in which you have to specify which signature file to use. my first guess is that to write a small "c" program which will overwrite say, "signature.txt" every min. with the help of cron. this program will take input from a small database of signatures. any hints/ideas?. thanks you. -- Registered GNU/Linux User #188850

Hi All, Sorry for being OT. I recently saw some aggressive marketting of Powersurfer Broadband Internet connection in Kandivli (W). If anyone is using such connection from powersurfer, then plz let me know how are the services. Also plz let me know if it is possible to connect to the net on the Linux box also. They told me that there shud a LAN card on yr m/c. Now which LAN card shud I purchase keeping in mind the compatibility in Linux? TIA, Warm Regards, $ sonpal -kj
