Multimedia for Debain Howto |

Debian supports more hardware out-of-the-box than M$.
You have to install a few packages (easy), run a command or 2 and you're in business
You already have a movie/music player installed called Totem (Movie Player) lot

hi @ all,
did you notice any change recently here on the forums ?
one person did (znx) and he noticed that the forums now support a favicon.ico in the url.
well, that is, i was tired of reading the error_logs complaining about not finding same, so i put one in.
anyway, the site is now running twice on two different ips, one is running fcr1 (the laptop) and the other is running fcr4 (desktop).
have you notice any changes ? any difference in speed ?
vote above
cheers

Mounting Samba Share |

Have you wanted to easily mount a Samba share without using the command line? Sacrilege, I know, but the following how-to might be helpful. It does make assumptions that you have a working Samba or Windows server on your local network and that you have a valid username and password for that share. Also, be sure you have administrative rights on your local computer.
Enjoy!

problems with two identical hdd's in fcr4 |
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-09-08, 08:25 PM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 4

hi guys
i installed fedora core release 4 on this box (the one that is currently running linux-noob.com) and during the installation i disabled the 2nd hard disc in the bios as the first time round anaconda crapped out when i had both /dev/hda and /dev/hdb selected....
anyway, the installation is done and seems to be working nicely (the websites running on it now !) but i'm still unsure about the 2nd hdd and my hard disc usage/space
basically there are two 40 gig hdd's, and i would expect df -h to report between 70 and 80 gb of storage... but not so. See below
Quote:[root@www ~]# df -hFilesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup01-LogVol00
36G 7.3G 27G 22% /
/dev/hda1 99M 14M 80M 15% /boot
/dev/shm 189M 0 189M 0% /dev/shm
next thing to check was fdisk -l
see below
Quote:[root@www ~]# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40000000000 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4863 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 14 4863 38957625 8e Linux LVM
Disk /dev/hdb: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4865 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 * 1 4865 39078081 8e Linux LVM
looks like both hdd's are in use doesnt it ?
ok, how about what is mounted...
Quote:[root@www ~]# mount/dev/mapper/VolGroup01-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw)
/dev/proc on /proc type proc (rw)
/dev/sys on /sys type sysfs (rw)
/dev/devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/hda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
/dev/shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)
automount(pid1849) on /misc type autofs (rw,fd=4,pgrp=1849,minproto=2,maxproto=4)
automount(pid1899) on /net type autofs (rw,fd=4,pgrp=1899,minproto=2,maxproto=4)
so, my question is, is the second hdd being used at all, and if so where is the missing 40gb or so of hdd space ?
please advise !
cheers

i then compiled mysql/apache and php and ported the site over via the latest backup file from yesterday.
all seems to be ok, if you notice anything unusual let me know

Suse update issues |

Hello,
anyweb asked that I post an email I sent to him earlier today. The email is shown below.
-------------------Begin paste of email
Dear anyweb,
I recently started playing with linux on an older Dell Laptop. It is a CPI
D266XT. That is an old Pentium II machine
with only 128 Meg of Ram and a 4.3 Gig hard drive.
I had been running W2k on it but I wanted to try linux.
My first attempt at linux was with Fedora Core 4. Fedora Core 4 worked after
quite a bit of tinkering to get the
US Robotics 802.11g wireless card working. I had to install ndiswrapper and
play with the settings a bit.
One thing that Fedora absolutely refused to configure was the Crystal sound
system. It is a CS4237B chip which
should be supported by CS4236. Unfortionately it looks like Kudzu has some
severe bugs when it comes to older
isa plug and play devices like this sound card.
Since I work with Novell servers on a daily basis I decided to try Novell's
Suse Linux and let Fedora "season" a
little.
Suse 9.3 appears to be a pretty good distro. It had support for the wireless
card with the exception that I had to
install the firmware binary file from US Robotics WXP driver download. Once
that was installed the card came
to life. The sound card ended up taking a little trial and error as I found
out there were several chipset files that
might work. I ended up with a slightly older file working better than the
default file.
Everything seemed to be really rosey until I fired up Yast and told it to
update my system. I used the default selections
of Yast in so far as the security updates and the recommended updates. I
watched as Yast downloaded and installed
the updates. After I rebooted my system, however, I found that I no longer
went automatically to the KDE
displaymanager. Instead I was thrown into a simpler and not very pretty
displaymanager. I searched quite a few
websites and forums and found out others had a simular problem after
updating their SUSE 9.3 with Yast.
Your website was the first one that pointed out the easy fix of editing the
/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager file. My file
was also set to xdm instead of kdm. Once I made that change the system
booted up and went directly to KDE
like it used to.
I can only guess the displaymanager file was updated and for some reason the
older default of xdm was used in the
updated file, probably by mistake.
Thanks again for posting your experience with SUSE 9.3 .
Sincerely,
dzimmerm
