This appears to be a common problem with Dell laptops.  it is the same on my
i2650 and is due apparently to a bug in the Dell bios.  The laptop works fine
though, you just cannot see the battery level.

Randy,

I would be interested to hear how you use the RR dial-up with linux.

TIA,

Hello all,

I recently decided to attempt to use my Linksys wireless card on my
latitude. I've read all the sites and gor the info I need, but can
someone point me in the direction of some documentation, that
explains how to configure the kernel. I've got bits and pieces , but
I really would like something a bit more detailed.

Thanks,
Sean

This is a really dumb question, but....

In previous releases of RH and KDE, KDE plays a little tune at the end
of its startup.  My stock installation of RH8 on an I8200 does not
seem to do so, though I believe audio is working correctly.

Can anyone tell me whether I should expect the startup sequence to
make noise?  Thanks.

I'm skeptical of all this. I've been using NVIDIA for almost two years,
and I've never been required to insert NVdriver before I startx. In fact
inserting NVdriver is part of startx.

I believe the problem is somewhere else, but I'll confess I don't know
where.

You'll need the pcmcia-cs package. Get it either from your distribution
archives or from sourceforge.

When you configure your kernel disable PCMCIA support. That's right,
disable it. If you don't, pcmcia-cs will not build driver modules.

In the Network Devices section, enable Wireless LAN but don't choose any
devices.

Build and install your kernel, and reboot to it.

Go to /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs and do what the docs say about
configuring and installing. I can't remember if it's "make configure &&
make install" or "./configure && make install".

Kevin

I figured out how to get to other mail servers than Earthlink - we had to do this at work so our mobile users could connect. Unfortunately we had to use Outlook's settings to do this. I'll try to remember what we did, as it could be useful to someone else :)

Telocity, and Earthlink.

Telocity is outof business

if you go with roadrunner and they offer roaming dial

Try putting this in your /etc/modules.conf

alias char-major-195 nvidia

That should fix it hopefully.

Phil

Are you using LILO or grub for your boot loader? /etc/lilo.conf should have numerous commented-out lines of resolutions along with their descriptions. Try switching from vga=normal to vga=771 ( I THINK!!! ) which would give you a 1024x768x32 console. Note that you'll have to reinstall lilo if this is the case (just run 'lilo' as root)

If you're using grub, I have no idea. :/ I use Slackware, which doesn't support grub, and that's just fine by me :)

There are two parts of the nvidia driver. One is the kernel module, which needs to be loaded before startx. The second is the X driver which is loaded in your XF86Config file.

Under slackware (which doesn't help much if you're using a different distro which basically sets everything up for you), you would add "/usr/sbin/modprobe nvidia" (I believe that's the path to modprobe...? not on a linux machine at the moment)

Probably doesn't help you too much though, sorry :(

The NVIDIA kernel module does NOT need to be loaded before startx. That
was the whole point of my message.

I just verified this by leaving the X environment and removing NVdriver
with rmmod. Then I did "startx" and it came up just fine.

Once again, NVdriver does NOT need to be loaded before starting X. If X
is properly configured loading the driver is part of starting X.

Kevin

I believe the Truemobile uses the Orinoco chipset but I'm not sure which
firmware revision it has.  You will have to patch the driver to enable monitor
mode.  You can find a link to the patch at the airsnort page.  I had problems
with the patch/airsnort when the PC card I was using had firmware other than
7.52.

Hi
This is my first post on the group and I would like to say hello to
everybody. My laptop (rh 8.0 ) uses a wireless connection. The wireless
works just fine. I login and then plug in the pcmcia wireless card and
the computer activates the wireless and gets its ip using dhcp.
Problem is this causes X to start denying permission to connect to 0:0
and I can't open another window.
All I can do then is restart X.
So I guess dhcp must be done before X starts. But I would like to know
if there is a way to teach X the new ip information without restarting ?

Somebody posted a XF86config for this in the files section.

Unfortunately there is no reliable GUI (or ncurses) that I've evaluated
yet for configuring multihead other than Matrox's own config program.

Good luck!

This is not entirely true. startx does not use insmod or modprobe; it
makes a request to the kernel module loader. If NVdriver is not loaded
at startup (which is perfectly acceptable and has no ill effects) then
it will look for the character device 195. If you're running the nvidia
driver 3123 or less, the line to add to modules.conf is

alias char-major-195 NVdriver

If you're using > 3123, use

alias char-major-195 nvidia

just like Mr. Trickett stated.

But loading the module at startup is not really a problem, in my opinion.

What part of what I said do you believe to be wrong?

I said loading NVdriver is part of startx. I said you don't need to load
NVdriver before doing startx.

Both of these are repeatably, verifiably correct.

What you said about char-major is true but I didn't address that.

Hi, all

I installed nvidia-driver 1.0-4349 today. Everything works fine,

Dano,

Have you noticed if the new nVidia driver causes visible flickering of your
screen after you've used Fn + D to blank the screen and have then unblanked
the screen ?

Thanks, John

It does cause flickering lines on the left of my screen until I switch
to a console and then back. (Like previous drivers)

No idea about the DPMS either, sorry!

Somebody posted a XF86config for this in the files section.

Unfortunately there is no reliable GUI (or ncurses) that I've evaluated
yet for configuring multihead other than Matrox's own config program.

Good luck!

I just had to smile.  Your reply appears to be indicative of a lot of
people's situation here in Yahoo Groups.  I'm sure almost everyone
uses it as a simple mailing list almost all the time, but there are
searchable archives, files, etc. that everyone might find useful.
Anyway, here are the files:

Good luck!

I have a dual boot system with SUSE 8.  When I try to pull up the
linux partition it hangs when it gets to Loading PCMCIA Kernel.....

Any suggestions appreciated.

Warm regards,
paul
