Still having problems on booting
I get nasty red errors rather than nice green OKs on the following
(modules).
sound
midi
apm
and nsfswc (whatever that is)
on exit I get NFS shutdown failed.
lsmod (as root) gives a single listing "module".
I tried to set up my soundcard using sndconfig. I know I want windows
soundcard (the final option this worked before rebuild-not very well but
thats a seperate post). I get an error when it tests it. I don't think the
IRQs are correct but I can find no way of altering them (they are different
in conf.modules). The keyboard won't allow mw to change them (running in
xterm).
I also cannot mount dev/sdc0 ( the device exists). I get a "kernel cannot
recognise block device- maybe insmod drive" using
mount -t vfat (or msdos) /dev/scd0 /mnt
Logging in su I also got a "Possible stale xauth refcount in file
~/.xauth/refcount/root/hollow/unix:0" -what this all about.
On using kppp as user I got a "kernel has pppd supoort compiled in or via
module" however it works fine I could browse the www using netscape.
On the positive side ppp works in reality and I can print (though not from
SO6 -which is so full of bugs I will almost certainly uninstall it rant
rant).
Could anyone tell me wahat all the above is about (i.e. how to solve it) and
how to mount my scsi cd writer and alter my existing cd (atapi) to scsi
emualation (or do I just tell the cd wrting software its "scsi" and not the
rest of the system.
Ta. Neil.
