USB should be fine, it was designed so that you could just plug something into
it and
be ready to go. However you are not supposed to mess with ps/2 while the
computer
is on... That really doesn't stop me, sometimes nothing happens, sometimes the
machine reboots...

I'm a little curious as to under exactly what circumstances a reboot
is actually necessary. I know a reboot is necessary to load a new
kernel and that the power inside the box must be off to install or
remove internal hardware --- are there any other times when a reboot
is not optional?

First go to single user mode. It is probably not necessary but won't

Howdy all,
I have decided that I need more room for my Slink system... my 1GB linux
partition that stores my entire system is now over 80% full... I was
thinking of using another empty 1GB partition (/dev/hdb1 - currently
mounted as /linux2a) for /usr. My thinking is:
1. as root, cp -r -p /usr /l
I think the _right_ fix is asking your admins to add hostnames to their
dhcp config files... as for what you can do, well... could you run a cron
script every five minutes, or everyminute?

I am frustrated with trying to use dhcpcd... after it hooks up with our
network, my machine becomes UNKNOWN_27 instead of kvaughan. The hostname is
correctly set up if I keep dhcpcd from starting up. Can someone tell me how
to fix this? I've even tried using HOSTNAME='cat /etc/hostname' in the

Hi all!
I have Debian 2.1 running with the default 2.0.36 kernel. iBCS for 2.0.36
isn't available as a *.deb so I Debinized an iBCS Redhat RPM and installed
it. After moving things around to the proper directories,
modprobe iBCS
seems to work as far as I and lsmod know. However, trying to run _pro

Better yet, modify the /usr/bin/mc script

Greetings All,
I have been trying to get some of my old Token Ring cards to
work with Linux, but I can't get the Kernal to recognize the
card.
I've searched everywhere I could think of, looking for a linux
driver, to no avail.
Any suggestions or advice are welcome.
