pausing

I have 3 machines that are Intel Pentium 2 machines, one is a dual processor and the others are not. However these machines have a real annoying pause, it lasts from 2- 15 seconds and happens quite a bit. This is real annoying, anyone know what could be causing this ? The dual has it the worst

Soundblaster and the kernel

Thanks for all the help, I did recompile the kernel and made the modules. however I ran into a little problem, cc1 was not found in the path. I manually added it to the path (strange that it was not in the path). I noticed that there are 2 places to define modules /etc/conf.modules and /etc/modu

What is the proper way

I was about to recompile the kernel to add support for the soundblaster 16 and wondered should I remove any modules and rebuild them even though I am only adding one module ? Can I run make modules only ? Or do I have to do make dep;make clean;make zImage;make modules;make modules_install ? Adv

If you type ping -c 5 www.microsoft.com how long does it take before you see the first line ? This almost sounds like a DNS timeout. --Jeff (just a guess) On Wed, 16 Apr 1997, Brian C. White wrote: > > > The latest mime-support (2.12) will work much better with lynx since > > > it tries to

The comments about having to run configure over and over, does this apply to the cdrom as well ? I have a T! at work, so if there is another way to install that would be better let me know. --Jeff On Sat, 12 Apr 1997, Rick wrote: > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > > Sorry. I should have

Re: "dselect" replacement project ("deity")

Ok here goes, I looked at the list of stuff available for debian and I thought I knew a thing or too about Linux until I ordered this debian cdrom. I run an ISP and a Linux user group. However I just cannot seem to get debian's dselect correctly. I get through the conflict resolution and the

Re: What is the typical response from i-Connect?

I ordered the cdrom from cheapbytes and I made the disks and installed the floppies (this is kinda dumb, why not install off of the cdrom?) but I have not figured out how to get dselect to work. So at this point all I got off of the cd is the disks. Is this normal ? If I must use dpkg, where ca
