graphical file managers (gmc vs. nautilus)

2002-03-03 Thread Angus D Madden
I need to find a good graphical file manager for my family pc. I am aware of two choices: gmc and nautilus. Right now they are using gmc. I like it because it is simple and straightforward. The only problem is that I have not been able to associate mime-types with applications. Say, for exampl

eepro100 with P4 (Gateway E-3600)

2002-03-03 Thread Thedore Knab
I was wondering if anyone has Linux running on a Gateway E-3600. I recompiled the kernel with 2.4.17 and the eepro100. Are there any issues with the eepro100 and and the 2.4.17 ? During downloads, the machine locks up tighter than a clam. This lookup occurs in and out of X, so I don't think it

[SOLUTION] Re: Troubles with SCSI LUNS (IDE CD-RW with SCSI emulation

2002-03-03 Thread Francisco M. Marzoa Alonso
First of all, many thanks to Eduard Bloch. The trouble is that SCSI support is loaded as a module, so I must pass the argument max_scsi_luns to that module instead of using lilo. Steps are: 1) edit /etc/modutils/aliases and add an entry as: options scsi_mod "max_scsi_luns=1" 2) run update-modu

I have 2.4.17 running on a dual P4 machine at work with eepro100 on the motherboard. I also switched back to the 'nvidia' driver rather than the 'nv' because nv had issues with SMP support and kept locking up X at regular intervals. I thought it had to do with SMP, is your machine single proc? -

I'm not digging up a comfortable explanation to this. It looks like TCP_wrappers just restricts usage of TCP access to daemons and doesn't affect packet filtering at all in the kernel, so if I am configuring a firewall with only local access, for instance, I could just leave the hosts.allow file e
