Re: Is there any PGP Drive Equivalent for Linux ?

Has anyone implemented this on the 2.4 kernel? The HOWTO speaks of a kernel patch under 2.2. I saw a Suse release (7.0 I think) that supported the encrypted file system, and I also would like to know how to do it under RH (7.3). JT Todd A. Jacobs wrote: > On Fri, 11 Oct 2002, senthil wrote

Compiling kernel - need to mkinitrd or not?

I'm compiling the kernel under RH 7.3 I get a freeze after the "freeing kernel memory..." message, just before init is supposed to sign on. One poster suggested this is because of an incorrect cpu setting, but I've checked this. I've carefully followed the instructions in the kernel HOWTO.

Re: Kernel upgrade problem

Is this what causes a hang on booting a new kernel when "Freeing unused kernel memory..." appears, then init doesn't load (or execute)? I have that problem on attempting a kernal compile under RH 7.3. There are no errors about mounting ext3. John Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]

New kernel loads then freezes

I have newly-compiled kernel under RH 7.3. I used "make bzdisk" and wrote it to a floppy. Booting from the floppy goes fine until... after the line "Freeing unused kernel memory..." Then the boot process freezes. The only changes I made from the stock kernel were: (1) remove NFS support, (2

Re: xv

RH 7.3 does come with an icon for xv; I'm using it under KDE. I'm not at that machine now, so I don't recall exactly where the icons are or how you set one under Gnome. A find on xv.xpm will probably turn it up. JT Hong Tian wrote: > Hi, > > On RedHat 7.3/Gnome, after installing "xv" by # r

Do CD backups preserve directory structures

I'm running RH 7.3 with KDE. I want to set up a backup procedure on my CD writer. I'm using the KonCD front end that came with the install. If I try to copy both /home/jathomas/ and /root/ to the CD, I get an error that I have a file of the same name in /home/jathomas/.kde/ and in /root/.kde

Also, try the linux-dell-laptops group on Yahoo. I'm running RH 7.3 on a Dell Inspriron 8200. No problem with installation, but I have a problem properly representing the screen on an LCD projector. No one here has any information about that. JT On Thu, 19 Sep 2002 16:16:42 -0400 > "Ivet

Different display on LCD projector than on monitor

I'm running RH 7.3 and KDE on a Dell laptop. The screen is set to 1024x768. On the laptop screen or on any connected monitor, I get the same results. However on an LCD projector, the bottom 1/2 inch or so of the screen is wrapped around to the top of the screen. In other respects, all is we

Secure file system in RH 7.3

I'm running RH 7.3. I'd like to implement a secure file system. I recall that a Suse distribution I used supported this via the loopback device. The HOWTO's about this are out-of-date and refer to patching the 2.2 kernel. Does the RH 2.4 kernel support this? Does anyone have pointers to i
