  1. you have the star picture? need it as a bmp I think.. the rest is not to hard..
  2. A- Do you mean new version of grub FC4 OS ? B- Do you mean FC4 grub can not recognize new Solaris UFS (note that FC4 grub has recognized Solaris V10 as I mentioned in point 1) This is what I did for both Solaris (the one that supports GRUB, and the one that does not support GRUB), it worked with one that has not got GRUB, and it did not work with one that has GRUB. I hope I have explained it well and with details. its clear.. you installed the new solaris 10, it cahnged the ufs partition that grub on any linux can not read, or chain load since it can not read it. Sun screwed you.. hence we
  3. I would install linux first and then solaris 10. some Linux distros do not have the correct grub (newest to handle the solaris 10 UFS ) once you install linux copy its grub conf file.. install solaris 10 and have it install its grub on the mbr, edit the grub config under /boot/grub make sure you have kernel commands kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot or elese it will not look for other options..
  4. ok I am creating a calculator, and I want the decmial point to only be applyed if it is not been done already. here is my funtion. private void buttonDecimal_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (decmialOn != true) { if (outPutBox.Text == "0") outPutBox.Text = "0."; else outPutBox.Text = outPutBox.Text + "."; } else decmialOn = true; outPutBox.Text = outPutBox.Text; } for information.. the outPutBox is my renamig of textBox (I think I will change it to calcDisplay but have not decided.. I am horrable at creating varable names. also decmialOn is decl
  5. it depends.. what is the resolution of the TV (DVI would sugest its HD, so 1900x1080 onthe high end, and 1280x720(?? if I remember correctly), then you have interlaced or non-interlaced, DLP, Plasma and lcd are non-interlaced but CRT TV's are interlaced.. here is a artical that may help.. http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/mythhd.php or http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xorg_HDTV its really not the diffrence on DVI and VGA, Its the TV and how it wants it's digital signal insted of the analog signal (vga or svideo ) for nvidia cards you just put Option TVStandard "HD720p" in the Device configuration...

  6. you get just the sources.. the modules are apart of the source.. things you sould do.. one your kernel is under /boot look in there and see what files are there.. one should be System.map and the kernel will be somehting like vmlinuz.. if you don't see that post a ls of the /boot folder and we will tell you.. so you can back them up. when the kernel sources are installed it is linked to /usr/src/linux to configure your kernel one of two commands.. make menuconfig or if you what a gui make xconfig things you should look at under /boot/grub should be grub.conf, this is your boot file..

    Help!

    I do not think a usb adapter would even make a difference. If it was a usb mouse i may have thought the problem would be a usb module not getting loaded; that is not the case. I am not sure how much control the Deskop enviroment(kde, gnome) has over the mouse, but you may want to see if a different one works(it might give you ideas). truly I would look at the DSL xorg.conf file and not anything else.. It may be that the IR is showing up as diffrent buttons, since it sends the same signals to the PS/2 port as a ball mouse wiht two buttons/switches.. so DSL must be remapping the buttons.. xorg
  9. I am in the process of learning c# using Mono and Visual Studio.. mono has problems with soem winforms (ok a lot) and I can not stand Glade to build gui so its slow on the mono side.. I found this program to convert my c# apps to java. http://dev.mainsoft.com/Default.aspx?tabid=45 its called Grasshopper.. it looks intresting.. any thoughts?

    Does the mouse work properly on another system? The optical beam going out is puzzling, could be faulty hardware. I would try all the different devices under /dev/input as well as /dev/mouse and /dev/psaux if they exist, I would also try Option "Protocol" "auto" yes, I'm using it right now on Windows. no issues. The only time it doesn't work is with Linux. This is a new GE optical mouse. Been using the old ball mouse for the last 7 or 8 months, but got tired of having to continuously clean that stupid things ball, and rollers. /dev/psaux doesn't exist in my dev file. I'll try that and jcl

    try this.. replace /dev/input/mice in xorg.conf with /dev/input/mouse0 *note this may not do anything if mice is a softlink (think shortcut but at the file system level) to mouse0 ** do jcl's sugestion also.. out put should look something like this cat /dev/input/mice ▒ÿ▒ÿ▒ÿ▒ü▒÷▒÷▒õ▒ó▒ò▒ó▒ð▒ó▒ò▒ó▒õ▒÷▒ù▒ü▒ý▒þ ( ÿ(ÿ8üÿ▒ô▒ñ▒ê▒ë▒í▒ò▒ú(( ÿ( þ(þ(þ(ý(þ(ü( ý(ý(ÿ(ÿ8þÿ8úÿ▒ù▒ù▒ø▒ú▒(þ(þ(þ(ý(ÿ(þ8þþ8þÿ▒þ▒ÿ8ýþ8ùÿ8ùþ8øÿ▒ø▒÷▒ú▒ü▒ÿ ▒þ▒ü▒÷▒÷▒ÿ8ÿÿ▒þ▒ü▒ü▒ý▒ü▒ý▒þ▒ÿ▒ÿ

    ok to re-cap, you have ubuntu setup with the same ipaddress, gateway and subnet, and broadcast as your windows and it still does not work? hmmmm... I know you have tried a ubuntu cd.. but for giggles.. can you try ot get DSL or puppy and see of they work (still debian but small) if they do, do sudo su lsmod and lets compaire that to what ubuntu loads as modules.. I see it as one of few things things.. iptables (firewall) module (for somereason its loading a wrong module) or gateway,broadcast are incorrect. this is the full ipsetup structure (just incase we missed somthing before) ifconfig e

    Help!

    DHCP should always send out a 255.255.255.255 IP AS that is called an all ones (11111111.11111111.11111111.11111111) meaning all computers on all networks can hear it. when you ran dhcpc /dev/eth0 it looks like you typed wth0, that's what the error said.. but I may be reading it wrong.. hmmm. try this .. boot windows and get all your ip informtaion ipconfig /all boot linux and put it in like so ifconfig eth0 <ipaddress> netmask <netmask> broadcast<broadcast> let me know if that works, or someone look over if I am missing something as I'm on winders right now and can can't c

    Help!

    its does not matter.. yoru rc script just set up dhcp anyways.. what we are going to do is do it manualy while insuring that it is sending a request. mouse problems, I missed that before.... also, where there any software or hardware changes (on your system...)

    Help!

    ok by your dmesg you have a network connection.. now in one windows do a tcpdump -v and in another do dhcpcd /dev/eth0 past the output of tcpdump.. also have you updated drivers? and have you tried to hard set it, and last do you have an old computer (486 or better) around with two nics? if so look up devil linux or monowall and we can build a test to make sure ubuntu is not messed up (I have killed ubuntu many of times, hence I stay with slackware and gentoo..)
  19. php is backend code.. not front end.. there should be no PHP pages.. its sounds like a bad site.

    but it should let Dragon boot. also I did not see naraku show the steps to make grub boot single user.. see this red hat site.. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/R...ing-single.html

    Help!

    if you have time do this.. open a Termianl as root (or sudo what ever ubuntu does) and do tcpdump -v /dev/eth0 then open another teminal and do the dhcpd /dev/eth0 and post the output of the tcpdump... I had this same problem, adn it turned out to be my MAC address. They did not have my MAC in there system.. I guessing that you are dual booting.. so that may not be so.. (I always put a router betwen me and the ISP now.. so they have my routers MAC.. and I server my own DHCP.. using Monowall (using this http://www.soekris.com/net4501.htm board) hope this gives you some ideals..
  23. use your emil clint, set up a pop connection test send, recv mail. then using th software create a imap account (i guess this would be called connections, not accounts) test.. good? the other way (can't remember ports) is to telnet to the ports for each protocal and see if it responds to commands..
