OKIOFFICE 84
by Jamie French 24 May '02

24 May '02

Hi Guys, Well I have finally ditched XP and replaced with SuSe 7.3. One problem I am having is with an OKIOFFICE 84 printer. I can't find the printing languages it supports thus I can not get it working. I just wondered if anyone else out there has experience of OKI printers or some pointers. As we speak I am reading through O'Reilly Running Linux, though I better do some work :) Take Care, J

Hi, Has anyone got their Logitech iTouch keys working? I have, except that they only work if xev has the focus. Graa.

Mindterm/ SSH
by Ricardo Campos 24 May '02

24 May '02

OK. I need to give SSH access to my machine to about 10/20 people. They mostly use windows, some use Mac, and some sensible ones use GNU/Linux. Most are not "technically disposed". My basic idea is to use Java for them to do this- there is no xserver on this machine btw. MindTerm springs to mind... however the source code is no longer available. I would accept a BSD or (l)GPL license, however, looking at the freshmeat page:- "the license of the SSH2 package has not been decided and hence the license of MindTerm v1.99 can't be GPL (or anything else for that matter) until this is decided. The license will be decided before the end of this year, until then the v1.99 will be a demo with a restricted license and no source code will be made available. All code up to and including v1.2.1 is and will of course be GPL." ( http://freshmeat.net/projects/mindterm/?topic_id=913 ) All source code and previous versions have been removed. However, MacSSH is SSH2 only, and has been released under GPL: http://pro.wanadoo.fr/chombier/ I would like advice on this subject. Should I just implement SSH v1 and thus be able to go via the Java route, or should I wait for a Java SSH2 client. Hmm. I'm a little confused. -- Get your free email from www.linuxmail.org Powered by Outblaze

Maybe it would be worth looking at that as I assume the code for that is GPL along with the rest of webmin.

mmap() question
by Paul 23 May '02

23 May '02

Hi Folks playing around with a PCI IO card that has four seperate blocks of registers on board. One block is mapped to IO space and can be read without any trouble. The remaining blocks are all mapped to memory with the mmap kernel call. Now for the problem - If I try to read from a nonexistant register, the computer locks up completely. Although I have some data on the card, there is holes in the register map for optional plug in modules. Trouble is, I do not know where all these holes are... Question - Is there a nonblocking call that I can use to read from the PCI card without locking up the system ? Regards, Paul.

Btw, this what I normally do on most machines $ apt-get update $ apt-get upgrade then $ apt-get dist-upgrade Works for me 100% all the time for some weird reasons. I must been doing something right...
