I wrote a message about 4:30pm but it hasn't appeared yet, I must have just clicked replay and not reply all. Anyway gist of it was you can always use Elmswell if you want. Regards, Rob.

Darkest Kent is probably further than I would travel. There may be halls etc in Burwell, if anyone would be willing to travel my way, but they won't be free, so we'd need to know folk were definitely turning up to cover costs. Then again, if you come to Burwell, we may as well set up at my building site/ house, as long as allowances are made for the loud GP racing on telly in the corner of the living room. It's not palacial like Simon's cinema, but I have a kettle :-) The offer is there if we are completely venue-less, anyway, although I wouldn't have deemed it ideal. Jen.

I did have a look at this last night and made some tweaks and fiddles to my fetchmailrc . But: I'm not sure whether or not I need to set up a dns server to make multidrop work? Seems a bit OTT for my humble home mail. ps. How about a meeting somewhere on the 21st April? Thanks, Jen.

I have the ip addresses of the windows computers matched with the computer name in /etc/hosts e.g 192.168.1.101 bascule.jenbass bascule which isn't what I want here - I want fetchmail to know that mail headed to jenny goes to /var/spool/mail/jenny and for rebecca to /var/spool/mail/rebecca, Rebecca then retreives it from bascule when she checks her mail. I'm getting a tad muddled now. Thanks! Jen.

Unresolved symbol iopl
by Paul 09 Apr '02

09 Apr '02

Hi Folks Just started writing a new driver for an on going project - The user space test program works fine (up to a point). It reads and writes to the correct IO ports as expected, but the user interface is a bit naff. Now the fun begins - Converting this thing to a module, I have all the usual header includes (lifted from an existing driver), and have hacked the basic initialization routines. It compiles without any errors which in it's self might be worrying, but when I load the module, I get an unresolved symbol "iopl" - I thought this thing was a requirement before any IO access could take place. Has anyone come across this before ? Regards, Paul.

exim conf request
by Jenny_Hopkins＠toby-churchill.com 09 Apr '02

09 Apr '02

Hi all, I meant to ask on IRC last night (but was too occupied with talking about food and motorbikes)....is there anyone out there who could send me a copy of their exim.config file, so I can try and see where i am going wrong? I'm trying to set up my home network so that my windows-using family go through my linux box for mail as well as web access.....I've now got as far as windows sending the mail to linux box and it being passed on out of the door correctly, but mail coming in for $user(a)trx850.uklinux.net all gets sent to /var/spool/mail/jenny rather than /var/spool/mail/$user. Which would be fine if I want to sit by my box forwarding mail to the correct owner all day after spying on their conversations, but I don't. I did get my web proxy server to do caching last night - it hadn't hitherto worked because i needed to change the owner of the cache directory to web-user. Simple when you know how, *sigh*. Thanks! Jen.

Re: [Alug] new kernel install

Many thanks to all for replies to new kernel question: just back at my desk after ten blissful days away. All seems to have gone well, with lilo happy to give me a choice of kernels to boot into....2.4.18 seems ok so far. Let's see if it cures the "do_try_to_free_pages_update" problem! Cheers, all!
