<0> if modprobe works for him, he'll have network
<0> he might also be on dualboot
<1> What version of mysql client do we have with fc5?
<2> wooooooops sorry
<1> Are the client files of version 5.x?
<3> im back
<4> wb Elbrujo
<0> and?
<4> in Linux i hope?
<3> i put modprobe e100
<0> and?
<3> and gon to the next line
<3> an do noting
<0> ok
<0> sounds good so far
<0> are you on dualboot?
<3> yes
<3> im in kannopix now, here the card work fine
<3> can i copy the diver from here?
<5> no
<0> ok, just sec
<3> ok
<6> anybody running windowmaker with FC5? not problems with dbus?
<0> ok
<6> s/not/no
<0> are you on dualboot?
<0> no Elbrujo, you can't copy drivers from here
<5> he's on a knoppix live cd it appears
<0> opsec: I can read
<5> apparently not --> <0> are you on dualboot?
<7> geez
<3> yea im in a knoppix cd live
<0> opsec: it works automatically on knoppix, but he's tyring to fix his fedora
<5> either way, he's yours.. i don't have the patience for this nonsense
<0> ok, Elbrujo: here's what you need to do to your linux, put: alias eth0 e100 in your /etc/modprobe.conf
<0> that should allow the network card to come up automatically
<8> erm
<8> hey
<8> what the heck is this?
<8> dev24761 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:F4:76:D1:82
<7> a wireless card
<9> This is my first attempt at IRC, can anyone help me?
<8> Southern_Gentlem: not likely...
<8> the machine does not have one
<3> only that
<3> ???????
<0> yes, then reboot the computer in linux
<3> ok
<3> thanks
<0> I'm ***uming from what you've said you're either dualbooting between windows and linux or linux is on another system
<0> right?
<3> dual boot
<0> right
<9> I am trying to install fedora using the dvd disk? When it asks for install location do I say ftp or disk?
<0> ok, so put: alias eth0 e100
<0> into /etc/modprobe.conf
<0> then reboot
<3> ok
<0> see if it comes up properly
<3> bye
<9> can you help me Corwyn?
<0> I'll try, let me scroll back
<0> are you booting from the DVD?
<9> Yes
<10> gday Southern_Gentlem
<0> hmmm, if you're installing from the dvd and booting from it you should be using the defaults for the locations to install from
<9> When I say disk it says I need to insert the fedora disk
<7> acronos, you have a bad burn on the dvd, retry at a slower speed
<0> that's what it sounds like to me too
<7> hello linuxaddicts
<0> try reburning your dvd at a set slower speed
<9> Ok. Thanks.
<0> thanks SG :)
<7> acronos, also did you check the checksum of the iso
<9> Just to check. As long as I get the correct sha1sum the file is correct right?
<7> nope
<9> yes. I ran sha1sum and it matched
<7> ok good then reburn at a slower speed
<9> Thanks again souther_gentlem and corwyn
<9> Bye
<0> :)
<11> whats the last stable version for FC5 ?
<5> you just answered your own question
<12> has anybody succeeded installing jalbum under fc5? I just get loads of errors
<8> lol
<11> sorry, talking about kernel
<5> 2111
<11> whats the last stable version of the kernel for FC5 ?
<0> 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5
<5> Linux trango 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5
<11> Corwyn, how can I know if that kernel includes drivers for VIA VT8251 Southbridge?
<0> Toerkeium: I'll be honest with you, that I can't answer, perhaps someone else has an answer for that one
<11> thanks Corwyn
<11> I am 3 days trying to find a distro for my server
<11> it's killing me
<11> seems that chipset is too new
<13> Toerkeium:whats the issue?
<0> that's very possible
<5> if you are looking for a server distro .. i recommend centOS or RHEL
<5> fedora lifecycle is far too short for a server
<11> puneet_batura, it doesn't recognizes my sata drives and nic, among other things
<0> <11> Corwyn, how can I know if that kernel includes drivers for VIA VT8251 Southbridge?
<14> opsec, I was just going to recomend CentOS.
<7> Toerkeium, what sata controller
<11> opsec, centos isn't supporting that chipset right now
<11> VT8251 southbridge is the problem
<11> been on the viaarena web site (via website forum) but there is no simple solution
<13> Toerkeium:which distro r u on?
<11> well.. I actualy tried CentOS, FC1,2,3,4,5
<11> heh
<13> ah...ok
<7> Toerkeium, is thiere a linux driver for the chipset
<11> the only "who" recognized was windows 2003 server
<11> can you belive it ?
<15> yes. windows is the king of hardware support
<15> try typing linux via vt8251 into google
<11> Southern_Gentlem: there seems to be patches, and other "non standard" solutions like installing the OS on a PATA drive, patching the kernel and then moving the installation to the sata drive, but I don't have the experience to do such things
<14> Toerkeium, Actually, yes, I can. haha
<11> I am doing it since 3 days sixy
<7> Toerkeium, hardware venders test vs windows
<11> and from other side, I would like to install it with a normal procedure, I don't trust too much when it's not a normal procedure for installs
<15> are the sata drives on a southbridge controller or a separate controller (e.g. highpoint, promise etc) on the motherboard?
<11> in the onboard controller (vt8251 southbridge)
<15> right. in that case, do you have any spare pata slots?
<11> I supouse that in the southbrige also are the NIC and USB, because none of them are recognized
<16> any ***istance would be appreciated
<11> yes I have two PATA slots
<15> well a simple fix for the hdd is to get a sata to pata converter
<16> I can't yum update, 90 percent of the packages are missing from the database .. I have NO clue how it happened
<11> but I will be in hell again with NIC and USB
<11> where USB is not that important, but NIC is
<16> the computer was sitting there logged out but on, all night
<11> and even if I plug a external NIC to the PCI slot, isnt recognized
<16> and was definitely working fine yesterday
<15> but to be honest it sounds as if support for that motherboard just hasnt got to linux yet - its either a case of pci NIC/USB cards or a new mb or waiting for support for that chip
<17> Toerkeium: it seems like mainline support is getting closer from looking at various kernel related postings
<15> a pci nic costs very litle nowadays - even a decent 3com one can be got for not a lot
<11> yeah, but PCI slots seems to have the same problem
<11> if I plug a PCI NIC, it isn't recognized
<11> seems that PCI slots are handled by the southbridge
<15> yeah they are
<11> so I guess I have the options described by you
<11> I think I will try to change the MB for an older model
<15> if even the pci slots dont work then i suspect you will get nowhere fast with thtat motherborad untill the chip gets linux drivers
<11> checking ...
<15> I would strongly advise not using via chipsets with linux - the poor handling of the pci bus can cause all sorts of issues
