Hi! Today I switched over to devfs. I'm on Debian unstable, installed devfsd, installed a kernel with devfs support and "devfs mount on boot". Reboot, devfs is being used.

...as on a serial terminal and was incapable of paging up. I'm glad I finally got the terminal up to 38400 b/s though.... Right now, I am probably going to have to re-install, but I am wondering if there is anything I can do in the future to prevent errors like this.

Does anyone know of any Linux-based filesystem that does file-level auditing and logs based on username? Does ext2/3 do such auditing (stock or with patches)? I would like a filesystem that can be told to audit and log file deletions and log the username that deleted the file (similar to auditing on NTFS). I know, I should be using file permissions to prevent this type of deletion from

...that the long lines are actually on two lines, which throws the entire patching process off. Right now, my only recourse is to go through and manually fix the problem, which will take awhile, since there are more than 17000 lines of code!

Hi, I'm looking over the Wine documentation, and it says that the particular version that looks like it will work with my version of RedHat 7.1 will only work if the glibcc is 2.2 or above. How do I tell? I"m a newbie and not sure exactly what the glibcc is. TIA

I can not start my laptop anymore, due to what looks like a physical HD failure.

Hi All, I had to reboot a machine as I lost the ssh connectivity to it. I could ping to it though.

A hardware vendor shipped us a product installed with RedHat 8.0 with all file systems created as ext3. This system has about 800 GB of space which we use for buffering email files (in RFC format). Several weeks into the project and with millions of emails stored, we started seeing "out of inode" (something like that) error messages in the /var/log/messages. Are inodes fixed on ext3

Hi, got a very severe problem. I have two hard drives in my RS server and I am getting the secondary drive removed. Here's the problem. After the secondary drive is removed, the server fails to bootup completely, crashing at fsck. The server boots up fine when the secondary drive is put back in however.

Hi... I am new to Linux (a few days), and I can't get to boot with a new compiled kernel (2.4.17). I wonder if any one has a copy of a successful config file? I get errors with regard to the number of cpu's, ext3, journaling, and others... For now I am (naively) assuming that I have a problem with a combination of settings in the config file.) Regards...
