freeradius
by Matt Whiteley
Anyone using freeradius successfully on severn? I'm a real newbie with
it but after configuring it the same as I did on shrike I am having all
requests rejected with:
Thu Aug 21 10:23:17 2003 : Auth: rlm_unix: [matt]: invalid password
Thu Aug 21 10:23:17 2003 : Auth: Login incorrect: [matt] (from client
wlan port 0)
needless to say the password is correct and visible in the debugging
mode.
Any chance freeradius 0.9 will be tested in rawhide soon? I am using
freeradius-0.8.1-7 from rawhide now.
thanks,

redhat-config-securitylevel i386?
by Leonard den Ottolander
Hi,
Is redhat-config-securitylevel really ment to have changed from noarch to
i386? I don't see anything architecture dependent in this package.
By the way, I noticed an entry for redhat-config-securitylevel-tui was not
yet added to bugzilla.
Bye,
Leonard.

wlan-ng packages for severn
by Antti
Has anyone recompiled those rpms? I just upgraded to severn and 'forgot'
that I need wlan, and those old rh 9.0 packages won't work =). I'm using
dlink dwl-650.

Using a USB camera in Severn
by Robert G. (Doc) Savage
Some time back I bought an UltraPort USB camera for my IBM ThinkPad. It
works great with NetMeeting and other apps under W2K, but isn't supported
under XP (another good reason not to upgrade).
Just for giggles and grins, I decided to try it with Severn. Lo and
behold, 'lsusb' sees it as Bus 001 Device 004. "Very cool," I thought,
then "OK, now what?"
Can someone tell me what device in /dev this corresponds to, and suggest a
couple of Severn applications I might be able to use it with?
TIA

Creation of Boot Diskette (not the one used for Linux installation)
by binarywizard
I have a problem that may be really simple, however, I cannot find a
reference anywhere as to how to solve it.
I am running a system were the first physical hard drive is set up with
two 20 GB partitions. The first partition contains Windows 2000 ( from
which I want to migrate during the next few weeks), and on the second
partition I just installed a copy of Red Hat Linux 9.0.93 (Severn).
I chose not to install a boot loader, since I expected the system to
boot directly to Win2K unless I inserted a Linux boot diskette, which I
created during the installation of Linux. Unfortunately, the diskette I
used appears to be defective and Linux is not booting, so I would like
to know, short of reinstalling Linux again, is there a way to recreate
this Linux boot diskette?
I only see a passing reference to it on the downloadable Red Hat
documentation (section 3.30 of the x86 Installation Guide), and no
reference at all in deja.com or elsewhere.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Video card detection and /dev/fb0
by Emmanuel Seyman
I'm running Severn on an old computer which includes a Diamond Stealth 2001
video card (ark2000pv chipset included).
Somebody gave me a Pinnacle TV Card to test and I decided to what Severn
had to say about it.
Kudzu detected on boot and configured everything the way it should be
and scantv gave me an almost perfect .xawtvrc file but I then realized
X wasn't configured.
Running redhat-config-xfree86 gives me the following output:
* ddcprobe returned bogus values:
ID: None
Name: None
HorizSync: None
VertSync: None
* ddcprobe returned bogus values:
ID: None
Name: None
HorizSync: None
VertSync: None
Couldn't start X server, trying with a fresh configuration
Trying with card: Ark Logic ARK2000MT (generic)
Error, cannot start X server.
I then decided to test it using fbtv but I can't seem to make the framebuffer
stick. I boot with the "vga=ask" option and the install starts in the mode
that I chose but the system reverts back to "normal" text when the
"Setting default font" line comes up.
Known issue or simply a case of having the wrond card at the wrong time?

Galeon has been replaced by Epiphany. It uses the Gecko rendering engine just like Galeon did. I don't know if it has all the features you want, but give it a try. Grab the latest from rawhide:
