Httpup + Proxy
by Jorg.Schulz＠systeam.se 19 Jan '07

Hello I am behind a Proxy Server and hav trouble with httpup and Ports I am a little bit confused about the Httpup and the Proxy I read in http://crux.nu/Main/Faq#ntoc21 I took a look on this , but there Is nothing howto I get my ports and httpup running I create a httpup.conf under /etc with the proxy configuration but it seems not working anyway Thanks for help Best regards /Jörg Mvh Jörg Schulz Senior Konsult Linux/Unix/Novell/Windows/Networking SYSteam Kalmar AB Strömgatan 15 Box 99 S-391 21 Kalmar Direkt 0480-456638 Mobil 0708-157806 E-Post jorg.schulz(a)systeam.se http://www.systeam.se

Printer problems
by Helge Fredriksen 18 Jan '07

18 Jan '07

Hello, I'm trying to set up Cups on my crux 2.2 box for parallel printing to a Canon i550. I was kind of thinking using it as a printserver. I enabled parallel port support in the kernel (built in support for all options to be sure I didn't miss anything). However, I cannot seem to find any /dev/lp stuff or something to hook my printer to the parallel port. I tried /dev/port, but I get this error from CUPS web interface when trying to print a test page: Unable to open parallel port device file "/dev/port": Permission deniedI get this from lpstat: # lpstat -p Canoni550 printer Canoni550 disabled since Wed Jan 17 21:52:26 2007 - /usr/lib/cups/backend/parallel failed # Any ideas?

Japanese input with X
by EckigesAuge 18 Jan '07

18 Jan '07

Hi! I've started learning Japanese and I want to write it on my CRUX box too. Have anyone build packages or modified configuration(s) to get Japanese input working on CRUX? Please help me. I've read a lot about canna and kinput2... but nothing related to CRUX. Else I'll build some packages and create a HowTo. :) Bye, Wolfram. -- Wolfram Gerlach = http://www.wolfram.name = http://www.EckigesAuge.de PGP-Key = 6653CDE5 Wolfram Gerlach <mail(a)wolfram.name> Fingerprint = 0884 2275 C283 47E4 8330 42A4 003A 3795 6653 CDE5

the 8139too is the module name of the RealTek RTL-8129/8130/8139 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter support (NEW) option. Note: in menuconfig you can press "h" to get some more details about an option.The one below the experimental one.I'm kinda new to Linux as well but I think if you want to use modules you should compile all the drivers you want to try as modules then you only have to compile the kernel once. But if you don't mind just try compiling in the 8139too driver into the kernel.-ToshiDate: Wed, 3 Jan 2007 23:58:16 +0100From: helgeingvart(a)gmail.comTo: satowh(a)hotmail.comSubject: Re: Netgear FA-311CC: jgilmour(a)bigpond.net.au; crux(a)lists.crux.nulspci lists in one of it's lines:00:10.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
