I saw this once when I installed different sets of GNU freeware from the SGI site. Irix has a version of tar (in /sbin, I believe) that doesn't support the same set of command line options (-z for gzip tars, -j for bzip2 tars) that GNU tar does. I believe I had an incompatible version of glibc...

Thanks, Henrik! Your response was right on target. I did a tune2fs of the partition in question, and it showed that there were fewer free blocks than reserved ones. When I deleted enough files, or moved them to one of the other partitions, such that the free block count dropped below the...

I'm running a configuration of this sort myself: we have an old (PII-266) HP Pavilion that we're using as the firewall, with two NICs installed. The Internet-facing NIC is configured using the IP address from our ISP, and is connected to our DSL modem. The inward-facing NIC is set up using the...

Hi, folks: I'm running RedHat 8 and filled up my root partition. I deleted some files to bring the amount of free space on that partition back up, but now df is reporting the following: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 7925051 7538991...

I've got a collateral question for you: on RedHat 8, my root partition completely filled. I deleted some temp files, but df still reports the following: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 7925051 7538972 0 100% / /dev/hdc1...

Hi, folks: Was wanting to use my Linux workstation as an install image server for several Indys in my home, but can't seem to mount the 'inst'-format media CDs. I've picked up the latest Linux developer's kernel (2.5.42), built in XFS, EFS and SGI partition support, but the format doesn't seem...

That's actually kind of a split question. As far as the MIPS CPU, anything newer (larger in its series number) than the R4000 is (I'm fairly certain, would have to re-check the MIPS docs) a 64-bit capable CPU. MIPS CPUs are also unusual in that they are capable of running in both 'big-endian'...

Stage 2: I found out that you can modify VNC's xstartup to run /var/X11/xdm/Xsession, which kicks off 4Dwm and the user's desktop session. Fine. New problem: anyone know of a clean-room implementation of DGL for non-SGI Unices? Any GL-using applications signal a dgl-not-supported error on the...

Someone else asked about this. I managed to get Gnome running in a VNC server session, viewable on a Linux box. SGI Freeware (http://freeware.sgi.com) has the inst images for Gnome, but not for KDE. It's just a matter of downloading and installing all of the requisite images (let me tell you...

Hi, folks: I'm trying to set up a central (Linux-based) management console for the various machines on my network. I've managed to obtain, install, configure, and operate the VNC server to start both Gnome and TWM sessions on an older Challenge L server that's part of the network. What I...

Yes, actually. I've been able to get it to run (in a VNC session) on my Challenge L box, as a matter of fact. SGI Freeware (http://freeware.sgi.com) has the requisite inst images for all of the Gnome packages, Enlightenment, etc. The only thing I noticed that was kind of funky (so far) was that...

I've installed the VNC package from the SGI freeware site, but I'm having problems finding the server component of the package. The viewer seems to install and run well, but my reason for installing it was so that I can manage my (headless) SGI box from my workstation... Let me know if you come...
