Things your monitor should do (depending on manufacturer and model):
(a) Switch on the monitor, don't switch on the computer: the monitor should go into a 'low power mode', usually accompanied by the LED on the front of your monitor changing from green to orange/yellow. When you switch on the PC the monitor should come back from the 'low power mode', the LED will be changing again.
(b) Switch on the monitor, switch on the PC:
(1) your graphics card should display a standard message (make & model)
(2) the bios should be displaying it's POST (=Power On Self Test: memory checking, detecting drives etc..)
If (a) is not occuring, and it is on your other PC, start checking cables. Possible remove the KVR switch.
If (b1) is not occuring, check your graphics card (again), possible switch it with an alternate card.
If (b2) is not occuring, start digging threw those cupboards, shelves etc for the userguide of your motherboard.
If I'm underestimating your tech-knowhow (or overestimating mine) I sincerely apologise.

I guess the subject asks it all, but I am wondering (before I go and code a COBOL module) if conversion of regular ASCII data to COMP-3 is possible on a UNIX environment (AIX 5.1)? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, Dave (13 Replies)

Hi all,
I am working on USB data monitoring on Fedora Core 9. Kernel 2.6.25 has a built-in module (the one that isn't loadable, but compiles and links statically with the kernel during compilation) to snoop USB data. It is in <kernel_source_code>/drivers/usb/mon/.

linux-version
LINUX-VERSION(1) General Commands Manual LINUX-VERSION(1)
NAME
linux-version - operate on Linux kernel version strings
SYNOPSIS
linux-version compare VERSION1 OP VERSION2
linux-version sort [--reverse] [VERSION1 VERSION2 ...]
linux-version list [--paths]
DESCRIPTION
linux-version operates on Linux kernel version strings as reported by uname -r and used in file and directory names. These version strings
do not follow the same rules as Debian package version strings and should not be compared as such or as arbitrary strings.
compare VERSION1 OP VERSION2
Compare version strings, where OP is a binary operator. linux-version returns success (zero result) if the specified condition is
satisfied, and failure (nonzero result) otherwise. The valid operators are: lt le eq ne ge gt
sort [--reverse] [VERSION1 VERSION2 ...]
Sort the given version strings and print them in order from lowest to highest. If the --reverse option is used, print them in order
from highest to lowest.
If no version strings are given as arguments, the version strings will instead be read from standard input, one per line. They may
be suffixed by arbitrary text after a space, which will be included in the output. This means that, for example:
linux-version list --paths | linux-version sort --reverse
will list the installed versions and corresponding paths in order from highest to lowest version.
list [--paths]
List kernel versions installed in the customary location. If the --paths option, show the corresponding path for each version.
