I am sorry to announce that the previous home of the linux audio
quality HOWTO has proven to be unreliable (to put it mildly).
I sincerely hope that this (fourth!) URL will be permanent.
The new URL is:
http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/quality/
The Audio Quality HOWTO is a long document describing every way I
know of to improve the audio quality of a Linux system, from
software tricks to physical studio setup, including notes on
supported hardware, both cheap and expensive.
If your site has a link to the AQHT, please update it!
Thanks to Benno Senoner for providing the space.

Reply-To: ptb@it.uc3m.es
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Listing kernel compile-time configuration via /proc/config
==========================================================
/proc/config patch (update) for kernel 2.4.0-test1
Proconfig 0.9.5 (Kernel 2.4.0-test1)
Modified original announcement:
--------------------------------
I've released a comprehensive patch to support listing the kernel
compilation options via /proc/config. It's at the addresses below.
This makes kernel image administration easy if you compile a lot of
kernels or admin a lot of machines, as I do. I do believe this is
the definitive version. Try
echo -n 2 > /proc/config # turn it on
echo -n 0 > /proc/config # turn it off
echo -n 1 > /proc/config # turn it "half-on"
cat /proc/config # list it
CONFIG_M586=y
CONFIG_X86_WP_WORKS_OK=y
CONFIG_X86_INVLPG=y
...
The patch configures by default as a tiny kernel rump of 3-5K, plus
a magic module that's now loaded and unloaded automatically when
the internal signatures are first translated to variable names for
display (self-erasing code = cute).
The patch integrates with the kernel Makefiles, so it shows up
conveniently under make menuconfig and friends.
Changes
0.9.5 - Adapted patch for kernel 2.4.0-test1. Fixed tgz omission.
0.9.4 - Self-loading and -removing config_data.
Thanks to Rogier Wolfe and Tigran Aivazian for
help in simulating syscall from userspace within kernel.
Use echo -n "2" now for fully on, "1" for half on. Moved
to kernel 2.2.15.
0.9.3 - following discussions with Michael Chastain
now force scripts/kconfig.tk to be built and then
scan it. Thanks to Werner Almesberger for helpful
notes too. This approach is comprehensive.
0.9.2 - added on/off switch via echo -n "0" >/proc/config
(security and saves about 1K temporarily while off).
integrated CONFIG_* search with kernel mkdep.c
0.9.1 - minor cosmetic buglet fixed.
replaced shell scripts by C programs.
unified 2.3.44 and 2.2.13 config.c code
issued initial patch (0.9) for 2.3.44
Download: ftp://oboe.it.uc3m.es/pub/Programs/proconfig-0.9.5.tgz
Homepage: http://www.it.uc3m.es/~ptb/proconfig/
I've been running two series of patches - 0.8.* for 2.2.* kernels
and 0.9.* for 2.3.* kernels. Now 2.4.0-test1 has arrived and boots
on my machine I'll be treating 0.9.* as stable and current instead.

Subject: zgv 5.1 - svgalib picture viewer with thumbnail-based file selector
Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2000 19:15:27 GMT
Reply-To: russell.marks@ntlworld.com
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
zgv is an svgalib picture viewer with a thumbnail-based file selector.
Most file formats are supported, and the thumbnails used are
compatible with xv, xzgv, and the Gimp. It can also be used with `zgv
file(s)', to effectively bypass the file selector.
zgv's homepage is here:
http://www.svgalib.org/rus/zgv/
You can also, as ever, download it from Metalab:
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/graphics/viewers/svga/zgv-5.1.tar.gz
The main additions in 5.1 are a couple of handy mode-switching
features (which, given the "handy" bit, obviously weren't my idea :-))
and optional xzgv-like keys. There's also a new file covering security
matters.
Here's the changes relative to the previous version (from NEWS):
** New features
You can now switch to a smaller/bigger (lower/higher-res) video mode
in the viewer by using `[' and `]' respectively. Thanks to Michal Svec
for this idea. I'd wanted a saner way to select modes for some time
now, and this approach seems to have been sufficiently obvious that it
never occurred to me. :-)
Added auto-mode-fit mode (enabled by shift-z in viewer, or
`automodefit on' in config file, but disabled by default) which, if
enabled, chooses the `smallest' mode in which the picture can be shown
in its entirety. A bit like zoom mode, but using video modes to do the
work. Thanks to Michal Svec for suggesting this, too. I feel duty
bound to point out that all the mode-switching can be a bit hard on
your monitor, so even if you really like this idea you might not want
to enable it all the time. Still, it's up to you.
Added an `xzgvkeys' mode which changes some keys to match xzgv, as
while xzgv has similar keys to zgv some of them differ - in
particular, the tagging keys in the selector, and the
previous/next/tag-then-next keys in the viewer.
** Bugfixes
Three buffer overrun fixes. See the new `SECURITY' file if you think
this is the end of the world.
Fixed typo which meant that, if you started up in a non-640x480
selector with the mouse enabled, the pointer still started at
(320,240).
File rename used to theoretically allow renaming to `./foo', but
screwed up the test. Made it just refuse anything with `/' in,
formalising the bug. :-)
A couple of corrections to the docs.
** Other changes
A new file `SECURITY' discussing security issues.
Now installs info file/man page in /usr/share/{info,man/man1} by
default, but this is easily changed back to `traditional' locations
(by commenting out the SHARE_INFIX line in the Makefile). Note also
that the binary distribution still uses the old locations by default,
to try and avoid problems.
Now supports raw 16-bit PNMs, as added in netpbm 9.0. Thanks to Bryan
Henderson for pointing out this format.
Added `uninstall' target to Makefile.
Here's the LSM entry:
