Can somebody tell me what: LC_ALL=C does or means ?

I installed dvd::rip on my ML 10.1 system. When launching in KDE nothing happens (probably busy behind the screen). When I launch from Konsole I get "segmentation fault". Looking for hints I read on a forum that typing in a console : " LC_ALL=C /usr/bindvdrip" solves the problem. I tried and it does !!! However I like to understand why and also how I could correct this permanently. Anyone an idea ? Thanks

As said I have a mother board built-in eth0 card for which I am unable to change the IRQ, so I first disabled the built-in card secondly I added a USB adapter to connect my modem. Since then I can connect. I guess all this came from Bios not allowing enough flexibility. Thanks

Thanks Arctic. I was unable to tweak the bios. It looks the built-in eth0 card is always given an IRQ>15 and in the bios I can only alter the setting for IRQ<16. So I disabled the eth0 card and replaced it by a PCI card same realtek RTL8129 chip. Again the IRQ went above 15. So in fact the eth0 is not up and running because a conflict This is probably due to the fact that I bought a cheap ACER computer bundled with XP with which you only get recovery CDs in case you have a major crash but you do not get any support for the mother board.... So I took my PCI eth card and plugged it into my old computer, the one I assembled myself and on which I can tweak all settings. Of course eth0 was up and running and I got connected problemless. Furthermore an SB PCI 128 that I was unable to run on my Acer (even when disabling the built-in sound card) went back to the "old" computer and was running also. Of course I am now frustrated that I am back on my old computer, but I have learned a lot in the excercise. Any idea how to recover the "new" computer, I guess I will not be able to put it on a LAN anyway?

Thanks, in the graphical tool to configure the computer, eth0 is said to be device 14. So both quotes are coherent (or not ??). But I will try. In the bios set-up I can choose between PCI & RESERVED, I guess I have to take Reserved. By the way Arctic don't tell me you are an average user, you are very helpful to me.

I do not understand what this means, may be you will.

Can you explain what to do when typing " ifconfig eth0 ..." "returns SIOCSIFFLAGS: Function not implemented" Happily I can still connect on Windows.... Thanks

Thank you ! Speedtouch 510 is not a USB modem, it is connected to the Eth 0 realtek built-in card. Eth0 is OK at boot, I think it is working with dhcp as I remember from the installation. I will answer last questions later today. Thanks again.

Hello ! I bought Discovery 10, I was unable to run in graphical mode probably due to GeForce card not supported. (Got around by switching to a downloaded ML10.1) Now: Totally unable to connect to internet ADSL via built-in Realtek RTL 8139 (as Eth0) and a Speedtouch 510. More frustrating is the fact that I ran same installation on a HP notebook with same RTL 8139 built-in and there no problem.... Grateful to get some help (but simple as I am novice)
