Possible package breakage?
Hi, Looking in the potato packages file, I noticed that bsdmainutils depends on bsdutils(=3.0-0). The version of bsdutils, in potato, is 2.9i-1 and recommends bsdmainutils. Per the packages file, bsdmainutils replaces bsdutils(3.0-0). Is this going to break anything? Thanks, Jim
newbie needs clarification
Hi I want to use ttfonts in Netscape. I've been reading the back posts on this nad need some clarification. One post said to put fontpath Unix/:7101 in the xf86config file. Another said not to do this, put it in .xinitrc. Which is correct? TIA J. Starr p.s. I've looked everywhere I can think of on my system and am unable to find a file named .xinitrc. Where would it be hiding?
More xfstt help needed.
Hi Thanks for all the help given so far, however, after following all advise and puting FontPath unix/:7101 as the last line in my XF86Config file, I tried to run the test, as per the FAQ.gz. I got as far as xfstt but I received the error msg cannot open TCPIP port 7101, better try another port. Isn't 7101 the port X runs on? If so, why wou't it open? Do I need to configure something i've missed? TIA J. Starr
OPL3SAx sound card
Hi Has anyone been able to get this card to work? I've tried every combination in the kernel and the best I've gotten is a series of four tones, each at a higher frequency than the last. If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. TIA Jim Starr p.s. I've read every howto and manual I could find.
