Squeeze GNOME Terminal 2.30.2 config
I am not finding the info to do this. I'd like to configure Gnome Terminal to: o- Pass the F1 key through to the program being run. o- Have the terminal launch in 25 lines x 80 columns o- Have the terminal launch in a custom size or zoom setting. I want to do this by some configuration settings, not by mousing around. Thanks for any help, Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

That poster, wje_debianforums, presumably has a 1024x768 screen as 80x25 times a 24x12 font is 960x600. I'm achieving similar results but I guess I'm fussier. The largest font I find is 32x16 which leaves about 20% of the screen unused at the bottom. I find the unused bottom disconcerting because I expect another line rather than scrolling.

I do like framebuffers as it is a smoother, faster switch between VTs and X. Also framebuffers seem to be the Debian way and I maintain enough machines to not want to resist little implementation issues. The threads I've seen on this problem are all murky.

I suspect I'll move to blue-ray discs within a few years before I feel a need for a chunker like cdbackup, but I'm am glad to have the reference.

Help with udev's secret mounts
Udev's secret remounting of /dev at /dev/.static/dev gives me pause. How IS that done, anyway? I am interested in using find and cpio to make a root filesystem backup. How should I handle the /dev tree? If I just grab the run-time /dev it will become the boot-time /dev of my restored system. I don't understand if this has any ramifications or what they are. I can back up my root by booting into another linux, but that is inconvenient. It seems that I could just set udev_root to something like /udev in /etc/udev.conf and that would work. That doesn't appeal because of decades of finger memory for /dev. Thanks.

RE: why /var/tmp/ not be cleaned at boot time
On Mon, 6 Oct 1997, George Bonser wrote: Yeah, so you can have some temporary scratch space that survives a reboot. Anything that can evaporate at reboot time, you put in /tmp, anything you want to survive a reboot, you put in /var/tmp. I would caution against using this idea on any machine you don't control. The purpose of /var/tmp is to unload the possible activity and space requirements from root. Consistent with this I'd assume /var/tmp or any /*/tmp to be purged at boot. If looking for persistent scratch space put a directory in /var/spool. That *nices do not handle this out of the box is not surprising. tmp filesystems and directories and dangling tmp symlinks are all things to be decided by the system administrator.

Mail setup.
On a little ethernet like so: moola.ethernet fin.ethernet coin.ethernet = ppp.isp.net With one POP mailbox on pop.isp.net and nameservers in isp.net. Using smail 3.2 and ppp/diald.

Unidentified subject!
When using pine with diald, pine waits for the link to come up and the mail to go out before returning from a ^X (send) command. Any tips. rob [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
