Re: Bad Superblock
YE Can you recommend a UPS for me? I had TrippLite working for Solaris x86, so it will work with Linux too, I suppose. Best support Linux. APC seems to move towards Linux support too. YE The salesman in office depot showed me Advice UPS and said it will work YE only with win98/nt. I had no success trying to make Linux connect to it. And their support simply doesn't exist.

Re: pgplot/moving Xwindows with keyboard

My problem is with PGPLOT, which throws the image window beyond the left upper boundary of the display. I see most of the image but have no access to its title bar for easy repositioning. I managed to move it using the windows functions of the window manager, but the right ways to do it would be either to modify the relevant line(s) in PGPLOT and recompile it or to learn how to move the windows using the keyboard. Problems are that I don't know where to look for the code to modify in the PGPLOT source files or how to install the key bindings in Xwindows. Any pointers ?

In general, it heavily depends on the windows manager which actions you can bind to keys. Windows placement is also mostly wm dependent.

linux as X server with sparc-solaris client
HI I'm trying to use linux as X server to a sparc-solaris (2.5.1) on the linux i do: X -indirect hostname I get the login screen with Sun's Logo but the text is missing I assume it is a font problem on my linux, so I installed all the fonts from the sparc on the linux box (also updated XF86Config) but that did not do it. btw: on the solaris, there are 'F3' fonts with the extention f3b. what's that any idea ? regards erez. = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: linux as X server with sparc-solaris client
btw: on the solaris, there are 'F3' fonts with the extention f3b. what's that any idea ? F3, as well as Speedo, were the first generation of scalable fonts for X (F3 required a special version of the X server, called "X/NeWS"), in contrast with PCF/SNF/BDF/whatever which are bitmapped. Both (Speedo and F3) are now obsolete, but still supported for backward compatibility. The second generation, of course, is Type1, which is supported in two formats (PFA and PFB). The third generation, bundled with most of the latest UNIXes (and Linuxes), is TTF (TrueType Format). -- Eli Marmor = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Attention, RH Resellers
Hi, There are resellers of RedHat among linux-il subscribers (e.g. PF1, Software Sources, TclTek, etc.), and some of them use (sometimes) trips to bring CDs and packages, and not only a normal shipping. Since the 6.1 package that RH ships for foreign countries lacks many features (not only crypto and 128 bit support, but also Star- Office and so on), and since there is no Israeli law against IMPORT of such stuff into Israel, it can be nice if they could CHECK the possibility of buying the FULL 6.1 packages there, and bringing them into Israel. I'm not a lawyer, so maybe there is a problem with it, but it must be checked (I know that the American law prohibits RedHat from selling/shipping the full package to foreign countries, but it does not prohinit it from selling it to a person in a store in America and so on). -- Eli Marmor = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
What did I do right?
Hi List, While most of us, as a rule of thumb live by the rule "if it works don't fix it" - I can't seem to ignore this: I've read some time ago on the list that shadow passwords don't work over NIS. Even read it on the documentation. I wanted to set up an NIS domain on my site with two Red Hat 6.0 server - one being the master and one acting as a client. I configured yp.conf and ypserv.conf where needed, ran the makefile (created empty files where it failed to run because of missing ones; e.g.:netgroups, which I currently don't use), but it didn't work because the master server was using shadow passwords, so I went to /var/yp and ran make shadow (or shadow.byname -- don't recall exacly) and copied the file it created to /var/yp/(mydomain) AND IT WORKED. What did I do right? Is it not a NIS domain? Did I unknowingly create an NYS or an NIS+ domain? Is the nag too outdated?

I recently had to set up a Linux machine as a NIS client where the server is a Solaris box, and it worked, even though Solaris uses a different scheme for shadow passwords (a passwd.adjunct.byname map instead of shadow.byname). This is a configuration that's supposedly impossible according to the NIS HOWTO, too, but alas it works.

I have two reservations about what you said: First, as we discussed previously in this group, importing the crypto parts to Israel, as well as actually using them, *may* be illegal according to Israeli laws... Second, it is important to understand that American law does not apply only to American citizens: for example, as an Israeli citizen you're not allowed to murder someone in the US, and if you're caught in the US doing that, you'd be tried and sentenced in the US. How does this apply in this case? The American ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations) prohibit the export from the US of certain kinds of encryption software. Now, you're right that if Redhat sold it to you in a store in America in good faith then they are not culpable, but *you* - the guy who took that CD out of the US and into Israel - broke the ITAR laws! I'm not saying the CIA will hunt you down, but if the Americans for some reason will want to give you a hard time, you can forget about ever entering the US again...

Re: Keyboard mapping.
I'd like to repeat the question I asked about a week ago: Where did this keyboard mapping come from? both xmodmap.il and hebrew.kmap say that they're based on a keyboard mapping from Slackware. I could find no other details. Anyway - Why has this mapping not been replaced long ago? Why do we still have it? Note: I have only tried it with Red-Hat and with Mandrake. I guess other distribtions have the same bogus hebrew mapping. Am I wrong? Amir Hardon wrote: Hello all. I have a little problem with Hebrew on Linux, I read the Hebrew-HOWTO.

kde and netscape buttons in hebrew
I have a problem with kde using hebrew. It won't show hebrew window titles (relevent especially in netscape). I changed the fonts to hebrew fonts, but it does't solve the problem. When I try to set the charset to any instead of iso-8859-1, it keeps returning to iso-8859-1. Also, under netscape, I got it to use hebrew, but whenever there are hebrew buttons (pulldown menus) it shows them as jiberish.
