wd0: soft error (corrected) is the message I see (dmesg), the network issue is still not resolved... my guess is some bit of info needed was on a bad sector or something... when I run sh /etc/netstart I get the messge writing to routing socket: File exists is the network device driver loaded? how would I know? what file exists? should it? what should I do about this file? so... I would like to get the network back up... so I can try more stuff... like I did find nano :) will make it my def editor, aswell as make a symlink or alias for pico :) > Actually I was trying to check out sorceror.wox.org, but it was timing > out before it would send any data.

I really liked doing DNS fun.... running mailserver is cool too... but once you get it running right you dont usually mess with it much... but you can have fun with DNS anyday :) > > > hmmm sounds like I have the option of installing on a separate box, > > building qt, building tcl, building kde, debugging dependancies, paths, > > ... then making a standalone konqueror tar, and hoping it works... > > sigh....
