Easy enough! ln -s nothing something
And now something is a link to nothing. You can find something,
but you can't find nothing because something doesn't point to
anything. :-)

The only thing stored is a filename for a file which does not
exit, so I'm not sure what value there is in being able to
access it quickly. (And in fact, ls doesn't access it any
faster than it does synlinks to files that do exist... ;-(

Hmm. I'm not in linux at the moment, but I seem to recall that

Oh definitely but this is what leads to a misuse of terminology and
loss of priorities in software development as well. The developer, in
trying to make their app easy to learn loses sight of the fact that
this may be affecting efficiency. Perhaps he may even be thinking that
ease of learning equals efficiency of use.....quite a preposterous
assumption.
Windows is towards one extreme, Linux is towards the other extreme and
making it's way quite quickly to an optimum balance between the two
and OS/2 is pretty much, right at the balance already.....how
unfortunate it is that such a good OS is doing so badly.<sigh>

I don't know anything about BRU, but with tar this is easy: just tar
to the non-rewind tape device (each instance is a 'volume') and 'mt
rewind'
when you're done. Does BRU have control over what device you write to?

Hi,
I'm busy with linux for a few months and yesterday I installed RH 5.1
Everything works, X also works (with fvwm, fvwm2, fvwm95, anotherlevel
etc.), but one thing doesn't work: KDE.
I installed it from an other cd, when I've modivated "xinitrc" and type
"startx", then x starts with KDE I can see the KDE taskbar and menu, but
when I click on an icon it does nothing. When I watch what x is doeing
when i
I click an icon I see that it gives an error: "KDE is not running , KDE
is not ready". But when I watch the commands when X is starting it
says: "Starting <someprograme> ... DONE
Starting <someprograme> ... DONE
Starting KFM ... DONE
Starting <someprograme> ... DONE
Starting <someprograme> ... DONE"
What is the problem, couse it looks that KFM starts just fine, but it
doesn't. What do I need to do?
I'm sure that there plenty of smart people who can help me, I hope that
one of them reads my question...
So please send any solutions, commands or suggestions to me

I just got me the latest Enlightenment release from CVS, and it built and
compiled OK. The problem is it doesn't seem to find any of its data;
everything is gray, and there are neither icons nor menus.
I set EROOT and ENLIGHTENMENT_ROOT to the correct path (/opt/enlightenment),
I even had my .xinitrc cd to $EROOT before the exec line. Starting
Enlightenment with a theme name didn't help, either.
I wonder what I'm doing wrong?

Actually it has to be Windows, because system.dat and user.dat are
locked while Windows is running. Without extreme measures, a user can
not delete user.dat and system.dat.
Suffice to say, when the registry is corrupt, it is Windows' fault.
Windows hides the structure (data format), manages the API, and locks
the files when it is running. What else can corrupt such a file?

You forget 3 - you don't want an equally long MANPATH.
(And, no, even on Solaris, I don't use /opt for that reason.)

I've got on my computer:
* Win 98
* 2 GB hard drive

I want resize the partitions to these new values:

* 0.7 GB partition for Linux that includes:
- 48 MB swap partition
- 62 MB root partition
- 60 MB /usr/src partition
- 530 MB /usr partition
What do you think about these values? I want to know where I can download a

Shouldn't that be $EROOT/bin?
Usually you just need the full pathname to the executable. Under my
machine it's /usr/local/enlightenment/bin/enlightenment. Does
Enlightenment know that all of its config info is under /opt and not
/usr/local? You may also want to copy the config files to
~/.enlightenment.
