Thanks for all the responses. Now I think that I'll definitely give LyX a go.
However at the moment I don't have a specific thesis layout. Does anyone have
one for LyX? Or do you have a site from which I can download from? Thanks
again.

5.0? That's a couple of revisions ago, but here goes:
Chances are, it is already set up to handle other resolutions, but 640x480
is the default. With X running, try switching to another resolution by
pressing these 3 keys all at the same time: <Ctrl><Alt><+>
(where <+> is the grey key on the far right on your keyboard)
To change it permenantly, make a backup copy of the config file:
/etc/X11/XF86Config and then edit it (it may be in the /etc/ directory).
You will find several "mode" lines like this:
Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768"
There is only one that controls your current session, but just to be
sure, I change them all (or delete unused sections). The example
line shown above tells X to use the resolutions in the order shown.
If you want 800x600 to be your primary resolution, change it like
so:
Modes "800x600" "640x480" "1024x768"
If it doesn't change the resolution when you restart X, you changed
a line that doesn't control your session.
If it can't display the higher resolution on your screen, you may have
to re-run Xconfigurator or get some different video hardware.
Hope this helps.

It is even unfortunate that you have chosen the to use the term
operating system to refer to this collection of software, when for
many years it has been used to describe the layer of software that
sits between the computer's hardware and the applications running on
that computer, and provides an abstract interface for those
applications which hides the differences between the various brands
and models of device the computer might contain.
A better term for what you are discussion might be "Operating
Environment".
There is no OS/Browser integration.

Huh? If you have a supported drive, you can use either media type
with xcdroast. What happened when you tried?

There isn't any difference in the way you write a single session.
Xcdroast uses cdrecord under the GUI. You can erase the CD-RW with
cdrecord's command line mode -blank=all.
>I would really like to know what software is available for CD-RW's.
Cdrecord claims to do multiple sessions as well as erasing but
I haven't bothered with that yet.

How close are Irix and Solaris to Linux?
If I knew Linux would those OSes be familiar do you think?

Subject: RedHat - Need some help (please)
Date: Fri, 05 Feb 1999 12:25:37 GMT
I'm new to the whole Linux thing. I've got it up & running fine on an
old 486 I had sitting around. I need help on a couple of issues
though. I've read the man pages and am still stumbling about.
Specific help would be appreciated (instead of a reference to the man
pages).
First, a simple question: my X desktop is 800x600. How do I change
it to 1024x768? My video card will handle it, I just can't figure out
where to change it.
Second - I have Samba installed, and have given the Linux box a
Netbios name and joined the same workgroup as my other machine (NT).
I can see the Linux box from the NT box, but when I try to connect
from NT, the Linux box asks for a username and password. I give it a
what it asks for, and it tells me I don't have permission to connect
from "this workstation". Where do I tell Linux that this is
permissible? I have defined a directory share in smb.conf to try to
get this going, but still no luck.
Lastly (and I feel really ignorant with this one), I have two drives
installed. The second drive is empty (no directories or files). How
do I get X File Manager to see this drive?
Thanks In Advance for the help. Email responses are most welcome in
addition to posts.

Reply-To: David Guertin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Hi folks,
I'm trying to put together a tutorial for installing Red Hat Linux,
and I'd like to include screen shots of the ASCII menus. I've seen
them in the Red Hat manual, so I know it can be done, but I can't for
the life of me figure out how.
I can capture normal virtual consoles on a running system with `cat
/dev/vcs*', but during the install procedure the vcs* devices are not
available, so that option doesn't work.
I thought there might be a way to display the menus from a running
system, but when I try that I just get insulted (justifiably, of
course) with the message: "you're running me on a live system! that's
incredibly stupid."
Is there another method that someone can recommend?
Thanks,

Trouble Starting X with correct resolution
I am very new to Linux so please bear with my ignorance and newbie
questions. The Redhat 5.1 installation from Que seemed clean and
straightforward. I gave up on the installation automatically selecting my
actual components (as I get a locked black screen):
Actual Components:
PS2 (MS IntelliMouse)
DEC Compatible NIC
Optiquest V95 monitor
STB Velocity 128
Question: Is the black screen considered a virtual terminal?
Several from the newsgroups suggested that I use xf86config to set up X so I
did.
? If I go through and pick all generic devices, X will start but at a
unbearable 320 x 320 resolution.
? If I go through and pick 800x600 and the STB Velocity etc� I still get
the unbearable resolution
? Sometimes if I pick some various combinations of resolution and Video , x
will lock. When I say pick various combinations, they are combinations of
generic drivers and settings that the monitor can actually handle.
Question: Is there a quick and easy Windoze way of changing resolution in
X?
Suggestions ?
Thank you for your time

What mail program are you using? It may be rewriting the address. I found

Subject: Public release of LyX version 1.0.0
Date: 5 Feb 1999 04:14:56 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Public release of LyX version 1.0.0
===================================
LyX is an advanced open source document processor running on many Unix
platforms. It is called a "document processor", because unlike standard
word processors, LyX encourages an approach to writing based on the
structure of your documents, not their appearance. LyX lets you
concentrate on writing, leaving details of visual layout to the software.
LyX automates formatting according to predefined rule sets, yielding
consistency throughout even the most complex documents. LyX produces high
quality, professional output -- using LaTeX, an open source, industrial
strength typesetting engine, in the background.
With LyX, short notes or letters are a snap. LyX really shines, though,
when composing complex documents like technical documentation, doctoral
theses and conference proceedings.
LyX has undergone a quantum leap in functionality over the past 18 months.
This release offers extensive control over fonts, margins, headers/footers,
spacing/indents, justification, bullet types in multilevel lists, a
sophisticated table editor, a version control interface for collaborative
projects -- the list goes on and on. LyX 1.0 includes many standard formats
and templates such as for letters, articles, books, overheads, even
Hollywood scripts. Work continues on a growing library of "plug-in" formats
and templates, in the best open-source tradition.
LyX presents the user with the familiar face of a WYSIWYG word processor.
However, users familiar with Microsoft Word or WordPerfect may be
perplexed by certain basic LyX behavior. For example, repeatedly hitting
the space bar has no effect! This is by design: LyX puts in the proper
spacing for you, intelligently. Welcome to the LyX paradigm!
You set the "ground rules" and place the elements of your document into
proper categories. Let's say, you tell LyX that a certain line is a
Section title. LaTeX adds the Section to your table of contents, places
the Section name into your page header, gives it a special "bold"
appearance on the page, assigns it a number or label, and tells other
parts of your document what page it's on, for references and citations.
Many of the headaches of traditional word processing just vanish.
LaTeX easily processes hundreds of chapter and section labels, thousands
of footnotes and inserted graphics, intricate cross-references, complex
multi-level outlines, formatted tables of contents and lists of
illustrations, and exhaustive indices or bibliographies, and is rightly
famous for the superb quality of its output. Users already acquainted
with "raw" LaTeX will find that LyX offers full LaTeX transparency and
import/export of LaTeX documents.
LyX contains a fully integrated formula editor which is easily
best-of-breed, adding WYSIWYG point-and-click convenience to LaTeX's
legendary math typesetting capabilities. If you're into scientific
authoring, this is the jewel in the crown. TRY IT!
Think of LyX as the first WYSIWYM word processor: What You See Is What
You MEAN. All the common formatting intelligence of LaTeX is presented
to the user through visual controls, like a table-of-contents window
acting as an outline browser, "live" reference links (to figure and table
captions, sections, pages and literature citations), automatic multilevel
section and list numbering, and more. You tell LyX how to treat
particular words and lines in your document: e.g., this is standard text,
this is a Section title, this is a footnote, this is a caption beneath an
inserted graphic. As you click your selections, the WYSIWYM interface
gives you clean, straightforward "visual cues" (actually, very
WYSIWYG-like).
The approach has ergonomic advantages. You can enlarge the screen fonts
to suit your tastes but still have all the text on the screen -- without
affecting the margins and other formatting of your final output. Thus,
you can work comfortably on small displays (or if your eyes are tired or
your eyesight is not so good) and get the final output right with just a
couple of page previews using xdvi or ghostview.
LyX includes excellent and copious on-line help: a beginner's tutorial,
user's guide, and additional manuals describing advanced features. LyX's
menu system exists in a dozen different (Latin character set) languages,
selectable at run time.
LyX conspicuously lacks a filter for importing MS Word documents. The
LyX Team considers this not worth the effort, as word processors in
general are moving away from proprietary formats to the open XML
standard. So, as long as you need continued access to legacy documents,
you should retain a traditional word processor, e.g., Corel's WordPerfect
for Linux.
LyX runs on standard Unix platforms, including Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD,
Solaris, IRIX, HP-UX, AIX, ... even OS/2 and Cygnus/Win32 (somewhat
experimentally), and provides native support for PostScript(tm) fonts
and figures.
More about LyX, including screen shots and the LyX Graphic Tour, at:
http://www.lyx.org/
What's new compared to LyX version 0.12.0?
==========================================
Most importantly, import of existing LaTeX documents using the new
reLyX perl script. Better support for SGML/LinuxDoc, tables, and
indexing/bibliographies, etc. Summing up, it's better looking, better
working, better documented, and lots of bugs have been fixed.
How stable is LyX?
==================
This release is considered stable, but as with any software, you should
take appropriate back-up steps in a production environment.
What about KLyX?
================
KLyX is a port of LyX version 0.12.0 to KDE, done primarily by Matthias
Ettrich and Kalle Dalheimer. It was made as a proof-of-principle, to
demo how good looking LyX could be made on this desktop environment,
and implement some advanced features which KDE, and its Qt toolkit,
facilitate. There is an intention to re-integrate KLyX into the LyX
code base; by version 1.2, LyX should be GUI toolkit/desktop agnostic.

If you specifically want to learn TeX/LaTeX then don't use LyX as it
exists to offer a WYSIWYM interface whereas TeX/LaTeX are markup languages
inside a text docement.
There are several excellent books available for TeX/LaTeX 0 I suspect
that, as ever, the O'Reilly ones should attract your attention.

You can change the percentage of the screen that apps take up when
maximized. Just look for the maximize keywork in your .fvwm2rc.
Also, you might try icewm which already is set up not to maximize over its
taskbar. And if you are not too attached to taskbars I recommend Window
Maker (even though I'm using fvwm2 now ;}).
