I think it was last year 'round Sept./Oct. that I finally got glib/gtk
(can't remember which version) compiled
and installed(and then got E running too). However, after my HD
crashed, I lost everything aside for the
tar files which I saved on a ZIP disk.
Anyway, I remember going through this before, but I cannot remember how
I fixed this problem. I'm
trying to compile glib1.1.2 (or was it 1.2.2?) and it keeps on reporting
that I don't have pthreads enabled
or something like that. How would I go about in fixing it? I've been
to the gtk.org webpage and
unless I missed a page, I couldn't find anything about pthreads..
well..aside for the Changelogs.
Any help appreciated.

You need to recompile your kernel with SCSI generic support enabled.

Ah, but the vast majority of it was from within the 'defense' arm of the
government. It wasn't HUD or the Dept of the Interior.
It's very misleading to claim such as a "social institution".

Yes, and in those days, it was for code breaking by the OSS. :)
OSS was hardly a social program either (except in the same way that
assasinations and espionage are 'social').

If it can, would you please to teach me how to setup it ??

After configuring my sound card I found that I screwed up my modem.
Here is how I was configuring my sound card Sound Blaster 64
(following B.Ball's book "Using Linux"): I used the command (that's
all)
/usr/sbin/sndconfig
it did change my /etc/conf.modules file from a blank one to the
following:
alias sound sb
options -k sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1,5
what i didn't know (as I found later in the book) was that it also
changed my /etc/isapnp.conf to
the one that I include in the end, and I don't know what was there
before since I did it (configuration of SB) more than once and the
first bakup file that system did for me was replaced.
Here how Linux responded to some commands that as I was told would
tell me about my IRQ business etc:
[root@localhost /root]# setserial /dev/cua1
/dev/cua1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
[root@localhost /root]# cat /proc/interrupts
0: 16083 timer
1: 131 keyboard
2: 0 cascade
8: 1 + rtc
12: 232 PS/2 Mouse
13: 1 math error
14: 3428 + ide0
15: 0 + ide1
[root@localhost /]# ls -l /dev/modem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 May 10 01:16 /dev/modem
-> /dev/cua1
from /var/log/messages i have:
May 10 01:26:28 localhost pppd[424]: pppd 2.3.3 started by root,
uid 0
May 10 01:26:28 localhost pppd[424]: tcgetattr: Input/output
error(5)
May 10 01:26:29 localhost pppd[424]: Exit.
any ideas about what is wrong with the modem?
Thanks a lot.

I wouldn't want to use any "real" MUA that insisted on dumping mail from
a variety of mailboxes all together.
You can also change to '{mailserver}Mailbox' just as any other folder.
If you want it to automatically change your froms, you'll have to add a
folder hook for that: it would be wrong for Mutt to just guess and would
lead to wrong address like Eudora often does, leaving your address as
[EMAIL PROTECTED], instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED], or even,
perhaps, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
There isn't a one-to-one relationship between mailboxes and return
addresses. Any mail client that forces such a thing is broken.

I am burning cd's with a sony cdu940 / adaptec 2940uw (xcdroast .96) data
