When I attempt to install any app from a dowloaded tar file after
uncompressing, the following is as far as I can get. I'm using stock RedHat
6.0 w/egcs. Anyone able to give me a possible solution?
/configure

I am not a pro of compilation under linux, but I think your trying to compile your app
with
gcc while red-hat 6.0 does not supply it. I think that if you edit your Makefile and
replace
all "gcc" by "egcs" it would work better.
Good luck !!!

KDE has always refused to load if it thought that it was still running which happens
if it has a little shit around that just won't die. It was perhaps a bug in KDE or
X not setup correctly. Rebooting was the only alternative I've found. I think it's
the graphic login program of KDE that caused the problems I had.
Anyhow what is so hard about typing startx?
On the subject of X, how do you load more than one instance. I've been told to stick
it when I try.

ok, i hear people saying that this modem works.
great, I have the same modem, but when I tried to detect it under
Suse 6.1, it doesn't detect anything. In windows 98 I have the modem
under COMport3 under the modem's properties in the ctrl panel. But
there is no COMport 3 in the System Properties...I am not sure if that
was the problem, but I tried to create a new COMport3 there with no
luck...(just gave me a 4/5).
So I moved the modem (thru using a diff IRQ in windows settings)
to COMport4 in win98 and went back into Suse
and again it detects nothing
Log in as root, used YaST to update the new COMport everytime of the
change and
I also used the "wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf" that was in the
manual(p143).
The last command is the line that activate the modem detection....
If you have Suse, what am I doing wrong?
If not, can you tell in detail how I can install this manually??
Thanks

DOS ver 7 aka Windows95/98/2000 hopefuly booted in non graphical
mode. Looks and behaves like an invalid.
Linux is: 32 bit
runs on single processor (old PC's)
uses protected mode (there is version for 286 - but never
seen it working)
if you do not install x-windows and ncurses you have two
color
screen (it's called monochrome).
at minimum two users: root (the almighty) and the actual
person
banging on the keyboard, any other combination invites
disaster.
someone smarter than me should answer how to tie the OS
hand and foot to make it singletasking. But it maybe the
privilege
of root. Even DOS is not single tasking anymore.
Good luck on your quest.

It has been said before: You'll have to add the location to your path.
Assuming you use the csh-shell, you can edit .cshrc, add the path
statements and enter following:
source .cshrc
This will validate the new path staements without having to restart your

So use an HTML editor for the HTML. And if you want to have any

Has anyone tried MS NT Services for Unix?
If you haven't heard of it, it is a set of utilities for NT 4 that includes
NFS client and server, Telnet server and a collection of unix command line
utilities.
I also has a password synchroniser that syncs your unix passwords to those
on the NT server. The sync utility requires a daemon to run on the unix box
and MS have (un)helpfully provided pre-compiled binaries for other OSs, but
not Linux. They provide the source code, but not in a easy to use format (no
Makefile etc).
My question is....... Has anyone successfully compiled the ssod daemon for
Linux?

I'm sure you find it incredibly inspirational to think that it will
take *only* 45 deaths on your side to inflict a single casualty on the
other. There's a problem though; the US army could pull out of Vietnam,

Installing Netscape 4.6 worked fine and it started without any errors.
Every try to connect to any URL address ends with an "Netscape is unable to
connect to the server "xxx"..."
The connection (T-Online) is working fine with any other application (eg. kfm,

Is there a link I have to set, any file to edit?

When you install the egcs package from redhat you'll get the gcc, egcs,
and cc commands all refering to the very same compiler. Therefore it
shouldn't matter if you use gcc or egcs or cc to run your compiler. Maybe
the egcs package wasn't installed, or the directory is writeprotected,
or something else. The config procedure will usually create enough output
trace files to tell.

I purchased a couple of generic 10/100 Mbit ethernet cards for $19 hoping
they would work on Linux. They have a RealTek 8139 chip on
them. Luckily, there is a driver for that chip that works great. I get
terrific throughput and there were no config hassles. For $19, you can't

Yeah, the boards certainly exist but the pricing is nuts.
Netwinder is similar: last year I bought one (complete machine with
275 MHz StrongArm, 64 MB RAM, 3 GB disk, 2 MB video, ethernet,
