It fits into the ignorance category, actually :>
There are a lot of interpretations of exactly what Jesus was. The latest
one I heard (just relating here - not meaning to offend anybody) is that
Jesus was/is black, and on armageddon day he'll send all whites to hell
and the blacks will rejoice in heavan.
The fact that Jesus did not speak english seems to have escaped the original
poster - hence my ignorance comment.
As for the zealot comment - generally when someone brings god into a non-
religious newsgroup, it means they're somewhat of a zealot.
"My OS is better than your OS!"
"It is not! As God says ... "
Sort of like the Hitler clause ;>

Have you messed with .kdelnks much? That's how KDE binds apps to file
types.
First make sure you have a .kdelnk for the app, kpackage. Use
kfm-->File-->Find for kpackage.kdelnk. There should be one in
$KDEDIR/share/applink/Utilities. If not then drag a Program.kdelnk from
the templates icon. into that directory; Select copy when you drop it.
Right click on it and select Properties. Fill it in. (Right click some
other .kdelnks to see what they did or read "KDE Help - Quick Start
Guide to the Desktop")
Second make sure you have a mimetype for .rpm. There should be a file,
x-rpm.kdelnk in $KDEDIR/share/mimelnk/application. If not, repeat the
above procedure to copy a Mimetype.kdelnk to the mimelnk directory
above. Change it's Properties appropriately.
You may have to go back and forth between the Properties of these two
kdelnks to make sure that: a) kpackage.kdelnk uses the x-rpm.kdelnk and
b) the x-rpm.kdelnk uses kpackage.kdelnk as the default app.

I had everything working fine no errors in /var/log/messages on my
"stock" RedHat 6.0 system. I downloaded 2.2.10 Kernel, make menuconfig,
make dep, make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install and now I'm
receiving the errors below. Any ideas? Did I miss something in
menuconfig? Also when I ran "make menuconfig" I choose not to add
support for a 3com card I have in the system but do intend to use it I
thought I could add it later as a module in file /etc/conf.modules is
this true??? I think I know just enough to be dangerous : )

How are you addressing the device from mt. Mine is /dev/st0. If mt

By now, I think you know that Linux will run on PCs, ie Intel
baesed microprocessors, as well as on others microprocessors
such as Motorola, etc.

Wait till some users get the hang of latex. In fact name
a university that on occassiona has a job opening for a
tech writer that can use tex/latex.
With any Linux distribution you can install Xwindow.
Typically there are 6 CDs. And there's more software
that you can download from ftp sites all over the world ?
And now a days netscape comes bundled w/ some linux
distributions, ie. infomagic, caldera, redhat, debian, etc.
It you install X window, then you have the capability of
word processing, spread sheet, web browser and email ...
There's always old trusty Mosaic and that's downloadable.
... checking bookshelf ... Linux Journal 1998 Buyer's Guide.
yeah there's alot of business sell utilities for Linux
these days.

This would be a good move. Since at every university in

Is Linux better ...? I feel that it's best to be exposed to as
many operating systems as possible. You don't know what kind of
job you'll get these days. There will always be flaws here and
there, and there will always be fixes for those flaws.
Linux is an operating system for programmers, engineering.
But I just threw away a brochure that somoeone was selling an
office suite for Linux, Word processor, spreadsheet, database,
mail/comm/inter-intra-net workability (so why buy Novel ?) and
so I forgot who the company/product was.
So dig around for Linux Journal and get their buys guide ?
There's also a good mag. SysAdmin.
As for games, I do like Boulderdash.

Gee,
I didn't know Jesus was American or British (or any other nationality
that speaks English). I thought he spoke Hebrew... How's that fit into
the irony vs zealotry and ignorance debate? Did he take some sort of
college class, or did he have some English-speaking relatives? If he
spoke English, why are there all those different translations of the
Bible out there (into English)? Did someone translate it into Hebrew
for Jesus, and then they had to translate it back? Now THAT would be
irony. I suppose he was as white as white could be too, even though he
was born and raised in the Middle East... Do you think he was into
MotoCross? I wonder if his favorite food was hot dogs, hamburgers,
french fries, and snickers bars?

{sigh} I've read all the man pages, but now it's time for me to beg for

I've just grabbed Seti@Home to run under Linux (with RC5 running under OS/2),
and want to start it apon bootup with a cron entry. The README file mentioned
an "included" set_cron_job script, but the tarball only contained the binary
and README file.
Can someone explain how to start a cron entry once only?
I've currently got a rather complex setup to run an EggDrop bot - but it
involves running a script every ten minutes to check for the existance of
(and stale checking) a PID file, performing some other miscelaneous checks,
then running the bot if neccesary.
A tad over the top for my needs here - and I don't see a PID file (or any
reference to said) in the setiathome directory.

===============FWD===================
Posted 09/07/99 11:37am by Mike Magee, The Register, London, UK.
AMD K7: 700MHz an easy overclock
Sources close to AMD said today that overclocking Athlon K7s is an
easy matter, with systems builders easily able to achieve speeds of
700MHz.
But things could get even better for overclocking freaks, because the
same source said that AMD is likely to introduce a 750MHz part either
late in Q3 or early in Q4 this year.
If AMD continues its policy of supporting gamers willing to overclock
their parts, that could mean some very fast systems will emerge,
knocking spots off the Intel competition, he said.
Multiprocessor boards are unlikely to arrive until early next year,
however.
Rana Mainee, European research director at AMD, said: "We don't
recommend overclocking but we haven't done anything in K7 to prevent
it. If people want to do that, they can choose to do so at
their own risk."
He said the majority of people using K7s would never want to open a
machine but there were dedicated hobbyists who would want to tweak
performance to its maximum.
He said he was unable to confirm the 750MHz K7 Athlon part, but
added: "The K7 core is a great core and its very scalable". �

<snip>
1. Take box offline and re-install. Only sure way to remove any damage that may have
been done since very little precautions were taken prior to the breakin.
2. Here is a starting point for securing your Linux box. It is written for RedHat, but
can be applied to virtually any distribution of Linux.
http://www.enteract.com/~lspitz/linux.html. It is a guide for Armoring Linux to
prevent
breakins.
3. Visit www.cert.org, www.securityfocus.com, www.assist.mil, and
www.securityportal.com
to obtain more information on securing your machine. _No_ operating system is totally
secure right out of the package, and all require extra precautions/setup/configuration
to provide the amount of security required.
4. Ensure that you have the latest updates for whatever distribution you are using.
5. Good luck.

If you want to see more of it, say 20 lines, use tail -n20 filename
Or perhaps, if you want to scroll back and forth through it, try the
