Also, if you have access to a Windows machine the CD will autoplay and
let you setup LISA install disk. I've found LISA is much better than
LIZARD when doing a tricky or fine-tuned install.

You could try something like (at a telnet prompt near you)
bash$ telnet www.wlv.ac.uk 80
Trying 134.220.1.9... <- output from telnet
Connected to ccuf.wlv.ac.uk. <- more output from telnet

HEAD / HTTP/1.1 <- you type this bit - you're
talking HTTP

Connection: close <- and this

HTTP/1.1 200 OK <- and the server thinks you're
netscape or IE

it is

If you type GET rather than HEAD you'll get the full HTML text and, wow,

The book I started with was Dr. Linux. It's apparently a compilation of
HOWTO's etc.. from the Internet.
It starts off quite basic, describing installation processes, etc.. then
moeves into some more advanced topics.

That's not a proper use of the term hack, hacking DOES NOT involve breaking
into computers. Cracking is the proper term for this action, NOT hacking.
Hacking has nothing to do with breaking into computer systems.

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Hash: SHA1
Dear Microsoft
I was curious how an administrator of a MS WindowsNT/98/95
network is supposed to go about downloading all of the service
packs and various fixes for each of the os's from without having
to go to each machine? We do not think that we should have
to pay extra for fallacies that your programmers caused in your
software. There should be an easily accessible, freely available
ftp server of which we can download all of the various fixes for all
of you software and operating systems.
I went to your support site so that I could download the current
windows 98 fixes but it tells me that I have to be on a windows
98 machine in order to get these updates. None of our standard
95/98 machines have internet connection as we do not want our
employees to waste time "surfing the net". It would, in addition, be
an incredible waste of time for us to go to every machine and
individually download the fixes for each of them. This is not a very
good way to handle things in my opinion and I would be willing to
bet the same goes for several others.
I do realize that there is some software which can be installed on
an NT server so that all updates can be pushed out to machines
on the network. However, I do not think this is worth the money.
I mean, let's look at the picture here...
We purchase Microsoft software for our internal network which
originally costs several hundred for each machine on the network
if not thousand.
Microsoft designs buggy software and operating systems with various
security holes so they build fixes for the many products in
question...
several weeks after the bug is found and told to the world.
When the fix finally does come out we are required to pay for the bug
fixes in some way so work can be done efficiently...the same bugs that
microsoft produced in the first place. This pay is either done
through
having the cd's sent which costs the minimal amount of money (but is
still more than we should have to pay) to the more expensive method
of purchasing some server software that will centrally push out all of
the
updates. Of course, if so many bugs didn't exist in the first place
then
this software wouldn't be needed at all.
So that's an interesting way to do things. Make software that is
buggy
and costs a lot of money then make even more money off of selling the
bug fixes in a round about way. Funny. If you want to keep your
current
market you need to start improving the efficiency of how you operate
and stop trying to screw all of your customers by squeezing every last
cent
out of them. You need to create a constantly updated FTP site where
all
patches can easily be downloaded with any utility even command line
ftp
if that's desired. This also needs to be done without having to
register
some bogus information so you can send out your junk newsletters or
email
to whoever registers before letting them download. Basically, you
need to
stop being so hoaky about the way you conduct yourselves and just
setup
simple methods with no bs so we can get our jobs done quickly out here
in the industry field. Maybe you should take some lessons from the
linux
community. They patch their bugs practically the same day they are
reported and I believe they have some fairly good prices (as in free
for most
everything).
P.S. On a side note, our company is undergoing evaluation of whether
or
not we will be switching our entire network to linux desktop/server
machines.
If microsoft doesn't pull their act together it's definitely going to
happen.

AFAIK, the only way to run Linux binaries with SunOS/Solaris is with
Lxrun. However, I'm not a Solaris user, so I could be wrong on that;
there might be other means of getting them to work. Lxrun is available

Date: 13 Jul 1999 22:21:44 GMT
I've been shopping around for a Portable MP3 player (one of the
hardware players, similar in size to a Walkman or Discman). The problem
is that for many of the units, the software that interfaces your
computer and the player only runs under `Doze. Fortunately, I didn't
have to look too far to find Linux support (attached below). I'll
probably buy the MPlayer3 since the vendor directly supports Linux
(although I do plan to wait until the 32MB flash cards are available).
My question is; Are there any other Linux compatible players that I
have left out?
Player Interface Software

Pontis MPlayer3 http://www.mplayer3.com/ (from vendor)
Saehan MPMan http://www.world.co.uk/sba/mpman.htm (3rd party)

I've included the Diamond Rio for information only. I'm dating myself,
but I vividly recall the attitude that Diamond took in the early 90's
with regard to releasing the programming information for it's video
cards (the XFree86 folks couldn't get the information needed to support
their cards). With that memory still fresh, I have no intentions of
*ever* purchasing any Diamond product.

*shrug*
Because under Gil's administration, a lot of brain dead
decisions were made. Like deciding that Apple is a
"software company", even though selling MacOS 7.1 and
later was 'noise' in Apple's bottom line compared to
selling hardware.
Frankly, I could never figure out whose head was up
whose ass when the various pundants bounced around the
concept of Apple as a software company. Yes, Apple
employes a lot of programmers and writes a lot of
software. But Apple sells hardware, not software:
moving Apple to a 'software only' model (which was
being suggested at the time by several folks) is
brain-dead in the extreme.
But then, it wouldn't be the first time that Apple's
management was brain-dead to the point of insanity.
Fortunately, someone came along and figured out that
this latest brain-dead move was killing Apple.
Hell--I could have told Apple how to clean up their
act, and I wouldn't have charged anywhere near the
$400 million Steve Jobs did...

It's also not true. There are plenty of ways to protect your home system
even if the network you're connected to has been compromised.
Use encrypted communication channels (e.g. ssh, SSL) to protect the data
you transfer (including passwords) from being sniffed. Run only the services
you absolutely need on your home system and keep them updated to reduce the
risk of being exploited. Use tcp_wrappers or a firewall to restrict access
to your system from the external network...
Read these newsgroups for a few days and you'll have more ideas than you can
implement.

Today I might agree with you.
But you have to consider the time frame when GAP 3
(and its systems module) was developed.
There was only a draft of the ANSI C standard.
The various operating systems (including Linux at that time)
differed a great deal in which prototypes they provided
and in which header files they provided them.
Quite often the operating systems defined prototypes
that were incompatible with the ANSI definitions
(most often signed / unsigned differences).
Sometimes the prototypes were incompatible with the
library functions.
Furthermore I wanted an approach that would work equally
under UNIX, DOS, Windows, VAX/VMS, Macintosh/MacOS, Atari/TOS, etc.
That excluded complicated things like Autoconfig
(which was NOT available at that time anyhow).
So the approach was to provide prototypes
(most of the time compatible with the ANSI requirements if available),
and have compile time options to hide those prototypes
in case they conflicted with prototypes provided by the operating system.
Those compile time options were usually defined in the 'Makefile'
but could be specified on the command line.
Today, several years later, somebody has a problem compiling
GAP v3.4 on a Linux machine. All that is necessary to overcome
this problem is to specify an option on the 'make' command line.
Even now, with the ANSI standard accepted, a program that
wants to be portable has to face the problem of incompatible
prototypes, prototypes that should be available but are not,
and prototypes that are in unexpected header files.
Autoconf is one solution to this problem.
But it does rely on several utitilities and last time I looked
would not help with Macintosh/MacOS or Atari/TOS.
(Side remark: When Autoconf began it was a real pain.
More often than not a Autoconf script would fail,
because it would rely on a particular behaviour
of the shell, grep, awk, compiler, etc.)
The GAP v3.4 approach in another solution to this problem.
It required more work by us (because the configuration
and the configured program were not separated as in Autoconf).
But it worked on any system that had a compiler and
a 'make' (and it did not require a special 'make' implementation).
To close the circle:
I think that now Autoconf is a better solution to the problem.
But the GAP approach was (and is) a solution to the problem.
And I think (even with hindsight) that back then,
it was probably the best solution.
So I come to the end of my argument ;-)
I have to object to your calling this a bug.
(But your quite right: It is not a library problem. :-)

From Nov 1983 to Jan 1988, I programmed exclusively in
Microsoft BASIC on my parents' Epson QX-10, a 4MHz Z80 machine
running CP/M.
I remember how incredibly SLOW this BASIC interpreter was.
So slow, that when printing dot-matrix graphics, the print head
had to pause about five times on each row, waiting for the BASIC
interpreter to catch up.
One of my BASIC programs was a flight simulator. (I still
have the code, if anyone's curious). At 1.76 seconds between
screen updates, it was not easy to fly.
What really killed me was that the QX-10 had a 640x480
monochrome graphics display, but MBASIC had no drawing commands
for it. My dad found a way to draw by poking raw hex code into
a BASIC array and executing it. I never was able to duplicate
this trick.
