Daniel,
If you don't want to spend a lot of money to try Linux, visit
http://www.cheapbytes.com . You can get a distribution for 1.99US. Both
Mandrake and RedHat have pretty easy setups - Mandrake is really just Red
Hat with some modifications - but all the distributions are very good. I
use Mandrake, Slackware and Debian as well as FreeBSD(which is not Linux by
the way). If you let it, Mandrake will do most of the install for you.
I seem to remember reading about some issues with the Rockwell chipset. I
would check that out. It may be a Winmodem. If that is the case replacing
it will save you quite a few CPU cycles.
It's a good idea to read some of the documentation before you try an
install. A good place to start is http://www.linuxdoc.org . I first tried
Linux using one of InfoMagic's jewel cased distro collections. It came with
three distros, archives and a very useful, concise installation manual.
You can also try the following links:
http://www.linuxmall.com
http://www.infomagic.com
http://www.redhat.com
http://www.debian.org
Good Luck

The 3rd drive had been changed to the master status before fdisk -l was
done. I have had it both ways and it doesn't matter, the performance is
the same. I think what is happening is that the partition is being
checked each time I boot and since it is a 8.3 gbyte drive it just takes
a long time.

Subject: Help with bttv and tuner options for Hauppauge WinTV board
Date: Fri, 20 Aug 1999 01:10:14 GMT
Hi all
I am having trouble getting bttvgrab to work on my RH6.0 system with a
Hauppauge WinTV board. When I try to grab an image, all I get is a
blue screen or static. I suspect I haven't selected the options for
the bttv and tuner kernel modules. I'm installing the following
modules
insmod videodev
insmod i2c verbose=1 scan=1 i2c_debug=0
insmod tuner debug=0 type=6
insmod bttv radio=0 card=15
which produces the following output in the syslog.

That's more or less right.
The problem is that something like C-TAX is neither "fish nor fowl."
It's not really C; it's not really Scheme.
It's not unlike the situation way back when Bourne shell was written,
where (if the apocryphal tales are correct) Mr. Bourne created a set
of C macros that basically allowed the gentle programmer to write C
using a syntax that looked rather similar to Pascal/Algol.
This unfortunately made the code nearly unmaintainable, as it wasn't
recognizable as either C *or* Pascal.
The Casbah project (<http://www.casbah.org/>) was planning to create
an infrastructure that would emulate/rewrite Perl code into Scheme
that would be executed using DrScheme. This proved impractical; the
language that would result would not really be Perl, but rather a
language-that-gets-transformed that-somewhat-resembles-Perl. And for
some purposes, it would be preferable to work with the "original
Perl," and for others, the Scheme that gets generated.
Better to say: "Guile *is* a Scheme implementation" and be done with
it...

There is also, in at least one RH distro an "mt-st v. 0.5" which is so
busted that I've seen recommendations to go back to 0.4. 0.5b seems to
be just fine though. I'm using it here.

You have to make sure your mta (qmail, sendmail, exim etc.) is listening for
incoming smtp connections on port 25 (from fetchmail, in this case).

If 'philip' is the name you use to log in, that's fine. Just give the name,
no hostname or anything else.

Err, no. Try 'telnet localhost' and take a look at the man page for telnet ;)

CFS Alert
<http://www.8wing.trenton.dnd.ca/wce/alert.htm>
<http://tscm.com/alert.html>
It is reported (by Department of National Defense) as the "most
northern permanently inhabited settlement in the world."
Rumor has it that the complement *was* 180, and was to be converted
largely to remote operations thereby reducing staffing by 90%,
presumably to 20.
The staff are largely associated with the Communications Research
trade, which is the radio signals interception group.
[I did a preliminary interview with the related CSE group some years
ago; from the material that I see, I suspect that Alert could have
been In My Future had I taken it seriously. It's the dead of summer
in Texas where I am now; I don't feel nearly as bad about the heat
here right now...]

Hi,
FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD have the same origins. All started from
386BSD. The first group leaving that camp (as I know) was NetBSD. They
now emphasize correctness, multiplatformity, etc. They are a sort of
academic OS.
FreeBSD focuses on the Intel platform since it is the most abundant.
Certainly they are the best among the BSDs for Intel. Some of the net
biggest sites are running FreeBSD. Examples include Yahoo, Hotmail (now
owned by MS), ftp.cdrom.com, etc. Nowadays they start to port the system
to other architectures.
OpenBSD is the younest among them. It was founded when a key NetBSD
developer was kicked out from there. They are also strongly
multiplatform, but due to their limited resources, they support less
platforms. OpenBSD's main strength is security, correctness, an crypto.
For this reason, they cannot move the project to the US despite it would
be much cheaper.
All of them are very good systems, but except FreeBSD, they are a bit
rough for a beginner.

What about News Harvest ? I'm looking for something better
than Netscape for reading these messages -- preferably not
one by one, with NS flakiness (bogus errors, or some msg.s
not loading), and which has some provision for dodging the
spambots. NS will not allow you to alter your username, for
