If you haven't obtained a distribution yet, I suggest Caldera's OpenLinux
and here is why:

StarOffice 5 will replace the functionality of these and then adds the
"Office Professional" apps like word processor, spreadsheet etc.

You'll have to do HTML by hand as I don't know of a replacement for these.

:)) At the moment, I'm recompiling my entire collection of Gnome CVS
modules after having intentionally zapped /opt/gnome totally. I build
everything cleanly with --disable-static, and, oh miracle of miracles,
I've got a complete Gnome installation in less than 30 megabytes.
(That includes translations in about 20 languages, though :).

That's one reason why I prefer the DAT drives -- the cost of the tapes
should be factored in, and the DAT tapes are usually the cheapest ones.
About a year ago (specifically christmastime last year) I got a good
deal on a HP SureStore 4mm DAT drive, and about the same time I picked
up a set of ten tapes for about $5 per tape, so my tape needs are
covered (so far.)
Travan tapes are certainly more expensive than $5 per tape, and
AFAIK Travan is slower.
But how much (and how many tapes) you use will determine whether or
not the initial outlay for the drive is justifiable.

The format's name was Gif, I'd seen it around. Unisys must have

licensing talk - a mishmash of red tape, greed, desperation, whatever.

When you say that these books contain "the unabridged work of the LDP",
do you mean that they contain all the Howtos and Mini-Howtos?
If so, the claim is incorrect: some documents are missing.

Yup. Most Linux distros leave a lot of things running in a default
installation that the inexperienced user is probably unaware of.
I wish Linux vendors would leave all services OFF unless explicity
asked for by the person installing the software. That would force
folks to learn enough to set things up (or at least toggle them on)
by themselves.

When I tried Gnome for the first time with Window Maker, I didn't like

Let me, as a Gnome almost-hacker who's up to his knees into the CVS
tree prettifying the general appearance (I do the Gnome Icon Status
Reports) and translating messages tell you: We've come a long way
since the latest version, too.
Gnome 1.0.50 will be the best thing since sliced bread. Well, almost.

Usually I will run an application and just drag its icon from the bottom
of the screen to the dock and be done with it. After it is on the dock you
can right click on it and change a few settings if you prefer.
Is this what you were asking about?

You can do it that way. You can also use modules. (Not everything can be
done in modules, but most stuff that you can compile in or not, you can
also compile as a module instead and then load it at runtime, and unload
it again.)
Actually, I prefer the non-module variant. But I still do *some* stuff as
modules (for example, stuff I expect to use once every few months).

Well, I was exaggerating - slightly. Traditionally, availability of OS
source has been quite important for the choice of OS to use in CS, because
that's the only way you can have CS experimenters do OS experiments.
Which is why a number of OS developers gave source licenses to
universities even if they gave them to nobody else.

Never gonna happen.
Only specialized appliances can be even that simple. And the specialized
compuiters are already there, it's just that consumers don't think of them
as "computers".
Game consoles, for example. Telephone switches. Stuff like that.
A truly generic computer, OTOH, is only going to become *more* complex.

A "dvorak keybord" probably sends the right keycode anyway so you
won't need to change anything. You can get a normal keyboard and use
loadkeys and xmodmap to set it for dvorak....I even pulled the keys
out and put them in a dvorak layout....they are auneven but it doesn't

Hi
After trying a while in settting up a link with ISP, I'm about to give up.
Everything goes well until the pppd tries to negotiate with the server.
Itcomes up with this error in the /var/log/messages:
Sep 5 17:56:49 Earth kernel: ppp_proto_ccp rcvd=0 code=6 flags=f01004f

The timeout occurs no matter how even though I set lcp-max-configure to 50.
It says 'CCP' instead of 'lcp', but nowhere in the documentation can I find
anything regarding to CCP.
I run Suse 6.0 kernel 2.2.5.
Any ideas?
