Actually that is control caret - up-arrow is typically associated
with a keypad/arrow controls and is usually an escape sequence
though Wyse 50's programmed the left-arrow to be Control H as well
as backspace to be control H, and that broke such things as spread
sheets which expected both keyb to generated different codes.
control ^ (aka shift 6) generates 0036/0x1e/30d/ - or 'rs'. Don't
have a manual delineating the abbreviations - but the control
shift 6 would be used in the original Xenix (as I recall - and I'm
prepared to be corrected) to kill a program and dump core. That
was one of the few ways to get out of a locked Xenix program.
OTOH I once did some work on an interactive videodisk application
where the ONLY input devices were light-pen and mouse. That surely
elminated a lot keyboard problems :-)

the disadvantages of both are that they are memory hungry and that they
try to make linux easier than it is. Start without them using some simple
window manager like twm or wm2 and once you know the system feel free to
make your life easier - I use tkdesk now :)

How can I implement a more flexible printer access

use the printer, while only some user from another
domain is allowed to print.
There are others lp daemon around?

When using the mtools, *don't* mount the floppy.
And your kernel of course needs to have fat support compiled in, but I think
all distros have their kernel built this way.

No it doesn't.
Install from source, configure using:
./configure --prefix=~/kde
then
make && mkdir ~/kde && make install.
You only need kdelibs and kdenetwork, AFAIK. You don't even need
kdenetwork if you get kmail from http://devel-home.kde.org/~kmail

If you really need to repartition the partition the drive I would do one of
two things, either backup the partitions between /dev/hda6 and /dev/hda11
to one of your Linux partitions (use cp -av /source /destination then
when you are finished you may need to restore your boot records). Then I
would resize or move thos partitions down 106 MB on the drive and create a
new root partiion towards the end of the drive (along with your other Linux
partitions). If you keep you linux partitions together, and you Windows
partitions together then it will make it much easier on you in the future
when you need resize partitions in the future. If you need more help just
send me an E-Mail and I will be happy to give you more specific
instructions.

The PCI 2.1 spec says all PCI devices should be able to share IRQs. PCI
has exactly 4 (count-em FOUR) INT# lines on the bus (INTA#-INTD#), and the
PCI spec is very clear as to how these are allocated. It is up to BIOS
writiers/hardware designers to route the right INT# lines to the right
devices and set up IRQs right. Because you can certainly have more than 4
PCI devices using interrupts, you can safely assume that the spec accounts
for it. Now, if the OS or device isn't happy about shared interrupts, it
is a different story. Linux, however, does (see struct irqaction in
interrupt.h).

ISA cards have no standard for IRQs. If they are both PCI, I'd

this is common sense - every interrupt, you need to check all devices on

They all do. For RedHat it is on the *second* CD (a complete RedHat
distribution is a two CD set). Note: for most of the $1.89 single CDs,
the CD only has the binaries -- 90% of the time most people don't need
all of the sources. All of the sources are available for downloading
from the various distribution sites. Generally, most people only need
random selected source packages and most "experts" just get the binary
CD (either by downloading the ISO image or buying the $1.89 single CDs)
and then download the source packages on a case-by-case basis. Note:
the kernel itself includes sources on the *binary* CD.
Generally, if you buy a boxed set, the source CD will be included as
part of the set.
*Some* of the distributions include *commercial* packages -- sources for
these packages are probably NOT included (I.e. Corel Linux includes
WordPerfect and RedHat includes Netscape). These packages won't have
corresponding sources on the source CD. But there should be sources for
everything else.

Subject: dump and restore autoloader support
Date: Tue, 02 May 2000 11:54:37 -0600
Are there any specific instructions you can give dump fordoing
autoloader support. I have an HP auotoloader that holds 6 4mm tapes.
Just wondering if I can set it so that it will run multiple cron jobs
and do backups on several machines in one night without any manual
assistance.
Dump and restore work just fine when one tape is selected and loaded,
but I'd like it to rotate through the other tapes as well. I know
ufsdump does this, but I'd like to know if the latest dump, rpm release
dump-0.4b15-1 running Red Hat Linux 6.1 on a Athlon 600 with 128 MBs of
RAM.
Thanks.

Yes. Run ucd-snmpd on the machine(s) you want to monitor, and mon on the

I apologize - I guess I didn't explain my problem real well.
I installed SuSE 6.4 using their YaST2 tool. This tool nicely automates
the install procedure. At the end of the install, you have to log in to
the KDE desktop. This worked fine and everything seemed functional. I
then exited out of KDE and did a 'shutdown'.
But...after I re-booted and attempted to log in again, the KDE desktop did
not show any icons (as if my system configuration was lost) and my mouse
was useless (note that after the install the mouse worked and the icons
were present). I was forced to power off/power on as I couldn't figure
out how to "gracefully" get out of KDE using just the keyboard.
I haven't tried to login again for fear the same thing will happen.

less one required for the cascade (bringing 8 to 15) and less another
due to legacy FPU exception brain damage. this makes 14 possible.
there's the fixed allocations from the beginning of time,
subtract a timer, a keyboard, a mouse, a clock.
and then we have IO-APIC....
