Hi all,
It looks like I have POP3 and IMAP4 working now. I can use the following
command from the console of my Linux box and send myself an email: # "mail
-v
[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I can then go over to a Windows 98 system using "Outlook
Express" and retrieve my mail via both POP3 and IMAP4.
However, I still can't send myself an email from outside my Linux box (i.e.
from my hotmail account) The mail just never gets to me. Any ideas? Thanks
for
any help.
Lamar

Has anyone had a problem with their keyboard bell gone missing when
upgrading to RH7.1? This is on a work PC that just uses a keyboard
speaker, which would give me the ctrl-G bell before (using RH 6.2 or
RH 6.0). I've tried starting and stopping the sound server, which probably
doesn't apply to this. Using Gnome with Sawfish. Any tips to get
it back? (I've also turned on the sound through the session settings,
but it doesn't seem to help.)

Actualy it is looking for a FQDN, that is Fully Qualified Domain Name,
or a name with multiple parts separated by periods. That name realy
ought to be your poblic and officially registered domain name, but
sendmail won't check that part.
Some distributions make an alias localhost.localdomain for localhost
so sendmail can start without complaints.

Becuase there is in general no way to do this that will boot and
detect with all possible combinations of hardware. This is because
the probe for nonexistent device A may well freeze a system containing
device B. The FreeBSD GENERIC kernel has very careful ordering of ISA
ethernet probes for exactly this reason.
And have you ever actually seen how badly this works in Windows?

Subject: [ANN] Static error analyser Wasp 3.0 for Linux
Date: Fri, 08 Jun 2001 15:03:06 +0700
SUBJECT
The static error analyser Wasp 3.0 is released for Linux.
URL
http://www.waspsoft.com/
WHAT IS NEW IN Wasp 3.0
- This is the first Wasp version for Linux.
Previous Wasp versions were released for Windows 95/NT, OS/2,
and SunSparc for Java and Modula-2 programs.
- Wasp 3.0 for Java is an order of magnitude faster
than previous Wasp version 2.11.
Memory consumption reduced by a factor of 5.
- User interface simplified.
Wasp manual considerably extended and modified.
- Wasp strategy for big programs developed.
- Wasp now can use memory above 930Mb limit (or brk limit)
- Support for files more than 2Gb added for kernels which support
LFS interface (2.3.x, 2.4.x, 2.2.x with LFS patches, SuSE,
RedHat Enterprise Edition).
WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT
Wasp 3.0 for Windows 98/NT/2000 will be released shortly.
DESCRIPTION
The static error checker Wasp employs powerful data flow analysis
to detect subtle run-time errors and weak points in Java, Modula-2,
and Oberon-2 programs.
Some types of erroneous situations that Wasp is able to detect
in Java programs are listed below:
- usage of an uninitialised variable
- null pointer exception
- assignment of a variable whose value is never used
- impermissible cast of variable value of reference type
- unreachable branches in the if and switch statements and
in conditional expressions
- unreachable catch clauses
- method has no normal completion
- array index is out of bounds
- overflow (underflow) in arithmetic operators
- division by zero
- for or while statement repeats zero times
- etc.
For more information, please visit Wasp Home Page at:
http://www.waspsoft.com/
Lite version of Wasp 3.0 may be downloaded.

This is false. I dont know Debian, but FreeBSD autodetects hardware.
If i do ifconfig xl0 IP number, the xl driver will be loaded automatically.
Without having to edit an /etc/module.conf.
Redhat uses a special program kudzu which probes hardware at boot and
writes the modules.conf file. This program i think can be compiled on Debian
and used to the same goal.
But not knowing you have a 3Com card in your box is plain stupid. As for
Windows, i can say you i have spent hours to make it use a 3com card.
So saying that their autodetection is the best thing in the world is
also plain false.

If you are printing via a2ps, have a look at your a2psrc file. I needed
to alter the entry for Medium: A4. I decreased the height from the
default 842 to 828. This corrected the tendency for pages to print too
large.

ps2pdf is a great tool to convert PS files to PDF.
What we would like to have is printer definition in /etc/printcap that
"prints to PDF", i.e. which use a filter that converts the data on the
fly to PDF and save it somewhere on your disk, much like the PDF Writer
Windows printer driver.
Example of usage :
lpr myfile.ps -PPDFWriter
creates myfile.pdf in a special dir
I think this should be possible using the filter capabilities of lpd
(if:...) and the gs program

It worked well for me - and allowed me to resize and re-order the partitions

If you're currently in that same directory as the application you are trying
to execute
you need to execute your command preceded by a ./
e.g.
./xsetiathome
This is because your current directory . is not in your path and this is a
good thing...
so you need to specify the path ./$program
the . indicates your current dir.
HTH
cheers
FYI
I believe that you first need to start setiathome first with the -graphics
option, then launch xsetiathome.
./setiathome -graphics
./xsetiathome
You will probably want to background the setiathome process either by adding
a & to the end
of your command string or by typing ^z (crtl z)

I am now to linux.
I am writing an installer (rpm). Follow the www.rpm.org/how-to, I have
three sourced in the spec:
Source0: some.tar
Source1: another.tar
Source2: last.tar
all three .tars are in the /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/
however, when run "rpm -ba myspec.spec", only the source0 gets untared
to the BUILD dir.
I have read the doc, it seems very simple, and there is no need (or
just can not) specify how many sources I need.
I even tried to specify BuildRoot.
Any suggesion may help.

If you command line is sitting on

I had trouble umounting a drive recently
kept getting a" device busy " message,
becaused I had "cd'ed" too the drive to read

It's a line from a poorly translated game (ZeroWing) that was a

Seems it took on a life of its own, and someone created a whole pile of

Recently, I put SuSE 7.1 on a Dell Latitude with Neomagic nm256 sound
and had it freeze during boot so badly, I literally had to remove the
battery to reboot. Trolling around on Google immediately found plenty
of references from Alan Cox and others that there is apparently not a
lot of enthusiasm from Neomagic to help "offbeat" installs like Linux
from gitgo. Add to that, there seems to be three different microcodes
for nm256, and it's a wonder it works on any Latitude Linux at all.
This is NOT to say SuSE isn't extremely good about autodetection, and
its X setup is astonishingly good, IMO. Just that, as noted, it's not
reasonable to expect every combination of every piece of gear from an
often reluctantly supportive commercial environment to be coded, much
less tested, by a group of (largely) volunteer developers. They do it
well, but it's virtually impossible to cover all the bases, even with
a totally commercial development process like Windows (as noted).

You'll have to excuse me answering in English. I understand the
German (just about), but could not possibly write a useful answer.
If I understand you correctly, you have a 66MHz 80386 system, with
3.5" floppy but no CDROM, operating under Windows 3.1. You want to
load an internet capable version of Linux.
My suggestion is that you connect the machine serially to another
which is already internet capable or fitted with a CDROM drive,
and transfer an entire install set (overnight?) by Zmodem.
