Wrong. Proof is, there is *nothing* about structure in plain TeX.

Again, this is just a matter of habit. I, for one, have always used 
styles in my WordPerfect documents.

This does not depend on the fact that it's a wordprocessor, but on the 
fact that all wordprocessors currently have a WYSISTBWYG (what you see 
is supposed to be what you get) real-time interface.

But that's just because LaTeX is a "style sheet" (ok, macro format) 
for the typesetting engine TeX.

The complexity of this depends on the wordprocessor. Also, if you want 
to customize LaTeX, you have to go through very complex acrobatics.

Again, this depends on the wordprocessor. And, you have to code in 
LaTeX too. As for the easiness of the programming language, I never 
used VBA, luckly, but PerfectScript (WordPerfect's pl) is not harder 
than TeX.

I do agree that wordprocessors are easier to use initially, but show 
their limits as soon as you want to "go further". But still, how many 
users want to "go further"? (And "going further" with LaTeX is not 
that easy either. Also, it often require knowledge of the underlying 
system to know how and where to install packages, etc).

Again, this depends on the wordprocessor. WordPerfect's equation 
editor is much more TeX-like and easy to use. The real problem is the 
need to "switch contexts" every time you edit an equation.

I suggest you not do that, and that you not set /var/log/messages to
-rw-r--r-- because these files can get secret information in them that
you do not wish not root users to access.

As a palliative (that I do not recommend), add yourself to the root
group. Or consider the sudo command (I never use it, but it is
designed for things like this).

Subject: Two identical HDUs, but Linux disaggrees
Date: 15 Jun 2001 04:05:59 -0700

Hi,

I have the following problem: I have the following IDE-setup:

ALI15X3: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 78
ALI15X3: chipset revision 193
ALI15X3: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
    ide0: BM-DMA at 0xd000-0xd007, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:DMA
    ide1: BM-DMA at 0xd008-0xd00f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio
hda: WDC AC26400R, ATA DISK drive
hdb: IBM-DHEA-36480, ATA DISK drive
hdc: IBM-DHEA-36480, ATA DISK drive
hdd: CD-ROM 40X/AKU, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
hda: 12594960 sectors (6449 MB) w/512KiB Cache, CHS=784/255/63, (U)DMA
hdb: 12692736 sectors (6499 MB) w/476KiB Cache, CHS=790/255/63,

hdc: 12692736 sectors (6499 MB) w/476KiB Cache, CHS=12592/16/63,
UDMA(33)
hdd: ATAPI 40X CD-ROM drive, 128kB Cache, DMA

For some reason, although /dev/hdb and /dev/hdc are identical HDUs,
their specs differ. However, @ my BIOS, I specified them both to LBA,
which resulted in the same CHS-setup. Because I want to do striping
(RAID), I will run into trouble with this.

Questions: Why is Linux doin' this? How can I make them identical from
Linux-point-of-view?

I'm using kernel 2.4.4.

It *might* come back if you re-insert the CD otherwise, yes you need to
hit the reset button.  THIS IS NOT LINUX'S FAULT.  It is operator
ERROR! The *cure* is to NOT to physically remove (eject) mounted file
systems.  Your CD-ROM is brain dead -- you *should NOT be able* to eject
the CD if it is mounted (unless you are having way too much fun
unbending paper clips and sticking them in the hole in the front of your
CD-ROM drive).

Have you configured your mouse in X?   It should go direct to the

Don't run gpm when you're running XFree4, the mouse handling has improved 
immensly, and is much faster.  If you set up X to receive mouse input from 
a gpm pipe, you are loosing the advantages of the new mouse driver.

For scroll wheel, you simply have to set up the buttons 4 and 5 for Z-axis 
mapping.

Either run X or gpm for mouse handling, but not both.  That means if run 
level 5 is the graphical one, remove gpm links in the rc?.d directories, 
checkconfig(8) should help you with this.

I stay up on kernels and ISTR I saw that in one of the 2.4.2 updates.
It wasn't something I fellt I could fix, so I just waited for the next
2.4.2-ac## patch, which did fix it.

I'd do two things.

1. goto rawhide and get the newest revision number of the whole gcc
family, this included libstdc++ and cpp.  Its much more stable.  Its
about 6 files to get it all.

2. Goto kernel.org and get the basic 2.4.5 sources, and maybe even the
-ac14 patch for it.  The reasoning being that since 2.4.2, huge amounts
of the code have been subjected to the Stanford Code Verifier, catching
the things that USED to cause the compiler to output warnings by the
megabyte.  The whole thing builds with amazingly few of those going by
today.

Cheers, Gene

The disc is reporting this geometry. Linux does not use the BIOS for this.
You could still try to enter a user specified geometry in the BIOS. (I doubt
it will work)
A better option is to provide the geometry in your lilo.conf:

IIRC append="hdb=790,255,63 hdc=790,255,63"
But read the lilo documentation first

Right, I've kind of gotten this working. I discovered the -v switch to
ldapadd, which tells you where in a multi-dn ldif file the problem is.

I've got valid entries for dn: dc=solid-state-logic,dc=com and for dn:
dc=begbroke,dc=solid-state-logic,dc=com. I find that I can add users
directly beneath this (i.e. dn: cn=Alex
Page,dc=begbroke,dc=solid-state-logic,dc=com).

My trouble now is that I can't add an organisationalUnit between my
user entries and the lowest dc. I'd really like to address all the
users in the form of dn: cn=Alex
Page,ou=it,dc=begbroke,dc=solid-state-logic,dc=com

My entry for the ou=it looks like this:

dn: ou=it,dc=begbroke,dc=solid-state-logic,dc=com
ou: it
objectclass: organisationalunit
objectclass: top
description: IT Support Unit

According to http://ldap.hklc.com this should be all I need, but I get
my old "Object class violation" error when I try to ldapadd this
entry.

Can you only have ou's beneath organisations? If so, how do I sort my
users within the DNS-based hierarchy?
