Hi ,advancer:
I had been use more than 5 days to work about this question :

hope can find (or write) a program
to remove some binary code form
static library which the OS(linux)'s
program not used ,to reduce the size of linux.

the gzip, strip had been used, but I hope to make it smaller.

u can use nm libc.a ,u will find there are many *.o's group
when my system is embedded in some chip or rom , some
*.o in libc.a or other *.a will not used in the future.

At this kind of situation,we can remove them use    ar -d XXX.o  XX.a
to reduce the static library.

make sure you use the /sbin/lilo -L command after installation

OTOH, I don't see any really good reason to turn it off.  It runs at
startup and goes away; I don't have to reboot often enough for that to
be a problem!

Somebody else suggested chkconfig; that works fine, but being old and
lazy I've started doing things like that from control-panel (I'll bet
there's some really *ugly* history behind the existence of both
control-panel and linuxconf!).

I'd agree -- but having named my last few projects after a composer
(see, if you take Graphical Graph Grammar Editor (two dimensional)
that gives you GGGEb, which sounds like the opening of Beethoven's
Fifth Symphony, so it was called Ludwig), a character in a movie
(Altaira, from ``Forbidden Planet'' since Robby the Robot was
introduced in that movie, and it was a robot control language) and a
science fiction writer (Isaac, since Asimov coined the term
``robotics'' and it was another robot control language), I'd be a
hypocrite...

Hello,(thanks for the reply ROB)

Ok,
/etc/services =

9/udp-sink null | systat    11/tcp-users | Daytime    13/tcp | Daytime

| chargen 19/tcp - ttytst source
(hope you can figure out how i seperated that)

and my inetd.conf file is pretty much only one line.  There is a bunch of
lines that look like they deal with the above names like discard-chargen
etc. that are #'d out.  But from what i've read i only need to add this line

inetd.conf=
ftp    stream    tcp    nowait    root    /usr/sbin/tcpd    in.ftpd    -l -a

then i did a killall -HUP inetd and tryed to ftp to local host.  I tried a
reboot also just for the sake of sayin i did.

when i
ftp localhost , it
connects , waits 5 seconds then says ,,
421 service not availible / remote server closed connection..

Hope thats not to much description :)

1. Don't crosspost so much... Netiquette.

2. I had exactly the same problem configuring exactly the same card on one 
of my systems. I ran the setup again (this was under RedHat), and it went 
through, and the card runs fine. (It crashed, and I started it again right 
after, and it worked.)

*Some* terminal emulators can be configured to send different ASCII
sequences when they receive an X BackSpace symbol.  Now that I have a
better understanding (thanks in part to you) of how X clients interact
with the keyboard, I am now leaving the backspace key alone rather
than redefining it to send the X Delete symbol in my personal
environment.  This makes the backspace key work the normal way in most
X clients, but causes unmodified terminal emulators to see ASCII 8
when it is pressed.  Conveniently, xterm can be told to send an ASCII
127 by using this X resource:

 XTerm.vt100.translations: #override <Key>BackSpace: string(0x7f)

Likewise, SGI's xwsh terminal emulator responds similarly to this
X resource:

 XWsh*keyMapping0: BackSpace(any): send("\177");

There may be ways to get the same effect from other terminal
emulators, but I have the luxury of not having to use them.  A couple
of X terminal emulators I found that have no way to change the
interpretation of the backspace key is dxterm (part of Compaq's Tru64
UNIX) and CDE's dtterm (as shipped by Sun).  There are undoubtably
others.

I now have an imperfect solution to the problem of erasing characters
that is different from the imperfect one I used before.  This one lets
the backspace key work with the X terminal emulators I use, and also
with most other X clients, so I think I'll be happy with it.

Go into kppp setup and edit your account setup. Under the IP tab uncheck

Subject: monitor settings
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2000 03:37:32 GMT

I am having trouble with the display in Mandrake 7.1.  Everytime I
install Mandrake, it never sets my XF86Config file up correctly.
Slackware sets it up right.

But, anyway, my display is too small for my monitor.  xvidtune will not
let me resize it to take advantage of the whole screen.  It lets me get
it bigger, but not big enough.

Question:  Is this a factor of my monitor settings or my video card
settings?  How do I go about rectifying this?

Thanks,
Darren

Apparently, Mandrake and Slackware have different default XF86Config files.
Not to worry, you can get a new (probably) optimal one by running 
XF86Setup or Xconfigurator. Once you have that done (back up your old config
first) you can run xvidtune. Your "video card settings" will then be better,
and so xvidtune's minor tweaks ought to be enough. BTW, you monitor's
Vertical Size, Vertical Position, Horizontal... etc. controls do the same
thing xvidtune is doing. Choose your poison. :-)

DO NOT CROSSPOST TO SO MANY GROUPS !!!

There are a lot of people that will not respond to you due to your
cross-posting!!

You'll need to change your XF86Config file, specifically the lines
containing FontPath "Path/To/Font".
The first FontPath line should be /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ 
There must be a fonts.alias file in there, that describes the `fixed`
fonts

Subject: RH6.2 and wierd BackSpace behavior
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2000 06:30:41 GMT

So I've got RedHat 6.2 loaded onto one of my servers. When I connect to
it from a WinDoze machine running eXceed, using an REXEC of xterm,
backspace doesn't work.

Both it and the delete key issue <esc>[3~.

When I do the same on a Mandrake 6.1 system, backspace works fine,
although delete does the <esc>[3~ thing.

If I telnet from Mandrake to redhat, it works ok.

Renaming /etc/skel and /etc/inputrc have no effect.

Help!

Subject: Can't make sshd work with inetd
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2000 06:45:56 GMT

I'm running RH 6.1, and I can't get my ssh daemon
to work with inetd.

Here's the lines in /etc/services:
ssh             22/tcp
ssh             22/udp

And now /etc/inetd.conf
ssh     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/sbin/sshd2 -i

When I SIGHUP inetd and try to make an SSH
connection using SecureCRT on a Windows box, it
just sits there forever. However, starting sshd at
the command line causes everything to work fine.

Any suggestions?
Thanks.
