??Bugs en Netscape desde hace mil versiones y los mismos!!
Ya empiezo a dudar que sea problema del Netscape, porque siempre pasa lo mismo en todas las versiones de Netscape que han pasado por mi máquina... Por favor agradecería confirmación de otra gente y si es solo problema mío a ver si alguien me puede ayudar a solucionarlo por favor, os cuento... Cuando abro una página con formularios, en la cual hay campos de todo tipo, por ejemplo uno de ellos es un campo de selección entre varias opciones, y otro es un campo de texto, donde se escribe a mano, si por ejemplo despliego el campo de selecciones para seleccionar una opción entre varias (por ejemplo para indicar tu año de nacimiento, que sale un menu desplegable con un montón de fechas, o para seleccionar un pais de origen), el netscape ya no me deja escribir en el campo de texto, pasa en TODOS los formularios a los que he accedido, en todas las versiones de Netscape para Linux que he usado, y por ejemplo si hay dos campos de selección de opción (si pinchas en el campo sale un punto negro redondo) y a la derecha dos campos de texto, depende del campo de opción que pinches podrás escribir en teoría en uno de los campos de texto (así está hecho el formulario donde he probado eso), pues bien, da igual la opción que escojas porque no puedes escribir en ninguno de los dos campos de texto. Ejemplos: Para el bug de selección de Fecha o país entre una lista en un menú, eso os lo podeis encontrar en cualquier página, pero en la que recuerdo que me ha pasado porque accedo muy a menudo es en la página de la www.sblive.com cuando voy a bajarme drivers y sale un formulario para que indique mis datos. Para el segundo error en formularios que os he dicho, podeis comprobarlo en la página de CajaMadrid en la página para hacer login en el apartado de Banca Electrónica. Bueno, a ver si en Netscape solucionan esto o me decís que me puede estar pasando si realmente ese bug no existe. Un saludo Daniel PD: Estos mismos formularios los he probado con otras plataformas y no me ha ocurrido nunca.
Consulta glibc
Hola a todos, Resulta que tengo una cuestión sobre Debian y me he decidido a preguntarosla sin haberme subscrito a la lista. Espero que me perdonéis pero no tengo el acceso a Internet que yo quisiera y no puedo subscribirme porque tengo una conexión algo lenta. Resulta que tengo un Debian 2.1r2 (pero no lo tengo aquí!, estoy desplazado a 600 Km. de mi casa!) y necesito obtener una nueva versión de glibc para que me funcione el JDK 1.2 pre v2 que me han pasado. Me gustaría obtener el paquete por Internet (por lento que sea) y guardarlo en un disquete y llevármelo a casa este fin de semana. Mis preguntas son: 1. ¿Qué versión de glibc usa Debian 2.1r2? (Yo necesito la glibc 2.07.19 o mayor) 2. ¿Puedo instalarme una nueva glibc sin hacer muchos cambios en el sistema? ¿Cómo afectaría el cambio al resto de los paquetes? 3. ¿Cuál es la última versión de glibc para Debian y dónde puedo conseguirla? (he intentado www.debian.org, buscando el paquete glibc pero lo único que obtengo es la documentación). Espero que pueda enviaros esta consulta sin haberme subscrito. Si no os importa por favor enviadme una respuesta por correo electrónico. Os agradezco enormemente vuestra ayuda al respecto. Muchísimas gracias a todos, Un saludo, Antonio Vieiro --- Get free personalized email at http://www.iname.com

Acelerando el Fetchmail
Hola chavalotes!! Bueno, muchos protestamos siempre de lo lento que es el Fetchmail cuando baja el correo. Es un tema que se ha mencionado varias veces en la lista y nadie parece encontrar una solución clara, pero casi todos os habeis fijado en que el `popclient' o el `fetchpop' son muchísimo más rápidos. A mi es un tema que me mosquea bastante, y sobre todo me ha mosqueado ahora a vuelta del verano, resulta que tengo 1.200 mensajes en mi buzón (jo, los de la lista no teneis vacaciones nunca) y he hechado más de 2 horas y sólo he bajado 400 mensajes. Así no voy a terminar nunca. Necesito algo rápido. Antes de mandar a paseo el Fetchmail se me ocurrió hacer experimentos, para ver de que manera se puede acelerar. Pensé que el problema puede estar en la distribución de correo. Hice varias pruebas con distintos sistemas de distribución: mda deliver xmanoel - muy lento (donde pongo deliver, poned `procmail', y será aún más lento) mda cat - xmanoel - rapidísimo (pero ni se os ocurra usarlo, que no se crea un mailbox) a través del MTA - rapidez muy, muy decente. Creo que el problema viene de que el Fetchmail es un programa muy serio. Antes de bajar el siguiente mensaje espera a que la distribución de correo sea exitosa, con lo que si la distribución es muy sencilla (como el caso segundo) va como una moto. Si hay que pasar por filtros (procmail y deliver), bloquear el buzón, abrirlo y cerrarlo, la cosa se ralentiza muchísimo. Entonces alguien se preguntará ¿y porque si usas el MTA se acelera? Muchos usamos tambien el procmail y el deliver para repartir el correo localmente. Yo como muchos, pensé... ¿si va a pasar por el deliver, para que meterlo primero por el MTA y luego pasarselo al programa? Pues parece que no. Los programas de distribución y filtrado estan hechos para lo que están y los MTA están hechos para trabajar `de verdad'. Por lo que he visto, los MTA intentan facilitar la llegada de mensajes entrantes. Entonces, en vez de hacer esperar al emisor, aceptan el mensaje, lo meten en una cola y intentan enviarlo. Luego si no se puede distribuir ya se verá Te mandan el típico mensajito de error al emisor. (Pero el mensaje no se pierde, se intenta enviar varias veces). Por eso el MTA es más rapido con el Fetchmail. El Fetchmail se pone a meter y meter mensajes nuevos y va como un cañón. Luego es el MTA el que va distribuyendo el mensaje. Para el usuario la diferencia no es apreciable, y todo funciona más rápido. EN RESUMEN La lentitud del Fetchmail bajando correo no es culpa del programa, si no de los programas que se usan para meter el correo en los buzones. Por tanto, para acelerarlo debes acelerar la distribución de correo. La mejor manera de hacer esto último es usar tu MTA (sendmail, smail, EXIM,.) para distribuir el correo. El Fetchmail hace esto por defecto, o sea que no tendrás que decir nada. Si tenías algo como esto en tu fichero de configuración: poll pop3.server with proto pop3: user xmanoel password ### mda procmail -u xmanoel; Cambialo por poll pop3.server with proto pop3: user xmanoel password ### is xmanoel here; Si aún así crees que esto va lento... pues entonces la culpa puede ser de tu MTA, itntenta conseguir que se acelere la distribución de mensajes. Pero eso ya es algo que debes preguntar a otro... -- Saudos: ose[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Vigo/Galicia/España) http://pagina.de/xmanoel/ http://w3.to/mikkeli/ 09/08 Anton Dvorak born in Nelahozeves, Czechoslovakia, 1841 09/08 Ron Pigpen McKernan (Grateful Dead) is born in San Bruno,

Debieras tener un fichero /etc/shells con los shells considerados como validos en tu sistema.

re: re: Re: init id S
ttyS2 is there, plugged into the pcmcia slot. It is removeable, so I guess I should make this a mountable device? Wait a minute: wvdial finds the modem as ttyS2, but the boot process finds only ttyS1 with a 16550A UART Now, I did go through and setup serial support in this install (it was a clean install to see how the installer copes with my scsi cdrom) and now I'm not getting the ttyS0 is a 8850 (? not sure I remember) that i used to get.

laptop/docking configuration
Okay- This removeable modem at ttyS2 brings up some other questions and ponderables: (And damn again, I've just realized that the mwave modem doesn't work unser linux, but is it detected?)(PS- anyone know ehre to get the cables for pcmcia modems?) I've got a laptop with a formatted 512 meg hd- this has a fairly light swap (about 30 meg) and slink. I've got a docking station with a scsi interface, a scsi drive partitioned into another 40 meg of swap/472 meg of ext2, a scsi cdrom, and some bonus dealies like keyboard/mouse ports and such. The question is how to configure all of this- Step one is the kernel: There appears to be lots that is unneeded in there- like pci and that stupid built in WD7000 scsi card that mmy boot-up can never initialize; isdn, eata_dma (???), and eata_pio (???) Make menuconfig doesn't do a lot here, I can't find some of this stuff at all. Guess I'm RTFM'ing for another couple of weeks One kernel, or two? I could, I suppose, have LILO setup to allow booting from the kernel on hda2, and put one on sda2 (in the docking station) for when I'm docked and have more swap enabled, as well as built in scsi tailored to the system. Or can I do this fine with one kernel and a script to run when I'm docked? (And what about filesystems? How well will it work to put the majority of my docs on sda2 and link them to the directories for the rest of the docs? I'm a bit lost on this one.) Step two is the devices. I need to have setup for an eventual network card (in the docking station), various pcmcia devices (PS anyone know how the Click! works under Linux?), the scsi, and keyboard/mouse. With one kernel, I have to have a lot of scripting done to load everything when I'm docked Step Three is software. But I'm not even close to that point yet. ta, Koyote

Hi, I get no response from the mutt mailing list. Hope someone can help me out here. Thanks. Shao. Hi, I am using mutt to read all the messages in ~/mail. When I save a message from a person say [EMAIL PROTECTED] I want to mutt to give me a default filename like this: ~/Mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED] If I only set the save_address, then mutt will default the filename to ~/mail/[EMAIL PROTECTED] So how do I let mutt to choose a different folder I want when saving the msg.

Re: xterm-menus not working
On Sun, 1999-09-05 21:50:52 +0200, Johann Spies wrote: Thanks Keith. That did it. After changing my .Xdefaults to Xterm.vt.geometry in stead of using * the menus are usable. In which documentation did you find that? Well, actually it wasn't so much the documentation as the experimentation that helped focus in on what was needed. After installing X, I immediately customized the xterm to take advantage of the full screen that was available, but soon encountered the same problem that you did. After some abortive attempts to solve the problem, I backed off to an absolutely minimal X configuration: just starting X from a console root login with xinit(1), without an .xinitrc file in root's home directory (and, of course, without starting xdm). The resulting spartan xterm, while its geometry was only 80x24, at least had the virtue that its menus worked as advertised in xterm's manual page. So that yielded the insight that there was nothing wrong with the xterm software or X itself, but rather something was wrong with the way I had customized things. Then it was just a matter of trial and error to find the problem, using mainly the X(1) and xterm(1) man pages for guidance. I might add, though, that Branden Robinson has been doing a great job of providing some much needed supplemental documentation in the FAQ's he's been generating within the debian package. Another great resource for X is still the X Window System User's Guide published by O'Reilly. Although it only covers up through Release 5 (1993), at the user level not a whole lot has changed. There's really a lot to X! Keith

From what I understand, you don't have a proper dns setup. Check out /etc/resolv.conf. resolv.conf: search domain.com nameserver your_primary_dns_server_IP nameserver your_secondary_dns_server_IP If you want to install potato, make your /etc/apt/sources.list look like this: deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free deb http://non-us.debian.org/ unstable non-US/main or use any of the debian mirrors ... and you just need 7 floppies to install base system, apt-get/dselect does the rest.

Re: xconsole transparency
I know how to get wterm to become transparent, but what I should have said was how can wterm's transparency and other options be applied to xconsole. I'm looking for some way to alter the command /usr/X11R6/bin/xconsole -notify . -file /dev/xconsole to incorporate wterm. Thanks for the suggestions though dyer. i use eterm for this but i believe that wterm works the same way. you can see a screenshot of my desktop (or an old one :) at: http://www.spack.org/geek/desktop-wm2.gif to see if i understand right what you are trying to do. with eterm the command i run is (i run it in my ~/.xinitrc file): (sleep 10; Eterm -O -W -F-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal-*-*-80-*-*-c-*-iso646.1991-irv -M /dev/null -S black -f yellow --unfocused-scrollbar-color black -L 512 -C -x -g 187x6+0+0) i found that the sleep 10 was necessary so that the background would be set before the console window pop'd up. with eterm it is the -C option which makes it work like xconsole. i believe that wterm has the same option. from the wterm manpage: -C Intercept console messages. so it shouldn't be too hard to make it behave in the same way. adam.

Thanks to all who have replied. Actually what motivated my question was the advocacy of the procmailer Jari Aalto: please see his http://www.procmail.org/jari/pm-tips.html (`pm' here and below is for `procmail'), in particular, its 1.1 for its examples of the `@(#)' identifier (in addition to the normative RCS `$...$'), and 1.5 for its explicit advocacy of the `what' program, *in-addition-to* the RCS `ident' program To provide a self-contained reference for what we are talking about, here are excerpts from the text version `pm-tips.txt' of the html page, first for 1.1: .@(#) $Id: pm-tips.txt,v 1.74 1999/04/23 14:45:05 jaalto Exp $ .$Keywords: procmail sendmail formail mail UBE UCE spam filter $ .$URL: http://www.procmail.org/jari/ $ .$Contactid: [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ .$FileServer: send mail to Contactid with subject send help $ .$UrlLinksLastChecked: 1999-04-30 $ .@(#) This is a procmail tips page: a collection of procmail recipes, .@(#) instructions, howtos. The document also contains URL pointers to .@(#) the procmail mailing list and sites that fight against Internet .@(#) UBE. You will also find many other interesting subjects that .@(#) discuss about internet email: headers, mime and RFCs. There is then for 1.5: Please also familiarise yourself to unix what(1) and GNU RCS ident(1), if you have those commands in your system. It is important that you mark interesting text to these tools so that someone can get an overview of your supplied files % what FILES - Print @( # ) tags % ident FILES - Print $ $ keywords Further, if one retrieves his file pm-code.zip, one finds nearly 50 source files commented using these conventions. Given this extensive use of `unix what(1)', and wondering how much else code is out there documented in a similar fashion, I think it is a reasonable question to ask what is the `open source status' of a tool to take advantage of those documentation conventions. As to whatis, whatis is to display manual page descriptions according to its man page, thus something from what Jari is requiring. As to grep, I suppose grep can do something reasonable in this regard, but in consideration of how long grep has been around, I suspect `what' must have had some added value to make it worth having an independent existence. Clearly this isn't the most critical lacuna for debian, or for anyone else, but I thought it might be worth bringing up. Thank you for your time. Keith

It's annoying, but I haven't yet found the problem, and I don't use the laptop enough to diligently search for an answer. I did post on this list about it some weeks ago, but didn't get an answer. (I'm not trying to get an answer now either; just wanted to let Koyote know my experience in case it offers him a clue.)

Thank you very much for all your answers. I didn't imagine this as hard as
it is and didn't see the dangerous aspect of it.
As a result, I will wait a bit before beginning so difficult and dangerous
software like this.
But your answers were very helpful.

Something more useful should be an option to apt-get a pacakge based on a
filename. Something like the apt-get install 'virtual package'.
For example, we can do:
# apt-get install mail-transport-agent
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Package mail-transport-agent is a virtual package provided by:
zmailer-ssl 2.99.50.s19-2
zmailer 2.99.50.s19-2
ssmtp 2.33-1
smail 3.2.0.102-2
sendmail 8.9.3-3
postfix 0.0.19990627-6
exim 3.03-1
You should explicly select one to install.
E: Package mail-transport-agent has no installation candidate
So why not having :
apt-get install /usr/sbin/sendmail
which should return something similar.
OK, this would add the Contents-arch.gz file to download between update,
but, if this optional, it can be useful (may be an option in apt?).
More than that, it can be very easy to do.
gzip -dc Contents-$(ARCH) | grep $FILENAME | awk '{ print $2 }' \
cut -d\, -f1- --output-delimiter=' '
will give me with ARCH=i386 and FILENAME=usr/bin/sendmail:
mail/exim mail/sendmail-wide mail/zmailer mail/smail mail/ssmtp mail/sendmail
manipulate it a little, feed it to (g)dialog --menu, and call apt-get
with the answer and that's it.
For sure, it's not the only way to do it. Ameliorations and other methods
are left in exercices ;)

Internet News Scheme
Hi, Can anyone suggest some sort of scheme for setting up an operable news reader and server? I am quite new to *nix in general and don't fully grasp all the concepts to setting up a functioning service. I have tried 'innd' and found it quite a handful, as well as 'newsx' for a read-er which didn't work at all. Perhaps there is an easier way to get started in all of this? Any help, even of the most general kind, would be appreciated. thanks, brian.

Re: Internet News Scheme
bwarsing, please word-wrap at 76 characters or so... You might want to look into both newscache and leafnode, if your news-needs are minimal. If your news-needs are not minimal, slog through innd. :) Most folks seem to enjoy tin or trn or slrn or rn or nn for their text-based newsreaders. You can use netscape as your newsreader, though it really works better as a web browser. :) Both gnome and kde offer their own newsreaders I think...

Databases
Hi, ive been trying out MySQL and PostgreSQL on debian too see which I will use for my database projects. Can anyone recommend: 1. Documentation / HOWTOs or whatever on how to set these up with web interfaces - expecially about how to do so as a database beginner and not compromise the security of your whole system:). 2. What web/software client interface method is best to use and why? - The two clients in unstable/misc seem to be non-free and ide rather use Open Source stuff naturally. Thanks, Timothy

Boot hangs at 'Starting PCMCIA services: modules' on ThinkPad i1476
Dear friends, I've installed a dual-boot system (hamm/that other OS) on a brand-new ThinkPad i1476 without any trouble, but the first boot hangs on Starting PCMCIA services: modules I'm suspecting that the built-in Lucent Win Modem is wrecking havoc, but don't have a clue as to how to fix this. I'd appreciate any sug- gestions. BTW, I'll try with slink tomorrow, but am not very optimistic that that will solve the problem. Please reply directly as I don't subscribe just yet, Haven't figured out how to split incoming mail with Outlook Express ... doubt if I'll ever bother when Debian boots OK.

scsi advice
Hi all, Just need some advice/input. I have just bought a HP scanjet 6200c and am looking around for a scsi card for it. The somewhat pricey Adaptec U2W seems to work very well with linux so thats what I have in mind at this moment. Anyone has any suggestions if this will be a good buy. At the moment only the scanner will be connected but I will probably use it in the future to add for example scsi hard disk. Best regards Joakim Svensson
