Problemas con gEdit
Hola a todos. He empezado a utilizar el gEdit para ver y modificar alguno de mis archivos pero tengo un problema y es que, de vez en cuando (creo que al encontrar algún acento), borra parte del texto siguiente (de 5 a 10 caracteres). ¿Le ha pasado a alguien?, ¿cómo lo puedo solucionar? Y a propósito de esto, en vuestra opinión, ¿cual es el mejor (y, relativamente, más sencillo) procesador de texto de Linux? Especialmente para archivos de LaTeX (.tex). Muchas gracias y un saludo. Emilio.

RE: Nuevo documento sobre Server Side Includes
Mú bonito el documentito ;) Sólo una cosa: el tratamiento de idiomas tal y como tú lo haces (incluyendo una página u otra según el idioma elegido) creo que es mejor no hacerlo por SSI, sino con las extensiones de idiomas que trae (ya sea con multiviews http://www.apache.org/docs/content-negotiation.html (que es más eficiente ya que no obliga al apache a parsear el documento) o como viene explicado para en particular las páginas de errores http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/custom_errordocs.html). Ah y otra cosa, la convención que se suele seguir para páginas multiidioma es nombrepágina.html.idioma Otra cosa sería que usases SSI porque sólo hay partes de una página que quieras traducir, pero como en el ejemplo que pones prácticamente sustituyes toda la página puesss :) Vaaale, vaaale que sólo lo hagas a modo de ejemplo, pero te lo digo por si no se te había ocurrido mirar donde te digo O:) Antonio Tejada Lacaci [EMAIL PROTECTED] Depto.

I usually use less and there's also one I haven't gotten around to trying named most.) If you're just reading a text file, `more filename` is all you have to do. To page through the output of a command is a little longer: `command | more`. Also, is there a keyboard combination that will re-enter the last command? Like dos F3? You can use the up and down arrows to scroll through your command history.
Re: looking before I leap (bye gnome!)
Hello, I don't suppose you would be so kind as to outline the steps you took? I really don't hate gnome or anything (prefer it to kde) and might want to put it back sometime... you sound like you have some experience at this... thanks! I just waded through the dselect package list, hitting - on all of the gnome-* packages. Other times, I would hit - on something like libgnorbit0 or libgnorba27 and then it would list all of the dependencies, and I would hit - on all of them. Then of course, when hitting return in delsect on the remove unwanted software those packages were actually removed from my system. I actually mapped out all of the dependencies on paper once, while trying to get newer gnome stuff up and running. When I tried (several times) to get things back, I was installing from my win95/vfat partition using newer files I downloaded, using the dpkg -i option, then when everything was there, using the dpkg --configure --pending command. I'm get over my head when trying to get (newer) enlightenment-conf, which needs freetype2 and libc6 newer than what I can find :( I am not quite up to speed on the glibc ties to lib6c yet. In any case, the procedures above got rid of most, if not all, of the gnome related stuff. Hope this helps, John __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

Slink is the current stable debian release version, which is 2.1 Potato is the current unstable release version, which is due to be released before the end of the year, god willing. :) Often you will see Slink = Stable, Potato = Unstable, but I have been using potato for a while now will little or no problems, and it works a lot better in many ways, at least for me.

Hello, Phil Brutsche wrote: You were at the prompt, which is the old-style boot rom for compatibility with the Sun 3 and older. When you're hit with that prompt, you need to hit n and enter to get to the ok prompt, which is what you're looking for. At the ok prompt, boot floppy will work the way you expect. I have tried that, but the machine says that it boots from /obio../, and the floppy drive doesn't spin. BTW, can the actual device be redirected by the prom monitor? The sequence goes like the following: ok boot floppy Boot device: /obio/SUNW/fdtwo Bad magic number in disk label Can't open Sun disk label package Can't open boot device It seems that the device floppy was misdirected to fdtwo (which doesn't exist and that may explain why the drive doesn't spin). I'm not so clear why the prom monitor complaining about package; there's no relation between installed Solaris and the prom monitor, right? If you type help at the ok prompt you get some online help.

Pierfrancesco Caci wrote: Is there a way to boot off a SCSI disk (/dev/sda2 is my root partition) if there is also an IDE disk (/dev/hda[1-5] are present) ? All you need is just to install lilo. I have an IDE and a SCSI disk having NT and Linux; I put Linux on the SCSI disk and write lilo on the IDE disk. (When I did that I knew that it was pretty risky, but it worked fine.) If your lilo doesn't work properly, just use a floppy to boot. What you need to do is to copy your current kernel (of course, this assuming that your Linux already runs) and use rdev to let the kernel know where the root partition resides: dd if=/vmlinuz of=/dev/fd0 rdev /dev/fd0 /dev/sda2 rdev -R /dev/fd0 1 then reboot the machine. The ide disk does not have bootable partitions but it has lilo on it because I can't get the system to boot off the scsi disk directly. Also, inserting/removing an IDE removable hd confuses LILO.

It seems only root can access them, although I haven't really checked this. tune2fs can lower the number of reserved blocks, but here's my question: Why, on a 6.4 GB hard drive, were there 300MB or reserved blocks? What are they for, and do I really need them? Some kilobytes of space is needed on the / and /var so that root can log in. Free space of about this size was traditionally reserved for root so that he/she could still log in to take corrective action even if the disk is full. In the days when 50MB was a big disk, saving a few percent for this requirement made sense. Applying these same old percentages - often 5% for most kinds of unix, 10% on hpux, reserves an excessive amount of space; often for no advantage. On /home and similar partitions it is my belief that zero percent need be reserved. On / and if it is a separate partiton /var, a few (5) megabaytes reseved is plenty. This is all purely subjective.

Quoting the fine manual `info libc Temporary Files':

external modem problem
I'm having a problem with an external US Robotics 56K Faxmodem. I'm running a Potato system with the 2.2.12 kernel on a Toshiba Tecra 700CT. I have never gotten the modem to work with Linux before, but I have used it with Windows. The problem is this: when I run Minicom (or anything else that requires the modem) the modem is unresponsive. The TR light -- Data Terminal Ready light -- gets lit up and the modem won't talk to the software. The same light also goes on when I run statserial to check the serial port. However, there is definitely some communication between the OS and the modem. When I exit Minicom or statserial the TR light goes off. Also, when I re-initialize the modem within Minicom the light temporarily goes off. Also, when I updated my ppp connection with pppconfig I told it to search for all available modems and it found the modem (which is attached to /dev/ttyS0); when it was searching, all the lights on the modem briefly flashed. I've checked the dip switches on the modem and they seem fine -- they are set to the factory default, which includes the DTR switch off (I've tested it with it on as well; no good). The serial port, /dev/ttyS0, also seems fine. I have support for the serial port loaded as a module and when I type lsmod it shows up. I don't think I have a getty running on the serial port (I checked /dev/ttyS0). The info from setserial seems fine and I don't think that I have any conflicts (from /proc/interrupts). I'm stumped and any help would be much appreciated, especially since I've managed to disable my PCMCIA modem (which may soon be the subject of another post). Thanks.
?complex args pass to other app w/o changing?
i want a wapper for make that do make -j -l 10.00-like things. so i need the wrapper (pretend as make) to pass args to it to the real make program. that is for a call: make CXXFLAGS=-O2 -do-strength-reduce LD=-s i want the wrapper (above fake make prog) to pass the CXXFLAGS=.. et al to the real make prog (say, make_real). but i cannot make a wrapper wrote in neither bash or perl do the trick. they only passed CXXFLAGS=-O2 -no-trangth-reduce LD=-s (no quotes) as seperate args as seperated by white space, w/ the double-quotes effect removed. can anyone enlighten me?

As a workaround, you can compile -fwritable-strings. The proper solution is

#include stdio.h

Re: turning your computer off
Quoting Ed Cogburn ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): jh wrote: Is there a best way to shut down linux and turn off your computer? I read in an online guide that you should press ctrlaltdelete. When I do this and I later turn my computer on it says last boot failed...Then it installs. Is this the recommended way to turn off your computer? You can use shutdown as others have suggested, but frankly, the simplest thing to do is to use Ctrl-Alt-Del and wait untill the shutdown process is complete. When you notice the hardware reset has occured (screen clears and shows BIOS message and/or your monitor cycles on, off and on again), then turn the machine off. It only takes a few seconds of waiting. I agree with Ctrl-Alt-Del being the simplest safe way, but there's one other thing you may need to check on certain comuters. Ctrl-Alt-Del by default performs a reboot, and usually you can just switch off after the Rebooting ... message. On some computers, however, the power switch won't work while the computer is executing its self-tests etc. In this case you can do one of three things, depending on circumstances. a) Set a power-on password, and turn off at the prompt. (Other boot prompts are usually just as useful.) b) Change the line in /etc/inittab from ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now to ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -h now c) The risky one: wait until the power switch works again while linux is booting, but don't let it go too far. Obviously you're safe at least until the root partition is checked. It's very tedious if you're distracted and the system comes up again...

Re: external modem problem
Oops. I feel a little silly. Almost right after posting this message I installed and ran a version of the 2.2.12 kernel I compiled with plug-and-play included and the modem works fine now. Thanks anyway. Richard Weil wrote: I'm having a problem with an external US Robotics 56K Faxmodem. I'm running a Potato system with the 2.2.12 kernel on a Toshiba Tecra 700CT. I have never gotten the modem to work with Linux before, but I have used it with Windows. The problem is this: when I run Minicom (or anything else that requires the modem) the modem is unresponsive. The TR light -- Data Terminal Ready light -- gets lit up and the modem won't talk to the software. The same light also goes on when I run statserial to check the serial port. However, there is definitely some communication between the OS and the modem. When I exit Minicom or statserial the TR light goes off. Also, when I re-initialize the modem within Minicom the light temporarily goes off. Also, when I updated my ppp connection with pppconfig I told it to search for all available modems and it found the modem (which is attached to /dev/ttyS0); when it was searching, all the lights on the modem briefly flashed. I've checked the dip switches on the modem and they seem fine -- they are set to the factory default, which includes the DTR switch off (I've tested it with it on as well; no good). The serial port, /dev/ttyS0, also seems fine. I have support for the serial port loaded as a module and when I type lsmod it shows up. I don't think I have a getty running on the serial port (I checked /dev/ttyS0). The info from setserial seems fine and I don't think that I have any conflicts (from /proc/interrupts).

But, I have no idea what it is trying to tell me. The cron job: I think 2.2.x kernels no longer remove modules after one minute as the 2.0.x kernels did, but a cron job pops up and looks through /proc/modules to see what to remove. The error message: I've seen this one, but I can't remember exactly what it means. However, I got it when I was playing around with the sound modules. Most likely, I did a modprobe which partly failed but didn't roll back correctly (which I think it's meant to). Once I'd figured out the right modules to load, I didn't see it again. You can perhaps check if this is right by trying yourself to rmmod any module that has a zero usage count and no dependents. But IIRC I cleared the problem by rebooting to give me a clean kernel.
