Linux and Fat32?
Hi, Having benefited greatly from this list before, I do not doubt for a moment that someone will know the answer to this: Does Linux read/write to the new Win95 Fat32 filesystem? thanks in advance. -alex

Re: Turning off screen blanking?
I think you have to recompile the kernel. One of the options in the character devices section is the apm support, in which you can turn the console blanking off. Alternatively you can use $ xset s off (look at the xset manpage) hope this helps, alex On Tue, 17 Dec 1996, John Juergensen wrote: > Hi all, > > I know this has gotta be a real simple basic question, but I've > been through all the man pages and how-tos I can find, with no > answer. > > After Linux recieves no input for a while, the screen blanks. > While this behavior is fine in character mode, it hoses my X server. > The screen gets all wavy and colors are wrong, like I've running it > in the wrong mode.

please help g77 broken
After upgrading to Debian 1.2 g77 is broken. It says when invoked gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `f771': No such file or directory But f771 is in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2/ and is executable by everyone. I have reinstalled gcc and g77 but that did not help.

Re: ppp problems
I had a similar problem. It turned out that pppd started the negotiation phase too early when the peer had not finished send all the preliminary junk. I fixed it by adding a \d (a timeout of about 1 sec) to the last chat transmit. hope it works -alex On Mon, 9 Dec 1996, Dave Ewaldz wrote: > Hi all, I am trying to get ppp version 2.2.0f-18 running on my > Debian 1.1 system.
