RE: mouse probs on 2.2 install
tried /dev/psaux and that made it worse, this was with I can't remember which window manager, it's the one that describes itself as NeXTStep like with the big debian squiggle wallpaper. the system was booting straight into X so I couldn't get in to XF86Config to change it back, so I reinstalled with twm (tab) and X config by anXious. used /dev/psaux as the device again, cos I _know_ the mouse is in the ps2, right? anyway, it all worked fine. but i didn't like the look of twm so used dselect to put the other window manager back on, and lo and behold, the mouse doesn't work again, can't even open an xterm to edit XF86Config, another reinstall looms... also, when i installed with twm I didn't put xdm on cos I don't want to boot straight to X, just in case it doesn't work. When i changed to NeXTStep-like, I'm sure i didn't ask for xdm but it seems to be on there anyway.

RE: Memoria reconocida por el sistema vs. memoria instalada

Sin embargo cuando hacemos un free -kt lo que obtenemos es: on a pc with 128mb ram, this is the output from free -kt total used free sharedbufferscached Mem: 63528 62332 1196 49252 5736 34080 -/+ buffers/cache: 22516 41012 Swap: 66524 60 66364 Tota: 130052 6249267560 assuming that the Swap entry 66524 represents the swap partition, why can the pc only recognise 64MB of ram? Suponemos que la memoria de swap se refiere a la partición de swap, con lo que parece que el sistema solo está reconociendo 64 Mb de las 128 Mb instaladas. En el libro The Debian Linux User's Guide en el Appendix 7 apartado Arguments leí lo siguiente (que reproduzco, con perdón): [...] mem= Since the BIOS of most PCs can only report 64 Megabytes there are times when the kernel needs to be told that there is more memory than this. This argument should be used with great care, since, if you lie to the kernel and tell it that it has more address space than it actually has, the system will crash miserably as some time in the near future. Also make sure that your system does not use the highest memory for caching the bios code, as use of this memory by the kernel will ultimately crash the system as well. The value given after the equal sign should be the highest ram address available to the kernel, so a 96 Megabyte system would get an argument like mem=0x600. [...] having changed lilo.conf as directed with line mem=0x0800 (128MB as hex), i get Syntax error near line 7 in file /etc/lilo.conf line 7 is the mem=... line so how to get it to recognise 128MB ram? [i don't get the bit about the guitar - does he mean he doesn't want to flash his bios?] sorry this mail is so cacho Por lo que entendí estos parametros se podian poner en el lilo.conf y tomarian efecto despues de ejecutar liloconfig y rearrancar el sistema, pero cuando pongo en lilo.conf mem=0x800 (valor hexadecimal de 128 Mb) y ejecuto liloconfig me aparece el error: Syntax error near line 7 in file /etc/lilo.conf Que es la linea donde he puesto lo de mem=... ¿Alguien sabe como puedo hacer que el sistema reconozca las 128 Mb?.

apache question
i don't use inetd to start apache, i start it from a script which i can only run as root. if i chmod the script and try being any other user, it won't start. the documentation says you will have to start apache as root and then it will switch to Nobody, it kind of does, I get one process running as root, and about five running as Nobody, which I guess are the servers mentioned in httpd.conf. If i shut down the process owned by root, apache shuts down. apache doesn't mind how many of the Nobody server processes are running. Yeah But What's The Question? Question: is this safe? everybody everywhere always says never run apache as root, particularly if there are cgi etc running.

OK, let's start with the easy part: A filemanager is a program which helps you to manage your files (delete, copy, remove,...) Well known from the dark ages of DOS are e.g. the Norton Commander. Or more recently the Windows Explorer. The Midnight Commander ist an example of a filemanager running on UNIX systems. (The premier filemanager of course being the cp-rm-mv-ln combo :-) X, or the X-Server is a program which, overly simplified, enables the use of graphics on the screen as opposed to a pure text console. It puts the screen in a graphics mode and enables other programs, such as a windowmanager (e.g. sawmill or Window Maker) or a terminal emulator (e.g. xterm), or any other program. A window manager is a piece of software which provides functionality to drag windows around on the screen, to resize them, to close them, in short which enables any kind of handling a window. Starting an xterm will give you a window but without any boder - that what the windowmanager does for you. It's the look feel part of X-windows. KDE and GNOME are so called desktops or rather desktop environments. They provide you with a windowmanager, a filenmanager and some other nifty things like a task bar, and such, some personal productivity software, all with a consistent look and feel and a consistent (sometimes even intuitive) behavior. Hope this helps a little. Cheers -- Stephan -- Stephan Engelke [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** He's dead, Jim. You grab his wallet, I'll grab his tricorder. ***

RE: sources of debian apps: is there a standard place?
i'm pretty new to debian, but i'm compiling things becos what i want isn't available as binaries - i'm praying i'll still be able to search and destroy stuff when i want to get rid of it without killing a lot of things i don't understand as well :-) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Yeah, I agree completely.
