Re: Linux friendly ADSL ISPs (urgent)
Unfriendly is Bezeq Itl. Incompetent is Internet Zahav. Everybody else is pretty much ok except Actcom which is good. Thanks Marc! I've always said that it is very helpful to have somebody with a painful SCSI cable, that doesn't have any problem to say the bad word when somebody else needs it. And thanks Eran Levy too. Since it (yesterday) was the last day to enjoy the deals of Bezeq and the ISPs, I ordered 2 lines from one of the ISPs that don't require long obligations (012 in my case). If there is a problem, or I'll want static IPs in the future and 012 will not provide me with them, or Bezeq will launch attractive SDSL service, I always can move to a competing package. In any case, my expensive Frame-Relay is not going to be dis-connected soon... :-( Thanks again, -- Eli Marmor [EMAIL PROTECTED] CTO, Founder Netmask (El-Mar) Internet Technologies Ltd. __ Tel.: +972-9-766-1020 8 Yad-Harutzim St. Fax.: +972-9-766-1314 P.O.B. 7004 Mobile: +972-50-23-7338 Kfar-Saba 44641, Israel = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

windows cycling in fvwm
Hi How do I set fvwm2 (2.2.5) to have Alt-Tab cycle through windows?

RE: Gnome games
Hi, If I get this right, what you describe is a problem in the X setup, before your .xinitrc, .fvwmrc or the like comes to play. You need to change the configuration of your X server. This change will be noted in your (probably this is the path) /etc/X11/XF86Config file. You screen got blank, I guess, due to bad modelines. The remedy work needs to be done hands on. You can try to: lower resolution, change the modelines. You can get help from automated tools like XConfigurator or XF86Setup or the like (run them as root), but DO NOT forget to backup your existing (useless but important for it's other data) XF86Config file.

I am trying to upgrade gnome on my LinuxBox. I''ve installed/upgraded all required gnome-* rpms and their dependencies. Then tried to startx. Unfortunatly it didn't work. I got blank screen. The question is of course, how to make it work ? Few words about the LinuxBox. I had RedHat 6.2 originaly. New rpm's I've installed are from RedHat 7.1. I've tried to change .xinitrc. First removed it completely. Then wrote exec gnome-wm in there. In both cases, the result was as described below. This is it. Any help will be pretiated. Best regards. Alexandr Sandler.

Alcatel USB ADSL modem Linux drivers
Hi! It apears that Alcatel distributes Linux drivers to the USB speedtouch ADsL modem. Does anyone have experience with this? Dani = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Anything new with Mandrake 8 and the missing line of echo -n test?
Just wondering if there is something new about it?
Hi list.
We've just solved this really weird problem with Mandrake 8 (well - solved
is a harsh word - let's say : we found it why we were going in circles and
wanted to show you the way in case you get lost too :-), which made my
life a bit diificult in the last three days or so -
We have a program which writes a single line (with no new line) to stdout
and quits - this small test program is a good example:
#include lt;string.h
#include lt;stdio.h
int main (int argc, char* argv[]) {
char temp[200];
sprintf(temp,quot;testquot;);
write(1,temp,strlen(temp));
return 0;
}
---
Now, on a MDK72 and any other well behaving 2.2 distro running this would
get you something like this :
---
[user@computer user]$ ./test
test[user@computer user]$
---
But on MDK8 I got this :
---
[user@computer user]$ ./test
[user@computer user]$
---
no mention of the output text at all. redirecting stdout to a file and
'cat'ing the file it seemed like it does not do output at all.
stracing proved that not only it does call write() it actually prints what
I want it to print.
Although at first we thought we had a glibc flush problem (the original
program uses printf) or (weird as it may seem) a kernel buffer flushing
problem, and we were about to raise hell on the kernel development mailing
list - the solution was pretty simple :
it seems that the Mandrake 8 default shell - bash 2.04.18 - sends a
carriage return before printing it's prompt - overwriting everything
written on the same line, as this revised code shows:
#include lt;string.h
#include lt;stdio.h
int main (int argc, char* argv[]) {
char temp[200];
sprintf(temp,quot;testquot;);
write(1,temp,strlen(temp));
sleep(1);
return 0;
}
---
simply annoying.
I was wandering if I should report this as a bug, and if so - to how ?
Mandrake ?
Oded
p.s. -
All you csh lovers, please no flaims as to the superiority of tcsh over
bash, this is not a good example, as even considering this minor
anoyance, Bash is clearly supreme ;-)

Re: Tigerjet ISDN Linux support
Hi - I've seen numerous posts from people trying to get their Tigerjet isdn card (distributed by isdnnet) working with Linux. Has anyone figured this out? I've just installed Mandrake 8.0 and the wizard doesn't work with the Tigerjet. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Elan I have not tried much but it might be that you should find out what other names this card have: [01:58:10 tmp]$ zgrep jet /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.2.19pre17/Documentation/i sdn/* /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.2.19pre17/Documentation/isdn/README.HiSax.gz:Traver se Technologie NETjet PCI S0 card and NETspider U card /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.2.19pre17/Documentation/isdn/README.HiSax.gz:Ovisli nk ISDN sc100-p card (NETjet driver) /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.2.19pre17/Documentation/isdn/README.HiSax.gz: 20 NETjet PCI card no parameter /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.2.19pre17/Documentation/isdn/README.HiSax.gz: 20 NETjet PCI card no parameter [01:58:18 tmp]$ -- Shaul Karl [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Mozilla latest snapshot
Hi Yosi Isn't there a binary tarball of mozilla bidi ? I prefer not to install rpms :) What is wrong with rpms? And if you prefer to compile it yourself why not using srpm? Cya, Oren.
