OTStay Legal - Stay Free (Software)

Re: Mandrake shutdown/segmentation fault
Thanks, Lonni. The first link is of course exactly my problem. After a little research I find the motherboard actually is usable in both AT and ATX systems--and I couldn't find a way in the BIOS to turn off APM support. While the manual says Power Management can be set to Disabled, that choice is not actually available. Besides, other APM features, like powering down disks should still work, so there are advantages to having an APM-enabled kernel, and having it available in hardware. What I did--that seems to have worked--is compare the shutdown script on this system with one on a Slackware system. There I found a little better documentation on what happens in the last moments of shutdown. In the Mandrake file (/etc/init.d/halt), I found the line HALTARGS=-i -d -p, and when I changed it to HALTARGS=-i -d on my system at home, it no longer powered off. I did the same on the system I asked about--no more segfault.

Also sprach Douglas J Hunley on Thursday 04 April 2002 15:19: Today's changes include: 1. A new font (for those who have it installed) .Screenshot is attached for those without the font. Please comment on the new font. Only a suggestion: If you want a nice font for the items in the upper and left-hand frames which a bit outside from the usual Arial/Helvetica/Times/Tahoma line, try Comic Sans MS. I think it had been used as body text font in some SxS pages, I always loved it, and IMHO it goes well with the font which you used in the new SxS logo. It will even do nicely without the [ brackets ] ... BTW, if anyone minds that it's copyright MS$, the beloved Tahoma and Verdana seem to be as well. An altenative to try out would be Lucidux Sans, which I think is included in a standard XFree installation, and definitely not MS$. 2. forums page cleaned up. I like it a lot better then the previous 'placeholder' page. thanks for mentioning it Klaus. i probably would have forgotten to re-write it otherwise. I like it much better now.

This locking issue is definitely complicating my job... I have taken out all : in my /etc/procmailrc except the msgid.cache you created in the sample. I believe the example assumes you are running as root. That's why they use /var/log. A normal user can't write to /var/log for obvious reasons. Each user may have his/her own .procmailrc file in their own directory. When that user starts prormail it uses that user's .procmailrc file.

No this then gives you a blue screen without any gui.

Irritating is the fact that the icons don't name themselves if you hover over them with the mouse; there's probably some control for this.
