Re: xfs is horked!?
Turns out that the permissions on all of /tmp were somehow messed up. I don't know how this is possible, when I tarred up the entire / filesystem (which included eveything but /boot). So X is working now, although something is still screwy with fonts, cause i can't open an xterm. Seems that it can't find a font that it needs. ugh.

Re: xfs is horked!?
You may be right. I just did 'tar cvf f00.tar /' and ended up with a 2.6GB tarball, which seemed about right. At this point the only damage appears to be the /tmp permissions weirdness, and the current 'missing' fonts.The laptop is at home, so i'll do some more digging tonight.

Is anyone using the > Wordperfect office suite in linux lately? No. But I have been having success with FrameMaker under Wine. Fonts seem much better. I have not put it through rigorous testing as I haven't had the time yet. But I will. I know that codeweavers claim to support Word now. And their improvements do get back into the wine release. So, maybe WP will also work much better. I picked up a copy of WPO 2000 from http://www.softwareandstuff.com/s_tech_net_linuxwp9.html for $24 delivered. This version is apparently a later release. I have installed it on Libranet 2.7 and .2.8, and eDesk 2.4. Installation on Caldera WS 3.1.1 is not so happy. There is an error report on starting WP9 than you can click through, and writing tools are disabled. Installation is better on SuSE 8.0 if libaps is installed first, as advised in the release notes. It does not run at all on SuSE 8.2. It works quite well. The WPO2KL version I got is the deluxe package and includes Paradox 9. It and Quattro Pro are stable, probably thanks to that tight Borland API. There is a bug that causes WP9 to crash if I open a second document, but this can be handled by opening (from the file manager) and closing each document in turn. The documents are then listed at the bottom of the file menu, and can be opened simultaneously thereafter for cut-and-paste work. The M$ Word filter is very good. I opened a large .doc file with an embedded Excel table without a hitch, even though this file was inaccessible to Applix Word and WP 8.1/Linux, even with the Filtrix patch. The package comes with a large library of TT fonts, which must be installed one by one. Comparing notes with an owner of the original release, the one I got, which apparently was intended for the UK market, has later file dates than the original release. Said other owner reports that the Fontastic font manager is crippled after installing CrossOver Office. It also includes a small 3 " plush Tux toy, vice the inflatable penguin that came with the original. CrossOver Office informed me that support for WPxx/win is still on the drawing board, but I get the impression it is not a priority. -- Leon A.

The standard kernel will allow you to use up to 1Gb of memory. If you have 1Gb-4Gb, you need to select the 4Gb memory model when building your kernel. If you have 4Gb or more, you need the 64Gb (max RAM supported on ia32) option. The numbers are max memory, not minimum. I know this because I´ve seen it on systems w/ 3Gb and 8Gb of memory.

If you don't like that, then you need to get a new videcard with its own dedicatred memory. HA! HA! HA! Come on!, This video card doesn't share memory. It uses his own memory.

The 11mb comes from the system memory, so it robs the system of RAM. You most likely have an intel 81x series chipset inside your computer... bascially this means that you have no actualy video card, but your chipset contains graphics into the motherboard. The intel integrated My card is a PCI based video card equipped with 128Mb DDR-Ram. again look better: ..If you want to install a video card, you will have to install a PCI based video card, unless if you upgrade to a motherboard that contains an AGP slot. The PCI based video card will improve performance greatly, but it will still not be comparable to an AGP based video card. A popular video card that is in the PCI format is the ATI Radeon 32mb SDR. The problem is, ATI may have discontinued this card, so it may be hard to find.. Enrico My point was that some video cards (that is built ins) do use system ram.

Just a thought. Not exactly, what you are thinking about is the kernel ability to use 3G or more. Which is an option that can be set when compiling the kernel. I have successfully used 1G on the standard ML9.1 distro. Mobo depent. You may have to append the memory size in grub or lilo. OK, let´s clear the air about this now. The standard kernel will allow you to use up to 1Gb of memory. If you have 1Gb-4Gb, you need to select the 4Gb memory model when building your kernel.

Re: Multi-line regular expression matching
For multiline edititing in sed, read about N and read about the hold space, too.

A couple of the reg-exp's that I've tried: 's/#lineA.*#lineB//gs' 's/#lineA(.|\n)*#lineB//gs' Both of the above seem to work fine if #lineA and #lineB are on the same line in the file (I've yet to add in anything to check if #lineA and #lineB occur at the start of the line, but that'll be added in later).
