Kent, I guess I didn't make myself clear. I need a com program to *use* the ports, not to verify that they work. I already know that they work, and that the card is working. I know this by some other diagnostics which the board came with. The new ports are mapped to com5 and above. I need to

Sorry to ask about a W/95 issue here, but I need to validate a board on W/95 before I use it on Linux. I need to be able to talk to my extended serial ports using a terminal program. I can't find any Software that will open a terminal and talk to anything above COM4. PCPlus, hyperterm, etc are h

As user: swap capslock/cntrl?

1998-08-28 Thread Edward J Young
How do I swap the capslock and control keys on a standard PC keyboard as a user only? (not as root) I need to do this so I don't get Carpel Tunnel from straining to hit the control key when running emacs all the time. Since this is a system at Univ. of Colorado, and I'm not root, I need to do

Proportional fonts in Kde?

1998-08-08 Thread Edward J Young
I updated my KDE packages, to 1.0and now GNU emacs19's fonts are different, and very difficult to read. The video is now reverse video and very difficult to read. I believe that they are now non proportional fonts. So when running dired, for example, now the files and permissions etc, don't l

Got the user access to audio working. Thanx. Now, how do you get Netscape to invoke the rvplayer when I click on a realaudio clip? I installed both Netscape and rvplayer using the Debian package installers. First Netscape and then rvplayer, if that matters. Thanx in advance, Ed -- Un

I have upgraded from 1.3.1 to hamm with some difficulty, but feel like I'm getting there. My latest problem is that when invoking emacs from a console, I get "segmentation fault", and no emacs. I don't believe that emacs was upgraded during the deselect process so I suspect that the version I h
