Hi there, Hamish Moffatt wrote: What files do you have under (from memory) /usr/linux-libc1/X11? Some missing symlinks will stop Netscape from starting properly, with a bus error or segfault. Now thats actually makes some sense. When I orignially installed Linux I had something goes wrong and some important links were not made. I sometimes still get these messages popping up and I manage to create the symlinks to the nessecary files. However everything runs right in the mean time. I was hoping by upgrading the system I would get rid of most of these problems but I have picked them up. Now that I have learn't more about Linux I am able to patch them as they come up. ;) Not a problem I will do a ldd and see what links are missing. If that doesn't help then I will get back to you.

To compile a file into an object file, (.o file) you should use the -c
option:
g77 -c aa.f
Then to get an executable, take all your object files and link them:
g77 -o myprogram aa.o bb.o
This will give you the executable `myprogram'. I would advise you to
install the info debian package and to read the sections on g77 (type
info g77).

As a matter of fact while I write this message through telenet to my mail sever I get the messages on my screen, I can't delete them and can't really see what I am writing as the messages get jumbled up with the text .

Try using g77 -c aa.f to generate the object file aa.o. I haven't
used g77 but I suspect that g77 -o prog mainprog.c aa.o will then
allow you to create an executable program. Here mainprog.c
represents a FORTRAN program that calls the subroutine in aa.f and
prog is the name of the executable program.

Re: Lilo: How to install it? ( Part II )
I think the problem is different here. You see, what is happening in the lilo.conf shown (at least to the best of my understanding, and I am no expert) is that LILO is installed on /dev/hda1 -- that is, the first partition. The stanza you show would just boot from the first partition, effectively causing the same thing... booting LILO again. I'm not sure exactly what the best solution is, but the problem could be solved by either... - Changing the first line to boot=/dev/hda, thus installing an MBR, and then restoring the Windows boot sector on /dev/hda1 (which may be stored somewhere in /boot -- or in this case /kernel/boot -- or may need to be restored by booting from a Windows 95 boot disk and typing SYS C:), and then rerunning LILO with the stanza that Steve suggested. - Again restoring the Windows boot sector as described, installing LILO on /dev/hda2, and setting it active, and using that stanza. - Using some options I don't know about because I'm not an expert here. This looks like what you were trying to do with chain.b. I have no idea what chain.b does, and so I can't help you there.

I can restore these permissions but I have no idea what other premissions aren't restored. I untar with the -p option which is supposed to preserve permissions, but it doesn't seem to.

New Smail, how to use offline?
Hi The newest smail seems to have a number of features well suited to fighting spam, but most of these things cause problems when trying to run your typical offline/fetchmail with pop config, so I have reverted to using the smail from my trusty bo CD till I can find out how to configure the newest to my needs.. Basically, it seems to do a reverse lookup on the system connecting to it, but I think I sorted that out by putting allow_broken_hello, or something similar for localhost. Other thing is that it seems to do a DNS lookup on every from address, and since my from contains [EMAIL PROTECTED], this can't be done when I'm offline. So if I can get this fixed I think I can use the newest smail again... Any suggestions?

X and the ATI All-In-Wonder 4MB card
Hello Group, I'm new to Linux and X, so bear with me. I'm probably not going to provide all of the information necessary here. Please ask if I need to provide more information. I'm trying to install X from the Debian 1.3.1 CD. My system: IBM PR200+ running at 150Mhz 64MB Ram 1.5GB drive ATI All-in-Wonder Video card The ATI card is a member of the Mach64 family, and has the Rage II + DVD chipset on board. I've attempted to install the xserver-Mach64 server on my machine. dselect puts me into the xf86config program, and I plug in the parameters which correspond to my system. When I attempt to test X, the screen goes blank for a while as it attempts to go into different video modes. Eventually, I'm kicked back to the shell, where I'm told that each time it tried to switch to a different video mode, it discovered there was not enough (I'm guessing video) memory. My first thought was I was configuring something incorrectly (which I probably am), so I ran SuperProbe to see what Linux though about my Video card. SuperProbe recognizes the card as an ATI, but doesn't know what the chipset is for some reason. It also has a problem seeing the 4MB of video ram on the card, it reports 0. Has anyone else out there attempted to use X with this card? Any luck? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Netscape 5.0 to be released under GPL-like license!!!
this is on netscape's own web site so i'm pretty sure it's not a hoax. see http://www.netscape.com/newsref/pr/newsrelease558.html?cp=nws01flh1 NETSCAPE ANNOUNCES PLANS TO MAKE NEXT-GENERATION COMMUNICATOR SOURCE CODE AVAILABLE FREE ON THE NET BOLD MOVE TO HARNESS CREATIVE POWER OF THOUSANDS OF INTERNET DEVELOPERS; COMPANY MAKES NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR AND COMMUNICATOR 4.0 IMMEDIATELY FREE FOR ALL USERS, SEEDING MARKET FOR ENTERPRISE AND NETCENTER BUSINESSES MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (January 22, 1998) -- Netscape Communications Corporation (NASDAQ: NSCP) today announced bold plans to make the source code for the next generation of its highly popular Netscape Communicator client software available for free licensing on the Internet. The company plans to post the source code beginning with the first Netscape Communicator 5.0 developer release, expected by the end of the first quarter of 1998. This aggressive move will enable Netscape to harness the creative power of thousands of programmers on the Internet by incorporating their best enhancements into future versions of Netscape's software. This strategy is designed to accelerate development and free distribution by Netscape of future high-quality versions of Netscape Communicator to business customers and individuals, further seeding the market for Netscape's enterprise solutions and Netcenter business. In addition, the company is making its currently available Netscape Navigator and Communicator Standard Edition 4.0 software products immediately free for all users. With this action, Netscape makes it easier than ever for individuals at home, at school or at work to choose the world's most popular Internet client software as their preferred interface to the Internet. The time is right for us to take the bold action of making our client free - and we are going even further by committing to post the source code for free for Communicator 5.0, said Jim Barksdale, Netscape's president and chief executive officer. By giving away the source code for future versions, we can ignite the creative energies of the entire Net community and fuel unprecedented levels of innovation in the browser market. Our customers can benefit from world-class technology advancements; the development community gains access to a whole new market opportunity; and Netscape's core businesses benefit from the proliferation of the market-leading client software. Netscape plans to make Netscape Communicator 5.0 source code available for modification and redistribution beginning later this quarter with the first developer release of the product. The company will handle free source distribution with a license which allows source code modification and redistribution and provides for free availability of source code versions, building on the heritage of the GNU Public License (GPL), familiar to developers on the Net. Netscape intends to create a special Web site service where all interested parties can download the source code, post their enhancements, take part in newsgroup discussions, and obtain and share Communicator-related information with others in the Internet community. Netscape will also continue to develop new technologies and offer periodic certified, high-quality, supported releases of its Netscape Communicator and Navigator products, incorporating some of the best features created by this dynamic community. The ubiquity of Netscape's client software facilitates Netscape's strategy of linking millions of individuals to businesses. Today's announcements will help to further proliferate Netscape's award-winning client software which today has an installed base of more than 68 million, providing a ready market for businesses using Netscape's Networked Enterprise software solutions and Netscape Netcenter services. Netscape's research indicates that in the education market where Netscape's products are free, the Netscape client software commands approximately 90 percent share, indicating that users tend to choose Netscape when the choice is freely available. Making its browser software free also will enable Netscape to continue to drive Internet standards, maximize the number of users on the Internet, and expand the third-party community of companies and products that take advantage of the Netscape software platform. Netscape has successfully shifted its business over the past year toward enterprise software sales and to revenues from its Web site business, and away from standalone client revenues. In the third quarter of 1997, standalone client revenues represented approximately 18 percent of Netscape's revenue, with the rest coming from enterprise software, services and the Web site. Preliminary results for the fourth quarter of 1997, which Netscape announced January 5, show standalone client revenues decreased to approximately 13 percent in the fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter of 1996 by comparison, standalone client
