Hi,
I just did a fresh re-install of LM7.2 on my laptop and chose X4.0.1 instead of
3.3.6 this time.
Now, when I try to access a virtual console, X crashes and restarts into kdm.
The actual sequence is:
- press C+A+F1 or C+A+F[2-6]
- if f[2-6]: vc[2-6] appears momentarily
- switches to vc1

Hello,
I am running Mandrake 7.2 on a dual P166, tyan tomcat system with

Hi Mark,
I think your problem is that your Kmail and procmail uses different

Therefore, there won't be any mail delivered to the errorneous

The problem was I needed a line in my httpd.conf for mod_auth_ldap.so.
It is now working. I guess the problem was with me assuming that installing
RPM's would do the work for me.
Thank you for your interest. It is appreciated.

Its the locate database updating. At any time you can type `locate
[filename}' and instantly find the file. You update the databse where it
stores all the files and their locations as rot by doing `updatedb'.
Feel free to get rid of it if you wish.
