Hello list,
Just one more bit of information. The maintainer of GNU tar got back to
me (rather quickly, I might add). He confirms this is a known bug in GNU
tar, and that currently, no effort has been made to fix it. :-(
I am going to give a go at it, but this sort of lower-level C code r

Hi,
If I remember correctly, the issue is that some (most) monitors are pretty
stupid. The boards generate the signals which drive the monitor, but the
monitor does not have any way to tell the board that it is a X model
monitor, and here are the rates it can be driven at. These values eith

I checked the RH 6.2 system that I have here and itcan format
1.722 mb floppies. By default my system did not have a block device that
could handle this size floppy. However, you should be able to create a block

We just hit an apparent bug in GNU tar that causes it to barf on a

It runs the backup fine, but on a -d (--diff) (and, presumably, -x

Which is not really software, but artwork. And in the case of Visio, a

I used to use tkined for at least looking at how the network is
laid out. It's a network admin console that uses tk and snmp, can scan
subnets, gives nice displays of machines, snmp traps, etc.
