It's due to gcc-2.95 not liking autoconf's generated test to find the parameter types of select(). The appropriate people have been informed more than once about this and a number of other problems. This particular problem isn't yet fixed though :-( A simple workaround for you is to do: sed -e "s/extern select/extern int select/" < configure > newconf mv newconf configure then rerun configure and make.

Converting Troff to Lyx
I have found it easy to convert existing troff documents to LyX.
First, get tr2latex, the Troff-to-TeX translator by Christian Engel,
from the nearest CTAN site. Second, I am attaching a shell
script I used for this purpose.
Because troff is limited, I had written my own troff macros for
bullets and computer source text. LaTeX/LyX has these capabilities, so
the script maps my custom macros to the LaTeX/LyX versions. The script
also does some cleanups to workaround problems with tr2latex and reLyX.

Since the one which is ran is the one in /usr/local/bin, you should check whether it is well installed. Is it the one which comes from the debian package, or maybe a link to one of the others? Did you relocate your debien package? JLarc

In amsguide.dvi you can find a table with all symbols in the AMS-packages. I found this file at the following location: /usr/doc/packages/te_ams/texmf/amstex/amsguide.dvi Use xdvi or kdvi to view this file. I think the teTeX-documentation is a good starting point for your quest for a nice angle-symbol. Regards, Ingo

Problems with margins
Hello, I'm writing the thesis and I'm using book class with fancy, redefining the position of header and pages numbers. Only one problem, even if I change the margins to obtain more space on the left in the odd(1,3,5...) pages and the same on the right part for odd pages (2,4,6...), nothing changes. How can I resolve the problems ? Bye,Claudio

Need another \angle - symbol

Did you try to just redo make sometimes there are some memory problems and it goes over it the second time. Otherwise try to reboot your machine and do make (without make clean!) As first thing.
