Hi All,
This is one I hope the Red Hat wizards may be able help me with. I am
planning to install red Hat 8.0 on some machines at school. Because kids
are so fickle, I want really good fonts as they are unforgiving with poor
rendering. So I have been testing RH 8.0 on a system. I followed

It's not set to anything. Should it be?

Unfortunately no there's nothing installed on it already. When I bought
the machine it didn't come with anything. I managed to get a copy of
Solaris 8 for Sparc but the minimum requirements are at least 64megs of
ram, and my little machine only has half of that. I then got a copy of

I've never heard anything like that before on a Linux machine.
I know that I have experienced self reboots on Windows machines due to
hardware problems (like busted memory or over heating CPU) but I would
imagine that the Linux kernel would panic instead of rebooting your

Weird, not for me. Anyway you can try Google's cache;
If you suspect hacking, you might try
rpm --verify -a
and look for oddities.
Also there are 'rootkit' checkers out
there somewhere; google for 'em.
Note the above checks are only reliable
if you do them from a freshly installed
instance. Have you got a spare partition?

Doing it in Java is pretty straightforward but I am not sure how to do it in
