ok, i hate it when i run tin, and then forget i have it in the background
somewhere and run it again.
i want to replace 'tin' with a shell script or alias that will
test for a lock file (and call me a moron if it exists), make a lock file,
run tin, and then delete the lock file...

I was previously unaware of the magic sysreq keys. They do look useful,
and I read the documentation as you suggest. From what I can tell, it
is compiled in my kernel (CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ=y), but I am wondering if
it is
When I try alt-sysrq-h (to display magic-sysrq help) in KDE, my cpu runs
for awhile but nothing seems to happen. I wanted to avoid testing
something more drastic, but since you asked, I entered init level 3 and
tried a few (alt-sysrq-'h', 's', 'u', and 'b'). Nothing happens at all.

hi jonathan,
when not latexing or playing games, i'm usually not using X.
runlevels are not meaningful since they mean different things for
different operating systems. i'm guessing you don't use debian, so i
don't know what runlevel 3 means.

no
or - Is the ethernet built into the machine?
yes
- If it's PCMCIA, when you eject and insert the card do you hear beeps?

you most likely won't be able to delete this file (untested) because
these files are not real filesystem files. they are abstractions of
kernel data into a memory region which looks like a filesystem and

Okay this means they could have installed a new kernel or not.

my answer with a google search

- Is there really a space in the /lib/modules/2.4.20 debian directory?
(2.4.20 debian2 not 2.4.20-debian2)
- Tell me if you see a bunch of stuff from:
find /lib/modules/2.4.20*
(if it's just a few lines paste them here)
- Send output from the following:

Have you checked if ls is correctly reporting the file size?
Maybe du / df or some such would help confirm the fire is
actually small.
Find midnite commander, it has a Linux un-rm feature that
rocks. It might already be installed as mc, but you can also
find it at http://www.gnome.org/mc/
