<Raises hand.> Yes, you're correct. I have two machines running Debian here at home; my personal workstation with SVGA etc, but also a server. The latter is a 486-DX-33 with 12mb RAM, Hercules/CGA video card and monitor, and no mouse. No X, SVGALIB etc on this machine .. hamish -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
