GUI time line? I had to laugh. Why does it split? Is X is a
different, parallel universe? What a load of tosh these potted

Wrong! There are many ISA winmodems.

WinZip can handle .tar files. It can even handle .tar.gz files, but there is
a trick to it. If WinZip asks for an extension for the extracted file, add
"tar".

There was a flap a couple of years back when it was discovered that
certain (illegal) opcodes beginning with the bytes F0 0F, could cause a
Pentium to crash/hang, even when executed from non-privileged modes.
Intel patched the chip from a certain revision. For earlier chips,
its's up to the OS to install handlers to stop the crash.
I think the message is fairly self-explanatory - "workaround enabled" -
no ? Oh well.

Make the zip driver a loadable module. This way you can control when
and where it gets loaded. There really isn't anyway to make the kernel
load drivers in a particular order, AFAIK. If you make it a module, then
you can just uncomment the line in the modules file and let insmod do
the work for you. If you are running slackware, this file is
/etc/rc.d/rc.modules. Uncomment the ppa driver.

Subject: Motti 2.0 - a strategy game
Date: Mon, 8 Mar 1999 17:40:00 +0200 (EET)
I am pleased to announce that Motti 2.0 is now released.
Motti is a strategy game, which resembles distantly the game of go.
Motti 2.0 should run on any system with the X Window System.
This is a complete rewrite of Motti 1.0, and should be regarded as
the first real release.
The game is distributed under the GNU General Public License.
It can be downloaded from ftp.gnu.org/gnu/motti/motti-2.0.tar.gz,
and mirrors of that site (see below).
Please report bugs to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

The FSF is looking for one or two additional people to help out with
coordinating the volunteers working on GNU software and documentation.
The volunteer coordinator job involves reading and handling messages
from people offering to help out, sending them information such as the
coding standards or the task list, recording what they want to work on
and their progress, putting people in touch with others who are
working on related tasks, and telling other people in the GNU project
when a completed package is available.
We hope to have three coordinators, who would divide up the job, each
spending two or three hours per week. It is important for
coordinators to stick to the job in a responsible way for a long time;
it causes problems when they come and go.
If you are interested in volunteering to be a coordinator, please send

Well, when I issued the shutdown command I did not include the -h or
-r flag. (The book I am using did not really say to use them.) It was
simply a case of ignorance on my part regarding ways to shut down X
and ways to shut down the system. When I did my "trick", it appeared
that the system was in an unresponsive state. The only thing I
_thought_ I could do was power off the computer. I know better now.

Allright this way it really works. But this approach has at least one
disadvantage: Linux users may be given the permission to
mount and umount directories but if the have to unexport directories the
do not have permissions to do so. So the user might not be able to
umount a directory just because of the export state he cannot change.
Any comments ?

It might be interesting, but it is certainly wrong news. If you read the

Date: 09 Mar 1999 17:38:14 +0000
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'm trying to install RealServer G2 on a RedHat Linux 5.1 box. It
seems to install OK, but I cannot serve a live stream encoded with the
rmenc supplied with RH5.1.
The encoder connects to the server OK, but the rvplayer does not
connect - it just sits there forever with a message "Connecting to
(ip-address)".
The reason I'm using this rather than the realaudio software supplied
with the RH5.1 boxed set is that I need to archive a live stream, and
the supplied license file does not allow this. rmenc generates the
error "alert: That stream is not available with the requested codec
and/or bandwidth".
Two questions:
- Does the boxed set of RH5.2 contain RealAudio software such that I
can stream live and archive the stream?
- If not, how do I get G2 to serve a live pre-G2 stream?
Replies by email please. I'll summarise.

Hmm, I have no idea what "systems properties" or "device manager" mean, but
to clarify: chances are that an internal Zip is specifically an ATAPI drive.
But there are some IDE-but-not-ATAPI Zips floating around (I've got one).
One way to tell them apart is that the IDE model has a little wire
release-hook at the top-left of the faceplate that the ATAPI (and internal
SCSI afaik) models lack.
FWIW, dmesg lists "hdc: IOMEGA ZIP 100, 96MB w/16kB Cache, CHS=512/12/32"
as the bootlog entry for my IDE/non-ATAPI Zip drive, in case that helps.

Ummm...true IBM has AIX, but they didn't start dealing with UNIX until
the late '80s and at that time they had so little experience
*supporting* it, they had to have a major hiring just to get some UNIX
types onboard. Prior to that they were *business* oriented (Ever wonder
why they are call Internamtional *Business* Machines ? ;-) and UNIX was
not widely used in business...

Subject: Problem mounting Windows drive
Date: 9 Mar 1999 15:27:03 GMT
Hello,
I recently upgraded LILO to version 21. Since I installed it however I
have been unable to mount my Windows drive. When I try, mount reports:
mount: wrong fs type or bad superblock on /dev/hda1
What's more, I can't boot Windows. When I boot from a Windows floppy it
acts as though the drive is not formatted. Could LILO's installation
process have overwritten something on /dev/hda that tells the bios what
format it is? If so, can I restore it? I didn't actually format the
drive so all the data must still be there, I just can't get to it. Does
anyone know of a utility, Linux or DOS, which allows you to edit the raw
data on a disk and know what the data should be?
Finally, the question I fear I don't want to hear the answer to: Am I
screwed? Have I inadvertently blown away my Windows stuff?
Thanks in advance,
