Permissions? No issues whatsoever, if you've actually mailed them a
file. File permissions are a property of the file system, not a
property of the file. When you send the file to someone else, they
can assign their own permissions (especially so if they are a
different operating system).

Yes, I do read this news group as much as possible.
Nobody's yet asked why I don't have a "Best Of" list. But there's two
main reasons:
1. I don't have the facilities or the time to evaluate objectively
what the best of any given software is. I'd have to rely on
hearsay and word-of-mouth. It's enough work keeping the FAQ
up-to-date as it is. If I had to single out one product, I'd have
to justify it, and that would consume even more of my time. There
was a situation a year or so ago where Linux was run head-to-head
against MS Windows. The tests had to be repeated several times
before everyone was satisfied they were correct. Not to mention
that advertising is forbidden in moderated News groups like
news.answers and comp.answers.
2. Even if I were able to pick the "best" of a certain type of
software, that would be no guarantee that it would be the
best for your particular application, memory, HD and video
configuration, network topology, and on and on.
It's a lot more efficient to provide the information so that
someone can make as informed a judgment as possible.
Wow, I guess that was actually three or four reasons. Thanks,
Robert Kiesling

This is a option for the bias. With most PCs you change the
bias at boot time just after the mem check. It will say at the bottom of
the screen what key to hit (del on a lot). When the config screen
comes up find the one to enable disable PnP and change it.

Your command line is an example of that. First, it must be quoted to
prevent the shell from eating it for lunch. Hence,
echo -e hello\012there
will not work, but
echo -e "hello\012there"
will. Second of course the command, in this case "echo", must
recognize the escape sequence. You will find that useful for
commands like sed, grep, tr, etc.

Subject: tranfering boot/root disk to higher capacity format
Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2000 17:00:05 -0700
Okay, this should be simple, but I'm obviously missing something. I've
got a mini-Linux distribution on a single 1.44M floppy and I'd like to
get more space on the diskette to add some additional programs, but
alas, the diskette is nearly full. The obvious solution is to move the
distro to a higher capacity format -- like 1680 or 1722 -- but the
process for doing this seemingly trivial task is eluding me. I've tried
to extract what I need from the Bootdisk-HOWTO but the best I end up
with is a diskette filled with garbage directories and files.
Creating the higher capacity devices and formatting the diskettes is not
the problem; it's transfering the files from the bootdisk to the newly
formatted one so that I end up with another bootdisk is what has me
stymied.
Please show some compassion for this humble neophyte and share what ever
tricks are needed to make this work.
Thanx for any help.

Some of us used SGML ten years ago; yes, indeed, it's hardly
"something new."
The point is that the _hype_ surrounding it is pretty recent.

I am ignorant on many subjects. I now know, however, that Linux is
easier, more dependable, more educational, and funner to use than nt
for building and deploying Oracle web based applications. I get smarter
as I use Linux, when I use nt I get more idiosyncratic.

Understood, the reason I think that it should be added are precisely the
reasons you mentioned for not adding it. :-) I whole-heartedly agree that
it is indeed a subjective question, an entry in the FAQ such as:
"
There really is no 'best' (window manager|distribution), the best one is
the one that works for you. As is usually the case there is no substitute
for experience, although to aid you in you search here are some relevant links:
[ links go here ]
"
or something along those lines. Obviously I did not put real thought into
that, but it should serve to illustrate my thoughts on the matter.
If you would care for some help maintaining the FAQ, I will make the offer.
I assume the tests you speak of are the Mindcraft tests? I am not suggesting
an FAQ entry that ENDORSES any (window manager|distribution), but simply would
point to some relevant comparisons. As the question "What is the best *?" has
been asked so much lately, I wonder if people are not finding relevant information
on their searches. To fix this potential problem I thought a consise entry in the
FAQ could consolidate links to relevant sites.
~~ 2. Even if I were able to pick the "best" of a certain type of

No, thank you for the reply. Understand that I agree on all the points you
make, especially:
"It's a lot more efficient to provide the information so that
someone can make as informed a judgment as possible."
I think that the FAQ would be a good starting point as the question is
asked very frequently. :-)
Thanks Again!

The main advantage of XML is not that it is a human readable ASCII
format. For me the main advantage of working with XML is that there is
a well defined API for working with XML, and there are lots of
implementations of that API on different platforms.
Granted if the data within the XML elements is encrypted you still have
a problem - but at least an XML parser can tell where the element
begins and ends.
The DeCSS case shows how easy it is (technically if not legally) to
break encryption used to lock up data formats.

I'm using Redhat 6.2 and am trying to install the newest RPMs (built for

with Apache and MySQL in regard to needing a few libraries from GLIBC version

If nothing else, I hear SuSe Linux is well suited for what I need to do and
