Sridhar,
On Tue, 24 Jul 2001 18:40, you manipulated electrons to produce:

************ I got in couldn't see how to add a user/group gave up
and went out and went back and now I can't access it at all. ERROR:
"cannot lock user lib
file/etc/ptmp or etc/gtmp exist"

********* No another new one! :-)
Burning
> software in GNU/Linux is currently designed for functionality
> rather than for user-friendliness. Once you're used to them (it
> shouldn't take long), they are very quick and easy to use. Apps
> like Roxio's Easy CD Creator may be easy for newbies, but they are
> also huge, bloated apps (Easy CD Creator 4 is about 70MB) that are
> actually _less_ functional than their nimble (Gcombust is about
> 700KB) *nix counterparts. For example, my Iomega ZipCD drive (32x
> read, 8x write, 4x rewrite) can burn at a maximum of 2x in Windos
> 98 and 2000 using both Easy CD Creator (which came with the drive)
> and Nero 5. In GNU/Linux, using frontends to cdrecord like
> Gcombust, X-CD-Roast and Gtoaster, I can burn at a full 8x without
> errors.
************** That would be nice. I make an awful lot of coasters
under Doze.
