gnome-2.8, evolution-2, and integrated vim
Now that I have gnome-2.8 and evolution-2, working on my unstable/experimental box, I should like to get vim working as the editor in evolution's composer. I have followed the instructions at http://wiki.debian.net/kwiki.cgi?GnomeTwoDotEightFAQ for installing gnome-2.8, and everything works well. I have been longing to use evolution-2, which is supposed to have out-of-the-box support for the integrated use of vim (in the composer). The gnome-vim site, http://www.opensky.ca/gnome-vim/ describes how to get vim working with the older evolution. In the past, I successfully followed the instructions there to patch and build the old evolution to support vim-bonobo from deb http://www.opensky.ca/~jdhildeb/debian/ unstable/ Is there any word on how to do this with evolution-2 and gnome-2.8? -- Thomas E.

mozilla 1.6b with gtk2 and anti-aliasing
Would anyone be able to point me to a deb of the latest mozilla, 1.6b, configured to use gtk2 and anti-aliased page rendering? If not, then I would appreciate any help or pointer to documentation for compiling 1.6b from source so as to achieve the desired effect. The latest mozilla offers a feature that I thought might never come: NTLM authentication. I downloaded the Linux binary from mozilla.org, and I was, for the first time ever, with the new browser able to access my company's main internal Web pages without having first to reboot to MS Windows. This is very exciting news for me. Unfortunately, the display of the downloaded browser is rather ugly. Neither the widget fonts nor the fonts used for page rendering were anti-aliased. I had forgotten how ugly things were in the old days. I did download the source code and compile mozilla, but the configure script failed unless I installed libgtk1.2-dev and, as I then feared, the resultant binary used the old, bitmap-font gtk widgets. No joy. Any help is appreciated. -- Thomas E. Vaughan (303) 939-6386 Ball Aerospace, Boulder
mozilla 1.6b
I am interested in getting an anti-aliased version of Mozilla 1.6b. A pointer either to a deb or to instructions on how to build it myself from some kind soul in the know would be appreciated. The downloadable Linux version from mozilla.org has the great new NTLM authentication that enables me, for the first time ever, to browse my company's internal Web pages from within Debian GNU. I tested it. It works. This is really good news! Unfortunately, the appearance of the downloadable browser is less than appealing. Neither the page text nor the widget text is anti-aliased. I downloaded the source code and compiled Mozilla 1.6b myself. Unfortunately, the configure script required that I install libgtk1.2-dev, and no anti-aliasing joy whatsoever was apparent. I have been assuming that mozilla-1.5 in Debian was using gtk2 for anti-aliased widget text, but now I'm just confused. Any help appreciated. -- Thomas E. Vaughan [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ximiam connector
Is there anyone else out there trying to run Connector on Debian (sid)? Although Ximian strongly discourages a direct download of Connector (because Ximian urges the use of Red Carpet), the binaries are available at http://www.ximian.com/products/connector/download/connector.html. Unfortunately, of course, there is no Debian package at the download site. I purchased last October a license for Connector because, at the time, Debian support was supposedly forthcoming. Although I never have used it, the license that I purchased should still work if only I can figure out how to make one of the RPMs from the Connector download page install properly onto my Debian sid system. I've tried alien on a couple of the packages, but so far, no good. It would be very cool to make this work. -- Thomas E. Vaughan [EMAIL PROTECTED]

mutt-1.3.24-3 complains of read-only /var/mail/foo
A quick search of the debian-devel archive didn't turn up anything about this, but I might have goofed the search. Anyway, mutt-1.3.24-2 works well enough for me, but 1.3.24-3 won't let me modify /var/mail/foo. I just moved from testing to unstable today. Has anyone else seen this? -- Thomas E.

Most likely you installed a package from redhat that is converted with alien. afaik, that's a redhat library, not a part of debian. Hmm. The only Red Hat package that I've messed with is the Voodoo Banshee version of the the XF86_SVGA server, but for it I only used alien to make a tgz file from which I extracted a few files by hand. Nevertheless, I have seen the same link as the original poster. I, too, am curious about the origin of this link, but I am inclined to think that your hypothesis is not most likely the answer. -- Thomas E.
