When you typed the single quote you tell bash that you are starting to type an argument and that characters that normally have special meanings such as *, $, the space, and the carriage return, no longer have those special meanings. Since the carriage return no longer has it's special meaning (to tell bash you are done typing a command) bash just interprets it as one more character to put into that argument. It will stay in this mode until you type another single quote. The single quote retains it's special meaning because otherwise you would have no way to stop typing the argument, the backslash retains it's special meaning in case you have to insert a single quote character into the argument.

Re: swap size
The magic amount of swap is the totaly memory you ever expect to need, minus the amount of physical RAM you have. That's it, really. These 1xRAM, 2xRAM, etc. rules are just vague hand-wavey guidelines. Just guess how much memory you might need and subtract 1G (in your case). Note: some systems mirror the physical RAM in swap, so having less swap than RAM is meaningless and having the same amount is pointless. Linux doesn't do that, so the amount of swap you allocate is added to your total RAM available. Greg --- "With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine.

swap size

Hi all. I apologize for the off topic-ness of the message and the cross-post. I have a friend who has a program she likes (written in BASIC) on an Apple IIe. I have a way to get into the code and list it on the screen. What I am looking for is someone who has had some experience using an Apple IIe who can tell me how I can get the listing to be redirected to the printer port. Also if it is possible to get a copy of the program file onto a disk for an IBM compatible comptuer (Windows or Linux) that would be great.

iportfw vs autofw
hi although its not a major issue i am still curious. I have never, to this day gotten the ipmasqdm module portfw to work on any machines when i self compile the kernel, the rules load, and lists when i tell it to l ist, but it doesn't forward the packets. When i change the rule to use autofw instead it works fine. all the ipmasq modules are loaded: CONFIG_IP_FIREWALL=y # CONFIG_IP_FIREWALL_NETLINK is not set # CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_FWMARK is not set # CONFIG_IP_TRANSPARENT_PROXY is not set CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE=y CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_ICMP=y CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_MOD=y CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPAUTOFW=y CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPPORTFW=y CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_MFW=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTER=y yet it doesn't work. no errors, just sits there. when i nmap the ports it shows the ports that should be forwarded as filtered. I flushed the firewall, and all policys are at ACCEPT and nmap still says those ports are being filtered. I can't find a real difference between portfw and autofw at least as far as my needs are concerned(forwarding a port on the firewall to a machine on the inside). this may become a moot point as i am attempting to configure OpenBSD machines to replace the linux boxen for the firewall machines. but that doesn't stop the curiosity as to why this(portfw) doesn't want to work. The exact same rules on a redhate box work fine(using redhate's default kernel ...) a sample rule /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L real_ip 25 -R 192.168.1.2 25 yes ip forwarding is turned on, if packet forwarding was broken then i think the autofw rule wouldnt work(ipmasq works too) i should mention that the machines behind the firewall are responding on the respected ports. btw, running linux 2.2.17+openwall patch from www.openwall.com/linux + lm_sensors patch from lm-sensors-source package, + ide patch from www.linux-ide.org, and running an updated intel eepro ethernet driver(its a dual port NIC). happens on all other configurations located on other networks as well. any ideas ..? thanks! nate ::: http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 4:58pm up 77 days, 2:16, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00

For the longest time I used to get this mesg when installing certain programs: Warning: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults is a directory that should be a symbolic link.

If you want APT to invoke DPKG with the `--force-overwrite'
option, you have to add the following lines to your
/etc/apt/apt.conf file:
DPkg
{
Options {"--force-overwrite";}
}
Good luck

Re: apt-get libgnomeprint
I had this exact problem about 2 days ago when I installed task-helix-gnome. I cannot remember the exact order I did things in (the task metapackge is REALLY forked at the moment, does everything around the wrong way causing more breaks than I could count at the time) but I think the command dpkg --force-overwrite -i gets around the libgnomeprint issues. Then use dpkg --configure -a to try and get the rest sorted. It will be fussy about which order you install the packages though, but it can work, you just might have to pay close attention to the errors (sometimes one package will say cant do this cause xxx, you just then install xxx and try again).

Re: MegaImage MegaBook 880
Debian doesn't need drivers as such - you will need to know the type of chipset used in each component... for example you need to know that your video card uses a neomagic 256-abc (for example) If you want windows drivers (asking in a linux mailing list is not the most optimal way to answer this kind of question) look at http://www.driverzone.com/ A lot of smaller laptops are just not supported by anyone any more - this is why name-brand laptops are worth more when they're older.

gnome without window manager
Hi! I've just installed helix-gnome in my potato box. The default for the gdm is to boot with helix-gnome running. After typing my username and password I found myself with a helix-gnome desktop without the window manager (sawfish in my case) running! (I cannot take control over any window I open ). But sawfish is already installed and capable of running because if I choose, in the gdm window, the "debian" boot, I end with a desktop running Window Maker (no gnome running) and from it I can change to sawfish without problems. How can I enable sawfish in the gnome boot? Thanks in advance! Marcelo __ Marcelo Chiapparini [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Try a Creative Soundblaster PCI 128 (or 64). I just got the SB 128 for around $25, and all you have to do to get it working is load the es1371 kernel module. That's as easy as it gets. Also the Ensoniq cards are just as easy to set up (and use the same modules, es1370 or es1371), and usually even a bit cheaper. As for "best", though, I suppose the Creative Soundblaster Live! is a bit higher quality, particularly for games that use 3D audio.

any sound card based on the ensoniq chipset is pretty darned easy. the most popular of these cards is the famous creative pci-128. note that pci soundcards in general don't support midi. midi needs to be emulated by something like timidity for pci sound cards. the drivers for these cards is either es1370 or es1371. pete On Fri, 1 Dec 2000, Eileen Orbell wrote: > Date: Fri, 01 Dec 2000 16:23:34 -0500 > From: Eileen Orbell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: debian-user@lists.debian.org > Subject: Sound Card > Resent-Date: Fri, 01 Dec 2000 13:13:42 -0800 > Resent-From: debian-user@lists.debian.org > > Could someone tell me what SOUND CARD would be the best to install on a > Debian Box? > Also the easiest would help.. >

also, /var can have a tendency to fill up rapidly, and if it's on the same partition as / there can be some pretty significant problems cropping up. rick Ethan Benson writes: > On Fri, Dec 01, 2000 at 05:11:13AM -0800, Lazar Fleysher wrote: > > > > Hi Everybody, > > > > This question has been a topic of many discussions but I still do not > > understand the reason why people suggest to have separate partitions of > > /usr > > /usr/local/ > > > > In early days when disks were small, this was the only choise, but now, > > why do not just have a 1 - 2G partition for the system and other > > partitions for other things as needed? > > a seperate partition for /usr/local is useful so you can do a clean > install of the rest of the system without trashing /usr/local, or > mucking with tarring it into /home or such. > > seperating /usr /var /tmp and /home keeps your root filesystem small > and static reducing the chances of it ever becomming corrupted. this > also has security benifits since ordinary users have no write > permission to the root partition any longer (through /tmp /home or > /var) otherwise they could completely fill up the root partition which > tends to cause corruption and other Bad Things. > > speaking from experience having all /var /tmp /home /usr /usr/local > and /var/tmp seperated makes recovering from filesystem corruption > much simpler, if i had gone the MS style `one huge bloated all > encompassing / partition' i would have lost alot of configuration and > user data several times now.

Re: executable compatible with Debian and Redhat?
Thanks to D-Man. I'm enclosing what I got from the gcc.gnu.org website. Yes, RH7.0 is using 2.96 gcc compiler. Not only this may produce incompatible binary codes, it also has trouble working with gdb 5.0. Gdb cannot access locally declared variables in C++ code. I was really scratching my head when I noticed that problem. People would expect stability and high quality from commercial tools and people pay for these features. It's hard to believe Redhat use the unstable gcc 2.96 despite the very warning from the very producer. Jinsong It has come to our attention that some GNU/Linux distributions are currently shipping with ``GCC 2.96''. We would like to point out that GCC 2.96 is not a formal GCC release nor will there ever be such a release. Rather, GCC 2.96 has been the code- name for our development branch that will eventually become GCC 3.0. Current snapshots of GCC, and any version labeled 2.96, produce object files that are not compatible with those produced by either GCC 2.95.2 or the forthcoming GCC 3.0. Therefore, programs built with these snapshots will not be compatible with any official GCC release. Actually, C and Fortran code will probably be compatible, but code in other languages, most notably C++ due to incompatibilities in symbol encoding (``mangling''), the standard library and the application binary interface (ABI), is likely to fail in some way. Static linking against C++ libraries may make a binary more portable, at the cost of increasing file size and memory use. To avoid any confusion, we have bumped the version of our current development branch to GCC 2.97. Please note that both GCC 2.96 and 2.97 are development versions; we do not recommend using them for production purposes. Binaries built using any version of GCC 2.96 or 2.97 will not be portable to systems based on one of our regular releases. If you encounter a bug in a compiler labeled 2.96, we suggest you contact whoever supplied the compiler as we can not support 2.96 versions that were not issued by the GCC team.
Re: Netscape4.75 as root
This is not a flame but it is strongly worded. First of all Why in the world are you trying to run Netscape as root security matters and that is very insecure that is why by default you can not do it. Now seems like you are pretty new so a few security pointers. First of all DO NOT log in as root always login as a user and su or sudo to root. Also I would *never* run X as root you are just asking for problems at that point. And unless the app demands it (and if you are running such a app you should know why and how you are doing it) never run networking apps as root. This is a great big hole and there is no good reason to do it. -- Original Message -- From: Herman Christiani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, 2 Dec 2000 07:31:16 -0800 >Hello, >You wrote: >Hi! > >I don't know why, but I cannot run netscape 4.75 as root.

Also, what's really nice about the kickstart-like utiilities for linux is that if you have a large amount of systems, configured to network by DHCP, you don't even need monitors for the install. It will install the OS and any packages that you need (from a specific host, if needed), without even needing a keyboard. This simplifies setting up beowulf clusters immensely(sp).

You could install xdm. It starts towards the end of the boot process and gives you a graphical login that brings you directly into X.

Hi all
Ok I finally got done with the install of debian 2.2 and now I am trying to get my sea legs after moving from redhat 6.2. Somewhere during the install dpkg segfaulted but it configured the packages it installed and when I ran dselect again it reinstalled the rest (I think). Then I found out I was running short of space so I uninstalled X (I don't need it here anyways). right now I am having an odd problem when I type which "something" it says shell-init: could not get directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: nosuch file or directory Can anybody clue me in as to why it does this? Do I need to install it all over again? Also is there a listserve for debian newbies? -- Tim Uckun Mobile Intelligence Unit. -- "There are some who call me TIM?" --

I must say, scripted installs of OSes are such a great thing, I'm suprised the Linux distributions haven't done similar to this earlier. NT4, while not the greatest operating system, has one saving grace in it's unattended installs run from a boot floppy. You boot from the disk, wait until the files are installing (from network for most installs I've done like this), then take the disk out and walk away. When you return, the install is complete, and you can get about installing software (and rebooting a few times ;o)). I think the package layout of Linux would be ideal for this sort of installation. Especially with the ability to install an OS from an FTP. Of course, it wouldn't be the easiest thing to setup, and like NT4, configuring the unattended install files would take some time and research. But the end result would mean easier installation, if you for example, reinstalled from scratch. If the Debian folks have the inclination to look at this sort of thing, I'm sure it would add so much more to Debian's already great list of benefits to users (especially the corporate ones).

LyX and HTML exports
Hi, I posted a question the other day about exporting HTML from LyX, specifically asking about fixed-width text from the lyxcode environment. I've figured out an answer that worked for me, but it's not perfect. I thought I'd post it here in the absence of other suggestions. It seems that the lyxcode environment, when exported by LyX to LaTeX, and then from LaTeX to HTML through latex2html, gets turned into a definition list. I suppose this is an attempt to make it look correct on the page; I think this is the sort of mistake that separating layout from content was supposed to fix, but there you go. Anyway, if you run latex2html, it generates a style sheet. If you don't need s in any of the rest of your document, you can use that tag to specify a monospaced font, and get the output you intended in the original document. The bibliography is also converted to a definition list, so it looks like hell, but it's still there. Naturally, though, this is an imperfect solution. Any further suggestions on something that I might be overlooking would be more than welcome. Thanks.

Re: hda not recognized during install
First for installation, don't use the ata100 controler to plug in your hard disk, keep up with the good old ide controler. Then you will install your system and then ensure your kernel can load the drivers for the ata100 controler !

I tried to install CUPS this way, but apparently it only has a laserjet and a deskjet driver. Also there are no config questions during package installation. Therefore giving an unusable state.

The 3c575 chipset is different than the 3c59x series. You might have luck with using the kernel-level support with the 3x575_cb.o module from pcmcia-cs, but I wouldn't lay money on it.
