However, I'm on a dialup line (no DSL yet...) and use IP masquerading, which appears to prevent X clients on my work box from connecting to the X server here at home. If you log in via ssh, then you should be able to start x-applications out-of-the-box. ssh creates a proxy x-server and thus forwards any x-connection through the encrypted connection opened by the masqueraded host. if it does not work, then check, if ForwardX11 yes is in your ~/.ssh/config. if it is, then check, how $DISPLAY is set on the remote machine after ssh-login. it should be something like remotemachine:10.0 - if it is not, then ssh does not forward the x-connections ... don't ask me, why. -- Hi!

kde Window Manager
hello Linux list i am wanting to start kde as my default x-windows manager i am going to edit my ~/.xinitrc with the following exec windowmanager currently set to wmaker what do i specify for KDE?
kde
i am trying to load a deb form of kde i can't get the apt-get tp point to the right directory this is what i am trying to do: These Debian packages should be apt-get'abl using the following/etc/apt/sources.list template. Please note you will need toverify the path. deb ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/packages/debian/potato binary-i386/ where ftp.kde.org is your kde ftp mirror and /pub/kde/stable/packages/debian/potato is the path to the /potato directory(or /slink) for the 1.1.2 KDE tree Basically you want to point to the directory below the binary-xxx dirs foryour distribution. (ie slink or potato)
compiling kde
hello list this is what i am trying to do but a get an error: checking for Xconfigure: error: Can't find X includes. PLease check your installation and add the correct paths! i have x loaded w/ xmaker and blackbox, what package am i missing? 2.5 Compiling from Source Code Generic source gzipped tarballs can be also be downloaded from theFTP Site if you would like to compile KDE on your own. New users should consider sticking to one of the prebuilt binary pacakges. To unpack the tarballs use the command: tar xvzf .tar.gz Change to the directory in which the files were unpacked: cd Configure the package with: ./configure

It is recommended that you make use of the MOZILLA_HOME environment variable in your .cshrc, .profile, or equivalent. MOZILLA_HOME should be set to the directory in which you installed Communicator. For example, 'setenv MOZILLA_HOME /usr/local/netscape'. If you intend to move the 'netscape' binary into another directory (like /usr/local/bin), then you must set MOZILLA_HOME in order for Communicator to find all of its components. (MOZILLA_HOME would be set to the installation directory in this case, NOT the directory in which the binary resides.)
starting x
hello, i am slowly coming along in terms of setting up x. i have gotten past the grey screen w/ an x in the middle, to a purple one with icons in the corner, one w/ a blk/wht moon. another w/ a computer, and another with some kind of graph. As well as an icon in the other corner. my mouse doesn't move and the tab keys don't do anything either. My pointer just sits in the middle of the screen. dmesg reads: Detected PS/2 Mouse Port. i am using the /dev/ttyS01 during config. my systems says ttyS01 at do u think it could be the mouse? Using S3 (86C325) driver and XF86-SVGA server colors look ok any ideas would be appreciated.thankx again debianlist beavis (butthead says hi!)

source for kernel instruction
the directions to compile a new kernel suck! this link has inaccurate information http://www.linuxhelp.net/guides/lyte/kernel.phtml there is no instruction tomake as86 or make install anyone know of a good source for directions to compile and load a new kernel?
kernel success story

compiling new kernel
this is what i am doing: Once that is all done and you choose Exit and save your config file, you must run make dep followed by make clean. And now the fun begins, type make bzImage to build your kernel. This will take awhile (15mins+) so go browse our site a little and send us some feedback ;). Instead of make bzImage, you can also do make zdisk which will write your kernel to a floppy disk instead. Now that it's done, you have to do make modules followed by make modules_install and that should be it for the Kernel if all goes well. Now it's time to set up LILO. First you have to move the newly created Kernel to your /boot directory. Do this by typing cp /usr/src/linux-2.2.x/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.x. Next would be to move the System.map file to your /boot directory. Do that by typing cp /usr/src/linux-2.2.x/System.map /boot/System.map-2.2.x. ..but i get cp: /usr/src/linux-2.2.14/arch/i386/boot/bzImage: No such file or directory any ideas?
