Problems with Majordomo (fwd)

[Craig R. Hodges]

Everything's working . . . except for this! Whenever a user sends to
announce-request subscribe, I get the following error. I've tried
removing the dir to see if it was trying to write a file called announce
but the dir is required in order for Majordomo to have an announce list.
Help! 

Please send any words of wisdom to my e-mail address as well as to
debian-user.

Thanks,
Craig R. Hodges

Gnome missing dependencies

[Craig R. Hodges]

When trying to install (unstable) Gnome using the directions at
http://www.gnome.org/start/getting_debian.shtml
Apt-get reports:

Sorry, but the following packages are broken - this means they have unmet
dependencies:
  gnome-panel: Depends:libghttp1 Depends:libgtop1
  gnome-utils: Depends:libglib1.1.13 Depends:libgnome31
Depends:libgtk1.1.13 Depends:libgtop0

I can't seem to find libghttp1, libglib1.1.13, libgtk1.1.13!

Does anyone know where to find them or a different way to install
gnome-panel and gnome-utils?

Thanks,
Craig R. Hodges

Printer Setup

[Craig R. Hodges]

I have lpd installed on Slink. Does anyone have any suggestions on where
to go from there? Printer setup is new to me. Netscape prints two lines of
jumble and then the printer starts feeding sheets continually. I have an
HP Deskjet 682C (same as 680C).

Thanks,
Craig R. Hodges

Re: Printer Setup

[Craig R. Hodges]

I've installed gs-aladdin, gsfonts, magicfilter from slink.
In Netscape I put for the print command
gs --sModel=unspec --sOutputFile=\|lpr

It'll pop-up a Ghostscript preview window in X and after a couple
minutes (if I'm printing a web page with graphics or instantly if just
text) get a stdout/stderr

Re: Printer Setup

I've done that. Tried using 
gs -sModel=unspec -sOutputFile=\|lpr in Netscape and it begins to
proccess in the GohstScript preview window but gives an error... something
to do with a particular font. I have gsfonts installed and ghostscript is
finding the dir with the fonts. I have default seettings on everything...
straight from the deb.

Re: Printer Setup

That's what it was... magicfilterconfig kept telling me that a printcap
already exists and would exit unless --force. that can be confusing to
someone who knows squat about linux printing.

WP 8 CD Install and Slink

[Craig R. Hodges]

Has anyone been able to install WP8 with Slink (1/24/99) ? I've installed
libc5 from the slink archive and WP8 can't find the libs. The libc5 from
hamm puts the libs in /lib and WP8 finds them but reports segmentation
fault. It also reports segemntation fault in the install script after the
copying is complete but continues anyway. Any ideas?

Re: KDE installation

[Craig R. Hodges]

If the dependecies you're looking for (xlibc6, etc.) aren't new enough
for KDE try looking in ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/frozen . All the
dependencies for KDE should be in dists/(stable or
frozen)/main/binary-(i386 or whatever)/ except for Qt.

KDE 1.0 is, in my opinion, buggy. You may want to upgrade to the latest
version 1.1-pre1 (I think they're coming out with 1.1-pre2 fairly soon).
But if you do that you pretty much need to upgrade to Debian 2.1 (slink)
which is suppose to be named stable this month.

 Sorry that I don't have much for you, since I didn't really have to install

 I did notice that:
 1. You can't install from root.
 2. Make /usr/local/wp
 3. Give yourself permission to rwx the /usr/local/wp dir
 4. Install from your home dir to the /usr/local/wp dir
 5. definitely run install from X
 
 The version has a MS DOS/Win mentality in that it spreads throughout your home

Thanks for your help. The system rebooted and let me in. It looks like the

Netscape4 -- Font Problem

[Craig R. Hodges]

I've installed communicator 4.5 with netscape4_4.0-14 (slink),
xpm4g_3.4j-0.6, and motifnls_2.1-3 (slink). I get the following error mesg
when Netscape loads...

Warning: Cannot convert string
-*-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-*--* to type FontStruct

(then same mesg repeated again)

Netscape does load but it uses a font similar to Window's System for the
menus, menu bar, toolbars, and status bar. According to KDE's Font Manager
I do have -adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p67-iso8859-1
(repeated twice) in the Raw X11 Font List, and I do have xfnt75
(stable) installed.

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help,
Craig

I just noticed that it only does this in KDE! My .xsession-errors has
KCharset: Wrong charset! in it. Time to chuck KDE.

I think this is something buggy in KDE's latest stable dist because it
works fine in icewm. Icewm is okay but I'm looking for a window manager
with some more features. Any sugestions?

Thanks,
Craig

 Here is an example of an old system of mine:
 
 corsica# eximon
 corsica# 
 Exim Monitor version 1.26 (compiled 22-Jul-1997 10:05:59) initializing
 Warning: Cannot convert string -dt-interface

 but it eventually runs eximon ... there are some really broken things in X
 right now that need to be fixed.

Netscape and $XNLSPATH

[Craig R. Hodges]

I just apt-get dist-upgrade to the latest version of slink. When I attempt
to run netscape-comm 4.5 I get the following error:

netscape: locale `C' not supported.
Perhaps the $XNLSPATH environment variable is not set correctly?

Where is the config file fo setting this environment variable and what
should it be set to?

Thanks,
Craig R. Hodges
